So, as everyone obviously knows, LastRomantic’s 2007 Junior Promenade ball is coming up, and he needs to make it memorable, both for him, and his date (a rather foxy girl who shall be known as just… ¥. )
He has already asked her (in a rather boring way, may I add: just some roses and ambushing her at school… zzz…), so all we can do is give him suggestions in ways to both enjoy himself, stay true to his Starcraft roots, and make his date… happy…
We have already determined she is wearing a silver-black dress. However, nothing else has been determined for him. Corsage color, limo type, condom flavo(oh never mind) need to be decided. You can see he is already fretting about this due to his hairstyle pleas (he won’t bleach his hair, so no mimicking reach -_-. Suggestions relating to this would be greatly appreciated by him.
Not only this, but he needs to know the exact moves to pull of during the event (and possibly after?) After much joking about matters such as ultras in nydus canals, ect., we have decided he will kongdance in order to try and impress her (imo, this will not work.) What is the best way to impress his date at such an event?
Then again, I do not know the average slickness/suavity of the Tl community yet…

She sounds quite materialistic so i'll give you my personal example from prom and who i deal with these types.
1) First thing you need to is completely blow her away AND her friends. I was valedictorian at my highschool and when all of a sudden i started getting more attention from girls because of it i picked the hottest snobbiest rich girl i could (long story behind it...).
Anyways, my uncle is a helicopter pilot and im like "hey uncle rick,...wanna pick me and my date up for prom?". So i tell her ill pick her ill be there with the limo at 7pm. I arrive fashionably late @ 7:10 700ft off the ground and land in her back yard (ranch style). Her dad and her come out in utter shock and i pull out "they over booked on limos so i got this instead". That basically sealed the deal right there We had our prom at this big hall a little out of town so we land there and basically the entire graduting class sees us fly. This was one of the most egocentric events of my life but if you want this girl bad enough anything goes. Battle tank, Ferrari Enzo, whatever - It's the first impression that will set the mood for the rest of the night
2) Confidence - Once you're "in" you need to read if she's digging you or not (how long till your prom cause that will play into it). If she is, and you've blown her off her feet then back off a big so she doesn't think she's fucking Queen Elizabeth and mingle a bit without her. Let her come find you. When she does your pretty much good for the night as long as you dont ask her about her thoughts on PvZ imba (i tried it...doesn't work well -_-)
I'll ask some of my girlfriends tm morning about the corsage. Kinda depends on the girl and the dress (strape/less, gown etc) but ill get back to you

Good advice! A small issue, though, is she doesn't go to his school. Essentially he's going to be the only one she knows there, so it's less pleasing her friends, and more making sure she's entertained, as when you don't know anyone there, it's extremely easy to get bored.
Hm, At first her conditions for going to prom were along the lines of a helicopter. But I guess Romantic is just too sexy to be rejected when he actually asks...
ehe, thing is, she's from older group of friends. not just hot chick out of nowhere. also does not go to school where prom is being held, so not too many of her friends are going? impress is good, but its different story with longtime friend than with random person
also, LR.... improve your way of speaking. You need a suave-not-corny voice! sorry to say, you do not possess one.

Man, I wish you were my prom date.
Anyway, here's some advice.
SHE IS GOING TO CHOOSE CORSAGE. This is one of those things that is the women's call. How are you supposed to choose corsage when you dont' know what will go with her dress? Ask her to figure out what color/flower, even if you're the one who's actually running to the flower shop.
And try to be a gentleman. Act like you're a European noble. Make sure she has a good time. Laugh and smile. Make sure you know how to dance - you don't need to bust out Napoleon Dynamite, but make sure you look comfortable on the dance floor.
Hmm... for some reason it just seems wrong if she chooses it, yet you have to give it to her as a gift at the event. I understand her choosing the color, as she knows her dress color the best, but I don't think she chooses the exact corsage.
get a matching corsage, etc. that's all up to her.
but in all honesty prom is really overexagerrated (sp?); i.e. some people take it much too seriously. just be yourself, dance with her and have a good time. don't set out with a goal of trying to impress her, unless you know for sure it will work.
of course this is just from my prom experiences, where i just went and danced with girls and had a good time. no crazy helicopter shit for me.

It was a good read and all, that must have been the raddest prom ever!.
Actually, what me, my friends, and our dates will do this year for prom we all dress up and the us guys will tell the girls that we would go to some fancy resturaunt, so instead we go to chucky cheese! If you are the same as every other guy, their night will not be as memoriable. So, do something crazy and they will remember it. We all had a blast. It was awesome.
You also have to realize that if your school is located wherever there is a wave of poppy trends (aka hip hop music is cool there), the dancing will mostly consist of grinding. It's very possible that, you may embarrass yourself in front of others + your date if you look stupid while grinding. I was up in Berkeley a while back and was at this small on-campus clubbing event or something of the like, and really I don't know where you're from and I'll probably get lashed out at, but kids in norcal are pretty strange dancers yo~. There was this one guy next to me "grinding" on this girl but what it involved was a stationary, single-movement, red-bull-induced jack-hammer-like motion that did not match the rhythm at all whatsoever. Do not be this person. It will be to your disadvantage if you don't listen to that sorta music (such as I). Your prom may really only have like 3 slowdances tbh.
Prom kinda blew for me in that regard because I was foolish to think that it would be unlike all the other high school dances (but it's the same only in a bigger, better venue). Renting expensive ass tux, limo, overpriced tickets, etc. just so you can get on a shitty dancefloor and get sweaty to music that won't be popular in another 2 months. Bleh, you'll realize later that clubbing is much better than hs dances because it's the same thing only 1/500th as cheap and higher success rate.
p.s. do you have any intentions of getting laid after prom? If no, is it because she is a. a prude, or b. you're scared/nervous/etc. If that's the case, then tell us and TL.net will probably be able to help you much more. It'll help more than posting reach pictures all over this thread~~

Unless you plan on getting laid that night, prom is pretty over-rated imo. There is absolutely not need to fret over it. Just have a good time, meaning be yourself, and try to enjoy yourself as much as possible. Heck, I haven't talked to my prom-date ever since I got into university (she's a year younger than me) and found a girlfriend.
High school romances rarely work out anyway.

Ok I just read this:

no intention of getting laid =.= because... no? :O

Then what do you want from this... if you say "nothing", why would you be nervous...
Unless you want to start something with the girl afterwards...

eh? did I say I was nervous somewhere?
Wait, what's the difference between "no intention" and "don't want to"
If she threw herself on you...would you still 'intend' not to get laid? Or would you say "NO MEANS NO! I SHALL NOT RELINQUISH MY V-CARD YOU RAMBUNCTIOUS HARLOT!"
How can you know whether you want to have sex with a person or not until you know
-Their religion, and respective piety -Their family and family history -Their socio-economic class -Their artistic and literary talents -Their sensitivity, romanticism and sentimentalism -Their patriotism, provincialism, and rootedness in their native culture -Their cooking, cleaning and other domestic abilities -Their mental and emotional stability -Their historical attitude and preferences regarding bourgeois family life -Their racial origins (if not already clear) -Their feminine virtues (virginity, modesty, etc)
The above listed constitute 95% of the qualifications for any marriable and therefore layable girl.

Ask her all of these questions over the course of the night...sure-fire winning solution to get her laid.
