Hi there. I was at a club that I pop into now and then on my way home the other night, and there's a dancer who works there that I've talked to a couple times in the past when I was there. She's a cute girl, and she's very nice and I just enjoy talking with her, so I was there for about 5 hours the other night chatting with her in between the times she had to go on stage, and one time she was on the small second stage and it was full...probably about 15 people, so, I went up to the stage and gave her $20 and told her it was for everyone at the stage (which a couple customers really appreciated) So, after she got off the stage, she came back to where I was sitting and sat down and we started talking again, and she starts rummaging through her purse and she says to me "I have $20 for you." So, naturally, I was kinda shocked and said "What??" So, again she says "I have $20 for you....you put $20 up there." I tried to explain to her that it was for everyone at the stage, but she told me she felt bad because everyone was already putting up money. So, I told her that I couldn't accept it back. "This is what you do for a living" I told her. I mean, I have a great time talking with her and watching her dance, so, what's wrong with supporting her efforts with a few bucks?? Am I wrong about this?? And later that night I was going to grab her and I a drink and she offered to pay. Naturally, I refused. I don't like the idea of her feeling bad about it, but I'm just there to have a good time and she's there trying to make some money to support her kids. There's NO WAY I could bring myself to take money from her. Any thoughts on this?? Am I wrong??
