#ThatAwkwardMoment: Down to DFMO?

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Georgetown chapter.

So girls, although no one likes to admit it, everyone has done the dance floor make-out or DFMO as my fellow blogger Celee would say. No matter how it happens – it is just awkward. Even if you are getting with Bradley Cooper in the middle of Rhino, and you are the happiest person on the planet Earth, it does not prevent it from being awkward for everyone else around you (Plus, if it was Bradley Cooper you would be going at it, because it is freaking Bradley Cooper!)

Anyway, so one of my good guy friends participated in a DFMO that was a tad more awkward than usual. This consisted of my totally drunk friend hardcore going at it in the middle of the dance floor. When I say hardcore, I mean they-were-bending-forward-and-backward-and-still-moving hardcore! I don’t even know how you can move as much as they did and still stay connected at the lips, but they somehow managed. Then, this DFMO continued on and on and on, until the lights came on to signal closing time. So when the two of them FINALLY came up for air, they realized that they were two of probably ten people left. You would think that I’m going to tell you that they were embarrassed and left, but NO. The bouncer was staring at them so my friend decided that the best thing to do in his current situation was to continue making out! Plus, my friend gave the bouncer a thumbs-up as he was making out with this girl. They then, proceeded to get kicked out of the club and I am sure they were reaching for each other’s lips the whole time. To top the whole night off, he does not even know her name (men -__-)!

            So when (I say when because you will) you participate in your next, or first, DFMO, think of my friend. If you are going to do it, do it right. Move to the side a little. Try and refrain from big movements. If the lights come on, please STOP, but I assure you that as embarrassed as you will be, you will not be as awkward as my friend. That should make you feel a little better. Right?
