The film created by air contacting the surfaces of water is what gives the feeling of wetness. Everything in between those surfaces is incapable creating that effect because only the film can do so.

Imagine a cube of suspended water. The six sides are wet due to the perimeter of air contacting the water. Anything that passes through will become wet due to adding to the number of sides (or contour of a single side) of the cube by the number of sides (or single contour) of the object, yet the area between the original surfaces and the created ones remains dry.

As the object is removed from the cube, it retains the surface created by it's insertion into the original cube which makes it feel wet.

Actually try this explanation:

Why wet feels wet? A neurophysiological model of human cutaneous wetness sensitivity | Journal of Neurophysiology

Although the ability to sense skin wetness and humidity is critical for behavioral and autonomic adaptations, humans are not provided with specific skin receptors for sensing wetness. It has been proposed that we “learn” to perceive the wetness experienced when the skin is in contact with a wet...
