this elaborate display in the hallway with a banner and a red carpet leading from the classroom of the girl he's 'Prom-posing' to all the way out to the main foyer where he was standing surrounded completely by balloons, with roses in vases lining it the whole way - and then let all the other students just skip class to go watch.
How is that not horribly coercive (unless the girl he's trying to ask out has already agreed and this is just some stupid thing for "show")? That's like those people who propose to their girlfriend in public in front of thousands of people. It's ridiculous.
Unrelated:
A friend I've had for years is (possibly) having his LDR girlfriend break up with him (maybe) and started flirting with me today awkwardly on FB (I woke up early, started talking to him, and then said i was gonna get up and take a shower and do some stuff, and when I came back he had said "*refrains from comment*" and when I pressed him for what he meant, said "nothing, i don't think you'd appreciate lewd remarks " and then told me he'd refrained from joking about "can I join you" or whatever.
It's like, DUDE. You're in another country from me, too! Just because we mildly flirted some online YEARS ago after my first breakup, when I was sad and lonely (and it didn't even get that far, either), doesn't give you the right to say that. It's like FFS, me saying "I'm going to the shower" was just telling you WHAT I WAS GOING TO BE DOING FOR THE NEXT HALF HOUR, not a flirt. :/
