Not that this needs to be figured out like, now, but I figured I'd ask you guys for your opinions. I'm 18/f, he's 20/m if it matters.
There's a dance coming up here, and I want to go, because I love dances - they're fun, and an excuse for me to get overdressed, lol.
The problem is my boyfriend really isn't much of a dancer. I don't really want to go alone. I hinted to him that there was a dance and my friend was trying to convince me to go, but he didn't really say anything on the subject.
So - I guess what I really wanna know is if I should ask him to come with me anyway, even though he doesn't really like dances, or if I should just go alone.
Please lay off the chatspeak. If I have to read your answer twice to understand it, you're not getting a five. (Indeed)

I think that (overgeneralization ahead) women seem to expect men to know. The key word here was "hinted." I personally do things like this all the time, and we just expect them to know what is going on. Truth is, they probably just don't, so I think we should start telling them straight up.

Tell him you don't want to go alone, even though you know he doesn't like dances, maybe he could come for your sake. I'm sure he's willing to make sacrifices to make you happy.

If he still says no, even after you've blatantly asked him to come, go alone and have a great time with friends. He'll be sad he missed the fun and quality time with you.


5 You have a point about the "hinted." I just kind of figured I'd go into it later, if he responded, and he kind of ignored it, lol. Thanks =) (Yarr)
