When I was young, I remember my dad dancing with my mom in the kitchen. I remember thinking it was so cute and romantic, etc. There is no telling if it really was heartfelt or just something my dad thought he needed to do- but it touched me.
I learned very early on in my relationship that Damon does not dance. PERIOD. NO DANCING.
So one day at his apartment, louis armstrong was playing (not sure what) and Damon snuck up behind me and tried to dance with me. I thought he was teasing me... Seriously, thought he was making fun of me or something, so I made a brash comment in my embarrassment(that he remembers TO THIS DAY), then as he walked away defeated I realized I had done something really horrible.
That was at least 8 years ago and he has not tried since then.
I ruined my ONE chance. I embarrassed him, he was doing something SO out of character for him and I didn't get it.
So I mentioned it in the car today, it had just popped into my head and being that I have no filter between my brain and my mouth, I blurted out something about it and he reminded me of what I said. And I still feel like a jerk. I cried.
I could cry now if I think about it too hard. I hope someday he tries again.
