Prom

Depends on the the type of school you're at, If it's gonna put you in any danger going
with a boy then no.
If your school is pretty chill about these kinda things then go with a boy girl whatever. A lot of people do go to prom alone or with friends, it's not like you need a date.

I didn't go to my year 11 prom because I didn't want to wear a dress, I wouldn't have dared go in a suit or something, because I was extremely shy and closeted at the time. The thought of standing out horrified me.
I regret not going now, and I think you would too.

But now I definatley plan on going to year 13 prom, and I'll definatley take my gf if I have one.

But anyway, like you said, It's three years away! You've got ages to worry about this. You'll be amazed at how much can happen and how much your confidence can grow in three years.

 

The Universe can change quite a bit in three years. Worry about it then.

As for me, I didn't go to my Junior or Senior prom, and I don't regret missing either of them.

 

well I went with my bf but we'd both been out for a while by then. I'd say if you dont have a bd then C, but if you do then talk to him about it first, he might not want to go and be outed that way and so going together might not be a good idea, if thats the case go with other ppl or by yourselves but definately go or you will regret not.

 

(*hug*) Bad luck. But remember that almost everyone is single at 13. So, it's something everyone's been through. You really can't expect a bf at 13, nor would it necessarily be as awesome as you think it would be even if you did have one.

 

I agree with Nevermind and Xequar, soooo much will happen in three years, I wouldn't worry about it at all, just go with the flow and see where you are in three years; it'll be GCSEs and everything

And yeah, depends on the school, if you're likely to get penilised and you/your school can't stand up to it, I woulnd't risk going with a guy, unless you both feel confident that you can defy the odds and hold your heads high, plus it helps if you're both out and accepted!

Don't worry about it now, I'm still single too, but... a lot can happen in three years....

 

My friend works in a recording studio. (He's the guy playing guitar in the Martin birthday video.) He occasionally has to say to bands, "Let's not worry about what to wear to the Grammies until we actually finish recording the song."

Focus on the song, and you can deal with the Grammies when the time comes.

For what it's worth... Three years ago, I would have never dreamed of being with another guy. Three years ago, I was just beginning to finally grapple with accepting that I'm gay.

A lot can happen in three years.

 

Well. If I have a boyfriend when its my prom (this year), i'm not asking him, because i would much prefer go with my best friend who is female. I mean i wouldn't wanna go with my bf due to the fact i know i'd get looks and what not. So i mean i would save our dance for after prom and see him then and like carry it on just with him
Your prom night can still be special, but i say its way better when your spending it with your friends

 

Chances are i wont be going to my junior prom this year and i probably wont end up going to my senior prom next year either

as for you
A) if you have a bf you have no reason not to go
B) Don't go if you know you wont end up regretting it
C) Don't go with a girl unless she knows your not interested in her, like a friend

 

Yeah, I'm jumping on the band wagon a little late, but whatever.

Dude, go, whether or not you have a boyfriend, there's nothing wrong with going alone, or 'stag' as it's called. I had friends who went to Prom alone, if you don't go you'll miss out on a great memory. And when you're like, sixty, you'll regret it.

 

You're welcome. And remember, when you're at Prom, have a kick butt time .

 

If you're not sure how it will be received by the school body, but you still want to ask him to prom, I think your best idea is to go with friends. People go to prom in groups all teh time, especially those without dates. It's not looked down on or anything. Then you could both go together and nobody will ask questions. Now if you two start dancing together, people might start to wonder, but it's your call.

 

I'm going to prom with my best friend and she knows that I'm gay and we think of each other as brother and sister so there's no chance of her having feelings for me or me for her. I only wonder what other people will be like because they will no doubt say that my friend and I should dance because we would make a cute couple; when most people meet us they ask us if we're related first, then if we're going out, then when we say no, they tell us that we should go out becuase we're perfect for ach other. The only reason that could be an issue is if people are talking about my friend and I at the after party at her house and her dad overhears because he doesnt want her to have a boyfriend and Im not out to him.

I would say just concentrate on other things for now because like other people have said, three years is a long time. I would say that you should go becuase prom is a different experiece and you shouldnt miss it, even if you go by yourself. I would say that if you wanted to go with someone, it would be best to go with a friend that knows you're only friends. That way you can have a good time and not worry about how people will treat you and your date.

Oh and dont sweat being single. I'm 16 and I've never had a boyfriend, or a girlfriend for that matter. I know it's lonely, but dont dwell on it. Just enjoy being yourself, enjoy being single. Make new friends if you're really lonely, I know that it might not be what you want, but friendships usually last longer than relationships so it would probably be good for you.

 

I never went to my prom :eusa_danc
