AHHH prom issues!!!!?
so im a freshman, and i got invited to the junior/senior prom by a junior. i dont really know whether we're going as friends, or whether he's interested in me. also, i have no idea what im supposed to do. i got invited late (prom is in 2 weeks), and i can handle the dress and all that. im guessing that im just going to buy my own ticket since im not dating this guy, but i know we're also going out with a bunch of other prom couples for dinner and sharing a limo. i dont mind paying at all, but no one's brought it up with me and i dont know who to ask about whether the guys are paying, whether i should pay some, etc... what's customary?
also, the bouttoniere? do i get one for him?
ahhhh so i basically just need to know as much as i can about what usually happens in terms of all that since im completely lost right now!

he invited you so the gentleman thing to do would be for him to buy your ticket & pay for your food. though, i see nothing wrong with you offering to pay for some or all of it if he can't afford to. you're just gonna have to discuss that with your date. & yes, you should buy him a boutonniere and he should get your corsage.
& as far as whether he likes you as more than a friend, its hard to tell from just what you've said. However, he invited you b/c he felt that he could have a fun night with you so just enjoy the night & have a blast (:
talk to the guy about it.. at my school only juniors and seniors can buy tickets, so he'll probably have to get that. i think technically girls are supposed to pay for the boutonniere. but my guy paid for all the flowers, as well as dinner. it would be kind of rude for him to ask you as his date and then not pay for your dinner.. but like i said just talk to him.. casually bring it up in a conversation and get everthing worked out.
The best thing for you to do is ask him if you two are going as friends or dates. Then you should be able to figure the rest out.
Usually guys buy everything. except the dress. even though u r going as friends u should still buy him a bouttoniere. but u should bring money just in case he is not traditional.
