Question Posted Tuesday November 29 2005, 5:57 pm

every year our school's 7th graders throw a formal dance for the 8th graders. i am totally against going because i hate dresses and can't dance. all of my friends that were totally against it are suddenly going and renting a limo and everything. they are even having a sleepover and a whole day to get ready for it. i don't want to go but they are pressuring me so much to go. what should i do??? the guy i really like will be there but i am 100% against stuff like this. should i give in? can you give me some tips on how to stay strong under pressure?? thanks...i'll rate high!

i think you should go! it's something new for you, and who knows maybe you'll enjoy it! just have a fun night with your friends. if you get there and you hate it, you can just say you want to leave or you don't feel good or something. but just try it!

Hi. Ok, I think you should just listen to your heart, instead of what they want you to do. If you really don't want to go, tell them you don't. Try to explain it to them. If they're good friends, they'll understand. If you have the slightest doubt in your mind that you really shouldn't go, then don't. But on the other hand, taking chances makes life interesting. Who knows what might happen. Something good might happen with you and your crush, and you'll be glad you went. To stay strong, my best advice is to just be yourself, completetly. No matter what. You can never go wrong with being yourself, no matter how weird or normal you are. People would respect you more. Also, don't take it so seriously. Just focus on having a good time. Don't think about your flaws or your mistakes. The only person that'll be spending so much time thinking about it is you. Everyone else is there for the same reason: to have fun. So just be yourself, and you'll be ok. :)

Whoa they are renting a limo to go to an 8th grade formal!?! If you don't want to go you don't have to. If you have never really been to a formal dance maybe you should go, afterall you never know until you try. But if you have your heart set on not going then explain that you dont want to go or tell your friends you are grounded

i think you should go because you never know when you'll miss out..i knoe it isnt reall your thing but if your crush sees you there and you look gorgeous you never know :P anyway that is just my opinion when i talk to ppl that dont go to formals they usually regret it! have some fun dont let this oppritunity blow by you! you only live once!
