Last week I was in my usual club, where LDs are $10. I almost always get dances in multiples of at least two so I can pay with $20s and not have to deal with change. My ATF had stopped by to let me know that she was going to the DR for a short break, and then she would be out to see me. I figured I had several songs before she came back, so I had time for a few warmup laps with another dancer.
I agreed to a LD from a veteran dancer that I occasionally get dances from, but don't know well. For some reason I found her dance less than inspiring, and as she was finishing the first song, I saw my ATF coming back out to see me, so I decided to stop at one dance. I gave my dancer a $20 and asked her if she would split it for me. She looked annoyed and said she didn't have change but would be back. I said OK and shortly had my ATF in my lap to start a nice series of LDs.
Well, veteran dancer never came back with my $10 although she walked right in front of me several times without making eye contact (my ATF was on stage at this point). I started to call her over and remind her that she owed me $10, but I think I felt bad about getting only one dance, and didn't want to seem cheap, so I let it go.
Obviously I didn't completely let it go or I wouldn't be posting this thread. The long term effect is that I won't get dances from her in the future, but in the short term, should I have reminded her that she owed me $10?

but I dont think it's rude to ask. She stole your change!! I dont do business like that coz I dont need to and I think it's wrong.
