would you date or marry someone who is not a dancer?
- Thread starter yoyao
- Start date
Absolutely I would date or marry anyone I loved, whether they dance or not. My requirement is that they let me dance. Of course, that's a tough one. I've seen many new dancers pressured out of it by their spouses or significant others.
So, for me, it's easier to date dancers. You can't control who you fall in love with, so you kinda have to work with what you're given.
But, come to think of it, if you spend seven days a week dancing, thinking about dancing, talking about dancing, etc. the probability of meeting any non-dancer goes way down. :lol:
Oh yeah, and hardcore is definitely the word. :lol:

Ditto, on everything except I think I could control who I fell in love with, because if they were not a dancer, I wouldn't be interested in them. It wouldn't be the looks that first caught my eye . . . it would be the dancing, then the personality, and if looks WERE there - that is just more icing on an already delicious cake.pygmalion said:

Ok, a couple of things here...
If you are waiting for someone "let" you do anything, then
move on...I can't take being controlled (This one girlfriend tried
so hard to control me that in the end, I was with her to see how
much I'd pi*s her off when I wouldn't do what she wanted...is
that bad??)
Second, it's kind of hard being in a relationship with someone
who does not share your passions, however, if they are tolerant
of the fact that I will be dancing and they're ok with it...well
then I'm ok with it too..

Hey. I'm an extremely independent woman, and I don't need anyone's permission to do anything. But when I'm in a romantic relationship, I care about what my partner wants. A lot. And if he doesn't want me to do something, I don't do it. So, I'm looking for someone who wants me to do what I want to do.
Therefore, I'm looking for a dancer, who'll understand why I want to dance.
I'm an old-fashioned girl. Bottom line, and hard to admit, but hey, what my guy wants, he gets. I want him to want my happiness, which means my dancing.

It took me a long, long, long, long time to find that. When you come out to the West Coast and when you meet Carolyn, you'll understand what I mean! I am truly blessed!pygmalion said:Sorry, guys. I'm not looking for a man. I'm looking to find peace and unity with my God, the universe, my friends and family, and myself. Then, if I'm meant to find anything, it will come to me. I'm sure.

wow, took the words right out of my mouth. my bf (which will most likely become my husband in the future) doesn't dance ( :shock: ), but is very supportive of me dancing and having a professional MALE dance partner
Are you kidding? I've already had three (admittedly joking) marriage proposals without a picture. What in the world will happen when I do post one? :shock: :lol: I'm really not bad-looking.
Seriously, though, I'm working on it. I have a photographer friend who promised to scan some stuff in for me. Head shots, dancing action photos, the works. When he does that, I'll upload my avatar and a link to my pix.

MissAlyssa,
Sounds like you've got a great guy. Definitely a keeper. Is he just not interested in dancing? Is it possible he might want to in the future?
I ask because a woman who runs a local studio here, has a non-dancing husband. But, for her, he took enough lessons to get very good at her favorite dance. It was so sweet to watch the two of them waltzing together in an exhibition. And, even though she has twenty years dance experience, she let him lead. Totally sweet.
