NSFW (if you want)- What did you do on Prom night?

I danced, made out with my new girlfriend in front of half my (rather prudish) graduating class, won two separate raffles, watched a hypnotist, and was driven around by a chauffeur. No sex (she was a really new girlfriend), no drinking, no police involvement—but an awful lot of fun.

Well the girl I took to the prom never gave me the money for her ticket as she promised. I danced somewhat inappropriately with a music teacher I always liked. I didn’t call my boyfriend at the time who got mad so I spent the rest of the night trying to chase him in Brooklyn and then at his mom’s house. Should have spent the night with the music teacher instead.

I didn’t go to prom… my bro had to be rushed to the ER. So, my girlfriend at the time went without me only to cheat on me. And then has the tenacity to ask me for a ride home after her date dumps her and as a thank you gives me head. Next time I’m at school I’m informed that I was cuckolded and I proceed to dump the bitch.

I went to a school for ‘bad’ kids. We didn’t do silly shit like proms.

Hmm, the date got drunk, I drove him home in his car, and some friends drove me home from his house. We weren’t dating, so it wasn’t an issue, as nothing NSFW was going to happen anyway. At the last high school reunion (20 years), we privately joked about it. Too bad I don’t have immediate access to a scanner, as I’m at Mom’s house and just ran across a photo from that night.

@Pied_Pfeffer It is fine to send it to me whenever you get the chance.

I went to the zoo. That’s not a euphemism. I went with a friend and then we ordered pizza and watched movies. Judging by the photos that were posted online the next morning, I didn’t miss much.

I went to Dairy Queen with the church youth group so I could hang out with the “love of my life”, who I recently learned is gay. Wish he would have told me that when I was 15.

Let’s see, on prom night I weighed 74 pounds and had tubes sticking out of my arm. I was sick as fuck and hooked up to a pump providing intravenous nutrition 24/7 but goddamnit I wanted to go to my prom. I was lucky the dress I bought several months prior while 20 pounds heavier still sort of fit. I was exhausted to the point of trembling before the parents even got done taking photographs. Then my parents, bless them, drove me there and, in the car, did the procedure to disconnect the IV pump so I was free for two hours. I couldn’t eat anything because I was taking everything by IV at the time. I did manage to briefly hit the dance floor. I had a good time, it’s just a surreal memory now. Not your average prom story but I didn’t have average high school years.

@Mariah When you get to legal drinking age, I will take you to crash a prom anytime you ask.

Went with my boyfriend to dinner, then the prom dance, then back to his place I think? Not sure. I don’t remember. Not because I was drunk, I didn’t drink anything. Just because it wasn’t that big of a deal for me.

I was a total geek in high school. Despised by bullies around the world. I didn’t go to the prom.

I’ll tell you once i’ve had mine :)

um. which one. ha.
my sophmore year, I went with a senior who happened to be my friend, but was also sort of a shit head. Im Probably the one of only females from my highschool to turn that kid down. Multiple times hah,. I mean it was ok. went out to eat before. ended up leaving with him but then getting dropped off at some party. .. Really. I don’t remember too much of that night not because I was drunk. but because it was just eh.

Junior year I said fuck prom I’m not going. and. then I ended up going to three. I went to one of my bestfriends, and that was fun we just killed it on the dance floor all night, one with a guy that I had an on again off again thing with forever. His school had this really weird setup – there was food dancing and .bowling? Dont have any outstanding recollection of that either. I also went to my own school’s prom with the guy I refer to know as “the one that got away”. Thats a whole unneccassry long story that would boreanyone who doesn’t know me to tears so I wil leave it at that. Ate italian food before, danced alot, hung out alot- that was a good night overall. I remember later eating english muffins at my best friends house- her mom just kept cooking them for us .

My senior year I went to my other friends prom with her, another one of her girl friends and our guy friend, same story danced blahblahblah. Also went to my senior prom with my best guy friend. we actually were voted “best buds” ha. that was great. real fun night – typical out to eat with a buncha people,danced alot. hard core danced, in realllly high heels. just kicked it.

moral of the story. I think proms are sort of weird in the sense that everyone goes out to eat before – like we’re carb loading for the huge dance party ahead ha or maybe that’s because I didn’t consider prom a “date date” type thing. Just because I went with the dude didnt mean I wanted to date him or jump his bones or whatever. Anyway, its sorta nuts how much money is spent on limos dresses, hair,suits,tickets etc, overratted in my opinion especially because I can go to clubs- for free now and dance all I want, but the 10 percent girly girl in me liked getting all dazzled up. Still glad I went to all of em, experiences ya’ know. and if you read my whole response hooray and goddamn youre patient because this is the length of a published short story. And no I did not proof read it. haha

I dropped out by then. On the time I would have went to prom were I still in school, I think I was playing Final Fantasy IX and trying to get all the chocographs.

