I was out with a friend eating at the local 24-hour burger joint and a slew of after-prom kids came in (the women, among whom, looked absolutely astounding). For a few moments there, I was really saddend... I am a Freshmen in college and I didn't go to either of my proms.

All of a sudden I feel like I missed out on something really special.

:(

To some people, prom is a once in a lifetime experience.. whether a bad or good experience, it's still something you should do while in high school IMO..

It's just like any other dance. The dj plays the usual whatevers popular on the radio music and the food sucks, the only thing different is that you are paying like 5x more.

I agree. Doing a Prom when you're 34 years old is guaranteed to raise a few eyebrows at the Tuxedo Rental Place.

Yeah, that's what I am afraid of.

To those who questioned my virginity: No. Although it's none of your business - it's irrelevant to this. Are you so emassculated that you associate sex with sadness? That's even more pathetic than my position.

Would that position be bent over in front of a guy named Bubba? :Q

In case you haven't noticed, whiny-teen-prom-type-angst is directly associated with virginity.

Dude, You're still young enough you could take a girl to HER prom and enjoy the spectacle.
Not quite YOUR prom, but close!

I didn't go to my prom when I was in HS and I don't think there was a college prom.

why get dressed up to spend the evening with a bunch of people I only pretended to like? Tickets were expensive for what you get. A crappy meal in a rented room of some sort. Gee I can get a 10X better meal at 1/4 the cost and dressing up in a rented tux is optional.

I didn't go for that reason and others.. but I'm wondering if it might have been worth it.

FATBABY hit it right on the head; essentially, you're not missing much. Overpriced food and a date that thinks you're made of money.

I went to a HS that was a 20-minute drive from the beach. In my school, the Prom Tradition was to do the prom, go out on the town and somehow wind up on the beach. You would spend the night on the beach, getting drunk, having sex with your date.

Then, the next morning, after singing songs and doing acts of superhuman sexual strenght, everyone meets up at the local diner for breakfast. Whatever.

My prom night (I DID get laid, though!!!! Mike always gets a piece, dammit! :D)

1. Go to prom (already spent like $200 on the limo, $100 on the tux and $20 on the corsage)
2. Go out on town (another $200 real quick)
3. Go to beach....uh no...it was hella cold out there!!!!! Ditch rest of gang...go to the NoTell Motel w/date. Do the nasty. Three times (I was 17....i miss my libido)
4. Take her directly home after that b/c neither one of us could keep our eyes open, see straight or remember what the hell just happened. Also, neither one of us had our "own place" You don't become cool until after you're an adult and can afford your own damn place!! :cool:
5. In bed in Mommy's house and asleep by about 0700 hours.

And your Prom?

Well did you ever go to homecoming? That was one of the reasons I didn't go to prom. Homecoming just made my wallet a couple hundred dollars lighter - money I didn't have to begin with. I didn't get a damn thing out of that night (emotionally I mean. I'm not talking about getting laid or anything) and quite frankly I probably would have preferred staying home and playing Quake2 online or something

Is it all to just get laid though. No guys here actually want a relationship.. they just want sex?

Don't get me wrong - I want the sex as much as any other guy, but I wouldn't mind waking up with her in my arms the morning after - knowing I get to spend my time with her.
