WHY is it that if you ask a friend if they're free tonight they go on at length at about what it is that they are doing that means that they arn't and leave you feeling envious when a simple 'no' would do.

c**p
 
Ouch. Did they do this intentionally, or was it a serious lack of grace?

I would definitely say both. I have never in my life had to deal with this type of person before. To keep it general I'll just say that I was teaching a gentleman, and his s.o. was watching from the sitting area, long story don't ask... well 2 minutes into the lesson she started YELLING at me and was demanding her s.o. to dance with me b/c he's paying for the lesson (!!). This man was doing his part separately and I was talking him through it. He knew it perfectly well and I complimented him on it. She on the other hand screams at me that he doesn't know it! Then she interrupts again and said she needs to talk to her s.o. in the corner for 30 seconds. I asked what she needed to talk about and she looks to him and said she needs to talk to him now. I had to leave the room and get the studio owner to get her out of my lesson. He came in, saw what was going wrong, she starts yelling at everyone and said her s.o. can't lead her through anything and starts taking her shoes off to show us. The owner asked her to do her part alone... she didn't know it, stomped out of the studio to have a smoke. Wow.

I would refuse to allow her to be there without an apology and an assurance...
