\"Proms are awsome, you'll have lots of fun.\"

I thought prom was expensive and boring and it overall sucked.

I realize that you don't feel comfortable around him, thats normal.\"

You think it is 'normal' for a girl to be nervous around another student? Maybe there is something wrong with him to make her nervous, maybe she is overly nervous. Forcing a union doens't sound healthy.

\"But if you ignore him then it will just get worse.\"

Why? Will he start stalking her? that doesn't seem like a good idea to get closer to someone like that.

\"Talk to him, learn about him!\"

Even if she makes him nervous?

\"He goes to your church, so its not like he is a rapist or anything!\"

Right, 'cause nobody that goes to church has ever done anything wrong, crime is ONLY caused by non-believers in christ, duh!

And does promgirl ever get to the prom or is she now featured on the back of a milk carton?

<<< Proms are awsome, you'll have lots of fun. >>>

Didn't go to mine. I would have had more fun watching paint dry (as it was, I just got together with a few of my friends who had similar opinions about the merits of prom).

<<< I realize that you don't feel comfortable around him, thats normal. >>>

Depends on how uncomfortable. Being nervous, particularly on a first date, isn't unusual at all - but if it's anything more than that, there's a good chance something is wrong. The worst advice you can ever give to someone when something seems out of place is to ignore it.

<<< But if you ignore him then it will just get worse. >>>

I'm going to be charitable and interpret this to mean that the nerves will get worse. Might be true, in that case - but if Redhunter's interpretation is correct, this is seriously bad advice.

<<< He goes to your church, so its not like he is a rapist or anything! >>>

There it is, folks: one of the worst bits of advice you can ever give to anyone: to let your guard down with a person you don't know particularly well who makes you nervous.

Maybe nothing happened. But I could very easily see that ending very, very badly.

\"He goes to your church, so its not like he is a rapist or anything!\"

And what happens when the poor girl is a date rape victim because of the guy?

Just because he goes to church does not mean he's a good guy.

Oh how stupid of us, we must have forgotten that christians never do anything wrong, mark david chapman. If you believe in jesus you wouldn't hurt a fly, jonestown massacre. I hope she had fun at the prom, crusades.

Oh, great.

So all a rapist has to do to gain trust is hang around in church?

Be sure to write that down, motherfuckers.
