So, since that incident with my friend (the one who either was an asshole about something that was important to me OR let some stranger [to me] look at all the texts I had sent him) I've come to realize it was a good thing. Maybe it's not a good thing that no one has my full trust anymore, but it's a good thing that I've finally gotten over the stupid crush I used to have on him. Stuff kept happening that SHOULD have made me get over him, but it never did. Then this happened, and since I don't trust him I can't imagine myself with him. So that's good, I guess. It still hurts like hell to know that I don't have anyone to turn to (aside from you guys, obviously) but eventually I'll either get over that or find someone new to trust. But now I have a whole new panic. I'll be a junior next year, and my dad told me I have to go to prom. Prom. As in, the little strapless dresses. The little strapless dresses as in the ones that most definitely show scars on your left bicep. Scars as in the ones from cutting that no one except the aforementioned distrusted friend knows about. I've been looking at Lolita style dresses, and most of them have sleeves, which is good. But I'm not sure my parents would let me wear one to prom. That first picture is the one I'm currently looking at, I absolutely love it. I'm aware it's not a traditional prom dress, but when have I ever been traditional? The second one is the one my friend likes best. I like it, but 1) it would get really hot at prom and 2) I don't know if it needs an underskirt or comes with one. So, which one do you guys like best, or do you have any other ideas for prom dresses that would hide my scars? By the way, I could do a dress with one sleeve, but that sleeve would HAVE to be on my left arm. Short sleeves are okay. And yes I'm aware that prom is ages away, but if I don't find a dress early some family member (probably my grandmother) is going to buy me a prom dress without asking me if I like it first, and it will have no sleeves and I will offend my grandmother by not wearing it. So. Any help would be appreciated.
