You get close in dancing.* Deal with it.* I've yet to hear of anyone in the local dance scene upset over attempted gropes or anything liket that and I'm often dancing 6-7 days a week.


That you're taking lessons is good, but many places don't expect you to be perfect and I know many people that only go to one or two lessons before going to parties for salsa or ballroom dancing.


You're basically keeping her from doing something she loves.* I know if a partner tried to do that to me, or if I had to choose between ballroom dancing and a partner, the partner would go.* If you love someone, you love them and want them to be happy.


On a related note, I had a date a few weeks ago and we met at an Indian restaurant of her choosing and the first thing I put on my plate at the buffet was rice, just because I wasn't interested in what came right before it.* So she took time to check out what I was getting and said, "I just want to make sure you put something adventerous on your plate."


Then when I start talking a little about ballroom dance, she starts tensing up and doesn't even like hearing me talk about it.* Considering that I compete and expect to compete for scholarships one day, that was pretty much all it took for me to decide I wasn't going to see her again.* She wants me to be adventerous, but is so scared of even hearing me talk about something I absolutely love to do (and has helped me lose 7-8 belt notches so far!) that I realize I have to drop the subject in under a minute.


It's not exactly the same, but I'm not going to date someone that doesn't even want to hear about something I love.* How happy do you think she'll be if you keep her from doing what she obviously enjoys?* Yes, there's touching while dancing, but it's not about groping or feeling her up.* If you want to continue with her, then you'll have to deal with this.
thanks for your in put, just wanted to get different perspectives. I never said i wanted her to give it up, was just wondering if how i felt was wrong. I not a jelous guy but, this kinda situation is new to me. as mentioned, since i ve been seeing her she hasn't mentioned wanting to go with that guy nor have i said or discouraged it either. thank for you in put .

...


Salsa dancing is a "very" physically intimate dance. It's like having vertical sex, it's the only way I can describe it, so yeah,


...


I'd be a little more then annoyed if the guy I was seeing was doing a vertical Mambo with another woman.

Actually, that's Argentine tango. Robert Heinlein had a good quote (which I don't feel like looking up) that a properly done tango was like a marriage proposal or something like that.


Remember, though, there are all sorts of degrees in salsa, samba, and even Argentine tango. I know of places where there's a lot of bump and grind and others wher the contact is not that sexual. It does vary quite a bit and there's a good chance this woman is just out having fun.

I've done the mambo a few times -- don't you mean the vertical salsa? (Okay, I'm getting waaay too picky!)

Actually, I was intentionally using extremes and opposites to create a perspective for the situation. I gave you the most extreme points and it seems to have worked, since it made it easy for you to consider this not too unusual, just new to you.
