Maybe is it a good idea if you go with a group of people. You don't have to have a date to have a good time at a dance. Besides after your date sees that you are going with a group then when you get to the dance you can dance with the guy that you want. Oh and as for a guy not asking you because you are new...why don't you just ask someone. Don't be afraid, just do it.

I would talk to your dad ahead of time to know exactly what he expects to happen if you do get asked to the formal. Try to be reasonable and don't get angry if he refuses to let you go with a boy. If you are mature about it maybe you can ask if the boy can come over early and meet him, have pictures done at your house and then go to the dance. Make sure dad knows that you will return home right after the dance and it shouldn't be a problem...but if it is, remember there's always next year.
I couldn't date until I was 16 either, but someone asked me out when I was 15. i approached my parents about it maturely and they let me go out with him...

This is the easiest decision you'll ever have to make in life. I have three daughters so I understand your dad's position. And if he has established 16 as your dating age, worrying about any of that stuff at 15 is pointless...because it's not going to happen. It's not nearly as harsh as it seems. You're practically breathing on the finish line, and all of these worries await you in the not-too-distant future, to be solved by your own ingenuity. But for now, enjoy the fact that there are limits to how complicated life is allowed to get for you; your dad loves you very much. (Ask him if he'd be open to allowing you to go to the formal and joining the young gentleman there. A school-sanctioned, chaperoned affair may meet with his approval). Good luck.

i think if someone asks you to the winter formal then say you will meet him there and if your dad asks why you want to go then tell him your going to meet some girl friends and if you dont go then ask some girl friends if you can hang out with them at the dance
well GOOG LUCK WISH YOU THE BEST!

If a guy asks you...just accept and then tell him you'll meet him there...jsut be honest and say that your Dad wont let you drive with a guy till you are 16...

I wouldn't worry about it you are very young and have a lot of life ahead of you. Just be thankful your dad is protective because he loves you.

He's not overprotective. He's just being a good parent. I know you cannot see that now, however, to him, you're still his little girl. Give the old man some time to adjust, and try not to slam him behind his back too much.
