I think all 3 styles have their place, but if you want the truth, Argentine is my favorite!

I pretty much agree.  I dance American and Argentine.  To me, each has it's appeal.

I met someone last night at a milonga and asked them how often they danced :
Her : "Oh I dont dance much any more"
Me : "Oh! you've managed to cope with the addiction, then?"
Her : "Well I have been dancing for 4 years now. And I danced all the time for the first year or so"
Me : "Oh"

left thinking
a) 4 years - is that all?!
b) It's the people with addictive personalities (like myself!) who find it hardest...
