Dancer claims I offended her.

Last week I was in the Coliseum in Detroit and a dancer who usually camps right next to me and hustles me for drinks and meals refused to even say hello. I spoke to her, cordially, and asked her how she was doing. She replied that she would no longer speak to me because of what I said to her the last time I got dances from her. I may have been a few stiff drinks down (Makers Mark and ginger ale)and I don't recall exactly what I said. I do recall being annoyed that everytime I come in the club she comes on to me with the "wanna dance" greeting and bitches me out if I hesitate or say no. I vaguely recall telling her I don't like being treated like her personal ATM machine.
So now this dancer won't speak to me and is acting like a dumped or disrespected girlfriend. In the meantime other dancers have become more friendly and open.
Is it possible I have caused permanent damage to the ability to communicate? Will this damage, if it exists, cause difficulties with other dancers as the word gets around that I was rude? Or is it more likely that because I set her straight, I am now getting extra attention from others who see that this generous customer is available for all?
Advice, insights, criticisms or farts?

I've had this scenario happen with one of the dancers at my #3 regular club. Supposedly, she said that I don't respect her dancing. I don't know that I ever said that, but this is one of those girls who can get in the bad habit of going to the dressing room the moment she's done on stage, which is something that she needs to reconsider.
