I'm afraid, I think it just looks plain rude (whether it's intended or not, is another issue) not to look and smile occasionally, I find it quite off putting, if someone constantly looks over my shoulder or at the floor, it feels to me, like they would rather NOT be dancing with me.
You know, you could actually explain to your partner, you've not been dancing very long and you have to concentrate really hard.....If someone say's that to me, I usually melt and forgive them a million sins and just give words of encouragement!
I suppose it's just like talking to someone (and looking at them), some people find it easy, some don't! But people who don't look at you, do tend to look a bit shifty or disinterested!
Sorry, just my opinion!:sorry:
Mind you, theres a BIG difference between 'looking' and 'staring,' oh dear, how DOES one begin to explain????
By the way James, What colour are MY eyes then?
