For the past 2 years my best friend was the manager of a bar/disco in the town where I went to college. I used to visit him frequently and would spend the evenings at the bar where he worked. I have always loved to dance. I usually go a bit crazy myself. The point is, I always found it difficult to get a woman to dance with me if the floor was empty. I would ask several women and got very discouraged with all the rejection. Then I would be very self conscious of asking them later for fear of appearing to be a pest. I don't think men or women are more or less afraid of being the first. I think it depends on the moods of the individual. ps. for what its worth. sparrow
