What would you do?
I used to LOVE ballroom dancing. I would regularly go to swing, salsa, and waltz clubs, dancing the night away. I even won a salsa competition once for moves I invented with my partner (friend). I know 3+ different kinds of swing…
It was a huge part of who I was.
My husband can dance one kind of swing and the two-step, but even then is pretty limited. Enough for me not to mind at weddings etc, and for the first 5 years of our relationship. We’ve now been together 9 years.
I’ve hinted and told him outright that it would mean a LOT to me if we could do a class together so we can *really* dance. He feels like he can already dance fine? Just having a good time? He doesn’t get it.
What should I do? What can I do?
No guy is going to ask a pregnant lady to dance 😂 And besides, I’d feel weird standing on the edge of the dance floor like a single girl after years of marriage lol

Go without him
What do you mean no one would ask a pregnant lady of course they will. I saw one last week at my salsa social 😂 I go every Friday to mine, for 3yrs now. He’s not a dancer he never will be, doesn’t wanna learn (I asked him at the start, told him to come w me) and anyway, we need someone at home to look after baby 😂 if you like dancing then go mama. I only started 3yrs ago but it’s consumed my life since. I actually have PURPOSE now. And yes putting on a dress and pretty heels on a Friday night doesn’t hurt either lol.
You are inviting him, he doesn't want to join, you go and do your thing without him.
I dont know how to dance professionally all though I loved dancing my whole life I want to learn professionally. If my husband would joìn me all my couples dance dreams would be fulfilled he says he will but we'll see
