Prom may have been the sweetest memory of your high school years — but if your prom night was an awkward nightmare that’s been haunting you all these years, relax! Your friends at The Inquisitr are here to help.

We’ve been combing the archives of one of our favorite sites on the web, the awesomely epic AwkwardFamilyPhotos.com , to dig out the oddest, most awkward and hopefully hilarious prom photos we can find — all in the interest of making you feel better about yourself.

A few months ago, we brought you glamorous celebrities in awkward prom photos . If that didn’t make you feel better about yourself, here are 20 more prom pics, but this time we’re bringing you awkward prom photos of regular folks just like you.

We hope these photos make your prom memories feel a little less awkward.

Well, there’s never anything awkward about patriotism, even at the prom.
Here’s a young man who knows exactly what he’s looking for in a prom date.
One question: does size matter?
The Palin family prom?
“Don’t worry, Sir. My intentions for your daughter are completely honorable .”
He didn’t exactly dress for the occasion, but from the looks of things, this smooth operator didn’t need to.
These two speak for themselves. We’re not sure what they’re saying. But they speak for themselves.
“Hmm. Let’s see. Spend a special moment with my little girl on the biggest night of her young life? Or water the lawn? Aw, what the heck, why not both?”
It’s a magical night in the trailer park!
“Hey.” “Hey.” “So, I dunno, you wanna go to the prom, or something?” “Yeah, like, whatever.”
You don’t need a degree in psychology to figure out where this relationship is going.
Chicks dig a guy in a uniform.
“Going my way?”
“Son, I don’t think I need to tell you what happens if you don’t have her home by 11.”
One guy didn’t get the memo about this year’s prom theme.
Giving new meaning to the titles Prom King and Queen.
Best prom outfit ever. And the girl’s dress is pretty outstanding, too.
After the prom, he sleeps with the fishes.
Proving once again that Beatle boots go awesomely with any look.
