Will it be devastating if I don't go to prom?


Question Posted Sunday January 18 2009, 12:58 pm

So... about senior prom. Will it be DEVASTATING if I don't go? My friends are really cynical about it and don't want to go, and no - I won't be able to convince them to go. My best friend is setting it up. She has to go. I could go with her... but I don't really know the other friends that she would be hanging out with.

The thing is - I don't really want or NEED to go. But I just don't want to go and have an awkward time because I feel like I'm OBLIGATED to go. Is prom really that big of a deal?

Did you go to junior prom? I felt that it was better than senior prom. The fun thing about senior prom is going with a good friend or a date and arriving in a limo but there's not much after that. Just some boring dancing and maybe good food. If there is a post-prom, go to that. It's fun - there are games and you win prizes.

If i were you i'd go. You might look back 20 years later and wish you went and you can't take it back. You can go, and hate it and leave... But you cant turn around the next day and decide to go...

Going to prom really isn't such a big thing. I don't plan on going, although everything about prom is nice. The place they set it up, the hours, and if you have lots of friends it can be more fun. If you want memories of how crazy you were at prom, go right ahead lol but no it really isnt a big deal to miss it ...

It's a once and a lifetime thing so i would not miss it. People who haven't gone said they have regretted it big time because that was supposed to be a really big expierience. You will have more fun than you think. Hope this helps!

just go, its one of those once in a lifetime things. people are gonna ask you about it, it will come up for the rest of your life and you want to say you have experienced it. i would say its a pretty big deal. you can always leave early but i'm pretty sure you'll end up having fun between the actual pro and after prom party
