Formals are a really fun time to spend the last weekend of school with your friends, having one last "hoorah." Sure you can bring a guy like everyone normally does but do you know what's better? Your roommate. Bring your roommate and there's no judgement, tension, or required ladylikeness about the event. Be your 100% self and you'll never have to fish for compliments that night either. They'll make sure you know how hot you are.

1. There's no pressure/ awkwardness to ask them.

Having to ask someone or worry about being asked to the prom or a dance was horrible. Were they gonna laugh at you? Did they already have a date? Would they only go with you out of pity? Is there some unspoken awkward sexual tension between the two of you that neither of you will deal with it? Asking your roommate will be a much more relaxed experience and you know they have no choice but to say yes.

2. Your proposal will be better or funnier.

Because you're roommate's with them, you probably have an open inappropriate, nothing off limits friendship with them so you could joke about or say anything to them and they'll not only get you, but welcome you with open arms and belly laugh.

3. They'll tell you're beautiful in your dress.

A night full of copious amounts of compliments.

4. You can be as inappropriate with them as you want.

No need for manners or to be ladylike around your date. Be as unladylike as you want to be because you're date's honestly not gonna say anything.

5. They won't smell awful by the end of the night.

Sorry guys, but after a night or partying and dancing, you can smell pretty rank. Now we all get sweaty, but I can assure you, us girls come prepared to not stank it up after a few hours.

6. You know they'll always dance when you want to.

No complaining from your date that "Ughhhhh, not right now I just ate." Or, "Nah, it's a slow dance". Your roommate will ALWAYS dance with you. And they make fast paced songs much more fun.

7. Your pictures will turn out so much better.

You both are already super hot on your own, so dressed up with your hair and nails done, and some duds and you'll break the camera.

8. You can be your full self the entire time.

Living with someone means you practically have nothing to hide anyway, so why try to hold back at formal.
