what's the point of prom if your going alone
the title is self-explanatory, I have no date let alone friends outside or inside of school to attend with me. I feel no excitement or joy over going, I feel nothing at all besides anxiety and prepare to embarrass myself there tonight as I have to stay the entire 4 hours.
I just don't know what to do with myself, I am worried i'll start crying actually out of shamefulness of being alone or watching others enjoy themselves. I don't think people will approach me either, I don't believe I catch any interest to even talk with. I am far too nervous to start conversations myself and I don't know how to engage with strangers.
People told me they, "commend me" for going alone, which doesn't help me feel any better as I don't have an option not to anyway. I don't feel like I'm making a brave or bold statement I'm really embarrassed. So yeah this post is basically an anonymous confession/vent i'm a loser I guess.

No one is a loser. change ur prespective towards ur life.
try to convert this lonliness into ur solitude and its difficult in the beginning but at the end results are always better.
spend time with ur family ,start meditating for at least for 10 mins daily , develop a hobby like reading or gymming or playing games indoor or outdoor. the problem of being alone is universal. eveyone feels the same. The diff is some overthink the situation.
stop comparing ur life with others. everyone in this world is lagging behind one way or the other.no one is perfect. enjoying with people does not mean u can overcome the problems of ur life. at the end everyone is alone . no one is there. A person is valued only when he is born and after his death.
