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!!)

Ok...well why don't you just ask your dad to re-schedule his dinner...tell him its important to you to go and tell him that you really like someone and want to go with them. If he doesnt understand then...i dunno what to do

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.
<p>
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.
<p>
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. ;)

Personally I would go to your dad's dinner. That's a pretty big deal, and it would nice to have his daughter there to support him.
There will be plently of other dances to go to. They all seem like a blur after highschool is over anyway. If the boy you like asks you to go, graciously decline and tell him you have a family obligation to attend, but you would love to go with him for the next school dance.

I would go to the semi formal for a little and then be a little late for your dads dinner..he should understand..tell him that you missed the last years and its not fair! hope i helped..rate me =)

Oooh, that be not good. I'd say go to the dinner, wait till the speech is over to not be rude, and wait till its like half over. Then go to the formal.

Your dad doesn't win every year, does he? Unless it's your senior year, I say go with your father. If it IS your senior year, dad will understand.

If this guy you like winds up asking you to the dance say well I really like you and want to go with me, but my dad is having a dinner for being employee of the year. Ask you parents if he can go with you and if they say yes ask him to tag along and afterwards if their is still time left during the dance go there.

GO TO YOUR FORMAL LEAVE AND THEN GO TO HALF OF YOUR DADS THINGY
]
Explain to the guy that asked you to the semi formal the importance of the evening for your Dad and then ask the guy if he would be okay with attending both events with you. Your Dad should be very pleased that you understand the need to be there for him and show him your support. Besides, who cares if you get to the semi late. Nothing that you can't miss hardly ever happens at the beginning of an event.
So, you make an appearance with your family at your Dad's dinner and maybe you eat there too (which saves your date some $$) and then you head off to the dance from there. I hope it works out for you. Best of luck.
Kind wishes,

tell padre that this is really REALLY important to you, and he's going to be winning tons and tons of awards for the rest of his life and you'll go to all of those dinners. ;-D

i think that you should definately go to your dad's thing because it's very important to him. tell the guy that you like that you can save a special day for the two of you. go out to dinner. even better ask your dad if he can tag along with you guys. if not then ask your dad if he can come over or something for a nice dinner or you two go out to dinner together but you should definately go to your dad's dinner
]
wait until the guy asks you to make ur decision. if he asks you talk to your dad about it. tell him its very important to you. get him a gift for winning the employee thingie. that will make him feel better
hope i helped

You sahould go to your father's dinner. He is your father, and will always be your father. He is more important than a high school boy. However, there are alternatives that you can take if you like this boy so much. You can explain to him that you can't go to the semi because fo your dad's dinner, but that you would like to see him on a date some time. Or, you could possibly even take him to your father's dinner! But either way, don't ditch your father. He won Employee of the Year, which is probably very hard to earn, and you should be there to support him in his achievement.

I think the best way to do this is...try to split your time. i know it sounds hard, and you might not want to do this, but it sounds like the only way that you wont be dissapointed about one or the other. Maybe you could come to your dads dinner for some time, and then you could leave and got to you semi formal since those things usually last until late. That way if u can make both, everyone will be somewhat happy and hopefully everything will work out great!..hope i helped..xoxo kara
