Inviting a new friend to dance

There are lots of people I have never talked to in Ageless, or have talked a little and would like to get to know better.

So I thought that we could invite one of those people we like, but don't know wel, for a little dance around the Ageless Ball.

My first invited friend is Whiterose . I would really like to get to know her better. And while it happens, here goes my invitation!! I would like to tell you that I love your picture, you seem such a beautiful person and I'm happy to see your posts.

Now who is next?

SUPER idea Maria!!

Maybe we should go "boy, girl, boy, girl'?

But I think that might not fly, the guys always seem to hold back more than we do.

Okay, I am going to invite a YM that has been in touch with me in PM, but hasn't told me much about himself.
He lives in Romania and is in medical school.
He seems very sweet, (but a bit shy).
Tanzarom?

Thanks Maria for the kind words! That is so nice of you. I love this idea!

Okay, I choose Dan_Shues. I know that everyone here knows him better than I do. But, I am only beginning to learn about him after reading his post on the Real Life vs Internet thread.

I love his posts. He is so funny and a very creative thinker.

Come on Dan, let's dance!

I would like to dance with last1standing. I find his posts so incredibly intelligent and he is actually not THAT much younger than me.

Lets dance last1standing.

Awww, whiterose...that is so sweet...*smiles and hugs*

Let's Dance...
The last dance
Let's Dance...
The last dance...

Come with me, darlin....
Let's Trip the Night Fantastico! Woooo!!

Whiterose, you are such a sweet woman, and I know you have a heart of gold. We got to speak through PM's...and, I could just feel the tenderness in your words, and I know, that extends to your heart and soul...

Now, your daddy don't mind
And your mommy don't mind
If we have another dance
Just one more

One more time

Oh, won't you stay
Just a little bit longer
Please let me hear
You will say that you will!

Somehow I knew Dan would be a good dancing partner. He's got that boogie thing going on.

Lets dance last1standing.

...but for Swan I will try. She is an inspiration to everyone here that has ever been dumped on by life. Where other hearts might have become hard and bitter, she quietly carries on; and always seems willing to lend a shoulder to someone else in need.

“When we come to the edge of all the light we have and step out into the darkness of the unknown, we must believe in one of two things. Either there will be something solid there for us to stand on, or we will be taught how to fly.”

If -- after all she’s been through -- Swanqueen still has enough courage to step forward into the darkness each day, then how could I let my little fear of dancing keep me in my seat when she asks?

Oh wow... I am speachless... and you know how seldom that occurs :D

I have to ponder on this last1standing. I am .... speachless.

nice thread maria! There are so many here that id just like to hang out with for a few days/months...ya know. Id love to dance with special K becuz i want her to teach me jazz...i have the soul of a great dancer, but need the moves man:D...hey special, wut u teach in that studio? and babes, badDreamer....those two need come have dinner wif me...I could name everyone here as dancing with others is wut we doin this life for....id like to get to know everyone a little better than this internet thing/time allows.

Dear Swan...

last1 has described your beautful self with his written acceptance of your invitation to dance. His post is written with such eloquence and obvious insight into the person you are. I'm smiling and crying at the same time. May your dance-card be forever full with such partners.

I TOLD you he was an intelligent poster :D Thanks so much last1 and Gillian. Now to deflate my head so I can put a hat out before I go out in the cold. :D

last1 intrigues me. I have read his posts over a few times, not a difficult task because there aren't that many. I am struck by the fact that his resposes are as I mentioned intelligent, but also that he is willing to share from that place inside that still seems to hold some pain. He is honest.. it seems anyways, and is willing to admit shortcomings. He displays compassion, love and respect for people. He has a great sense of humor but isn't one dimensional. He can laugh and feel.

I wonder why he isn't with someone who appreciates him, but then why aren't many of us.

I would be honoured to accept your invitation Babes.You are truly a beautiful woman who has made me feel incrediblywelcome, and I would love to get to know you better.Plus I'm sure I would have a great time with someone like you at a party.:D

Difficult to say...maybe evn U2..........but I'll let the lady decide

oh now...come on u guys....ILLINOIS isnt SO FAR....thinkin that u shud come dance HERE tonite....ill bring a few friends so u two can dance alone=) lol.

