Hello, all,
I’ve been very blessed to have found a ballet studio that is directed by a Christian lady with a passion for modesty and God’s glory. Having reached the pre-professional level, I’ve begun Pas de Deux a few semesters ago with a young man from my homeschool group who is totally on fire for God.
Here’s the rub, though: He is not at all interested in me, and I’m not at all interested in him, but his mom wants me and him to be a package, and some people have matched us up in their minds. It’s a bit awkward. We know each other really well, but are both pretty conviced that if everyone died off the planet save us, we’d be perfectly content to live single lives.
How do we show that to people? Any advice? Thanks!

What's This?
Being a good help meet starts long before marriage. It is a mindset, a learned habit, a way of life established as a young unmarried girl—or at least that’s the way it should be. Nearly every wife will confess that the first year or two of married life was—how shall I say it—a frustrating learning experience.

Me and this certain boy at our Church have been ‘paired up’ a couple times and same here – we are NOT attracted to eachother. So I know your problem but I really don’t know the answer! Hopefully someone smarter than me will see this post! 🙂
PS – A ballerina guy would REALLY not attract me! Even though ballet is very pretty. 🙂
Hi Rebecca.
I totally get your situation! -Ballerina too! 😉
Plain & simple here’s the deal… – No matter what you or this guy try to do or say to “Unpackage” (lol) yourself from the comments or opinions of his mother, or other people, NO-ONE is going to believe anything if they have already made you a “couple” in their minds, 🙁 As uncomfortable as it may be, sometimes just keeping your mouth shut is the best way to go.
I’ve had this happen and I’ve made a big deal about how – we were totally NOT interested in each other,- blah, blah, blah, and no-one believed a word of it. 🙁
So anyways, That’s just my advise for now, i know how things get once we ballerina’s reach a certain age and level of talent, and to say the least it is (can be) Awkward!
Best dancin’ 2 you dearie! 🙂
I have a fair amount of troubles with folks trying to pair me up. The best thing I have found to do is to just ignore it. Sometime the matchmakers will give up, and sometimes they won’t but I have never come up with anything that will fix the situation. (Except for one time, when I admitted to a Mom setting me up with her son, that I was actually interested in another guy. That really helped.)
