Not sure where to put this, but I'm interested in customer input as well, so maybe here. Basically, it's the same old story. "My regular wants to see me outside of the club" is Stripper Dilemma #1, I know. But this is different, cause it's happening to me.![]()
I like this guy a lot, as a customer. Possibly if I met him somewhere else, we might have been friends, but where besides a strip club does a 26-year-old stripper meet a 47-year-old businessman? Still, we have lots to talk about and have enjoyed each other's company on some very pleasant evenings. He also spends good money on me -- not insane money, but I can make my nightly average off sitting only with him. Anyway, inevitably he's gone and gotten all emotionally confused and doesn't want to be my customer anymore, but wants to see me outside of the club and be "friends." He really schizzed out on me tonight and ended up leaving the club angry at me. All though he swears differently, it's pretty obvious that the version of friendship he has in mind is one in which he's waiting around in the wings for me to break up with my boyfriend. I don't need a friend like that.
I wish I could make him understand that being my customer isn't such a bad thing. It's not as though the fact that he pays me means that I don't like him. I pay my therapist, and I don't accuse her of not caring about me just because she wants to be compensated for her time.
I don't think real friendship is possible under these circumstances, but I really am sad, because I've gotten quite attached to him. I think I'm going to tell him that I don't want to see him outside of the club, and quite possibly not in the club either. Things are just too weird all of a sudden. But I'm going to miss him a lot, both personally and financially. I feel like I'm losing a good client. Like if I were a salesman and someone told me they would never buy from me again because they liked the product too much.
Sorry. This is pretty incoherent. But I'm tired, and more than a little sad.

If he's going to get shitty with you about something like that he's not worth your time even if he's paying for it.
