I am going to my friends’ senior prom with him. He is from my old high school. I have gone to proms before with him (my senior and junior and his junior) and had a lot of fun, but this year I don’t know many people there. I am really nervous about being around so many new people at time. He has HFA and gets nervous in crowded places, too. Some of our friends are going so it shouldn’t be too bad. I am just really nervous.

Well, good luck and enjoy your prom. In all likelihood, there won't be that many more than any other time that you've gone, so you've nothing to worry about.

Best you can do is focus on enjoying yourself. Pretend those people you don't know aren't there; I remember enough of high school to know that nothing breaks cliques. Nothing you can do about the nerves except go; it sounds bearable at least.
