Please pay attention to me!

I've become more attuned to my surroundings, when I've gone out on my own. I've always been a people watcher. Social interactions are fun to watch.

While separated, I've started to pick up on things that women do to get attention. It's funny, how caddy some of these things are, yet most of the time we miss these subtle hints, leaving the girl to wonder, "is he interested in me?", "does he even notice me?".
Here's the deal.
There's this gal at the place that I dance at. I've never asked her to dance before, in all the years that I had seen her around. I finally asked her to dance and ever since then she has sought me out. She's a great dancer, and she has been complimentary towards me. She has been very touchy feely and very open, in conversation. She peaked my interest right, but I'm playing the cards close to the chest. There is another gal involved whom I'll get to later.

This gal, the one that has been seeking me out, recently gave me her number, without even asking. Telling me to call/text her when I go out dancing. I figured ok, I'll give it a shot. Last Friday I followed through and sure enough she showed. Most of the time she'll seek me out to dance, I'll dance with her and sit and chat for a bit before I go dance with others. It is social dancing, so I try to move around a lot.

I'm not really thinking too much about it, just letting it play itself out. She's an attractive gal and I'm a broken man, on the mend. So I back off a bit to find out that she's interested in another guy that dances there. So, ok, my feelings aren't hurt, there's another skywalker, in the waiting.

This last Tuesday I show up to dance, and she shows up. I sit on the opposite side of the dance floor, and here she comes. So I dance with her. This gal is a very bluesy kind of dancer. The kind that likes to dance really close in. So I oblige, while she writhing around sticking her ass out, etc. I can't help but notice all this, but I'm ignoring it. She comes back t me with, " you didn't even look at me when I did that". Mind you we're dancing in front of mirrors all this time. I did get a quick look, wow. I played it off and told her that I was paying attention to the music, and let it go.

I ran into her a couple times that night, not really sticking around while she's pining around for this guy. I'm not even sure I'm interested in her, I've been looking at another gal. She seems disappointed that she wasn't getting the attention and just kinda sat around doing nothing,looking bummed out. She wasn't getting the attention she was looking for. The dude she was trying for was busy dancing with other gals. Which brings me to this.

This gal is trying too hard. Trying to draw too much attention. It's a turn off. The people that I find attractive are the ones that aren't screaming "Look at me!".

On to the other gal. She doesn't scream for attention, and that makes her even hotter. Of course she's younger, it's the swing scene. The only problem is, is that she's moving out of state at the end of the month. Bummer. Subtle hints have been thrown my way, and I've been watching/listening.
How much clearer can you be, when her friend is clearly pointing at me when asking her if I had asked her to dance? I've known her name from the first time I danced with her, just haven't called her by it. Haven't really talked to her much either. She's a great dancer, and super cute. I danced with her twice this last week, which she seemed really excited about. I've got to drill down a lil deeper, hopefully she'll show up Friday.
