Readers - Do you remember the Girl that wasn't sure if she should go to the Prom? The original letter can be read HERE.
Below is a follow-up email she sent me.
- Bro Jo
Dear Bro Jo,
Thank you!
That helped a LOT! I was leaning in that direction, but everyone kept saying that I should go so I didn't miss out on such a big event. I had a really busy weekend anyway, so I turned him down by saying that I had a bunch of family coming in town because my brother was getting baptized (he really is :]) and I'd be spending time with my family all day, and that I thought it was more important to go to that than prom, so I was sorry, but I'd have to turn him down. I thought that was a pretty smooth way to reinforce that I put my beliefs in front of him, don't you think ;)
I actually got asked by another guy not too long after, but I turned him down too.. and I'm really happy with my decision. Yeah, I'll miss Junior Prom, but that's okay! It's not the end of the world.. and I can always go on a date with guy #2 later. But I'll have my family for forever and having them all in one place is something that doesn't happen too often.. So I think I'm going to make the best of it. Plus.. There's always next year! :)
Thanks again!
- Magnet
