Yes. Very good points Dubravko. And I complicate it further myself by asking favorite partners ahead of time for "the next Milonga" etc. Then maybe it's a slow milonga I don't care for. Ugh. <shooting-self-in-foot>
Or a lady will ask me to dance, but it's a Milonga and she's too new for that or too short for me to enjoy myself, and then I have to put her off until another Tango tanda that's more suitable. But most of these ladies I know pretty well and I can decline politely.