Anything you want me to bring Sing?.....Babes I'll pick you up around 8:)

babes u can bring any kind of wine u desire....wine makes me goofy...well goofier than i already am:D Ima stock up on miller lite or that new michelob ultra beer...and irishguy...just bring babes...well have a great nite....anyone else wanna join us tonite...what time we meetin anyhow?=)

Look forward to it Sing.......U name the time and I'll be there....and I'll bring Babes if she lets me

I will ask my second friend to dance, now...someone I don't know very well...but I enjoy her posts so much and she's such an intelligent and yet not arrogant person...

Desert Spring!

But I doubt she reads the chit chat!! :D :)

Wanna dance Babes?

This could be tricky....so many people so little time

You don't know me yet!!! And I haven't been invited! ;)

Me either, Maria! Im a wallflower! Im not about to put up with that....

So, although I don't know very well, I have ao admired her openess and her strength in her posts...and I would like to invite Sage!

Sage, come on into the party.

<b>*I walk back into the thread, still dressed to the nines. (Take a look at my one pic from '98 in the photo album to see what I might look like) Anyhoo...I stand thier...*</b>

Whew! Whiterose wore me out...but, I'm back and ready to trip the night fantastico....AGAIN! *LOL*

There is someone I've seen in the chatroom a few times, and I would like to invite her to dance...

Bubleee?

How about ya come on down and we'll have ourselves a lil fun? *smiles*

You want a man with a slow hand
You want a lover with an easy touch
You want somebody who will spend some time
Not come and go in a heated rush
Baby believe me I understand
When it comes to love, You want a slow hand

steps onto the dance floor in a strapless red ballgown and proceeds to dance tenderly with Dan

How did you know I love a man with an easy touch :)

It's wonderful to have met you in the chat room! You've picked up on my sparkling personality and made me feel so welcome. And we have so much fun, don't we?

And I have a weakness for Yuns from Western Pa, lol.

I am honored to dance with you Dan. You are truly a gem who makes alot of people happy and smile on this board! Thanks for being the man that you are :)

Now I guess I have to spread the wealth here and ask someone to dance, I'd like to ask Mac, who I met in the chatroom. He likes coffee and said he would drive me to Starbucks, if I wanted to go, even if he does live on a farm. I appreciate him laughing at my jokes, and he's very very smart.

Let's say we show these folks how it's really done, Mac! ;)

Since Maria and I are planning an orgy together, it seems only right that I ask her to dance first. I mean some partners are so thoughtless ... it's just wham, bam, turn on your webcam. I am much more sensitive. :p

Thank you Joannalee!
I was always one of the "wall flowers" at the school dances, so I'm excited to be invited here!
LOL

Is it still accepable to do "The Bump"?
I am not the most graceful slow dancer, so will just have to get out there and "shake my booty" to the fast dance tunes.

Remember the days of dancing to the "drum solos", (and sometimes they were soooooo long)?
LOL

okay, my turn to ask someone to dance?

I have enjoyed reading the posts from this nice YM and he has shared some great poetry with us too!.
Hey Haunted, wanna dance?!

<b>*Dan walks back into this thread, holding a very large bottle of Gatorade. His tie is off and his collar is open. He combs his hair back into place*</b>

Whew! I'll tell ya'll something, Bubleee is a wonderful dancer. Thank you for the wonderful time, Bubleee. *smiles* Thank you for the kind words.

I'm a dancing fool, evidently. And there is someone else I want to invite to the dance. Right now, she is going through some rough times...a stuggle inside of her heart. I see a very strong woman in her eyes...and I would like to get to know her better. Kerri...would you like to dance?

*smiles*

<b>*Dan cues the band*</b>

<i>In the still of the night
I held you
Held you tight
'Cause I love
Love you so
Promise I'll never
Let you go
In the still of the night

I remember
That night in May
The stars were bright above
I'll hope and I'll pray
To keep your precious love
Well before the light
Hold me again
With all of your might
In the still of the night
(In the still of the night)

So before the light
Hold me again
With all of your might
In the still of the night
(In the still of the night)
In the still of the night </i>

Awww Maria. That's so sweet :>

I like the tango. Can we do the tango :>

I do read chit-chat - eventually. It just takes a while to get through the mountains of posts.:D

I'll ask two people whose posts I find neat:

Patricia and Cindy...

Next .......?

Oh Dan, it's such a rainy night, and I so love to walk in the rain.
Let's take a walk in Pittsburgh from Squirrel Hill all the way down 5th Ave....all the way to The Point.

(as they walk, she is thinking of how to get closer to him...)

