Huh, not sure what to do.

I would go.....

Better to regret something you have done than something you haven't. If you didn't go, you would spend forever wondering how good/how much fun/how bad it was.

IMHO

i agree,not sure where in the world you live but judging by american movies and stuff..."prom" is blown waaaaay outa proportion.(we just call it the matric dance) where i live(south africa) its really not that big a deal.i didnt even go to mine.i went to the one for the matric(senior) year before mine cause most of my friends were in that year. anyway,if people from other colleges are allowed and it'll be a group of your friends then i definately think you should go! especially if you'll be unhappy if you dont and i agree with Kimmi namaste

go ahead and go. it wont be "weird."

Go. It will be fun!

totally go for it! when i was a senior lots of my friends had older boyfriends or boyfriends that went to a different school, and they call came to the prom. no big deal! prom is kinda conformist but i don't care- i had a blast and you will too

thanks guys, I'm just feeling nervous about it. And I don't want to regret not going, especially since I know people who do

Prom gets a little blown out of proportion but I do think it'd be fun

you should go i understand being nervous i didnt go 2 any bc i dropped out i was weird in school i just didnt see the purpose in spending so much money on a dress id wear once around ppl i didnt like i didnt get along with ppl and i didnt know how 2 sew real well otherwise i coulda made my own dress but u got a bunch of ppl 2 go with so

Hi Kirsten. I think it would be fun. We didn't have prom at my school. I left my school, moved away to college and then left the area totally so lost contact with all my friends. It's only in my 40's and after my daughter having prom that I realised there was no defining moment that I could say 'that's a door closing on a part of my life'. It's almost like a right of passage to be treated like an adult and marks the life change. I would go if I were you. Sounds like there will be people around you who will be supportive. Your friend doesn't want you to miss out.

You will have memories when you are older to look back on and everyone there is going there to have fun, just avoid anyone who may give you bad vibes. You've been out in the real world for a while now so you have built up life skills they might not have while they have been studying. If anyone makes you feel uncomfortable just say 'Education only tells you how to spell experience'.

Go, have a brilliant time

I would say go. Try not to think of it as prom, try to think of it as a good night out with your group of friends if you still fel weird about it.
But like you said, you're mates are bringing complete strangers, at least you USED to go there!!

Besides you may regret not going, missing out on going to the "prom". It's made a bit of a big thing in America, its better to regret going then to regret not going.

I bought my ticket I'm going to go, I'm nervous but I just don't want to regret not going. (Plus its not costing me much, I found a dress that was $150 off. It needed minor repairs)

Thanks you guys, I really do think it'd be a mistake to not go

Please post a picture later of you in your dress at the prom....have a wonderful time

I'm the friend she's talking about, and I'm really glad you guys gave her such good answers. You also know most of the people in the group(more than I do anyways xD)

Have fun! and make sure you post pictures!!!!!! When is it?

YOU GO, CUTIE! can't wait to see the pics!!!!
