Today, I had an elaborate plan to ask this girl to Prom, and it was going to take a few minutes to set up. I asked my friend to distract her. He decided to distract her by asking her to Prom. She said "Yes". FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I asked a girl to prom by having 5 friends hold up signs saying "P-R-O-M-?" while I snuck up behind her. She said yes... to my friend holding the "?", who she thought was the one asking her. FML
Today, I asked a short girl to prom by making a "You must be this tall to say no" sign. She grabbed a chair, stood on it, and then said no. FML
Today, I asked my girlfriend to prom. Instead of saying yes, she broke up with me. FML
Today, after telling a friend I was contemplating asking a girl to prom, my friend took my phone, told me to have some balls, and texted the girl asking her to prom. She said no, because I asked her over text instead of in person. She refuses to believe I didn't send the text. FML
Today, I was going to ask this girl I love to homecoming. I set up a scavenger hunt, and my friend led her through it. At the end of the scavenger hunt I had a note that said, "Homecoming?" She said yes and hugged my friend. When I told her it was me who was asking, she laughed and said no. FML
Today, I rejected my crush's prom proposal because I didn't think he was being serious and wanted to prank me or something. Turns out he was serious but now he's going with another girl. FML
Today, I was going to propose to my girlfriend of 3 years. I got reservations for a romantic dinner, and at the end, fireworks would spell out my proposal. The whole thing had taken weeks to plan out and had cost me a lot of money. She proposed to me at a subway station first. FML
Today, I decided to ask my friend to the school dance, which is one where the girls ask the guys. I spent hours placing signs down his street so he would see them on his way home. As I was waiting in his driveway with balloons, I saw his car reverse and go in the opposite direction. FML
Today, at a restaurant, I happily watched as my boyfriend of three years got down on his knees and proposed to me. Before I could say yes and hug him, a girl flung herself at him, kissed him and shouted, "Yes!" With us still highly confused, she then ran away. FML
Today, I asked a girl what time she'd like me to pick her up for our date tonight. She didn't know what I was talking about. It seems like, after months of sweaty palms, nervous smiles, and awkward sentences, I only dreamed she said yes to going out. FML

Go up to her and tell her. Not like tattle-tale tell, but just go out and say that you really wanted to go to prom with her and had a plan with decorations to ask her, and your friend who knew you were asking her out then decided to ask her. She'll understand, and find out that he's an asshole. #14 has a good idea too. Aha.

You probably should have just asked her to prom. Your friend is smarter than you are. You completely deserved this.

He *is* a dick, but then again, I'd probably do the same thing if she was hot enough.

That sucks, but it raises an interesting ethical question. Presuming that he was already planning to ask her to the Prom when you asked him to distract her, what obligation did he have to you? I don’t think that he had a duty to abandon his plans to ask her to the Prom just because someone else expressed intent to do the same thing. At the same time, if he agreed to act as your agent by distracting her and then betrayed his fiduciary duty to you by asking her, he would have acted unethically. It would have been better for him to say “actually, I was planning on asking her,” and then work with you to come up with a fair way to determine who got to ask first (keeping in mind that a third person could swoop in at any time and ask her himself).

well since you have all that stuff, you could ask another girl if it wasnt too tailored to that specific girl
