That was the first thing I listed. You have access to the Internet, you can get really good at dancing just watching YouTube and practicing what they do. Less fun initially I'm sure, but doable. Also my God does dancing make women more interested in you if you're a dude. It's not magic where they'll suddenly flock to you but it's a lot easier to buy a girl a drink after you've made her laugh or spun her on the dance floor. So, there's some extra motivation if it applies. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] GBU_28@lemm.ee 6 points 2 years ago Lots of people can't even conceive of stepping on the dance floor. I find especially here on Lemmy, lots of folks are really introverted and not agreeable to "get out there and try" style challenges. Obviously not universal, but seems quite common here. Folks seem more apt to say "I have limitations that are immovable and that's the end of it". Gotta respect that life they are living, even if for folks like you or I we are motivated differently. permalink fedilink source parent [–] caseyweederman@lemmy.ca 1 point 2 years ago All the alcohol in the world wasn't able to push me through that insurmountable mental block. I've since quit drinking, and I've also quit trying to force myself to be a person who can dance. It's just not in my bones. permalink fedilink source parent
