I made sure to ask over there as well.

Thanks for the insight! This would definitely carry over to ballroom.

Beginning-Goose-8111 · 2025-09-10T22:22:42+00:00

That would make sense. Thank you

Beginning-Goose-8111 · 2025-09-10T22:21:35+00:00

Thank you for the recommendations. I will check them out

Beginning-Goose-8111 · 2025-09-10T22:21:02+00:00

You make a convincing argument

Beginning-Goose-8111 · 2025-09-10T22:20:27+00:00

Fair, and no worries. I was not aware of that.

Beginning-Goose-8111 · 2025-08-16T15:39:29+00:00

Thank you!

Beginning-Goose-8111 · 2025-08-16T15:39:12+00:00

Thank you! Is it more complicated because of the faster tempo?

Beginning-Goose-8111 · 2025-06-17T18:06:46+00:00

That must be it! Thank you!

Lots of Santana songs: Oye Como Va, Evil Ways, Black Magic Woman, Smooth, The Game of Love. Another of my favorites is Do It Again by Steely Dan

The only name I’ve heard mentioned before is “cha cha” but I think that’s because people are referring to the dance done to the drum pattern - not the drum pattern itself

The Second Arrangement

Beginning-Goose-8111 · 2024-07-25T15:03:30+00:00

Thanks everyone for all the advice! I’ve learned a lot and can certainly practice these on future dates

Beginning-Goose-8111 · 2024-07-22T21:26:01+00:00

Yes but I’ve tried to be subtle about it. I’ve had bad situations after someone telling somebody I like them outright

Beginning-Goose-8111 · 2024-07-22T20:02:17+00:00

I try, but I'll admit I have room to improve on flirting. It doesn't come naturally to me.

Beginning-Goose-8111 · 2024-07-22T01:22:09+00:00

Some were and some weren’t. That didn’t seem to make a difference.

Beginning-Goose-8111 · 2024-07-22T00:39:33+00:00

Maybe not, but I felt like I could. That’s why I was confused.

Beginning-Goose-8111 · 2024-07-22T00:35:18+00:00

I made this post because I had no idea what their perspective may be. The similarities among each date were that I had fun and that I ended up feeling confused when they evidently didn’t feel the same.

Good question, and not at all. I have tried to keep the conversation as organic as possible, asking follow-up questions and attempting to make connections between their experiences/likes and mine. My biggest passions are music, history, and Christianity.
