Okay, I know the title sounds like a joke, but I mean it. I'll explain. I have been with a girl for one year now, I don't have any issues attracting women. I'd say in terms of looks I'm average to slighty better than average, I'm fit, got rather "eastern" traits like curly hair which a lot of girls here seem to find attractive and I can dress at least better than average, nothing too crazy.
The way I land with girls is rather humor and intellect, I really hope this doesn't sound pretentious because while I'm typing this it kind of does, but I guess confidence always feels like arrogance when you're not used to it. Anyway, that's why girls like me, interesting and funny conversations and I seem to be generally liked.
So my girlfriend is certainly shy in some situations, she can be anxious and we can talk about anything, for example insecurities and relationship issues. But on the outside you wouldn't really perceive her this way, she really is an overachiever. And by that I really mean overachiever, a perfectionist and although she always tells me about her lack of real confidence, she seems brutally confident to me in some situations. And I love that.
Now here comes the "issue": sometimes I can't really show enthusiasm or feel too awkward to do "normal" things, some types of behaviour feel like acts to me because I never naturally learned to do them. In conversations I usually am a confident person, but when it comes to stuff like dancing, wow I'm untalented as fuck.
The situation I don't know how to deal with is my girlfriend dancing in sexy or inviting ways, I don't know how to react. I feel awkward moving and I'm scared everyone else will think I look awkward. Like my girlfriend is twerking into my direction? I try to play it cool by smiling at her but deep down I wish I could get near her and pull some sexy or cool moves as a reaction. I just can't get myself to do that.
My biggest worry is that this will stay this way, usually in these situations my girlfriend just dances with her other girl friends, but I am so worried that if this stays the case and I don't learn how to act in these situations, other guys will approach my girlfriend or try to dance with her.
So please, I figured some of y'all could help me with this. Otherwise I'm really a rather confident person, but this thought/fear has shattered me more than once. I want to be able to provide this fun and be a sexy dance partner for my girlfriend.
