nothing that wouldn't happen to those that attended prom, the students' life most likely will be a fulfilling as the others unless, they have regrets of not going to prom and that is something time will help them live with most likely....

Absolutely nothing! There is no problem in life like choosing whether or not to go to the prom and who to take (or so it seems at the time). But, whatever your decision, it does not affect the rest of your life anymore than you let it. If you want to go: go. If you don't then don't.

They get stoned to death at their 10 year High School Reunion! No, seriously... nothing. Maybe regret, if it was something you wanted to do, and didn't get to.. but otherwise? Nothing. Nothing at all.

I went to my high school prom... for 15 minutes. My date and I were bored stiff and we wanted to go cruising, anyway. And other things. We had a terrific night. So it's how you want to make it, not someone else.

I just went long enough to sneak a can of tennis balls into the piano before the piano music started. Wish I had been there to see that! LOL

They can be glad that they saved a lot of money... It's not a big thing... unless you make it a big thing... Life has soooooo much more going on than proms.... you won't even think about it... I'd be more worried about grades and graduating and keeping my nose clean...

Do you mean what happens to people who couldn't get a date for the prom but wanted to go? I have two daughters, one who had to choose between many dates for the prom and one who wasn't asked. The "popular daughter" has now been out of high school 11 years, is married with 2 kids and is an assistant editor at a magazine. The "unpopular" one is a graduate student in biochemistry and couldn't care less about the high school experience. They are both happy with their lives and the directions they are going.

I went to my prom but within the hour I had been rushed to hospital. My dress was uncomfy and I was chronically shy so felt like a fish out of water, but my friends pushed me into going. My advice - its a waste of money if you don't really want to go.

well, im sorry to announce that if you dont go to the prom you are a social misfit. you will constantly fail in every subsequent social situation you find yourself in. you will be unable to form attachments with the people you love, and everywhere you go, people will know and they WILL be pointing at, laughing at and talking about you. you will either end up homeless with no family and friends, a victim of homicide or as a lawyer... joke,proms arent as good as they think they are, only go if you want to.

Nothing. I never went to my Prom. Just not my thing. I don't regret, was never ostracized. Nobody ever said a word. I'd gotten dressed up for things before and I just wasn't into crowds of young people dancing.

Nothing. Im still here!! I really wanted to go, but I was going out with what would later be my husband, he didn't want to go, so we didn't. One our twenty-fifth anniversary he hired a hugh limo and we drove to vermont, got coffee at Donkin donuts and came home..That was my Prom..What could be better than that.

I never went to Prom. I hated every single person I've ever met in the course of my education, and I'd be darn-diddled if I was gonna pay for the honor to spend even more time with them. I left that school, and never seen a one again, and never wanted to. I suppose, maybe, you grow up to be really bitter about your past.

"Non-prommers" are tagged by a federal agency and tracked throughout life. Your chances of getting jobs is diminished, you will get the glove treatment at airport security and you can't ever become an elected federal official. These are some sad folks. They need to be mistreated.
