This is precisely why I don't dance. As Bono put it "...the boys play rock and roll/they know that they can't dance, at least they know."

And Shauk, you're not an embarrassment to the human race. What you are is an embarrassment to yourself. Don't sweat it, we all embarrass ourselves once in a while. As above, I had to learn that my natural rhythm, while strong in performance and composition of music, does not extend to expression through movement. I embarrassed myself a couple times, then I learned to keep my ass off the dance floor. Now you need to do the same. Do not under any circumstances allow this girl to keep fucking you around like this. It's terrible that she would treat you in such a fashion, but if you let her continue you'll have no one to blame but yourself.
