What a fail I am. Big fail. Very big fail.

I had a dance tonight. And I don't have school tomorrow OR Monday.

So tonight, at the dance, I was confident. I was gonna ask someone I liked if he wanted to dance with me.

But I didn't. I didn't think any of the kids in our grade would be dancin together, but when they played a slow song a ton of kinds started dancing together. But I didn't, my friends didn't, and this boy didn't.

I was so close to asking him to dance with me when they played the last song, until I turned around and he walked away with his friends. The song ended, the DJ said bye to us, and everyone walked out of the building.

I told myself I'd dance with him, and when I think about it it would have been a very easy thing to do. But I didn't ask him: And while I was talking about the night with my mom when we were in the car, she got out to stop at a store and I cried, silent begging, hoping for something good to happen.

I WILL ask him to dance with me at our third dance. I WILL. If it's the last thing I do...

Do any of you guys have past experiences like this at dances? I want support here.

That's what I do everyday, but with saying Hi to someone i like x(

@Bunnyshadow Yeah...

It's different for me though.

I always tell myself that I'm gonna ask him to dance, when the moment of truth comes up I chicken out, and afterwards I'll be all alone in my room, practically in tears, the way I always am. Welcome to my life.

I felt confident... I don't think anyone would want to *date* me for crying out loud, but I just want one little dance with him to make me happy. If I can't even ask for that then I don't deserve it. T_T

I've made a sworn oath to myself that I WILL dance with him next time. Last dance of the year. I'll have to do it. And I will, no matter what...

Of course, if he doesn't even show up to our third dance? Life=RUINED.

@dreamer ... I believe in you! Go girl! X3 *Random sideline cheering yah*

Aw sowie @Dreamer. Tell me what is holding you back from asking him? Why won't you ask him?

dreamer • 13 January 2012 at 9:59 AM

@Plushie I don't really know... I'll be honest, I get nervous pretty easily. I was soo close to talking to him but he walked away with his friends and I was in tears later on.

Maybe I just need to push myself a little more. Set a goalfor what I want to do, and maybe giving myself a reward or forcing myself to not do something until I spit out the words.

I mean, a ton of kids in our grade were dancing together at one point, but that doesn't mean they had anything moregoing on... I'm sure he'd say yes, one dance wouldn't hurt... Then again who wanna dance with ME?!

@dreamer
Aw... *pats your back* I've never been in situations like this before, but maybe you can relate to the lyrics of this song?

Then again, I don't blame you if you don't have a look at it. Nobody really shows an interest in this kind of stuff on EC anyway...

@Dreamer aww.

plushie • 14 January 2012 at 6:20 AM

@Dreamer Awwww. Well sometimes I feel like its not going to be hard but I am never brave enough just like me trying to ask my dad for something.

Yeah you should

You deserve a good dance but I know how you feel it is just so hard and you miss out ): I end up in tears sometimes and I force myself to be braver next time. Tell me when the next dance is. I will help when it happens ^.^

@dreamer The Valentine's Dance is probably next for you right? 😉 Hehe. ❤️

I'd love to show you a pic of me at a dance with my bf. Except I wasn't dancing with him. XD Though with someone else. XD It's quite embarrassing. And funny.
