Strippers with sleazy boyfriends

Florida
This girl has a dirtbag boyfriend. I know this because he hangs out in the club, and every other dancer I talk to tells me this guy is a notorious user and manipulator. The 18 year old told me she met him on MySpace. He moved her in with him right after she turned 18, from Tennessee to Florida, and suggested she start stripping. Well, earlier in the week the girl told me she's pregnant. Yes, 18 and pregnant. And a stripper. With a boyfriend who sponges off of her. And she's totally happy about the whole thing, like having a baby is easy.
The club hosted a calendar contest for a local strip club magazine, and the 18 year old won---which included a $150 prize. I went to the club the next day. She told me about the win and the prize money, then went into a full court press to get me to buy a dance with her. "Don't you want to pay for food for me and the baby?", she said. Boyfriend douchebag is wandering the club tipping various other dancers. I asked her what she did with the $150 she won the night before. Her response? "Oh, I gave it to my boyfriend so he could buy dances.". Seriously.
Part of me is impressed that the boyfriend had the skills to do what he's done. He's ugly and works a low-paying job. And this girl is beautiful. The other part of me is horrified that someone is sleazy enough to take advantage of a dumb girl and ruin her life.
What a fucked up situation. This girl is in no way capable of taking care of a baby, and the guy just projects irresponsibility. I foresee this kid being taken away from them due to neglect. It's amazing to me this girl being unable to realize just how badly she's ruined her life.

Your example is typical of a lot of gals and the sleazy types they have for BF's. These guys will pimp them out too. I have had them even come up to my car while I was waiting to pick up a gal to take her to motel and say "she will be out in a few, you know how women are." Translation: He was probably having her do one of his friends before letting Maggie out to see me. A few min later they came out and another guy was with them (who the hell was he - a customer who lived there?). She was crying and they put two sacks with her clothes and things in my car. She told me I was going to take her "to a friends house" after the session. I guess it was just Drama Day.
Touche', chandler.
You can't help someone who doesn't want it (not to say that you were thinking about helping her in any way). Unfortunately it sounds like her sad fate is set. Nothing anyone can do.
There's probably even more reasons than those, but the job definitely weighs in as a big reason why they date who they date.
Samsung, I don't know where you get that whole free thing attitude. Here in AZ it is true as a single woman, you can get Medicaid health care and food stamps, plus a very small sum for child care. However, if you generate any of your own income, your benefits will be reduced, and if your income exceeds $8,000 per year, the benefits dry up. So, the "smart" girl will make $7,000 per year and get some benefits. That still puts her income way below the poverty line, and she will be going nowhere. If you take away the free stuff, then she can get 30 hours per week at Walmart or a fast food place to start. No benefits. Not much tax liability. Take home pay maybe $15,000. She is still poor, but now she pays for child care. Voila, she is worse off. I look at the problem not as the "free" aspect, but rather the "trapped" aspect. Remember, this hypothetical girl is not the brightest, not well educated, doesn't have skills.
So, bad boyfriend or welfare single mom? Or back home to whatever that is?
"Once she is pregnant and poor the government will give her plenty of welfare and freebies."
At least the government is good for something.
Once she is pregnant and poor the government will give her plenty of welfare and freebies.
Everything is gonna be FREE for her.
Free prescriptions, free dental care, free hospital visits, free STD testing, free food and drink, free housing, free checks sent to her or direct deposit into her account, etc. etc. Don't feel sorry for them at all...
Some people want to be abused and that includes men. The desire to be abused can be very powerful.
I think it's because I'm old enough to be her dad, but I don't have a romantic jealousy here. It's more a fatherly protector thing.
Surely this guy has her brainwashed. I'll bet he tells her she's stupid, and that nobody else wants her. He's probably keeping her away from friends and controlling her access to family members. The guy is good at what he does. He's just a dirtbag.
I knew a wonderful stripper with a very bad boyfriend. She thought she was worthless. I told her she could do much better so she asked me if I'd be willing to be her boyfriend. :(
I told her she was missing the point that she was worth a lot and should expect the world from a man lucky enough to be her boyfriend. She thought I was full of shit because I didn't want to be her boyfriend----I wouldn't want to be the boyfriend of the prettiest most successful woman in the world. I have zero interest in a girlfriend no matter how fantastic. The damn girl just refused to believe me and thought it was because she was unworthy---that her loser boyfriend was right. :(
Is she really going out with him?
Is she really gonna take him home tonight?
