but she doesn't know I like her yet.
What was the point of the date then??
Quote:
while we were talking, I asked her to be my back-up prom date because my prom is still a year from now.
That's a bit too forward thinking.

And right now, she's holding me against the words "back-up prom date"
I think its the "back up" part. You're basically saying that you will spend the next year looking for an upgrade but if you fail, you'll settle for her.
As for tips:
Apologise
Ask her out on another date and escalate.