@Symbeline , hopefully you beat it.

@boxer3 Oh I beat the game alright. Also found all the chocographs, Found Hades and beat Ozma. Not all in that same night though. XD

@Symbeline well. sounds more successful than all of the proms I some how wound up going to.

Sigh….that was a night to remember. I didn’t have a lot of money and the hand-me-down suit I wore was stellar (thank God) and the corsage for my date wiped me out of spending money but I was able to make a night of it by bumming a ride for us with my friend in his Mustang. ½ way through the dance we both admitted this was not our cup of tea and went outside and huddled under a door way until the rain stopped and then took off our shoes slow danced in the puddles of the parking lot until our ride found us…..

Junior prom, went to a super nice restaurant with the most beautiful woman, ever. Her name is Dena, and I’ve been trying to get in contact with her but no one knows where she is. We did the whole dancing thing, then a lot of us went to a hotel party and just drank and acted crazy.

Senior prom, I went with a woman I messed around with. We went to Red Lobster with her friend who didn’t have a date, so that was awkward. Then we did the whole dancing thing, we left after a half hour to go to a house party.

I also went to another prom with a woman from the next high school over shortly after that lol. That night was uneventful, though.

We had dinner at the Palmer House hotel in Chicago. My date was a last minute arrangement because my college student boyfriend had to go home and couldn’t go to my high school prom. After the dance, we drove around until sunrise. No drinking. Stupid people. I couldn’t wait. I was bored stiff and wanted to go home.

I went with my girlfriend who I had been with for almost two years at the time. We danced a bit and tried to avoid our exes (who cheated on us and started dating each other). After it was all said and done, we went back to her car (I didn’t drive because she hated my driving) and I shyly changed back into my regular clothes and she did the same. We drove back to her house and laid down on her couch to watch a movie, and she asked me for the millionth time when I’d be ready to lose my virginity. I was just too nervous, and it wouldn’t happen until I was 20, long after this girl and I had broken up.

*Sigh. My prom was really more sad than exciting. Little virginal me was pretty cute, though, I guess.

@Fiddle_Playing_Creole_Bastard . what a good picture.
sorry for sad proms :[

I went to my junior prom with this girl I dated very briefly. I remember little about it except we had rented an antique town care (instead of the standard limo), which was kind of cool.

I then went to the senior prom of a girl I worked with (she liked me, but we were basically friends). This prom was a blast as we went with a group of friends. Lots of dancing and a limo ride to the beach afterward. At the end of the night, I kissed my date for the first time annnnnnndddd…I suddenly started seeing her as more than a friend.

We went to my senior prom a year later as a couple and twenty-three years later, she’s asleep; snoring next to me as I type.

I went to see Sunset Boulevard at the theatre. I had every intention to go to the prom and even had a date lined up but my dad bought me tickets for the show without realising that it was the same night as the prom. I would rather go to the theatre than do most other things (note: I said most) and so chose to do that instead. I felt a bit bad whe I told my date though, he was a realy nice guy.

I had a really good time at the prom. Had a nice dinner before. Nice slow dances, danced with a few friends.Then at the after prom party had to rescue a friend that drank too much and took her home. While I was gone my date got hammered and had sex with five different guys. I din’t get any. Ahhh good times.

@Imadethisupwithnoforethought Haha! Nice! ;)

@Adirondackwannabe Jesus Christ. What a night you had. :O

@boxer3, no worries!

@cprevite that’s awesome!

@Fiddle_Playing_Creole_Bastard: Thanks Fiddle. If only I could still fit into the tux. :^)

Glad you like my Jr prom story. Sr prom was also fun. Went with a friend that was on a break from her boyfriend. Prom was good,after prom party was going well. We went on a beer run together. She saw her boyfriend in town holding hands with a girl. It was my sister.
