So my date and I have been planning for prom since Christmas. She said yes and her parents said “we don’t like it, but yes” a few weeks ago. I thought I got the verification. So I went out and spent close to $800 on new clothing (tux, shoes, tie, shirt) and gifts (i.e. flowers). I even told my coach I cannot attend the State Championship that weekend because I know it wouldn’t be fair to my date for me to have a possibility to be late. Last week, her parents exploded onto her due to a snowball of issues and took away many of her priviledges and grounded her. And now they say “Hell no, you can’t go with him.” It’s kinda a racial issue too, since her parents are prejudice. But it’s not fair to me, since they already said yes and I spent so much money and sacrificed so many things just for her. I can’t go with someone else because it wouldn’t feel right and many of the things I bought are customized for me and her. What should I do?