"Dan, It's so cold, colder than I thought. Will you hold my hand?"
He takes my hand.
"It's so warm next to you."
(Turns, gazes into his eyes, they both smile and begin to dance, right there in the street, right in front of Carnegie Mellon U.)

"Hold me close Dan....dance with me in this rain..."

For You
(1998 ©coldplay)

If you're lost and feeling low,
Circumnavigate the globe,
All you ever have to hope,
For two,

And the way you seem to flow
Circumnavigate and hope,
If you seem to lose control,
Wherever you are

Everyone of us is high,
Everyone of us is low,
Everyone of us is here,
How about you?
Your eyes are closed,
Your head held low,
Your eyes are closed.

Everyone of us is high,
Everyone of us is low,
Everyone of us has hope,
For you


A crowd of students from CMU have gathered and *cheer* when the dance ends, we smile, bow and keep walking....

*soft smiles*

Could someone please hand me my eyes and jaw? They both have hit the floor....

My god, Kerri...

That was...simply....beautiful! No other words to describe it! Simply, absolutely, utterly...beautiful.

I'm actually sitting here with a soft "Dan" grin and even, misting in my eyes...if you know what I mean. Thank you for such a warm and loving dance and evening, darling. Your knowledge of Pittsburgh is exquisite. And, you dance divinely...

To see your smile...
To see your eyes....

The spoken word can not begin to explain...the warmth and the tenderness that resides...in them...

<b>*Bows down before you, taking your hand in mine and kissing it gently. Stands up....and scoops you up into my arms, in front of everyone. Softly sings the words...*</b>

Even here there's nothing...
As original as you...

<b>*Smiles tenderly....*</b>

Thank you, once again, Kerri...for the wonderful evening...
And thank you....for letting me get to know you....
Such a tender hearted woman....such a beautiful person...

<b>*Softly whistles the tune to "Unchained Melody"....as we continue walking once again...*</b>

:D :D See why you are my type? I take it you know how to dance a slow...I accept, of course.

And DesertSpring, you read the chit chat, now that's a relief, I feel less bad for spending so much time here...in this silly part of Ageless...;)

I think I'll break my own rules and invite someone I know well, because we've been so busy to talk to each other that the only way to meet is here.

LadyinGreen, who has slept here in this same room where I'm writing from, would you dance something Latin with me?

Singalou .. would you like to dance?

It's Disco-Night at "Buster's Fun Hut" !!!


:)

Nav....Id love to dance....ahhhh remembering those disco lights...the beegees, LOL=) and who can forget good ole donna summers=).....BUT...buster's fun hut?=) Ill need more info=)

what to wear, what to wear???=) hey nav...u have a white polyester leisure suit=)?


OH and polly will u bring the chickens and come hang out on my dads farm for a weekend....we can dance in the fields now that the combine finally works=)

Hey Singalou baby!

Indeed I do have a white leisure suit.. and this time I will toss the black tie.. for a blue tie to match your gorgeous baby blues!

Hmmm what should you wear??? Well.. surprising me isn't out of the question.. but... wouldn't mind seeing you in a white sequence dress... wowweee!

I'd be the envy of every man in the funhut.. including Buster himself!


First my name in the phone book.. and now Singalou accepts a dance invite with me!!!

Things are gonna start happening to me now!

well nav...thanks to a lovely ageless member i now have an idea of BUSTERS FUN HUT, LOL....told her i shud watch more steve martin...but...i dont really like him, HAHAHHA. No offense intended...i did see him dance once SERIOUSLY...he's not too bad=)

Id like to invite Kerri to dance....hey kerri? know any swing steps?

Utoh.. which lovely lady told you about the funhut? lol..

Did she tell you to run for higher ground?

.... has finally recovered from that thrilling dance with Dan the other night... walks up to John-311 and asks him to dance... she really loved his post on Dan Shue's "Name that Caption" thread about the kitty who was secretly given Folgers.

Oh my gosh, you all! How long am I going to have to stand here and hold this punch bowl???? *pout, whine, pout*

You know, I was never asked to dance when I was a younger Dan_Shues going through puberty...and I can't stand to see a pretty little standing thier alone...

<b>*Walks up to the punch bowl....*</b>

Well, Jody...who's it going to be? That punch bowl or me?

<b>*Extends a hand...*</b>

<i>Maybe I didn't love you quite as good as I should have,
Maybe I didn't hold you quite as often as I could have,
Little things I should have said and done,
I just never took the time.

