Can I get a drink? What do you want? Water.
Get the fuck out of here. Go to the bartender and get tab water.

the op could have carped some dime and just said this: how about we go replenish ur bodily fluids with some of my bodily fluids?
your welcome
That makes sense....
The OP's expectations on the other hand...
You wouldn't want that would you?
It is also a sign that she enjoys her job and doesn't need to get drunk to get through her shift.
I remember seeing it somewhere (Twitter? Tumblr?) I don’t remember, about an experiment a woman started doing in bars. This wasn’t a dancer, just a regular woman. When men would start offering a drink, she would instead counter with a food item that was the same price or less than a regular mixed drink. Many dudes would get PISSED. Pushing to drink, most likely for not-too-nice purposes, is something that can’t be ignored.
I have. And perhaps that's because I hit more day shifts than night shifts, but it has happened on occasion during night shifts as well. I'll be honest, I'm fine with it as opposed to the dancer putting away expensive mixed drinks. Partly because it saves me money, and partly because drunk dancers are often problematic. Tipsy or buzzed ... no problem. Drunk dancers are a minefield.
For me, asking me to buy water still doesn't register on the radar of dumb things said by a dancer.
As far as a food item, it's not the price but it's the social meaning of a "drink". If a dancer I liked wanted food because she wanted to take an edge off her prior drinking, I say no problem. Also, if I am ordering food and she wants some then I have no problem either. It just seems like someone is pushing the limits of hospitality to go outside what is offered.
As usual my brother rick hits the nail on his head.
Indeed, my brother rick is right about almost everything. Only thing he gets wrong is the glory that is the Tesla Model S Performance configuration. What he doesn’t get is the full potential of the autopilot. Reprogram that bad boy to have rick mode and you can drive drunk without touching the wheel.
Activate rick mode and you can have a gin rickey in one hand and a gimlet in the other and just watch the hairless apes bounce off your hood when you hit ‘em. It’s a wild ride. ROAR!!!
I guess this makes sense since no woman would have sex with any of the Ricks on here if she is sober.
Says the fat bastard paying girls $200 - I wonder what that must be like for them? 😉
Or it could tell me that they are too uptight to even try to fake it, no doubt trying to look "professional." IME that is almost always a telltale sign of no fun of any kind, even just barside entertainment.
Honestly, I'd assume it's not ideal for them, that's why I pay them instead of them fucking me for free. Isn't that the reason anyone pays strippers or other sex workers for sex?
I am a male. No idea who gave me that flower, not my issue.
I posted this discussion the day it happened. And I was not at the right state of mind. But I do remember the conversation. She sat down, said, hi and immediately asked for a drink, I said of course what would you like, she said water. I said 'can't you get it at the bar' . She said, ' I like it paid for' .... I just met her and it seemed rude and not a great introduction. I was not happy with her and posted this.
I received a lot of great view points from this post. Some I did not expect. But will take into consideration next time a woman asks me for water. It really was just the Hello and quickly asking for an expensive item she could get for free and saying I should pay for that. But generally yes. I was being an ass. I was not rude to her, or demanding. I said no..
I'm not forced to pay for her drink. Just like she's not forced to stay with at the table. All is fair I think. This was just an annoyed post.
She came up and sat with me and we talked. Eventually, she ordered a tap water. This wasn't the first time we sat together just to talk, hence the "friend" moniker. I had asked if she wanted something to drink every time and she always refused. When she asked for tap water this time I just asked her if she drank tap water at home. She said no. I told the bartender to cancel her tap water and let me buy her a bottle of water.
This was a no pressure to get a dance sitdown but we go get dances together that are a lot of fun. She goes out of her way to not be the girl that takes advantage even though I ask her if she wants antything knowing she doesn't drink. So, I guess I have to show appreciation for her going out of her way not to take advantage.
What you found instead was an odd collection of responses from mostly dayshift teetotalers and an assortment of other types who are not the typical night time club hound. You are understandably confused and now trying to re-establish your footing.
I posted my response above and from it you can glean that I am similarly uninterested when a girl leads me to believe that she would like to socialize over a cocktail and then orders a bottled water - though it's more often Redbull now where I club. I'm a night time socializer myself so I understand where you're coming from, even if I don't get as worked up about it as you did. Throwing away a few bucks on failed attempts to enjoy time with a lady is just part of the process.
You set the bar low for using that moniker. I don't apply a term like that to a girl until she has seen me OTC a couple of times. Just sayin.
I’ve offered to buy drinks many, many times. 90% of the time they want an alcoholic drink. The other 10% of the time they might say something like “I’m past my cut off, do you mind if I have a water” or Red Bull, etc., to make sure I am ok with buying her a nonalcoholic drink, because, again, a drink in a bar means an alcoholic drink. Of course, if I make the offer, I will buy whatever they ask for, and appreciate the clarification.
Personally, I don’t care what they drink or whether it’s alcoholic or not, but I would have found the interaction described by the OP very off putting as well.
