The Saddest Prom Queens: A Tragic Tale of High School Heartbreak

Listen to this article:

Prom season is upon us, and while it's a time of excitement and celebration for many high school students, there are always a few who end up feeling less than victorious. In the annals of prom history, there have been some truly sad prom queens, but none quite as tragic as these two.

First up, we have Becky. Poor Becky. She had been dreaming of prom night since she was a little girl, and she had even practiced her prom queen wave in the mirror for months leading up to the big event. But when the night finally arrived, things took a turn for the worse.

Becky had managed to secure a date with the captain of the football team, but it turns out he had other plans. In the middle of their first dance, he abruptly announced that he had to go to the bathroom and disappeared for the rest of the night. Left alone on the dance floor, Becky tried to put on a brave face, but the tears started to flow pretty quickly. She spent the rest of the night sitting at a table, eating finger sandwiches and staring into space, her crown slipping down over her tear-streaked face. It was a sad sight indeed.

Our second sad prom queen is none other than Tiffany. Tiffany had always been a bit of an outsider, but she was determined to make her mark at prom. She spent weeks shopping for the perfect dress and practicing her makeup, and she even managed to convince the school's resident bad boy to be her date. But when they arrived at the prom, things quickly went downhill.

The bad boy turned out to be a bit of a jerk, and he spent most of the night hitting on other girls and making Tiffany feel small. To make matters worse, her dress ripped in the middle of a dance, leaving her exposed and embarrassed in front of the entire school. By the time prom king and queen were announced, Tiffany was a mess of tears and mascara, her tiara perched precariously on her messy bun.

So there you have it folks, two of the saddest prom queens in history. Let's hope that this year's prom-goers have a happier ending. And remember, if you're going to be a jerk, at least have the decency to do it before the dance starts.

Oh man, reading this article brought back some terrible prom memories. I remember going with a guy I had a crush on for years, only to find out he was actually dating someone else the whole time. I spent the night trying not to cry in the bathroom.

Always stay away from room temperature snacks and apps that contain mayonnaise… that’s all I wish to say.

You know what they say, 'opinions are like belly buttons - everyone has one.' And this article was definitely an opinion.

I can totally relate to Tiffany's experience. I went to prom with a girl I barely knew, and we ended up having nothing to talk about. I spent most of the night awkwardly shuffling around the dance floor, feeling like a total loser.

My prom night was a total disaster. I had this elaborate updo that I had spent hours getting done, and as soon as I got to the dance, it started to unravel. By the end of the night, my hair was a frizzy mess and I was so embarrassed that I couldn't even enjoy myself.

I went to prom with my girlfriend at the time, but halfway through the night, she broke up with me. I spent the rest of the night sitting at a table by myself, feeling like a total loser. It was the worst.

I found a few typos in this article, but I still thought it was well-ritten.

I'll never forget the time I went to prom and nobody asked me to dance. I spent the entire night sitting on the sidelines, watching everyone else have a good time. It was so sad and lonely.
