Thinking back on my high school prom

One of my favorite bloggers, the TaxGirl, asked about high school prom experiences, and I had so much fun reminiscing that I knew I had to share with everyone who doesn’t read tax blogs. I only wish I had a photo. It’s probably time to get my old photos scanned and uploaded:

I took my best friend to my junior prom instead of my girlfriend. We’d already agreed to go before I got into a relationship. The girlfriend wasn’t too bitter, and we did go the next year.

But it turned out that my best friend was actually gay and was going to the prom with me to dance with her girlfriend, who nobody knew about.

I still think it’s funny that I never noticed what was going on. Is it typical teenage male for me not to notice something so obvious in someone I cared so much about?

Either way, the best friend is still my best friend, but I haven’t talked to the love interest in years.

What do you think? Was I being a typical male?

Do you have a prom story?
