Worst Prom Ever Stories

Buzzfeed asked readers for Prom Nightmare stories. A few – and these are horrible!

– After prom, my boyfriend drove me home and I told him I loved him, which we had been saying for months, and he responded “I wish I felt the same,” and then I started crying and then he started crying and then he left.

– My junior prom we went to a Hibachi style restaurant and I order sushi since I thought it would be easier to eat and not get on my dress. Little did I know that this sushi would give me food poisoning and cause me to have explosive diarrhea in the limo on the way to prom…In the end my dress was ruined and limo smelt terrible.

– I wore a horrible dress that was too big, and when I got too enthusiastic while dancing, my boobs would pop out. My dress was a criss-cross back number, so I couldn’t wear a bra for modesty purposes.

– I found out my boyfriend of 4 years had another girlfriend on the side about a week before prom. He dumped me for her and I was left with no one to go to prom with. He ended up taking me anyway but she called every 10 minutes to make sure we weren’t standing too close to one another.

– My date left without telling me. He had called his mom to pick him up while I was dancing with my friends. Towards the end of the night, I had my friends and school staff searching for him because he wasn’t answering his cell phone. Twenty minutes later his mom finally picks up his phone and informs me that she picked him up. Worst. Date. Ever.

– That was the night I realized I didn’t have any friends in high school. I spent $200 on a dress and spent all day getting my hair and nails and makeup done just to attempt to dance by myself and then sit at a table by myself and then go to the school hosted post prom party, again by myself, showing up 45 minutes before anyone else because I didn’t have anyone’s house to go to where I could change out of my dress. I would have just gone home but I didn’t want my mom to see how much of a social pariah I was.
