Five Minutes More
how can white men dance for more than five minutes without being blacked out or feeling awkward?
everytime I go out i find that the only way i can dance is if I am drunk enough to not care and even then I usually suck. I’ll start dancing for a couple minutes, but then I begin to feel awkward and just end up giving up. Are there any tricks or fail safe techniques or moves to get around this awkwardness, or is it just a fact of life… any suggestions appreciated.
First, nobody really looks at you or cares what you look like when you dance. They are a lot more interested in their own selves. No reason to be all that self-concious.
Second, get some dance training. It will give you both confidence and new moves.
Third, get it out of your head that white men can’t dance. If you think you’ll fail, you increase your chance of failure. And realy, what would you count as failure or succes in this case? I’d say, the only way to truly fail is to give up and step off the floor.
