About the stripper thing, I've never met a stripper who didn't keep at least a few really light relationships between themselves and their customers i.e. giving a regular her cell number or even going as far as hanging out with people who might be potential customers.
A stripper I go to college with just pulled that stuff on me. We went out to lunch, she told me all kinds of sob stories, made me feel bad for her. We went hiking for hours and had a spectacular time, and she really seemed interested. The thing was that she was always suggesting that I stop by her 'work' to say hi or to pick this up or that.
One night she was supposed to be camping out and i was going to get the campsite. I called her up, she said I should stop by her work to pick up the tent. I get there and she's on stage so I throw down 2 bucks and she doesn't even look at me, barely does anything in front of me, then goes to the next chump. I got a chance to talk to her off stage and she was like oh my car broke down a friend brought me and i was talking about tomorrow night. Im staying with so and so tonight. Then today comes and she is going to a cookout and not camping all of a sudden.
The thing is that she had me pegged for a sweet lick, but she doesn't know that I don't go to strip clubs, I don't pay for sex, and I sure as hell don't have to pay to see some titties.
She and this other skeevy stripper I know have proven to me that there are few if any strippers worth their weight in water, let alone gold.
