My Boyfriend doesn't want to go to my Prom


Question Posted Friday July 22 2011, 1:26 am

This coming school year will be my senior year. My boyfriend graduated this past school year. We live in two different states and have just recently been allowed to visit each other. Last school year we agreed that due to the fact that I couldn't go to my junior prom with him that I wouldn't go and since it was his senior year he could decide whether or not he wanted to go. He decided that he wasn't going to go and promised that we would go to MY senior prom together. Now, with senior year approaching he has said flat out that he doesn't want to go to my senior prom, because he "wasn't allowed" to go to his. I really want to go but I have no idea how to convince him?

I'm not sure how the whole prom thing works nowadays but I do remember back in the day we had to pay for prom tickets and they weren't cheap...If this is the case your boyfriend should give you the respect to ride it out and go.


I don't know the entire situation between you and your boyfriend but from the sound of it he just simply isn't interested in going to the prom. Maybe this guy just isn't the prom type, Maybe he doesn't know how to dance etc. Even so these are poor excuses as it is only one night and a night you will remember. I really don't think his parents would tell him he wasn't allowed to go to the prom with you, That is a special night and normally any parent would understand that. Sounds to me that maybe this guy just really isn't the one for you. Relationships come with sacrifices we don't always want to make that's just the way it goes it's not a one sided thing and he just don't seem to see it that way. Don't let his choices stop you from having a good time, You don't need a date to have fun at a prom. Go with a few good friends and enjoy the evening.

Okaay. So i don't know you, but I say you deserve better than that. For starters, you deserve a guy that you can trust and believe, and that won't break his promises to you. It was his decision not to go to his senior prom, and he shouldn't be holding it against you, cause a guy should never take revenge like that. Talk it through, and remind him that it was not you stopping him from going, but himself. Don't blame him, just tell him how you feel, and let him know that senior prom for a girl is a night that you will always remember, and you don't wanna just skip it. Let him know that he means a lot to you and you would like him to be there with you in a night as important as this one. If this conversation doesn't go well, then show him you are not dependent on him and go anyways. With a guy friend, some other guy, or maybe even just your friends. Life is to short to be anything but happy. Good Luck!

Not to be rude but you guys might not last fforever that is just how life works. If you want to go its your choice, just like you gave hm a choice. He should respect that this is your last year and you want to do it big. If he doesn't understand then maybe you have to talk about something more than just prom. You don't have to go with a guy just your friends. Hoped I helped.

Tell him it was his choice not to go and tell him that if he don't want to go with you then you'll find someone who will, someone whom will love you and be honest.
