After I dated my boyfriend since two years ago, I stopped dancing simply because my boyfriend thinks dancing is a very intimate thing to do and I should only be doing it with my boyfriend. Maybe he doesn't understand ballroom dancing is a social thing to do. I don't want to make my boyfriend upset so I stopped ballroom dancing. He promised me if I really want to go dancing, he will learn it with me.Sometimes I will hint about bringing him dancing on a Saturday night, and he will make excuses. I know he doesn't like to do something he's not talented infront of everyone, so I never make him go. I feel like brining him ballroom dancing might be asking for trouble. Everyone knows you change partners and I will obviously be asked to dance by other guys. I don't think my boyfriend can take that. Should I just not dance even though I miss it very much? Between my boyfriend and dancing, I think my boyfriend weights more. But is there anything I can do/say to let my boyfriend understnad what dancing is all about? Reply to this Question

 I don't think he likes the closeness you get with other men. I wouldn't be thrilled if my wife went out dancing every week with other men. I understand it's seen as more of a social thing. Would you enjoy it if he went to play darts every Saturday with a group of women. I understand you have no bad intentions and he's probably worried about nothing, he's just jealous. Does it show i any other ways? That is the big question. Even though I see his point, I'm not sure you should give in. I need to hear some other answers. I think people might let their guard soen because it's "ballroom" dancing but what's the diference really?
