This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

As someone who never dances, almost entirely due to social anxiety, I think you'd actually find that most people don't care what you look like while dancing (unless it's a competition or something). That's really the key, from what I understand: stop giving a fuck about whether you look silly or not. Most of the people already dancing look silly, they have just learned to not care and enjoy it.

As I said, easier said than done of course. Alcohol can definitely help.

Oh, I know that. Doesn't change my statement though, what I said is what's happening; how to handle it, I didn't really want to go into.

But yes, the solution is to not give a fuck, like you say. But that's only the second best solution, the first one is for that not to be necessary in the first place.
