Good answer. By the way, anyone who has to work so hard that he sweats that

I would have made an excuse and left in the middle of a tanda if someone tried
that with me and I wanted to dance with him another time. Otherwise, I would
have just thanked him and left him on the dance floor. If, however, you asked
him to dance and you knew that he preferred close-embrace, then that's a
different story.

decency to present themselves nicely to you. Think the next guy asking you to
dance will enjoy being soaked by you soaked by someone else?
