whoa...35 dollars???? Our homecoming is only 5 dollars and prom only 15!!!!!!! And I spend about 30 for a dress and that's it. My friends and do each other's hair and we don't even care about our nails. As for purses we just use the same one over again or borrow.

our homecomming is about $15 a couple and junior prom is $80 a couple and senior prom is $200 a couple...going single is just half the price of couple

when you go to these (in my point of view) really expensive dances is almost kind of an unwritten rule that you need a date??? Here Homecoming is just a semi-formal fling where you just go with all of your friends and only people already in a couple go together. Prom there was a lot of people with out dates (most girls because the guys in my grade were stupid and asked all the sophomores to prom instead of their junior friends who were girls too) but there was a kind of rush and tears shed to find a date (arrrggghhh)...honestly I don't think it really should have mattered about dates but it was one of those society say so kind of things so everyone when on a rampage trying to find a date. what do you guys think???

Well Meg, I see what your saying about not having a date, a lot of girls at my new highschool go without dates, but at my old highschool it was unheard of. Personally, I wont go to a dance without a date, but that's just me. I think that there is a lot of unecessary pomp and circumstance surrounding dances like these, and its really kind of annoying... Also, at my dances, its like all the guys are afraid to dance, I just dont get it, they will slow dance and thats it! Ugh, its very frustrating!

I havent been to prom yet, then agian im a sophmore. Ive only been to post prom. Prom is only for jrs and seniors, and ppl who get invited to it who are sophmores and freshmen. last year, a bunch of my friends went with junior boys and stuff....

this year my goal is to have a real date for prom. Last year my friend took me on a whim because i was one of three girls in my HUGE group of friends who didn't have a date. It was a spur of the moment thing so he didn't have a tux or anything, and I know that is superfical but I kinda wanted one of those cheesy prom pictures with the guy in a tux and the girl in the too fluffy dress with bad hair...the one that looks good now but is embarrassing in 20 years!

We had a Junior prom so I already went to mine with an impromtu friend-date, so I am going to find a date and just crash the Junior prom anyways...for awhile I already had a date because I had been dating a Junior but (nervous laughter) oh well not any more...i'll find some one...

I think taht all girls want the cheezy picture her date in a tux and poofy dress and bad hair (I know I do!) I think that it makes up for all the cr*p you have to go through before hand!

some guys just don't really like to dance....
i think itz mostly girls who go stag b/c it's like an unwritten rule that it should be guys who should be the "ask-ers". but then there are girls who ask guys to prom...but not as much as the other way around...

I am just admitting, im not a "dancing" type of guy, but when i want to i do

yeah boys are the askers and that get frustrating because you have to sit around and wait...I waited too long for a certain boy to ask me and well. while I was waiting another girl asked him and they went to prom together, so by then it was too late so I had to ask my friend (who wasn't planning on going after being turned down by another girl) to take me...so I guess I am one of those girl askers but it gets rather frustrating because no one wants to ask you to prom and you are sick of waiting around.

I think its a lot easier dancing at clubs when its darker...hehe. Then no one can really see you.
