Gimme Girls

Long time subscriber first time poster. In such a simple service based industry it’s amazing how many girls are just like “Gimme” for absolutely nothing in return. During my travels I met a chill girl who when I’m in town we spend a few cool Otc hours together. She’s easy to talk to GFE just great I’ve seen her twice last time was 4+ months ago. I hit her up earlier this month to tell her I would be in town the end of the month to see if she’s still down which she is.
But outside of our time together nothing we don’t communicate. Today I get the desperate “Gimme” call for a couple of hundred with some lame excuse and I’ll pay you back please send now PayPal. At first I had my Cape on and said ok give me a little bit to send. After she kept blowing me up I set the cape down picked up the phone and said no we’re just not on that level I enjoy seeing you and all but no. I’ll send you $50 because I think you are a good person don’t worry about paying me back and that was that.
What would you have done? I did at least get a thank you text and I do want to tap that next time I’m in town.

Many of these girls have kinda upside-down lives and it's often the reason they are strippers.
Money problems are common and often times the custy may be the only "normal" person in their lives they can count on - so yeah; they often have money-issues and often times being a white-knight will set a precedent -b/c they will have more emergencies in the future then likely they will keep coming back to you if you've helped them before - and the more one helps them the worse it can get - i.e. they may start making up emergencies whenever they want/need $$$ (they want a new handbag, take their BF to a nice-dinner; doesn't feel like going into the club; etc).
The chances of her paying you back are often zero - some "promise" to pay you back via free-sessions but even then they often don't follow thru - there are no "loans" in stripperville; any money you give them is to be considered a gift.
And 99% of the time if you don't give them $$$, they will still see you when you want b/c they will still want your $$$ then (i.e. it's not as if you're burning a bridge by not giving them $$$).
Nothing is universal and one may feel-bad about what she may be going thru, but giving $$$ to strippers upfront does not have a good track-record and can often set a precedent.
“Awe babe. I’m so sorry to hear that. I really can’t help you.” And ignore subsequent texts. Also, there’s no reason to ever answer her phone calls. Dancers do this to each other too, when they get desperate.
Many strippers view us as ATM’s. They need money - regardless of why - and they shoot off a quick text to a few pl’s - in the expectation that one will be dumb enough (or charitable enough) to send money.
Since I always want to believe a person won’t completely lie to me - I hope that there is a minimum of truth to a strippers story. In reality it’s probably a complete lie.
I’d recommend you not send any money. Even sending her a tiny amount will tell her that you are soft - and there’s a chance to get more. The next request might be more urgent - and the story might be more dire. But, it’s still a complete lie.
So ignore her requests, or politely decline (with a smiley face emoji). Tell her that you feel for her. Offer bullshit emotional support (for a fictitious situation). Ask her about the sudden death of her cat - the next time you see her at the club - and wait when she can’t remember her own lies. It’s a fun game...
If you give money for nothing in return now, you should expect nothing in return in the future. Again, there can be rare exceptions but you are best off realizing that your stripper buddy views you as an ATM. If you reward that view, she will be asking for more with a new story soon. Further, you aren’t really doing her any favors over time even if she does have a legitimate need for money because she would be better off long term learning to budget and handle her own finances better.
I met a really cool dancer two Monday’s ago and had a great time with her. I don’t remember what we were talking about/how it came up....but she mentioned she has bad credit. I don’t judge people....but I was very surprised when she said that because this girl was probably no older than 25 years old
$100 here $200 there you are getting off easy!
To answer your question I have fortunately never had to put more out over much more than $100. I consider myself lucky.
Nothing wrong with it, in fact I wish SJG only lurked.
I think most of us lurked for a little while, learning the protocols before contrbuting. Maybe not 3 years, but a few weeks or months anyway.
But most of us do appreciate when you provide insights, then we can patronize you to no end.
I think you just trained her to keep hitting you up, and in these types of girls, generosity is met by resentful entitlement, not gratitude. I'd say the odds are, she'll keep hitting you up for free money, since that what you taught her to do, and you'll either keep having to send it (while giving her a stern lecture about how your relationship isn't there yet) or fire her completely. If you wanted to best odds of continuing to tap her, you should have ignored her texts, or perhaps a short polite text explaining why.
Not that I don't make exceptions to this. I had an ATF who a few times I put money in her bnk account a few days before we met for OTC. On the other hand, she was also fine when I came low on cash; she trusted me to put it in her bank account when I got home (I've never done western union; had her send me a text image of a voided check, and used that info to deposit directly to her bank)
I thought it showed class. Good on you!!
Somehow that should be incorporated into a tagline.
Where getting fleeced by strippers after paying them for sex is considered classy.

Take this more as a brotherly what-the-hell-are-you-doing rather than criticism, Nate. But given the things I'm sure you know about strippers (that this wasn't a special request to you, but that she texted all her regulars and everyone she thinks is weak; that strippers often look at generosity as weakness; etc), it really is worth examining why you'd send her any money at all ... what negative thing did you think was going to happen if you didn't?
You put it a bit coarsely but I think you have the right idea -- if you are inclined to give her money, keep it in the context of your relationship, which is strictly a business one. That said, remember that she's a person, no matter what eye-rolling bullshit she's gotten herself into, it might be very real and panic-inducing in her. It might be tempting to try to turn this into a win-win, but it definitely is worth thinking twice about whether you want to be involved in her drama or enabler of her negative mental state in any way. IMO.
max_starr-->"The last time I was asked for money....Please western union to me..."ok.....I'll send you money"....I waited 30 min and texted her back, "apparently I'm banned from WU from sending money to strangers, sorry babe"..."
I realize passive-aggressive and conniving type approaches are very tempting -- I used them myself for years, it just feels like an easier way to avoid conflict and not get her pissed at you, especially if you're intimidated or worried she'll pull the benefits. But as a general rule for the sex industry, my overall experience and how I felt about my own behavior both improved by order of magnitudes, when I started being more direct and assertive. And it also avoid followups like, "will you paypal it to me?" "Here's my checking account #, will you just go to the bank and put it in there?".
Sorry, I don’t have a dog in this race. I’m just an outsider making comments.
Of course! ANd she knew your initial response was bullshit from the beginning .... so now you had to be direct anyway, after having been caught in a lie... good lesson :) :)
Honestly, even after everything I said about not being passive aggressive, I do typically wait HOURS to respond
These days If a dancer tells me she is hungry or needs basic necessities I'll buy her a meal or take her to the grocery store. If she is thirsty I'll buy her a drink.
If she requests cash I quickly reply with a simple "sorry Hun. Can't help you in that way but happy to connect OTC and trade play for pay". Most times they will agree to meet for a play date
LightningKay - lol! Chivalry - that’s funny!
@Natinate next time when she ask for money. Send her $25 more than what she asks, then act like u dont give a fuck about her or the money you gave her...
Thank me later.
Sounds like dealing with the homeless when they ask for "help"
