Who says you need a date to enjoy prom? While many teens go all out with elaborate promposals, one high school senior has taken the crown for the most creative self-invite to prom. Meet Ava Thompson, a senior at a small private school who decided to ask herself to prom after realizing she wouldn’t be able to attend the event at her district high school.
“I attend a really tight-knit private school that doesn’t hold a prom,” Ava explained in an interview. “I was really looking forward to going to the prom at my district school because that’s where most of my friends are. But when I found out ticket sales had closed, I was bummed.”
When no one stepped up to ask her, Ava took it upon herself to create a memorable promposal experience. “I figured just because I wasn’t officially invited didn’t mean I had to miss out on the fun of asking someone to prom!” With her mom behind the camera and some clever photo editing, Ava crafted her own promposal, sharing the delightful photos on Instagram and Twitter.
Ava acknowledges the fun of promposals but emphasizes that their true purpose is about having a good time with friends, not about competition. “I really enjoy seeing the creativity in promposals, but I also feel for those who might not have an extravagant proposal,” she mentioned. “If you want to ask someone to prom, do it because you want to enjoy the night with that person, not to outdo anyone else.”
Her pictures quickly caught the eye of a popular Instagram account dedicated to promposals, leading to a flurry of likes and comments. Ava’s bold move serves as a reminder that you don’t need a date to enjoy prom. The key is to have fun, dance the night away with friends, and be sure to wear comfy shoes to avoid blisters.
As of now, no one has stepped forward to ask Ava to be their prom date, but she isn’t stressing about it. “Honestly, if my school had a prom, I’d probably just go with my girlfriends anyway,” she said. YES, GIRL!
Regardless of whether she ends up going to prom this year, Ava understands that prom is more about friendship and fun than it is about romance or lavish proposals. “There’s so much pressure on girls to find the perfect date and have the most impressive promposal. But at the end of the day, prom is about making memories with friends!”
