How to overcome shyness at dances?

Sooo..well. I'm really a pretty outgoing person. I'm freaking crazy and I'm just..weird. I always make my friends laugh because I'm super hyper, but not annoyingly hyper. Anyways, the only time I become really shy is at dances. I can dance a little, move to the beat and all, but I cannot fully relax and move my hips and shizz..unless..I consume alcohol or something ahah. Anyways..how do I get over my shyness at dances? I just want to cut lose and fly around like a madwoman! I really get awkward when guys dance with me. They are basically dry humping you, and I'm shy around guys, soo..I feel super awkward grinding into their pelvic area aha. Yesterday I had homecoming(I'm a senior, and I'm still shy), and this dude I'm really crushing on grabbed my hand and asked me to dance, I straight up said ';No, I can't. I'm way too shy around you.'; because I was too nervous. HOW LAMEEEEE?



So wtf do I do..how do I get over this..without any illegal substances..or alcohol hah? HELPPPP.How to overcome shyness at dances?
Just tell yourself that you can do it, instead of reasoning with yourself even beforehand why you might act a certain way. You're just dancing, it's not like you're doing anything wrong.

Besides, if you act confident, creepy guys will probably see you as less of a target than someone who comes off as less confident.How to overcome shyness at dances?
I am exactly like you, i am so shy i sound like a mouse when talking to people idk. What i found works best is when you just GO FOR IT! even if what you do it COMPLETELY STUPID everyone doesnt care! SERIOUSlY!

just relax and dances are supposed to be fun. Don't worry about looking awkward cuz if you are having fun that is all that matters.
