Personally my morals follow this rule.

1. Would they do the same for me?
2. Are they a good person in general?

If the answer is yes to both then I would let them have what it is they want, if not I would take it for myself.

In a world of dog eat dog, you gotta be the one who eats.

To sum up what happened, I essentially ended up at home being terribly sick, and missed my opportunity, which sucked. However, we were talking a few days ago and I found out that she does have feelings for me. Not sure how to move further at this point (since, you know, she has a prom date), but I'll try and figure it out.
