Okay, so I'm having a bit of trouble with prom date stuff. Today, a boy asked me to my senior prom. This boy is nice, but he's kind of really weird. Its sweet and I'm flattered and all and he's really nice to me and we are actually family friends but... I just didn't picture myself ever going with him. The boy that asked me is kind of a big loser at school. That sounds awful to say. I'm really not a mean person. However it's kind of true. Also, he's like 3 inches shorter than me (and I'm average, if not on the short side for a girl) he twitches in class, he kind of picks at his skin, he kind of has a lot of acne, glasses, and like super super skinny. He's not that attractive and he's just kind of overall known as annoying. Also, he's really not friends with my friends and everyone is like "really, you're going with him?".
I haven't given him an answer yet. I don't know what to do. Like I said, he is a nice guy, and Id say we are friends, and If I saw him there, I would totally say hi but... I just don't really want to go with him as my date. Also, there was someone else I kind of wanted to ask. But I feel really bad, and my family thinks I should go with him because if I don't "it would really hurt his feelings". We are also family friends (my younger siblings are friends with his little brother), and I have a lot of classes with him and now it's really awkward for me. I am really not a mean person and I feel really mean saying all this. I just... feel weird going with him. I mean, its my senior prom. Ugh. Please help. What should I say to him when I see him (in 2 days. He actually sits next to me in math class!) Thank you.
