He Asked His Friend To Prom, Knowing That She Was Still Angry At Him, So She Walked Out, Had A Panic Attack, And Now The Whole School Is Talking About The Incident
This 18-year-old guy has liked his friend, Faith, for quite a while. And being that they are seniors in high school, he has intended to ask her to prom all year.
But, due to some misunderstanding– in which he accidentally ruined her school project– Faith has been pretty upset with him.
Now, he claims that he has sort of apologized. More specifically, Faith wouldn’t talk to him at the time, so he was forced to ask a mutual friend to relay his apology– which he understood at the time.
But, since a good amount of time has passed since their argument, he thought it would still be a good idea to ask Faith to prom. After all, he really wanted to go with her and knew that she still didn’t have a date.
So, he planned out a whole promposal. The goal was to do it at lunch. But, since Faith was mad at him, she didn’t normally sit with him and his friend group in the cafeteria anymore.
That’s why he intentionally decided not to join his friend group during one lunch period– to get Faith to show up and sit down.
Then, once he got confirmation from a different friend that she was there, he walked into the cafeteria and did his whole promposal.
Apparently, it involved a bunch of signs, a song he played over a speaker, and some flowers and candy.
And since the whole display was happening in the middle of the cafeteria, he drew a lot of attention.

“As I was asking her to prom and telling her again how sorry I was and how I wanted to make it up to her by giving her a fun night at prom, everyone was looking, and some people started recording,” he recalled.
Faith, on the other hand, did not look at him whatsoever– which was obviously pretty awkward for him. Instead, she just stared down into her lap while a few of her friends tried to get him to stop the display.
Still, though, he wound up ignoring Faith’s friends– which only made things worse.
He claimed that one of her friends actually shoved him pretty hard, which caused him to nearly fall down. Afterward, Faith and her friends just got up and walked out.
So, the whole thing was seriously awkward, and he was just standing there while other students stared at him. That’s why he decided to go after Faith and her friends after they left– and he ultimately found them standing behind the building.
The girls weren’t just standing there and chatting, though. Rather, Faith was actually shaking and throwing up!
At that point, he tried to ask what was happening. But all of her friends just kept telling her to leave.
Still, he didn’t take the hint and kept trying to speak with Faith. And after a while of her just ignoring him, she eventually yelled at him.
“She screamed in a way that was scary and concerning,” he revealed.
“And one of her friends said I was making her panic attack worse.”
By that point, he was finally convinced he needed to leave and decided to give Faith a few minutes to cool off.
But, he still didn’t leave the situation alone and instead reported what was going on to one of their school counselors. Anyway, later that day, he was supposed to have a class with Faith. And he expected her to say something once they were in the same classroom.
To his surprise, though, she was not there. He later learned from one of Faith’s close friends that she had actually gone to the administration office and begged to switch out of his class just so she wouldn’t have to see him.
Since then, he has not tried to approach Faith again. Instead, he plans to give her some more space before eventually apologizing for causing a scene.
Still, he just wishes that Faith would either provide an explanation about what happened or at least give him an answer to his promposal– because ever since the whole spectacle, a ton of students have been posting about it on social media.
“And people are either making fun of me or mad at me,” he vented. “They’ve even been talking to Faith, and I guess she told them something else because people are also coming at me for ruining her life.”
So now, while he feels bad for causing Faith to have a panic attack, he’s been left wondering whether just trying to ask her to prom really made him a jerk.
Regardless of why Faith was upset with him, why do you think he didn’t get the hint and leave her alone? Should he have tried to ask her to prom, knowing she was still angry at him? How could he have better handled this situation?
