Hate to be pedantic (

), but if you performed 5 1/2 moves, you wouldn't be in a position to repeat, unless the 1/2 move got you to the same hold that the first move started on, in which case it would be a valid move in its own right anyway, making 6 moves.
Anyway, CJ and Chicklet have given you the advice you need, and I can only add that the way you feel is very common, but the vast majority of good female dancers will be very understanding (but don't ask them lots of times on the same night).
If anyone encounters the problem Chicklet did, you could always point out that something didn't quite feel right, and ask if he'd mind going and asking a taxi or teacher so you could find out what you (not him) were doing wrong. Of course, having got him there, the taxi/teacher will correct whatever either of you is doing wrong.
