Okay so I have a date for Friday. I wanted to do one thing but she convinced me we need to go to a bar/club with a dance floor, because she loves dancing.
Stupid old me, just happy that I got a date, didn't realize I may have bitten off more than I could chew because I'm not a good dancer, I hate dancing and for the life of me refuse to dance.
Have some drinks beforehand. Dancing requires being able to let go. It's when you're sober that you'll be too stiff and self-conscious. After a couple drinks, you may still make a fool of yourself, but you probably won't care.

Yes, if she loves to dance. You can be the suckiest dancer ever but if you at least try so will love it. So, suck it up and quit being so lazy!
but he wins major points if he at least tries and doesn't care if he looks "stupid" in front of me. I find it cute if he tries.
I think a lot of guys get hung up with thinking they have to be a great dancer when that's not true at all. It's all about enjoying the person you are with and not being "afraid" of how you look.
I'm pretty sure that even if I tried to dance just for her, me stepping on her feet every minute is going to put the kibosh on any benefits my looking foolish would give me.
Love to dance...but if you would just watch her dance and be appreciative of her moves that might work. However, as an earlier poster said, dancing does give you the opportunity for her to hold you and for you to hold her. It is an easy way to get up close and personal quickly.
There is one BIG catch: I know a guy who has women all the time tell him he "can't dance", when in actually, he is a formally trained dancer. Thing is, he studoes capoeira, a Brazilian martial art/dance that is simply beautiful:
The issue is, he can't dance WITH THEM, so the women say "he can't dance."
In my years of observing them, I have noticed that women have a big difference between what they say and what they mean, and also that they are allot more likely to be influenced by prevaling attitudes than men are. So, why a guy who can kind of mouth around holding on to a woman on the dance floor while remaining six foot tall and "dashing" is said to "know how to dance", my friend the 5'7 hippie with dreads and a scruffy beard doing back flips and hand stands in rythem to music is said to not know how to dance.
Dancing for women, like many MANY other things, is not about what actually is, but about the image of what is. As long as one had the image of a great dancer and knows what a woman expects one to be like, he can be a good dancer, even though he has two left feet while a great dancer who is not what women believe from the media, their girlfriends, society etc a good dancer to be is not, to them, a good dancer.
