Can you dance? Wait, let us answer that for you: No. No one can dance, except for a select few, and we're all insanely jealous of them and afraid to date them for fear of looking stupid at a wedding reception. But we shouldn't be, as four such excellent dancers explain in this week's superb "Dating Advice From...Dancers" column.
Some people are reluctant to date a dancer because they're self-conscious about their own dancing abilities. How do you put someone at ease about this?
Personally — and I think most dancers feel this way — it's not how you dance, it's if you're willing to dance at all. I can't handle any dance that makes fun of the fact that you're dancing, like "the sprinkler" or the "putting the groceries in the cart" dance. I don't care how gawky or ridiculous you look, I just want to dance with you.
