If a woman asks a man to participate in a dance routine, could this mean she is interested in something more?

Question

I am a ballroom dancer and this really lovely lady asked me to help develop and perform a salsa routine with her. I am an intermediate dance student and she is a new but incredibly talented dancer, not to mention that she is taking the entire studio by storm. Granted that there are better or far more advanced students at the studio, she chose me (I don't know if she had asked other guys at the studio to do this prior to asking me, but because she is very sweet and very attractive, they must have been morons to have turned her down, my guess is that she didn't asked anybody else). The reason I accepted is because I am extremely attracted to her. Could this possibly mean that she is interested in pursuing something more? Any ideas on how to handle this situation?

we are both in our mid-20's and as far as I know, she is single.

Answer 1

It's possible she is interested, but you should just take this as a partner for a choreography. If during the practices together you pick up some signals, then you can try to pursue it farther. But usually when a woman seeks out a man for a dance partner, it's because she likes to dance with him. I have seen strange occurrences in ballroom dancing where more advanced men will reject beginning women no matter how attractive they are.

Answer 2

My rule of thumb for "ballroom + attarction" is to divide your impressions by 10 to get a realistic piture. I.e. if you think she's attracted to you - divide it by 10. If you think she is the most gorgeous, wonderful, divine, charming, talented dancer in the world - divide it by 10, you'll be better off. Ballroom dance is designed to look attractive. Unless you're in it for a while, you can be easily mistaken.

She probably likes your attitude and the way you dance. She might actually like that you're an intermediate dancer. That means you're more likely to listen to her and not give your valuable opinion all the time. Other thing might be - you're the right height. As for "something more" - how can we possibly know? If other guys might have turned her down it doesn't necessarily mean they are morons. They might have other interests. If they compete in Latin seriously I see how they wouldn't want to spend their time on salsa performance. They might have partners. It would be rude to approach a guy who has a partner and offer him to partner up with someone else. Maybe she didn't even ask them, because if they look busy they wouldn't show up to half of the rehearsals anyway.

Answer 3

I would not get carried away and get your hopes to far up. She may have just chosen you because you have shoes she thinks look good or you have the right height. The whole essence of dancing is to get to know more about the lady in a very aesthetically correct or civilized manner. If she asks you to dance the last dance as well then you might try pushing a her a little harder. . .

Answer 4

A woman may or may not want more. Go and learn the routine, and let nature take its course. Learning a dance routine can be very difficult, so you can see what happens while under stress.

Answer 5

There are a couple possibilities. 1. She likes your dance style. 2. You're approachable to her, or 3. She's into you.
Open up to her and show her who you are if you haven't already. If she sends you flirty signals then thats your answer. It sounds like either way things go, she needs or wants your assurance.

Answer 6

see you r a senior for her.so one attitude of her can be in this way.and another way, you notice her way of dancing with you.notice while dancing she keep her eyes on you or not.and more over what you think about her if you r intersted then wait for good time and then tell your feelinges to her.i hope she will accept.good luck
