[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He felt obliged to say yes. He has a crush on her cuter friend, a girl he runs a student club with. My opinion is the girl he has a crush on is NOT into him, otherwise she wouldn't have permitted her less attractive friend to ask him. Right or wrong?

Note: Girl he has a crush on did not take a date to the dance (many kids went without dates).[/quote]

This is not a marriage. This is a school dance. There will be many such dances and there is no reason to complicate it with thinking that some "attraction" has to be involved.

My DD went to many such dances during her HS years.  All except her prom she went without a date, AND she always went with a BIG group of her classmates.  Some in the group were with dates and many others were not.  A lovely time was had  by all.   Parents hosted the pre-dance parties for all these kids in their home.  Parents helped with food, photos, corsages and with carpools.  None of her peers had to miss out on the fun of going to a dance and no one had to go through the anxiety of asking someone else to be their date for the prom.

Do not make it a drama.  Butt out from your son's life.  It is slightly creepy that you are so invested in who he likes etc. [/quote]
