Do you prefer to dance with no one watching, with a group of friends, or with one special partner?
I am not a particularly good dancer. I never have been. I don’t have a really good sense of rhythm. My parents never made me take dance lessons; in fact I went to one “to see if I liked it” and I didn’t –I think I spent a total of 15 minutes; the entire time sulking. I’m actually quite self-conscious about my dancing. I do love to “boogie” around the house when no one is home while I listen to Spotify and do chores. I am sure it’s quite the sight to behold. I do love it when I can slow dance with my husband. That’s a super rare occurrence. I think in the last 6 years of our married life we have maybe slow danced maybe four times. When I was younger and actually went “clubbing” or as my husband likes to say in my “bar star days” (which he seems to believe were much wilder than they actually were) I did dance a bit with my friends. Whenever my friends and I were out I tended to simply stand in the corner with a drink in hand because it really wasn’t my thing. I mean if I was drunk enough or rather once everyone else was drunk enough and paid me little attention I would cut loose a bit more on the dance floor.
What about you?
