Jak and Friends, I went to my own ballroom venue last night, but joined-up with my W afterwards. She didn't join me as she is intimidated by ballroom, and hasn't developed a network. She probably would not have had a good time. I had a great time.
I felt initially guilty for not joining her for her evening, but felt good about joining her afterwards. She went by herself to a local cultural festival. I met with her later in the evening at her latin venue. We danced several dances together. I got to renew some old acquaintances, and danced with two other ladies from my old network. I'm more comfortable with and enjoy the diversity of ballroom versus the consistent energy of latin dancing. I'll let my W determine to what extent she wants to move into ballroom and swing dancing, and pursue what I enjoy on my own or she can choose to join me, if she behaves herself. My W seemed appreciative that I came. We chatted at home afterwards.
Her friend left early, as he complained that he wasn't dancing enough. I wonder to what extent, my presence played a role. My W says that he's a disrespectful dancer, and uses the lady to show off difficult moves that he's not prepared to do on the floor.
She asked me to take her out for her birthday on 9/29. She's afraid that her friend will back out at the last minute. I agreed.
