Prom Spot - Q&A: Prom Dates: Telling Him He's Not Getting Lucky?

Q: My date thinks he's going to "score." I think not. How do I let him down easy?

A: For what it's worth, it's very presumptuous of your date to assume he's going to get lucky. This guy is getting way ahead of himself and is headed straight for the biggest disappointment of his social life! But that doesn't mean he doesn't have feelings. If you want to let him down easy, don't contribute to his great expectations. The next time he starts hinting around about a "private" after-party, tell him clearly that you'd rather hang out with your friends. He'll hear your message loud and clear.
