My parents told me about how when they were in school the single and gay kids had to form fake couples to attend prom because everyone was required to have a opposite-gender date. All of the fake couples split the moment they got in the door and passed the requirements and that was at least as far as the farce had to go.

I didn't attent my prom when I was in highschool. My girlfriend at the time couldn't make it and I didn't have any other friends right then so I knew it would be boring and I honestly don't regret it at all
