Sad for my dd

[peggyfromwastate]

She is going to homecoming, bought her ticket, had a plan to meet with some friends to get ready and to go together. These aren't her best friends, but most of her close friends are not going or are going with boyfriends. Anyway, these girls decided to pull bs today, say they didn't think they were going to dd while tweeting about getting ready. Sigh.

So she's going anyway. Alone. Screw them right. I have to drive her there. I'm so nervous for her. She says once she's in there it's fine- everyone just dances in a big group. It's not like the formal setting if my old homecoming dance I guess.

Anyway her school is filled with petty and immature people. She's already bored of that scene. If we could move tomorrow she would be glad to go.

I hope she finds some friends at the dance. I just keep thinking of pretty in pink and how she went to prom alone!! If you are over 35 you'll know what I'm talking about lol.

Your daughter is so strong. I'm under 35 and fully get the pretty in pink reference. Those girls are jerks. I hope she goes and has an excellent time. Let us know how it goes.

That does suck for her but good for her for going anyway, I hope she has fun.

I just dropped her off... So hard! Last year she went with 4 friends and they all had a great time.

Update: She just texted me that she found some friends.

I really hope she has fun. Definitely a disappointment about the other girls.

[L.Jane]

Yay... I am glad she found some friends. I remember going to those things and while everyone danced, even those that came as couples still hung out with everyone else. Your daughter is one awesome lady for having the maturity to know she could go alone and still have a great time.

Man I hate girls...good for your daughter! You should be proud!

WTH? I'm glad your dd has the sense to go anyway and not let those girls bring her down. That must have been so hard to take those first few steps in alone, your dd has such a dignity about her. Poor girl, she deserves much better. You should be very proud of her.

Funny, that never ends. The same thing happened to me a few years ago when I was over 30. There was an annual holiday party that I always went to with my "friends." They said they weren't going so I went with another group of friends. They were surprised to see me there. Then, I met an interesting guy there and one of my "friends" promptly hooked up with him. They were making out in front of everyone in the place. I marched up to my "friend," tapped her on the shoulder, and told he "I just wanted to say good-bye" and left the party. I never spoke to those friends again and my life was only improved by severing that relationship. Wish I'd learned that when I was your DD's age.

Your DD rocks! I'm glad she went and is having fun!

Your daughter is so strong. I'm under 35 and fully get the pretty in pink reference. Those girls are jerks. I hope she goes and has an excellent time. Let us know how it goes.

It speaks so much to her character that she said she still wanted to go. Screw those stupid, petty girls. GO K!!!!
