I'm a junior in high school, but I've never had a boyfriend, first kiss, etc. Don't laugh...
Next year I'll be going to prom and I really want to go. I'm upset that I probably won't have a date. Is it really essential to have one? I haven't heard of a person not going without a date.
Please don't be rude when replying. Thanks for the help!

Nothing to laugh at, it's a serious concern, I respect that.
Remember, it's a year away, there is A LOT of time to do something about it.
While you may get a BF in that time, you may not. If not, are there any guy-friends that you can go with? I bet that would take A LOT of the pressure off and there would not be those stupid expectations that you'll sleep with them. I bet if you hooked up with a nice guy-friend, you BOTH would have a great time.
I recently replied to a prom question, and let me share in part here what I posted there: Prom, while a nice event, is a small item in the scheme of life. You'll soom be on to college and you'll see that things will change, I'm sure for the better.
I didn't care for high school when I was in it...all the stupid politics and head games...I was really glad when I got to college, and things only got better from there. Years later now, I still feel the same. I bet things will be the same for you...life will just get better. Please, look at things in perspective...I promise everything will work out.

You are in the age you want to have new experiences. Maybe you are shy, you can try to be more open.Maybe you can obtain advice from a friend with boyfriend. Having friends is good because you break isolation and maybe one of your best friends could be your boyfriend some day. On the other hand the feeling of identity could be stronger with friends in comparison with your fathers. For improve your talk I strong recomen read at least one page daily of what ever you want in loud voice, that would help your to talk better. Some guys fell atraction for girls that seem diferent in personality, it would help if you smile more. Maybe you could feel diferent if you dress diferent, it is not a mistake wear jeans but sometimes you could use a skirt; you know, litle things, details. Love is great but the most important thing is your own sake, welfare, health. If you find someone that seems irresistible, think a litle at least: "Is that what i am looking for?" "Maybe is not the chosen one but I want to try" Just thing a litle bit. Maybe you could fell hurrry but there is always a twin soul for everybody. Just be yourself, shine like you are "with your true colors" like Cindi Lauper saids. Just try to be the best person you can be ( not the best person in the world this is too complicated) and overflow this in a natural way you will be loved. There is nothing to be ashamed is normal to feel sometimes like a person moving to a diferent house. Dont be afraid at your age you can experience, learn by trial and error.Dont be sad, cause the things arrive in the appropiate moment and the "beautifull rain falls from the black clouds" (Poem of Persia)
Forgive my poor english

you may't in any respect tell at the same time as your era is gonna hit particularly that you're on the abnormal cycle. basically carry some tampons or a pad and basically pray you get it after your prom! sturdy success on prom evening!

well if its not until next year, don't worry about it. until then, get involved with sports and clubs and whatnot and get your name around and make new friends so that you seem more appealing to those. Maybe you haven't have a boyfriend, first kiss, etc. because you are shy or reserved and they don't exactly notice you. guys in high school look for girls that other people want to, mainly to cause envy among their fellow classmates. Just be yourself out loud. dont be so refined and reserved. get yourself out there!
