So my friend walks into one of my clubs last night...
So I have a friend who I was close friends with, and then we dated for awhile, it didn't work and we were able to remain friends again. We were close friends at one time. So last night he happened to come into a new club I was trying out by my other one. He doesn't know about my dancing mostly because we just haven't talked in awhile, and I only made a point to go out of my way to tell those closest to me.
Granted, he use to live in this city, but it's a city of a million people, and he moved some years back and hardly visits, so I was fairly shocked. When he saw me he just looked away. I decided not to say anything at that moment. And it's awkward enough to perform like that in front of my friends, let alone if they didn't know yet. Has anyone else had this happen? How did you end up handling it? We have become distant, but I'd still like to see him if I happen to be in his city, and he's there if I really need it. idk if I should make a point to hit him up and talk to him about it...
OH AND...let this kinda be a msg to ppl trying to keep secrets...u never know when it'll get out. This was a friend who moved some years back from this city, and is hardly there, but he happened to be in that city, on that particular night, and go into that club the one night I happened to be there....damn.

I don't see why you have to make a point to hit him up and talk to him about it. It's totally possible that he didn't realize it was you, so if you bring it up, you are 100% outing yourself. It doesn't sound like you really want him to know you dance, so I would just pretend it didn't happen and deny if he brings it up.

I was working at a nude club almost 2 hours away, and in walks one of my old coworkers from my predancing days! It's a small club, dances are nude and done out in the open, girls walk around topless or naked, he was definitely going to see me and see me naked. I decided to just act like it was no big deal. I walked right up and said what's up like we were in the supermarket or something, lol. He was with a group, including his girlfriend, and she tried to buy a dance from me for him but we were both like noooooo too weird. So one of his friends got some dances instead
Another time, at the same club, some guys I went to high school with spotted me. I had no idea at the time, because I was busy giving dances. About a month later one of the guys (who I am sorta friends with) texted me from my sister's phone (small town, they are in the same group of friends) about it. It weirded me out a little that they watched me give a nude lapdance, but again I played it off like it was nothing, but asked him not to spread it around town. He said he wouldn't, but it got out anyway. I kind of expected it though. Oh well! Almost my whole family already knows, except for my dad, and he's the only one I care about finding out.

idk if I care a ton if he knows, I guess I hadn't thought of it and was just surprised to see him there.
I agree with you though, I probably don't need to go out of my way to explain myself...

I always did kinda tell myself that if someone I knew walked in or said something I'd go ahead and own it.
I just underestimated how incredibly awkward it could be...

Oh yeah! Another time the recent ex of a friend of a friend cane in. This was just a topless club, and he was sitting at my stage. I almost didn't recognize him at first. A couple days later he started trying to talk to me on facebook, but I never responded.
Once some friends of mine showed at the club, because they thought I was working at a different one. I don't really count that, though.

Yeah, I feel like it would be more awkward if it was someone I was closer
to, but I hadn't really seen that guy since we were laid off a couple years before hand. So it was pretty easy to brush it off.

We use to be close, but hadn't been lately. What's funny is he was always the I hate strip clubs, they're nasty guy...
