Party Shakers-2
Four couples attended a party. One couple was you and your spouse; another was Rama and Sita. Some people shook hands with one another, but nobody shook hands with oneself or with one's own spouse.
After the party, you asked each person (except yourself) how many different people the person had shaken hands with. Each person replied with a different number--and each person's reply was truthful.
You shook hands with Sita. Did your spouse shake hands with Sita? With Rama?
