My prom date was a boy who I had met the summer before at Warped Tour. We stayed in touch through our Live Journals and one day I asked him over MSN. Prom was actually the second time we had seen each other. The night ended with a romp in a cemetery and lots of drugs. I wore a witchy dress and he wore a black suit with Chuck Taylors. We dated off and on for 5 years and he broke my heart over and over including cheating on me while I was in the hospital with 2nd degree burns. I hope he has plantar facititis now from those chucks.

I am still obsessed with my dress from junior prom. It was so beautiful, and that night was so wasted on a boy who showed up 45 minutes late in jeans and a t-shirt and later refused to dance with me. Senior prom was slightly less traumatic.

My crush broke my heart, so I ended up taking my manager from Pizza Hut to prom. He's a really great guy because it was purely platonic and we just had a great night with zero expectations. He's about a full foot taller than me though, so it was a very awkward evening physically.

We went for mozzarella sticks and then did prom. He gave me expensive earrings despite the fact that I didn’t have pierced ears and it was a bit much. I should have gone stag. That was senior prom. I went to junior prom with a pompous fool who I cut out of all of my prom pictures after he dumped me that summer via letter.

bobyn - you look adorable! And my DH is 15 inches taller than me, so every photo we have looks a lot that. I mean, minus the amazing rainbow feathered background you guys have going on.

My senior prom: I had a massive crush on my friend (aka "Date"). I asked him, he said yes. Around the same time, some mutual friends of ours break up, but decide to still go to prom together. A little while later, after a group movie night at my house, Date tells me he and Girl Friend are now dating, but neither of them want to break their prom dates with me or Guy Friend. (Guy Friend and I are very close friends but had zero interest in going to prom together.)
So basically I went to senior prom with someone else's boyfriend. It was weird and disappointing. I looked freaking awesome, though.
PDQ.

I went to prom with my bf at the time. I am 5 feet tall. He was 6’6”. Lol I used to only date guys that were 6’+. I have no idea why. Anyway I was super sick with a cold. Our prom was at the Roosevelt hotel in manhattan. The food at prom sucked so we got into our limo afterwards and went to McDonald’s in our dresses and tuxes. Then we wandered through the village for awhile. We then went home. We were tired, I was sick and we didn’t want to stay out too late. We went to six flags the next morning.

i went to senior prom as a freshman and sophomore with guy friends. Skipped my junior prom than was asked by a guy for senior prom as friends. we were pretty close and he had just broken up with a long term girlfriend. Found out 2 weeks before prom, dress already purchased, that they got back together and were going to prom. So i attended an epic prom party at a disney hotel and they tried to come but were asked to leave.

I would never in a million years share a picture here of what I looked like in high school, it was that embarrassing. I couldn't imagine what it would take to get me to do it.

I have a friend, who I rarely see anymore (it's ok, we've grown apart and live kinda far from each other) who still has the Kate Gosselin haircut. It's troubling.
