I got asked to prom.
Well, it's just Pride Prom. And I'm going with a friend. And we had previously talked about going together.
But still.
Even though we're just friends, and knew we were going together, the effort he put into asking me was really nice, especially considering my whole prom situation last year.
Last year I went to prom alone. When bringing a date really wasn't working out, I convinced myself that I was a strong independent woman who didn't need an escort. And I had an awesome time at prom with my friends. But I can't pretend that being the only one without a date didn't hurt my self esteem. Because when all my plans to have a date kept falling apart, it really sucked. And that sounds like a stupid thing to complain about, but at the time I felt bad.
I didn't intend for this to be a rant, but that's how it turned out. Oops.
I just wanted to say it was nice to finally be asked to prom.
