Ballroom dance lesson #7 tonite. We had a really nice time tonite. W was pleasant, helpful and really considerate of my feelings during the class. It was really nice. Afterwards, we talked all the way home about the class. I told her how at times I have so much fun and at others I just want to drive my head through a wall! I have very extreme feelings during the class and sometimes get very frustrated with myself. She told me that the routines are actually quite difficult at the pace they are being taught and that even she, who has vast dance experience, has trouble remembering steps. I felt we were a couple tonite, working together to make the experience work. We learned a new dance near the end and as I reached out for her I said "Madam, allow me to make a heartfelt apology before this dance begins as I know it will be required" She burst out laughing and then I joined in. We had fun tonite. I realize too that some of my frustration is in knowing that she is much better at dance than I and don't want to be an anchor weighing her down here, it would feel too much like our real life together!!! Anyway, good time tonite...so tonite I was a star
You know 1210, I think one of the reasons W and I got together was humour. She's very intense and I'm, well, a clown! When she was all stressed out I could make her laugh (still can). I remember saying to her that I think our differences were actually good because sometimes she needs someone to pull her down off the wall and sometimes I need a good kick in the butt to start climbing the wall. It kind of worked out well for both of us on some level until that evil lesbo alien sucked my W's brain out of her head and...well, you know the whole sordid story! Damn aliens
Hey guys! Good news. W just called and asked me to go to the gala dinner function with her, you know the one she didn't want to go to in two weeks. I said OK. So she's got the tickets and we're ready to roll. Don't worry, I'm taking it for what it is.
Just an interesting little tidbit here. W does not have to take me to the banquet. She has a co-worker planning to go as well, so she won't be alone. She could leave me at home to look after the kids but she has made arrangements for the kids already. To my knowledge, I am going because she wants me there. Why, who knows? I will just go and make her proud to present me as her H. That's the best I can do.
That is great news!! I hope you have a great time together.

You Cassanova, you!!! Excellent. Maybe there will be a little dancing there? Good job......
Yes, studies have shown that humor is the number one factor women look for in a man. He could be George Clooney, but without that sense of humor...he's just another pretty face.
Make her laugh, the whole evening........where applicable.
