Dear Lindsay,
I’m going to a dance and I want to know what to do when I am slow dancing. I don’t want it to be awkward and uncomfortable. What should I do?
-Tiny Dancer
Dear Tiny Dancer,
Slow dancing is the easiest dance known to mankind. You just put your arms around his neck, and just gently rock a bit, back and forth, going in a circular motion. It sounds weird, but once you get the hang of it, you’ll know exactly what I mean. Hopefully he’ll lead and you can catch up from there. You don’t have to stay perfectly quiet. You can just gently have conversation like, “I’m having a good time.” If he doesn’t seem like the talking type, then that’s perfectly fine. Once you’re out there, it won’t be as awkward. Just take in the moment and have a great time.
Dear Lindsay,
I noticed this guy at the gym who is really cute, but I feel kind of self-conscious at the gym so I don’t want to talk to him. How can I approach him?
-Crushing on Gym Guy
Dear Crushing,
Being self-consciousness about your body is something I know first hand, which is why I go to the gym myself. Remember, your gym guy is there because there’s something he would like to fix as well. Just be courageous. Get close to him without making it look obvious. Move to a machine by him, and swiftly ask him how you use it. This will somewhat break the ice a bit. From there you can work up a conversation. Ask him his name, see if he talks back. If he does then you’re getting somewhere. Ask him if he’s going to be there again the next day and before you leave, leave him with a flirty, “hope to see you soon.”
Usually a guy can tell if a girl is flirting or interested. I’m sure he’ll realize it. Maybe the next day he’ll even greet you first.
Dear Lindsay,
I really like this guy who is really nice to me when we are alone, but he’s a jerk when other people are around. What should I do?
-Bitter-Sweet dilemma
Dear Bitter-sweet,
You should never go for a guy who is two-faced. This would only lead to controversy. Obviously this boy has an ego and he feels he needs to save his “reputation.” You need a boy who will flaunt you around, and let everyone know that you are his girl. You’re better than that and you know that. You know what you deserve; a boy who will respect you and cherish you.
Dear Lindsay,
I have a new boyfriend who always wants to hold my hands and kiss me when we get to class. Is that too much PDA for school?
-Too Much Lovin’?
Dear Too Much Lovin’,
I think it is absolutely adorable when a boy holds your hand. It says that he wants everyone to know that you are his, and no one else’s. Walking you to class hand in hand and giving you a little peck or a sweet kiss on the cheek is nowhere near to much PDA (public display of affection). As long as you’re not full on making out, then its perfectly fine.
