My friends embarrassed me tonight

A friend of mine knows I go to strip clubs. He's always telling me about how he and his wife are freaks. He talks about how much porn they watch, and of their escapades having sex at a porno theater. When he asked me if he and his wife could come with me, I thought I'd be in for a good show.

I've seen couples in strip clubs before. The dancers have usually enjoyed having the civilian girls there, and the girls were usually game. Not my friends. The wife didn't want any dances. They BARELY tipped girls onstage. One dancer sat with them for at least an hour, and they gave her two bucks.

They spent all their money getting hammered. That benefits the club owner and bartender(tho I don't know if they tipped decently) but not the dancers at all. Embarrassing. It's taken me a while to build up a rapport with the staff here. I don't have to pay cover. I get free drinks from time to time.

But no, these two chose to get shitfaced and make out with each other most of the night.

    who cares what a strip club thinks of you!? They are your real life friends, not just "in club" friends like the people at your strip club. Once your cash stops flowing the strip club friends will ignore you but your real life friends will still be there.

    I guess I should clarify. Not real friends. More like acquaintances. I know the guy from the gym and just met the wife.

    Still pretty low class move. Irked me, is all.

    Strip club "culture" (i.e., how to behave) is something you have to pick up. Everyone on this site pretty much knows how to act (even if they choose not to act that way), but some folks need an introduction. Perhaps a little education was in order.

    I like my stripclub "friends" better than my real friends. My real friends are boring.

    It appears they are into themselves wherever they go, oblivious to their surroundings. The SC knows you and I am fairly confident their opinion of you did not change.

    steve229- sounds like your real friends probably need some livening up, try bringing them to the club

    Same here Steve. I only hang with real friends because it's cheaper.

    Steve, my memory's a little foggy - was "My Friends Embarrassed Me Tonight" a Smiths song? Oh wait, this isn't a Steve thread. Never mind.

    Stripclubspy---I sent a couple of dancers over to ask the girl if she wanted a dance. She said no. The husband wouldn't buy any for himself or the wife. I maintained my usual routine and spread my money around. One would think watching me would have been an education.

    Got some texts from dancer today. They wanted to know why the couple came if they weren't going to have fun. Weird.

    Based on the subject matter, the correct song reference would be Joe Jackson"s "Happy Loving Couples":

    Happy loving couples make it look so easy
    Happy loving couples always talk so kind
    Until the time that I can do my dancing with a partner
    Those happy couples ain't no friends of mine

    You ain't no friends of mine!

    Your acquaintances didn't know how to act around other people. They did all their freaky stuff at home by themselves, or in the darkness of a movie theater when nobody was watching. At the club, they ran for the hiding place that getting drunk provides in social situations.

    I bet the club will forgive you. They know you still "spread the money around" and that's all that really counts anyway.

    Yet another reason to go to clubs solo.
    I'm always hesitant about taking "newbies" to clubs with me, especially other women. I've had to do alot of damage control over the years for some inappropriate or downright bizarre behaviours that some of my un-initiated friends have exhibited.

    Like mmdv26 said, you'll more than likely be forgiven - but friends/acquaintances sure can be a pain in the ass sometimes, eh?

    Yeah, definitely not taking them again. I get a vague threesome vibe from them. Kinda creepy, actually.

    next time you are at the club just crack jokes about what losers they are...it will build up your alpha male character to the strippers. As long as you keep spending they will like you.

    Steve:

    Nicely done. Joe Jackson. Sheesh!

    Yeah, apt choice, Steve, although the line about dancing with a partner takes on a different spin now in view of Mr. Jackson's, uh, lifestyle disclosure. Future thread titles I could see coming from Steve: "Is She Really Going Out With Him?", "It's Different For Girls"...

    I don't like taking friends or acquaintances to my regular spots until I know how they behave. As you found out, they could be jerks. I've also experienced where they think you are going to entertain them with your antics. At a minimum, they expect some kind of free lesson. Takes away from the fun you were going to have. Take them to a non-regular place if you must. I've got one friend that spends the bare minimum but is a lot of fun to be around. He rarely even tips the dancers on stage. We go to clubs that don't offer LDs. I have another buddy who loves the avocation as much as me, go to all my regular places together.
