Nominated homecoming royalty but I have a girlfriend/date.?

Question

So I have been nominated for homecoming royalty and traditionaly I have to take a dance with the wining female. I have a girlfriend who will also be my date for homecoming. She is really upset that I will have to take this dance with whoever wins. (If I happen to win) My question is... is it that big of a deal to have a dance with someone who wins the election? Should she be upset about it or should I have my name removed from the ballet?

Answer 1

Let her be upset. Why should she potentially take out a memory. It's only a high school dance. She'll get over it. It's great to do stuff for people but why should she freak over one dance.... It doesn't mean c**p.

If I were you, I'd ask her to respect you and if you win, she should be excited she gets to be the real queen.

Answer 2

that is totally not a big deal and your girlfriend should understand.

its just a dance.

although she will probably be jealous or whatever, if she was supportive she would let you dance with that other girl.

besides, your girlfriend is going to be there.. so she can like"watch" you.

dont take your name out.

thats dumb.

just talk to her.

Good Luck!!!

Answer 3

Tell her it means nothing to you, and if shes still jealous she's an idiot and therefore you should A) Hit  and B) Quit

Answer 4

Honey you don't have to take the Queen go with your girlfriend it would make things alot easier, go and have fun and I know when I was in high school you don't have to go with anybody on the court, just a dance and a picture for the newspaper so just take my advise and go with your girlfriend!

Answer 5

i think that you should remove ur name if you really care so much abt ur gf. she is your gf, and u probably understand her pretty well. or u could try to explain 2 her about ur situation, and talk it thru

Answer 6

just ditch the winning female at the dance and go with your g/f

Answer 7

DO NOT remove your name from the ballot!  One dance, does not an evening make!  Tell your girlfriend to be as gracious as you know she can be, because you intend to be the gentleman you are!  What will she do when something really important comes up?

Answer 8

try to change it. cause probably the girl that wins wont want to dance with u eithar... she would much rather dance with her boyfriend. and u shouldnt remove your name from the ballet cause u will so regret it. and probably your relationship with this girl wont last very long.

Answer 9

She has a major coping problem if a single dance is going to be that big a deal.  You have two choices:

Tell her, tough, grow up, or

Refuse the nomination if she is more important to you.

Answer 10

You better not take your name off the ballot.  Tell the girl to put her jealousy aside (don't actually tell her this) for five minutes.  This is tradition, your date needs to grow up.

Answer 11

According to tradition, you are only required to dance the first dance with the winning female. afterwards you are free to dance with anyone else.

Answer 12

Work it bro.  Rules are rules.  Take the dance.  If she get's all jealous that's on her.

Don't put up with that kind of manipulation, man.  It's High School.  It's too early to be led around by the nose.  

Save the "married" life for later please!

Answer 13

I don't think it's a big deal, but if your girlfriend is the jealous type, she'll definitely hold it against you.

Answer 14

girls seem to have a problem with that kind of thing. what i say is dont remove your name but change the song you are going to dance to. for example how would you feel if she was slow dancing with another guy. maby if you can change the song to rock and roll or someting where you dont get too into each other she wont feel as bad.

Answer 15

She is upset but no do not back out, sit her down and talk and talk to her until it sinks in that she is your girl and this is something far removed from that like if you danced with a bride whilst she danced with a groom at a family wedding, If she still gets up tight just repeat it and say you are going ahead because you are still a person with free will, and go ahead.

Answer 16

maby your girlfriend should be more homecoming material and win instead of hate on you for being to d**n hott for your own good.

Answer 17

If your girlfriend is upset with this well-established tradition, she is controlling, jealous little b***h!

Perhaps if you win the vote, you can trade her in for a nicer, better looking girlfriend.

Answer 18

Tell your girlfriend to take a chill pill, be happy for you if you win and stop being so jealous.  If she doesn't, maybe it works for you to hook up with someone other than her.  She sounds too insecure anyway!!!

Answer 19

That's silly, the date is being immature.  Have your dance (if you win) with the other winner.  These things happen few times in your LIFETIME.  Enjoy it!

Answer 20

I say you should tell her that u will go with her and if u do win, just dance with the queen and when ur done, make out with ur gf/date.LOL

Answer 21

of course not. it's just one dance , and you don't even know if you are going to win.
