Of course! It will be a night that you won't forget, so go all out for it. If I were you I would be getting prepared right about now. So enjoy that night and be safe. Oh yeah it will help you be prepared for your senior prom, too.

If you have any guys that are good friends and don't have dates as of yet ask them.  I went to prom one year with a good friend of mine after we both had just gotten out of relationships and her and I had the best time of everyone there I think.  Good Luck!!!

you don't need a date to go to prom. If you don't want to go alone, go with a group or friends (what i did the 2nd time i went, the 1st i had a date). Or go with a female friend that also has no date. But like i said, you don't need a date to go to prom. GO!!! HAVE FUN!!!!!! DANCE!!!!!! ;D

be front about it, if its to hard, try it over the phone instead of in person. or be romantic about it. my current boyfriend started things up with me by asking me to prom. in each class that i went to during the course of the day, he left an envelope with some cut up pieces of paper. at the end of the day, i put the pieces of paper together, and it turns out it was a puzzle, which read "will you go to prom with me?" and on the envelope it said to meet him at a certain time, so i did, with my own envelope with a puzzled 'yes' in it. it was really sweet.

hey! i just finished my sophmore year. so it's fresh in my mind. \n\nit's almost like freshman year, but you'll probably (depending on your school's curiculum) have more classes with upperclassmean, which is a great opportunity to make new friends. a great way to make high school in general better, get involved in a club, sport, activity that you like or are interested. if there isn't one you know of that you like, go to a club that one of your friends goes to. having someone there you know will make you more comfortable. don't be afraid to try new things!\n\nhaving something besides schoolwork to focus on while at school (for example i'm on drumline), like a club, will give you a more positive idea about being there. some of the best memories of high school i have so far are of me and my friends hanging out in the empty school during drumline practices. \n\ni hope that helps some! don't worry too much and have fun.

going to the prom is not as important as ur future , coz right now ur future lies in what studies ur going to do. u r being indecisive if u don't know which college u want to go, try to gather information, it is crucial for ur life.

be front about it, and get the ball rolling. if its to hard, try it over the phone instead of in person. or be romantic about it. my current boyfriend started things up with me by asking me to prom. in each class that i went to during the course of the day, he left an envelope with some cut up pieces of paper. at the end of the day, i put the pieces of paper together, and it turns out it was a puzzle, which read "will you go to prom with me?" and on the envelope it said to meet him at a certain time, so i did, with my own envelope with a puzzled 'yes' in it. it was really sweet. of course, in your situation, mold it so that the envelopes follow his daily schedule.

If there is a post prom at your school I would recommend going. I went in high school and had a blast and won money also. If your school does not have a post prom maybe have a party at your house with a couple of friends or plan a romantic candlelight dinner for just you and your boyfriend. Curl up on the couch and watch movies.

Honestly, this situation sounds rhetorical in that her parents have enough control to not allow her to go to a prom but not enough control to prevent her from moving out while still in high school. In any case, my suggestion is to be her friend and let her know precisely how you feel about the situation but that you will still support her, right or wrong, as long as she is willing to accept ALL the consequences of her actions.

been there, done that.  have you walked around the house in your dress yet?  give it a go.  Look in the mirror as much as you want, gain some confidence, practice walking in your high heels.  I know this sounds funny, but it will help you feel a bit more comfortable by tomorrow.  As far as the prom goes, just about everyone that is not a cheerleader or ballplayer (or people of that status) are going to be nervous, so just know that you are not alone. All eyes may be on you...and who knows, you just might attract the attention of someone you want....

I remember my prom.\nIt was fun.\n\nBut I spent about $500 on a dress and other things, and I had an even more fun time at a party a year later when I was in college - and everything was FREE!\n\nUnless, it's your wedding, there's no need for any hype for any kind of party.  It's just a huge, expensive party, and after the after-prom-party, it's OVA!

i say go and ask her. prom doesn't always have to be some crazy romantic event. i went with my bf but before he was my bf he was my best friend. we had a blast because we were friends first there wasn't pressure to "do things" or stupid stuff like that. i think if you go with ur best friend, ull have a great time!

I don't get it.  I see it as an excuse to be extravagant, ride around town in a limo, dress up, and have another social event with a bunch of people from school, many of whom you probably don't like.  I went to a concert on my senior prom night.  It was much more enjoyable (and cheaper) than any school event would've been, and I had the pleasure of chuckling at some dressed-up high schoolers standing outside in the rain as I drove by.  If you're not interested, don't bother with prom - it's a waste of your time and money.

If the race for Valedictorian is all you care about, go to the new school. If it's your life you care about, stay. But if you go to the new school and dedicate your life to this race, you'd better make darn sure you win.

Sorry about your prom, dear, but there will never be a time when our young men aren't serving their country in another part of the globe. That's what we DO. It's our job. it isn't always pretty, but it's always the truth. We are useless at home. We have no purpose at home. Our job is simply to defend and uphold the constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. But I really do hate that your guy might miss your prom. I missed my girl's prom back before you were born, and I've always hated letting her down. It will bother him as much as it does you, and probably for a lot longer. But remember he's doing what he has too, not what he wants too. I'm sure if he had a choice, he'd be dancing with his girl, not laying on a cot staring at your picture.
