I just start ballroom dancing last week. I felt nervous last week, but now, NADA! How come I change my mind?

Your fear was based on the unknown. Now that you know what it's like, you're not nervous anymore.

I was scared too, but there is really nothing 2 fear, it's like before you perform on stage, you get butterflies in your tummy, but after you're out there all the fear is gone! Go for it!

You are opening up to a higher plane, my dear.  You have nothing to fear and are on the right track.  DO not let anyone deter you from your new path.  All will be revealed and you will feel wonderful.\n\nBlessed Be.

Trust me I know exactly what your talking about. I'm a fellow Sag myself. (Dec. 18th)!!!!!!!!!!! I find that I need change constantly because I get bored very easily. I'm from one thing to the next. It's like I feel like I'm missing something if I don't try to broaden my horizons. I also don't like to feel caged in no matter what the situation. We Sags love our freedom very much. I love to travel just like you. If I could have my way I would travel 95% of the time everywhere in the world. I want to learn things, meet unique and different people. Most of us Sags want to learn the truth behind things and we love meeting new people and places, especially if it's different cultures. Don't worry sweetie your not the only one that feels this way. By the way Happy Birthday in advance!!!!!!

Sounds like a case of depression to me.  I don't understand why "minor" setbacks should have brought this on.  The most important thing you can do is to get regular exercise!  Really.  The oxygen will revive you, exercise will improve your body, improving your body will make you feel better about yourself.  It's hard to start, but once you make it a habit it is a lot easier.  Next, I recommend some activity that connects you to other people, especially dancing--something vigorous, like ballroom, swing, Cajun.  It will give you a high, especially once you learn enough to feel confident doing it.  Third, perhaps you need a better job?

Ah now I get the question, thanks for changing it.  When you do something you know is right it's sometimes like dieing to be re-born.  They call it the dieing stage.  You can feel totally flat for a while but all of a sudden you will rise and feel stronger.  Each time this happens you feel yourself getting stronger and stronger.  Trust me it is worth it.  Keep at it.x

By accepting that you're there and that there is nothing you can do about it. It looks bad when you try to get rid of the nervousness. It looks like you're trying to hide something. If you're nervous, be nervous. It's ok.\n\nGood luck.

Actually, whether you admit it or not that is a result of some anxiety. You are indeed nervous. However, that can be controlled very easily. Take a class in performance anxiety. It will teach you a bit more about your problem and how to redirect your focus so that you are able to stop it from happening.

Part of why you don't like it is because you haven't learned how. It probably wasn't somthing done very often in your household when you were growing up. But this practice has been around for centuries. Back ages past it was a way to get close to a woman you were interested in, and if you could move at all and still smile sweetly as you gazed adoringly upon her, then you were the object of all woman's affections.\nLearn some older steps first in a classroom setting. It will give you a good foundation for learning more moves and modern dances. Once you've got the hang of moving your feet to the beat, and not being stiff kneed or staring at your toes... then you can learn some dances in a more social environment like a country bar and pick up some of those fun line dances.\nBelieve me a man who knows how to move on the floor will have more successful moves off the floor if you take my meaning. Plus it's a great excuse to hold a woman close, even strange women!\nEnjoy!

You're assuming that it's all your fault.  You have to remember, that in dancing, it takes two to Tango.  Perhaps her expectations were too high, or perhaps yours were.  We each go into a relationship with preconceived notions of what it's going to be and often it leads to disappointment.\n\nTake some time to check ourself out and list your good and bad points.  If you need to recreate yourself, work on changing the things that you see as bad habits and replace them with more positive ones.  You'll see a jump in your self esteem and confidence, and before too long you'll be happily in love once more.

Know what helped me with that? Getting my books and folders together a week before class, and being ready then. I found I was feeling apprehensive *then*, and by the time class began, I had moved past that and was ready to study. Also, I would get up in time for my, say, 8 a.m. classes a week ahead of time. I built up the routine, and as I said, got all the anxiety out ahead of time.

That's hilarious! Nerves can be really overwhelming at times.  They can cause your stomach to do cartwheels, the sweats, all sorts of things.  I think many men (in particular), think they will just show up and say their I Dos.  Then a couple of days before, they are rehearsing for things, having dinners, making toasts, then the final day arrives and it's an overwhelming amount of emotion plus all of the hype.  I'm making myself a bit nauseous just thinking about it!\nThanks for the clip!

Dancing is GREAT exercise for the body.  I'm not so sure about the mind.  Some of the stupidest mistakes I've made in my life have happened shortly after dancing, if you know what I mean?
