Skill level

I am convinced, and I will die on this hill, that the number, quality and frequency of strangers coming to ask you out for a dance is a strong solid indicator of how good you are at dancing.

I do not mean a random ask. I mean where strangers search for, will wait and beeline for you.

For example, the fact I rarely get asked by strangers (when they do it is a random ask) and I only dance with people I know, is a clear indication that my dance is lucking.

There are 3 things that greatly impact how often you get asked, in no particular order:
Attitude

Skill

Looks

If you are average in any 2 and high in any 1 you will get a lot of dance requests. Thankfully, you have some control of at least 2 of those.
