Don’t wait until all the good people are taken! The time to start looking for a prom date is long before the big day.
You Will Need
- Assertiveness
- An open mind
- A thick skin
Step 1: Spread the word
Let loved ones know you’re in the market for a prom date. You never know who might have a cute cousin or hot step-sibling stashed away somewhere.
Step 2: Take inventory
Break out your yearbook and take inventory of all the eligible people you already know.
Don’t assume anyone is out of your league; sometimes the hottest contenders don’t get asked out because everyone is afraid of being shot down.
Step 3: Put yourself out there
Attend any and every event you can in the weeks and months leading up to the prom – you never know whom you might meet.
Step 4: Ask a celebrity
Ask a celebrity—you never know, they just might say yes. Rapper Ludacris and country music singer Chely Wright both attended proms with fans who simply wrote to them and asked!
It helps if you have a sob story, like your house was buried by an avalanche and going to see the celeb’s movie was the first thing that made you smile in weeks.
Step 5: Consider other grades
Consider asking someone in a lower grade who otherwise wouldn’t be able to attend. Many are eager to brag to their friends that they’re going to the prom with someone older.
Step 6: Go with a friend
Go with a friend—or a group of friends—in the same position. You’ll probably end up having more fun than all those uptight couples anyway.
According to a recent Seventeen magazine survey, girls spend an average of $833 on their prom dress, shoes, and accessories.
