Two girls from the same club try to run some the same hamfisted scam on me.
About 5 months ago I met a girl in my new local club and, about 20 minutes into our conversation, she starts pushing to "hang out" sometime and we exchange numbers. Now I believed, at that time, that this was a normal and customary stringalong gambit and treated it accordingly - meaning I ignored it. However, I enjoyed my time with her enough (she was a hot fucking ticket) that I tipped her barside over the course of an hour and a half - perhaps $120 all-in, though that 90 minutes included two stage sets and a couple of circuits around the room. When I left, she echoed her offer, which again I simply assumed was an effort to put me on the hook for future club visits.
I was wrong. In fact, the few times I texted her over the next four weeks to find out when she was working again, she instead tried to steer me towards dinner or other social meetups. And each time, she tried to lock me in for the very next night. I had no interest in seeing her in an ambiguous social meetup until I knew what she was looking for, so I continued to decline.
Finally, on a night when I was supposed to see her in the club, the following text exchange occurred:
Her: Would you possibly meet up with me and lend me a few bucks to get to work and get some food for my house? I just got my own apartment...I need help and maybe we can meet up later after work and arrange something funn
Me: Sorry honey, but that's really not my type of gig. And I don't know you well enough to be doing those types of favors on spec.
Her: Okay I am just get gas to get to work. (Unlikely)
Her: How about u come in tomorrow night I'll be working from xx to xx (Also unlikely)
Me: Maybe I gave you the wrong impression about me. My "friends' become so through established p4p relationships. And when they need $$$, I offer them earning gigs, not loans.
Me: And if u really wanted to get to work so badly you would have asked for a ride, not cash at some public spot."
Probably needless to say, but I didn't hear back from her after my last texts.
Then, just last week ANOTHER girl, who I hung out with once for about an hour at this club, sends me the following text:
"Hey its XXX how r u? I have a big emergency work was real bad and I cant pay my hotel can u help me please"
I really have to start working on whatever vibe I'm giving off. Are these girls really so stupid as to believe that some guy is just going to drive out to them and hand them money based upon one brief visit in the club? What might I be missing here?


That they are REALLY desperate and grasping at ANY chance of getting any money. If they have seen you spend a lot of money in a club - on them or others - they possibly figure you MIGHT be dumb enough [And rich enough] to just give it to them.
