>>116524862Never even crossed my mind. I was not the one to go to prom. Had no girl who would go with me unless it was a pity thing. We didn't really have mean girls but they stuck to their cliques. One of the girls being nice suggested I go stag and that a lot of people do it, but you might as well have asked me to join the football team as a walk-on. I would have stayed by the snack table surveying the scene and desperately avoiding being asked on the dancefloor where I would surely get hit with anxiety of people looking and laughing like a soldier avoids bullets.
Was at the mall with my family either the night of or the night after and one of my teachers spotted me and did the whole, "HEY WHY WEREN'T YOU THERE?!" thing. Aw well you know, I was busy. Oh well.
Still a virgin 15 years later.The hardest part is knowing that if I could do all again tomorrow, knowing what I know now, I wouldn't be so scared, I'd ask one of the shy but cute girls to go or at least allow someone to ask for me, I'd be more able to crack jokes with the more popular people, I could even fake my way through dancing and not feel like the whole room was waiting for me to look stupid.
But if it was 18 year old me again, it'd just go the exact same way.