You were always on my mind,
You were always on my mind. </i>

Am i too late to dance, or is it ok? Hope you're not like Cinderella!

I'll stand and hold the punch bowl with ya.. I got an idea.. let's spike it. We'll have more fun NOT dancing, since no one has asked either one of us! :( By the time we're done drinking all the punch, we won't be able to dance! :o

hey
GenevieveGenevieveGenevieveGenevieveGenevieveGenev ieve

Oh my, of course you may. Good thing I have not had too much punch, or I'd be stepping on your toes! Careful about the whispering in my ear, I could melt. LOL :D

Thank you for the dance!

*Maria comes with the broom and hands it to Navin*

Now it's my turn to dance with Gen, if you miss her too much, come back with that broom in five minutes...


:D Do you use the broom for that (to steal someone's dancing partner), too, in the US?

Wooohooooo! I get to dance with Maria! :D Let me get my bearings, Navin spun me around too much and I'm a little dizzy. :eek:

Ok, let's go girlfriend!

I've never heard of the broom, but I like it! I think we should start that here. :)

PS. I just thought of something. What if the broom is a better dance partner? :)

Hey, how long will it take for someone to come with that broom? I love Gen, but we have been dancing for hours now...:D

***approaching babes cautiously; one never knows how these deities are going to react***

(summoning all of my courage)

Babes, might have the pleasure of this dance? You are one of my favorite people here on Ageless; always here with good advice for anyone in need of it. And besides, I have always had a thing for Scottish accents…

Originally posted by babes66
............. perhaps we can find a quiet nook to chat after our dance?


Yes, Babes, I think we can!

((Acknowledging babes eye contact…trying really hard not to lose myself in her gaze and forget to speak))


Hmmm… Well, I’ve never seen the Scottish countryside… which I understand is very pretty. But in your presence Babes, I doubt that I would be noticing the landscape much anyway, so how about my place?

Careful girls, these two are dangerous, and they still got the broom...or is it? OOps...:D

The broom...and Babes punch bowl...have been given to Trish!

I think this whole thread is dangerous! lol

Im glad Im over here just dancing with Dan...where I can feel safe and not have to worry about punch bowls or BROOMS!


However, I think Dan and I have been dancing together for like...oh...maybe three or four days! Dan, are you still awake?

*laughing*

Yep, I am....

By now...they've poured gatorade on us...

Which, I must say, affords for quite the eyefull. *LOL*

But, I think the band is catching on. I think I hear them wanting to play, "Dizzy! I'm so dizzy, my head is spinning!" *LOL*

Hey, Jody! Let them have there brooms....

I get to dance devinely with a lady for over four days! They've been swapping partners around, and so did I until I found that our bodies matched good together for the dance...

Sooo...

<b>*Sticks tongue out at the rest of ya*</b>

Hehehe....

Well Babes, it seems that we have some interested onlookers!

Shall we give them something to talk about, my dear?

((tipping the band leader handsomely to play Por Una Cabeza for us))

:::mischievous grin::: A tango, perhaps?

Greetings Genevieve

Thank you for the first dance, may I have another?

Was the whispering working for you? I don't think you began to melt... although you were swooped away.. leaving me with nothing but a broom... I was about to blow in your ear..

Is there a competition for that? :D

lol too funny

Hey babes...do you give lessons in freestyle flirting? :D

Hey Treb, cutie...wanna dance?

I would be honored to dance with such a nice person with whom I share a state of residence with ;)

Gotta hand it to Onetiger...she sees something she wants, and goes right after it! :)

I think we should revive the Flirting thread...:D

I'm all about the flirting thread!!! And yup, last...I'm not at all shy...nope, not one bit...particularly in this instance...Treb has shown himself to be one heck of a good guy on these boards! Who wouldn't want to dance with him?

edit: plus he's such a cutie! :D

^5 for Trebmal!

There you go, guy! A lovely, intelligent lady knocking at your door...life is good!

Your skills are going to waste Trish, grab a new partner and move over to the flirting thread! ( although so far there are no guys there...so you'll just have to practice on us!:( )
Wow, that is so cool about "True Lies" being filmed where you live!
I LOVE the tango scene in that movie! and the one in "Scent of a Woman" and of course "The Adams Family", hehehe, I just love the tango!
So, talking of movies......Stan, have you seen "Dirty Dancing?;)


hey... I'm in there! I think hehe .. and I know im a guy :p
