15/f i'm a freshman at my middle school and we have our big holiday formal dance this friday. i excited about it but also a little sad becaues i don't have a date. all of the three years i've been in my middle school i've never had a date to the formal. why is this? it makes me sad sometimes because a lot of the other girls have dates even if their not going out with the guy.
either how can i get a date by friday. or how can i stop getting so upset about this? thanks!

Sometimes really great gals get past up because of shyness, so take a chance and see what happens. Make it casual and go as friends. This will be less intimidating for everyone. The point is to go and have fun. Lots of people like to go as a group of friends and forego the whole pressure of having to show up as couples only. Find some guys and gals that want to go as friends or start asking some cute guys to go! Whatever happens, you need to keep trying. [ BitsandPieces's advice column | Ask BitsandPieces A Question ]
