But, why would you invite her to do something she wouldn't want to do?  With 
people you dance with regularly, you know what steps or styles they, so you 
lead/invite accordingly, right?  I interpret "invite" as suggesting something 
so wonderful that, of course, she'd say "yes".

Alternatives to lead/follow?  Mark/Answer?  Call/Response?
