Wife won't follow lead

Anonymous wrote:In good classes you change partners after each dance. That way, you really learn how to lead. If you just dance with each other, you just learn each other's idiosyncrasies. Even if the woman feels you are leading badly she should follow. Otherwise, you wind up with the "low intermediate" problem. This is what happens when a low intermediate woman dances with a man taught by a different instructor. No two instructors teach the same. The low intermediate woman will say "you're doing it wrong!" A good female dancer will follow whatever the man leads, good or bad.

+1. She has to learn how to follow. It is what it is in ballroom dancing. To be a good dancer for a man is to lead well. For a woman, to follow well even if the guy is not good at leading. The whole point being to enjoy yourself and have a good time and not argue about your partner's skills (you are not in a ballroom competition).

OP is clearly PMSing, I am not surprised his wife took the lead.

OP don't listen to the hens in this forum. You did the right thing. If she wants to be unreasonable, then let her be unreasonable by herself. And f she wants to lead with another man, no problemo, plenty o' fish in the sea that is willing to follow. She is being completely unreasonable, and coming home and making light of your feelings says to me she is emotionally shallow, and disrespectful.
