Default Dancing with strangers

I am exceptionally skilled at getting in peoples way. If I find myself walking down a sidewalk, through a hallway, or across a wide-open field and another person is walking directly towards me, it’s as if we suddenly become confined in a tiny, invisible space. As we go to step out of each other’s way I will, and without fail, always step to the same side that they do leaving us awkwardly face to face again. This of course leads to the frustrating process of moving left and right together trying to step around the other person repeatedly muttering things like, “Excuse me” and “Oh, I’m sorry.” Eventually both parties step out of the way to let the other one pass, and then both attempt to take the others offer leading us right back into the beginning nose-to-nose position. It’s a vicious circle that I find myself repeating numerous times a week. I don’t even try to avoid the situation anymore, as I spot the other person walking towards me in the distance, I breathe a heavy sigh and prepare to dance.
