I was out of the house. We'd been back for 20 minutes...I get out of the house during the day for that reason. Left at 8:30 (after an argument with my mother which she has since gotten over...I'm the favorite person at the moment...), came back at 9:15 to change, left 10 minutes later, came back at 3:50 to change again...and left again 10 minutes later. And got home after midnight.

As far as a boyfriend goes...well, I'm not rushing to find one just for the sake of having one. I've never had one (I had other things I was worried about in high school, even though I kept getting flirted with and asked out, I also never went to school dances including prom...) and that's okay with me. Just haven't met the right guy yet. Besides, all of my friends are single, so we can do stuff together
I never went to my prom because I ended up on crutches a couple days before, and I didn't want to be just sitting there while everyone else was having fun. From what I've heard, proms here are never really that fun. Just a day to get dressed up and spend money, neither of which trip my trigger too much.

Honey there's nothing wrong with waiting. You actually sound a lot like me.

I too, did not attend school dances or my prom.

I dated one guy before hubby. A "nice church boy" who wouldn't keep his hands off of me. Gave him one last warning, then dumped him.

Although I had known M. from school (before I switched high schools), it wasn't until we were working together at a pizza joint that we finally hooked up. We dated for 7 1/2 years before getting married. Not saying we were perfect, but we never lived together, despite me having my own place for 7 of those years. It was very important to my dad that we not dishonour God by blatantly living together. So, we didn't. No regrets.

When you meet the right guy, you'll know. In the meantime, consider group dating. A whole bunch of us used to go out after church on Fridays and Sundays. None of us were officially paired off, but there was mild flirtation and lots of laughs. Also, you can't get into too much trouble with a dozen or so other kids from Youth Group along.

My son is going to his tomorrow.

You know - in his funeral suit; his new swag shirt, tie, and pocket square; and apparently his new leather Nike high tops.

I was just the anti-senior who didn't want to spend any money. I never went to prom, never got a class ring, never bought a yearbook, never did Senior week, never did a gradation party, and would have skipped graduation if I thought I could get away with it. The most I did was get a graduation pin in Disneyland and a graduation Mickey plush (because I've always wanted one) along with a necklace.

I just remembered this when I read you and your husband dated for 7 1/2 years before you got married. My grandparents on my mom's side dated for one month before my grandpa proposed. They were happily married for their entire lives. That just amazes me.

I didn't like spending money as a high schooler either. I didn't get a class ring (most people don't where I live), I got a yearbook only because my wonderful parents paid for them, and I never had a true graduation party. My parents asked if I wanted a party, or if I would rather take a trip to WDW. Of course I chose WDW, so that was my present/party. We did have a family get together for my cousin and I who were both graduating the same year - he didn't have a party, either.

What do you mean by Senior Week? The closest thing I can think of that would relate to that would be Homecoming Week where there was a theme for each day that the entire school could participate in (dress up, etc). Every year there would be a pajama/toga day. Freshmen, sophomores, and juniors did pajamas, and seniors did togas.

The only problem with group dating is that all of my friends are from my religious group, and there just aren't young guys within our age group in this general area (and yes, I'd want to stay within my religious group). My one friend doesn't even want to date. Bestie doesn't either. I (reluctantly) go to get-togethers where young people from the same religion but different congregations also go, but none of them have really turned my interest. Hey, I'm only 19; I've got time.
