Think of it as practice for your wedding one day (to whomever). It's a day about her. You man up, you go, and you make sure you have fun, and make sure she feels special.

Sorry it's not the answer you wanted, but trust me it's the right one, and you'll be glad one day.

Prom is very important to girls and if you basically say she can't go because she'll be the one who's boyfriend doesn't even care enough about her to put up with 3 hours of something he doesn't enjoy... she's going to be gutted.

Either.

Stop being a sulky boy and do something nice for your girlfriend rather than only doing what you want to do all the time, which is just selfish.

OR.

Tell her that you aren't going because you are a selfish immature sulky boy and that she is free to find some other boy to take her, and hold her close and kiss her and do all the other stuff that she might have wanted to do after prom. It'll be her gain and your loss.

In relationships you do things that you don't really enjoy to make your partner happy, this is because you care about them and WANT to make them happy.

I'm 25 and going to a tacky "back to school" night with a load of drunk middle aged men next month because my husband has to go and I will go with him and then he can relax, not feel bad, and have a great time.

Good Luck!! xx
