Prom Competition

This person was so close to getting what they’d always wanted. Having your crush ask you to prom is basically the ultimate high school dream. They were probably imagining their perfect evening, but unfortunately, their happiness was short-lived once they found out why their crush had decided to ask them.

It seems like a lot of these moments happen in high school. It makes sense—it’s such a strange and awkward time when everyone is figuring out their identities, and how to navigate things like friendships, relationships, and their future. And it leads to some truly cringe-worthy relationship (and breakup) moments.
