She Changed Her Mind About The Color Of Her Prom Dress And Now Her Friend Is Upset With Her
A teen girl is going to be celebrating her prom in just one month. She and all of her friends had picked out the colors they wanted their prom dresses to be months ago so that they wouldn’t overlap at all.
Last week, she went shopping for her prom dress with her mom, and she found a dress that she absolutely loved.
It just so happens that her prom dress is emerald green, which is not the color that she originally picked out for her prom dress, and it also wasn’t the color that she told her friends she would wear.
“I was so keen on navy blue however I felt like the green dress was the dress,” she explained.
“One of my friends, let’s call her Ella, sent me a massive paragraph of her opinions after I had sent my dress to our friend group chat.”
Ella had wanted to wear a green prom dress, and she was so upset. Ella accused her of stealing her prom dress color, and Ella said that it simply was not fair of her to go ahead and buy a green dress when they had previously discussed color choices.
She felt quite surprised, as she had no idea that Ella would be so furious with her for going with a green prom dress too.
“Yes, I understand that we did pre-plan this, but sometimes the plan doesn’t go ahead,” she said.
“And I was the first one in our group to get my dress. I really felt this dress was mine; I loved it. And I’ve already bought it.”

Ella told her that she respected her color choice, which was originally navy, and she purposely made sure not to try on any dresses that were in that color range.
“I personally do not care if anyone wears the same color as me and I’ve never told them that they cannot wear that color,” she continued.
“It’s not only her special night but also mine and everyone else’s. She had also told people from our friend’s group about it, making me seem like the bad guy.”
Selecting a prom dress that happened to be emerald green was a spur-of-the-moment decision for her, and it’s not like she walked into the store intending to get a dress of that color.
She’s left feeling ashamed of the dress she bought, and she’s wondering if she really is wrong for getting a dress that’s the same color Ella wants to wear.
Do you think it’s ok for her and Ella to have dresses in the same color for prom, or should she have not bought the dress that she did knowing Ella wanted that color?
