Q

My semi formal is the same night as my Dad's dinner for winning employee of the year. I didnt go to my semi formal last year and a boy that I really like might ask me to the semi.. What do you guys think I should do? ( They're at the same times too!!)

A

Talk to your dad about it; explain what's important to you about both, tell him you're feeling a bit conflicted, and ask for some real honest advice.

It's likely you two can come to some sort of compromise -- if you don't go to your dad's dinner, you can arrange to spend a one-on-one later, or do a family celebration, which IMO would be a lot warmer and more enjoyable.

Otherwise, if you don't go to your semi formal, you could make a statement to your schoolmates that you're waiting for the full formal / prom / whatever, and that you don't have patience for anything second rate. ;)
