I did attend high school dances with the "good witness boys". In our congregation , it wasn't encouraged, but not forbidden either. I passed on the prom because I would have had to pay for the dress etc. myself and because I didn't have a boyfriend, it didn't seem worthwhile.

Hi:
I could have gone to my Senior Prom with a nice JW girl. However, I decided it was not worth all of the trouble. In my congregation, if you just sat next to a female who you were not related to a couple of times at the meetings, in the minds of the gossips you were almost engaged. And, I could not imagine what the talk would be if I had taken someone to the Senior Prom and it was looked down upon in our congregation.

I went twice, the year I graduated and the next. I felt kind of old at the one I was at, the year after I graduated. PS : I did have sex the night of Prom. But it was not the first time.
