We all know that drafting off someone allows you to go faster with less effort, I am wondering if being drafted off of slows one down? Anyone know?

Don't get me wrong, I have drafted of others but they did not ask me to stop. In fact I have let swimmers draft off me one in particular Abou Heif. He asked me to help him during a race to let him rest it was where he was one lap ahead of me, one third of a mile. He had a chance to win if I could make it easier for him. The way he drafted off of me meant he did not really have to make any effort. After he rested he closed the gap but did not win, and I came in third.
