DH wouldn't dance to our special song

[marmitesarnies]

Last night, at a bday party, our special song comes on. We are standing in a group, I look at DH with my most alluring face, say "our special song, let's dance", but he didn't respond. It was humiliating.

Has anyone else ever experienced such rejection and what do you think should do now?

i doubt anyone else clocked your “alluring face”

Can't comment unless you post a photo of your 'most alluring face' 😂

He was probably mortified!

@marmitesarnies sorry op but you saying your most alluring face has me embarrassed too 😆

What does the alluring face look like?? 🤣

Oh come on, OP. Even those of us who have a "special song" would rather chew off our own leg than dance to it in public! Your poor husband. Assuming everything else is OK between you, please just forget this - it's not a big deal. It's not "rejection" and you do nothing (apart from carry on as normal).

Such rejection?
😅🤣

i’m guessing you were a very bit pissed and just surfaced with a horrific hangover?

He probably didn't want to make your friends all cringe any more than they were probably already cringing in response to your "alluring face".

There's a time and a place for this stuff, OP. And a birthday party with all your mates probably isn't that time or place.

Also here to see the alluring face.....

Were you a bit tipsy when you were doing this 'most alluring face'? Because I'm picturing you as being a bit tipsy when you were doing this 'most alluring face'.

"Ooh, love, is are shpecial shong, les dansh 🥴 💃"

Not if you are british, I guess.

Aw, we don't have a special song as such, but i would hope that my dh would acknowledge me at least if he heard it

I have . And it turned out he wouldn’t dance to “our song” because he was having an affair and felt guilty. Hopefully in your case he just didn’t want to dance in front of friends

you say you felt embarrassed op

but actually him not rising to the
alluring face was the very least embarassing action here

I hate to imagine how drunk you were and what your alluring face looked like. If this isn't usual behaviour for him I imagine you were less alluring than you imagined.

There are so many parts of this that I want to ask about... 😂

But the main one - why was it humiliating/a rejection? Lots of people don't like dancing in public, or public displays of affection. So he didn't want to dance. He hasn't rejected you personally.

Maybe he wasn't in a dancing mood? I love dancing in a lot of circs but when I'm not feeling it it's really embarrassing to try and I absolutely hate being dragged up when I'm not ready.

.

Flipping heck, OP, it’s not the 6th form disco! Nobody dances to “their special song“ in public. How drunk were you?

Have a bacon sandwich and two paracetamol and forget about it. And prey everyone else has.

(I’m now googling “alluring face” and wishing I hadn’t)

I expect he was embarrassed.

Depends! Are we talking the Macarena or Let’s Get It On?

What should you do now??

LTB obviously

Stand and deliver?

of all things to feel guilty about… not dancing with you was one of the minor ones!

This is a reverse surely??
But the answer is-
Agree never to mention your utter cringiness again and hope your friends were too pissed to remember 🤣
