A thread for us old-timers.

Do you remember the girl you took to prom? did you go? where is the girl you took now?

Anyone marry a high school sweetheart?

As for me. I took a 22 year old to prom when i went. I don't know where she is or what she is doing now. :)

Meh, I didn't go.. I don't really much care as I didn't like anyone at the high school, I didn't even like any girls at the time... it was blah.

agreed. Maybe she is just pissed because no one has asked her yet.

I took someone that was a pretty good friend. We ended up fooling around and I never called her again afterwards. It was kind of awkwards. I see her around sometimes but I just act like I don't know her. We were good friends too but ended up doing stuff we shouldn't have. That pretty much ruined everything. She's a nurse and has a kid now. I dunno if she's married.

Yes. That's her defense mechanism in case no one asked her.

hahah, well a year or 2 ago (i am only 21) i could have. but in high school (3-4 years ago) i wasn't interesting anyone at all that i could think of.. it was really just a stupid time.

Never went - I sais something in march, even before I had any idea who my date was going to be, then it came back and bit me in the ass a week before prom - too damn late to do anything - I had the tux and the tickets already :(

its been 5 years since senior prom. believe it or not, Im still good friends with the girl i took to highschool prom. she's a year younger and went to another university and is now graduating.

i enjoyed her company at the prom, but at that time i was stupid and really liked this other girl. now after several years of talking to my prom date online and on the phone, Ive grown to have quite a fondness for her.

there were times when i was real crazy about her too...and thats ridiculous because there was absolutely no physical interaction. (long distance remember?) i think i fell in love with her personality, and her intellect, and i never knew that was possible.

it wasnt that fun all those years. the more i was attached to her, the more I felt pain. the yearning of having physical contact was at times unbearable. On top of that, i was the guy she went to when she had boyfriend troubles...for all her boyfriends during college.

well..i rode it out eventually. it took a few girls on my part to realize that there were alot of other amazing women out there.

well..as luck will have it, she will most likely be getting a job in my city after she graduates this year. i see a long road of unknown joys and pain ahead.

it looks like fate really does bring people together.

My youngest brother in law is going to his I think either this or next weekend.
Me and my wife never went to ours. I was more interested in eeproms than proms at the time. :p
