On a COMPLETELY different story, my friend had a "mini" party at his house yesterday (About 10 people) and he lives with 2 female roomates. Anyways, we're all dancing and I am doing all my popping and waving and the one girl is all really impressed by it. She starts dancing with me (And I was just having fun I wasn't even trying to pick up on her) and her boyfriend later goes berserk. My friend and everyone calmed him down but I've never seen a person become so insecure. Granted I wasn't really the "cause" as they had been fighting before and this happens a lot I am told.

Anyways, I was just really confused by the entire thing. I've never cared who my girlfriends in the past ever danced with. Heck, I've danced with my male friends (Toprock battles, passing waves back and forth, etc) and it is always just for fun.

The ironic thing is this guy was a male cheerleader at our college... this was the first thing he announced when I met him. You would think he'd be secure in both that aspect and the fact he's around women all day touching them.

Every dancer knows at least one weenie boyfriend/girlfriend like that.

He's a loser. Make a mental note of this, and make sure that you do NOT take this personally. It's not your responsibility to downgrade your mentality to match someone else's.

As you gain experience with all sorts of people, and learn why they act the way they do (maybe), you'll start asking yourself more, and more, "I wonder what their problem is?", rather than being dismayed by how they act.
I can think of several things that might be going on (and I haven't even tried), and they are all about him, not you.

all of the above advice is good and relevant.

remember one point though - you can be kind even in the midst of being dismayed. or at the least, not be unkind.
