I'm a junior in high school so this was my first year I could go to prom. No one ended up asking me to prom, but I wasn't that upset about that because 1) I understood I could go to prom with friends and still have a good time and 2) I was 99% sure I wouldn't get asked anyway. However, turns out all of my friends decided to go with other groups so I couldn't go to prom even if I wanted to, and that really hurt me; it made me feel like a nobody with no friends. And what made me most frustrated was the fact that even though my friends knew I wasn't going to prom they would always talk about it during Lunch at school, and it felt like they were rubbing it in my face (by the way I had asked them if I could go with any of their groups and all of them said their groups were too full). Now it's prom night and every time I go on Facebook I see a prom picture and it makes me feel like a complete loser.
Am I overreacting? Is prom really that big of a deal?
