Neither. I'd just like to be asked for a dance for a dance - not for any other reason but lets face it, it doesn't work like that does it? :D You have to have either of the two, or if you've got both, I guess you'll be pooped by the end of the night.

Definitely because they thought I was a great dancer- just as I would far rather be asked out by someone because they thought I had a great personality:whistle: Great looks might work as far as the edge of the dance floor, but if you're a great dancer they'll enjoy the dance, no matter what you look like:flower:



Though obviously it's always a great confidence boost to think that anyone thinks you are drop dead gorgeous:wink:

I was recently pestered and pestered by a guy who went on and on about what a great backside I have....as this is all he went on about I cut him dead and said, "there is more to me than my behind, I do have a personality too you know!" He really couldn't understand why I had taken offence!

I'd much rather someone tell me I'm drop dead gorgeous.

Who cares if they think you're a great dancer. Big deal!!

If you're not, then do something about it and get better.

If you're not gorgeous - barring surgery - you're screwed ( or not:devil: )



If someone tells me I'm a fabulous dancer, I'll probably forget it before the next track has finished.

If someone tells me I'm drop dead gorgeous I'll remember it right up until I've shagged them.:whistle:

Seems pretty simple to me. If I'm dancing then I'd like someone to ask me based on that. If attractiveness is part of the issue... well yes it can add to the sizzle and spice of some dances, but in the vast majority of cases*, even if I'm attracted to the guy, I really only want to dance with him.

(*with the occasional exception, but even then its probably been his dancing that's been the wow factor, not how gorgeous he is. Being sexy can be as much about how someone moves as how they look.)

The "...the person thought you were drop dead gorgeous"-type option, because it's less common.


Great looks might work as far as the edge of the dance floor, but if you're a great dancer they'll enjoy the dance, no matter what you look like

Well, unless we're incompatible as dancers, or they made a bad judgement as to whether I'm any good. Also, I might mess up and end up with a lousy dance. If I've been asked to dance because someone thinks I look ok, I can't mess that up so much.

Depressed now. :tears:

PS - my vanity wants people to consider me gorgeous, but the slightly more rational part of my brain wants me to be a great dancer!

PPS - In fact, I think the majority of people who ask me to dance do so because I'm a 'fun' dancer...... Is that a compliment??? :confused: :what: :sick:

i agree - thats kinda the same as me! i love my dancing and think that shows on the dance floor. i also suffer from 'leaky head syndrome' and by the end of the night look as if iv just had a bucket of water thrown over me! but for some reason people still ask me to dance - i certainly dont feel attractive at that time so im guessing it must be cos im still having fun!

20th-August-2006, 09:36 PM
There's a very big difference between asking someone to dance because they look nice (because the eye is automatically drawn to nice-looking things, people, places, etc) and asking them to dance because they look nice and you're looking forward to the chance to to rub yourself all over them and making them feel uncomfortable. If you have a problem with people thinking you look nice, I might suggest that you need to look at your self-esteem, rather than calling it sleaziness on the part of the other.

Obviously, in the above descriptions, SF mainly does the rubbing part but usually manages to get away without the uncomfortableness, usually because the women he's rubbing fancy him back. One day we might even work out why.

Suppose it depends how you say it. There can be both nice and sleazy ways of giving compliments.


I'm still in two minds how to answer the original question:confused: :confused:

Yes it's always a fantastic ego boost to hear that someone thinks your a great dancer:clap:
BUT
being told you're very attractive is also a fantastic ego boost but depending on who says it could have mixed effects

Freya

Sleezyness can be dependant on the Person on the recieving end.

Some people will laugh it off especially if the Guy is trying to be funny where as others may take it the wrong way.

Some guys are just plain sleezy though. One guy I know its the way he dances and looks at you not what he says. He's very UCP all the time whatever the type of music whatever the move. and he kinda lears at you when he's smiling! Gives me the Creeps.

But simply saying someone looks nice isn't sleezy it's in the tone of the voice and the way you look at them when saying it!!!!

Juju
27th-August-2006, 12:05 PM
Can't I have both please? I have, however, voted for the second option, because if I thought someone was asking to me to dance based on my looks alone (yeah, right) I'd be concerned that I might be dealing with a potential creep. Sad but true.

So many times now I've spotted a lovely fresh faced young man over the other side of the room, dredged up the courage to go and ask for a dance, only to find within the first 3 seconds he is the most terrible dancer in the world! And then I instantly loose interest! (Am I sick?) And then go looking for the reassuringly haggard faces of the good dancers I know and love. (I made them haggard possibly)

Its a MYTH!There is no such as a good dancer who is drop dead georgeous! If such a thing were possible the universe would probably impload!
