How is the prom experience for everyone? (lemm.ee)

It's definitely hard to miss all the people where I live pulling out of driveways in dresses and people taking pictures across all the public areas, it really lets you know it's prom time.

What's your experience with prom (or multiple proms if you went to others too)? How did everyone look? How was it celebrated? Was it good?

I didn't go, I didn't see the point in it. People always ask if I regret not going: not even a little bit. I don't like dancing and thought the entire idea of it dumb to begin with. Also, I'd rather not go broke over one night like that. I did have a few friends go and they said they had fun, good for them. It's just not my thing.

I don't blame you. I didn't not enjoy the ones I went to (one for my best friends, one for their friends, one that was mine, and one technical prom attendance in the new area I'm in), but I wouldn't have missed them if I didn't go. I even virtually got kicked out of my own because I didn't have a prom date and went with my brother, and I guess that rubbed people the wrong way. It's just one of those "I did it to say I did it" things.
