'Tis the season for formals when every girl is going crazy looking for the perfect date. He has to be tall because you want to wear heels, he needs to be able to take a good picture so you have something to show off, and he needs to have a personality that can handle your friend group. Does he even exist?'
There is no better group of women that understands the challenges of searching for the perfect man than the women of The Bachelor. This season we have seen the claws come out and the desperation for the perfect man be revealed, something we can all relate to when searching for the perfect formal date.
Here are a few struggles, fears, and doubts one has when searching for a formal date as told by the girls who can relate the most:
1. "Sorry I can't go, someone already asked me to go on one that weekend."
Nobody likes being said no to, especially when it's because of another girl.
2. When formal is in a week and you still don't have a date.
You have managed to find something wrong with every guy your friends have offered to hook you up with and now you are a week away and desperate for a date.
3. He's nice but will he look good in pictures?
If you didn't Insta, did you really go to formal? Every girl wants a hot piece standing next to her when she posts on Instagram.
4. When you kind of want to ask your bootycall but you don't want to scare him off.
You are low-key starting to have feelings for your bootycall and think asking him to formal might send things in a little more serious direction, but of course, you don't want to ruin the great thing you already have going.
5. Will he get the absurd sense of humor you and your friends have?
6. Should you take your guy friend or a blind date?
You know you will have a good time with your guy friend but with a blind date, there is always the possibility things could get hot and steamy. So do you play it safe or take a chance on a possible new relationship?
7. When you just need a little reassurance from the guy you are talking to before asking him to go with you.
Things have been going well so far but you aren't sure if your relationship is ready for the big question; Formal?
8. Will they expect something when the night is over?
But would that really be so bad if you are down for it too?
9. "Sorry, but no."
When you think you guys really hit it off so you decide to go out on a limb and ask him to go and he straight up tells you no. No explanation or excuse, just no.
10. When you begin to wonder if going solo and drinking heavily at the pregame is your best option.
Jack Daniels and Jim Bean can be considered dates too, right?
