Actually, several women tell me that they indeed would slap any guy who dragged them onto a dance floor after being politely told "No." There's no sexist tone in my post, and your calling my tone "hysterical" makes me question your hermeneutics.
And if I had complained, I "would be looked upon with some concern"? Good grief.
I was just looking for practical advice on how to handle a difficult situation, and I get this patronizing suggestion to forget it or seek professional help. Anyone have something thoughtful to say?

You could have been a bit more creative: you could have introduced her to other men at this wedding, and even some women! That is, you could have played the "social pimp". Or, you could be a ladies' man by inviting other women to dance together with you in a group. This would lessen her influence on you, while giving you a sample of other women. Just don't get too serious at a fun party, though!
