She Doesn’t Want To Go To Prom With Her Boyfriend Anymore Because He Plans To Wear A Fish Tie
This 17-year-old girl has been dating her 18-year-old boyfriend, Joseph, for about five months now. And she is honestly head over heels in love with him.
Apparently, Joseph is a person who really loves the outdoors and enjoys activities such as fishing and camping. He even hopes to take her on a few camping or fishing trips over the summer.
“I’m his first ‘real girlfriend.'” she revealed.
“He means the world to me, and I want to make him happy in any way I can.”
Ever since she was a little girl, though, she has dreamed of going to her high school prom. And this year, that dream will finally become a reality.
Joseph, however, was never really into the whole idea. But thankfully, with prom right around the corner, he agreed to accompany her.
“He didn’t make a big deal out of it at all, and I thought that he was going to make me happy,” she said.
So, they both purchased their tickets. But ever since then, she claims that her boyfriend has not stopped talking about how much he hates the idea of prom and how much of a hassle the whole event is going to be.
Now, she honestly had no idea Joseph felt so strongly about prom. And if she had known beforehand, she probably would not have even asked him to go.

The pair already agreed and bought their tickets, though. So, she went ahead with buying her prom dress, shoes, and accessories in late February and early March.
However, her boyfriend still has not gotten any pieces for his prom outfit.
Just a few days ago, though, Joseph started discussing prom with some friends on Discord. And during the conversation, he brought up what items he still needed to buy.
“I just need a suit, shoes, and a fish tie,” her boyfriend said.
At the time, she had just been doing some homework and was not really paying any attention to the conversation. But, as soon as she heard the words “fish tie,” she stopped everything she was doing and asked Joseph to repeat himself.
At first, she thought she had just misheard him. However, her fears were soon confirmed after Joseph revealed he planned to wear a fish tie to prom.
Apparently, her boyfriend’s reasoning was that since he was only going to prom for her, he deserved to wear something to express himself.
While she thinks that’s completely understandable, though, she just wishes he hadn’t picked something so tacky.
She then took a look at the different fish ties her boyfriend was considering wearing, and she realized all of them would totally clash with her prom gown.
So, while she wants him to feel happy and express himself at prom, she thinks Joseph should’ve just turned down her invite to the event and let her go with someone else if he really was not interested in taking prom seriously.
Obviously, though, it’s far too late for that since her boyfriend’s ticket is nonrefundable, and he believes he “has to” attend.
Regardless, she’s starting to feel as though Joseph resents her for merely asking him to be her date. So, she decided to give him an out.
“I told him if he seriously doesn’t want to go and hates it so much, I will reimburse him the money,” she revealed.
Since then, she is still waiting on a response from Joseph. At the same time, she’s been left wondering whether not wanting to go to prom with her boyfriend if he wears a fish tie makes her a real jerk or not.
Was it sweet of her boyfriend to agree to go to the prom even though he really never wanted to? Should he get to wear what he wants or not? Could he just bring a classic tie for photos and change into the fish tie for the remainder of the evening? How else could they compromise in this situation?