If a dancer wants water and asks for bottled water, I'll pay for water. The reality is you have no idea what the bartender is putting in the glass anyway for an "alcoholic" drink. The club is getting paid, the dancer is getting something she asked for, and you're getting whatever time a drink buys you. If she asks for tap water, I don't insist on upgrading because in my experience that doesn't do anything but give the club more money.
By my experience, I mean that in years past I'd spend money on little things in club situations (like upgrading a water) that I thought was being nice, but it was really me imposing my ideas on someone else. My main goal when interacting with a dancer I don't know is for her to get the information she needs about spending time with me and for me to do the same. Some dancers will think it's nice, others will think something negative, and for some it won't even register. Why add that to the mix?
I suppose a dancer could be testing a customer to see if they're going to volunteer to pay whatever amount to get her a bottled water over tap. I'll fail that test every time lol. My experiences in the clubs has gotten better over time because I've learned how to be a better customer, not by throwing around a bunch of money I didn't need to spend.
For instance, I was flying through Chicago on the 4th of July and stopped at a spot where I like to get a beer and a Chicago dog. I don't travel through Chicago often, maybe twice a year, but I am always recognized by a few of the bar staff and we catch up. The two I saw, I hadn't seen in 2 years and we were both happy to see each other. Being an airport bar, a domestic draft is about $12. Every time I see these two at this bar we talk and I am given a free beer. I guess I've tipped well in the past but I do that in general.
The girl I bought a water for is a very hot girl and she usually books up for the day when I am in there. However, when we get a chance to go in back, I get things that would be considered "extra" that I don't get charged extra for. For me to make a friendly gesture toward her is a no brainer. She doesn't get jealous or angry if we don't get a chance to go in back and she will sit with me between "clients". It's fun to hang with a super hot chick that conversation comes easily with.
I have "friends" in my regular watering hole at home that I don't hang out with outside of that bar but enjoy hanging with inside the bar and we will buy each other drinks on occasion. For me, I make a decent living and enjoy hanging out with "friends" rather than sitting at home sad or angry at the world. I am pretty quiet but can make casual conversation with just about anyone. It makes for a happier life and I'm fortunate to be a fairly happy guy. What's not to be happy about? I can walk into a strip club pretty much anytime I want and not even think about what I'm spending. Who wouldn't be happy with a life like that.
Then again, I'd probably never ask about her getting water at the bar. If I offer to buy a drink, then I'll buy what she wants. It's her choice.
Tough to argue with that. Maybe this should be a pm, but somehow I just realized mike710 and mikeym are not the same person. I was thinking "this guy makes sense, why do people keep ragging on him"? lol
but loper and CMI - thanks for the laugh !
After she sits down, as soon as I know I like her and want her to stay, I say: "We're doing shots today! Vodka or tequila, you pick!"
IF SHE SAYS either vodka or tequila, I ASK HER what she wants for a back. Then I order for both of us from the waitress.
IF SHE SAYS she isn't drinking alcohol for (reason), I TELL HER we're not a match today and send her on
IF SHE SAYS she wants a mixed drink, or any other alcoholic drink besides shots, I DECIDE WHETHER I'm okay with that. If not, I send her on. If I am okay, I ask her what she wants, and order for both of us when the waitress comes.
IF SHE SAYS I don't drink vodka or tequila you pussy, let's do whiskey then SHE IS MY NEW CF
In short, tell her what you want to get her. Ask her exactly what she wants so you know her order. If you want to drink her and she doesn't drink, send her on. If she wants a $30 dancer drink and you don't want to buy that, send her on. Otherwise, order for you both.
He's got a point. I just had a little of that myself.
No doubt. But for me it's simply a matter or probabilities. There are only so many girls I can meaningfully interact with in a given noght. On the whole I have found dancers who drink with me, or at least pretend to do so, to be much more fun than those who don't. So now I don't bother with those who can't even be bothered to fake it.
I made the mistake of telling a dancer where I was from and apparently it has a worse reputation than I thought for being violent. I said no fights but there was a shooting at Applebees not far from me. She looked like she didn’t believe me when I said I hadn’t been in any fights. I didn’t realize I looked that rough tonight. Just because I used to live in a small town ranked as a very violent place doesn’t mean it was violent for everyone. Except for all the shootings it was somewhat peaceful.
On the issue of water versus alcohol, if I ever start giving a shit what a dancer is drinking when I offer to buy, just shoot me. If I automatically excluded dancers based on what they drink, I'd not have had nearly as much fun over the years. A surprising number of them have been non-drinkers, and in clubs where the under 21 restrictions are strictly enforced, and even for those over 21, some of you might be surprised at exactly how much alcohol is in a dancer's drink, no matter how much you paid for it.
I can't even count the number of dancers who've been happy that they didn't have to pretend they were drinking booze when they "drink" with me.
I think this is a "you have fun your way, I'll have fun my way" statement. I'm the reverse -- I started off in non-alcohol clubs, and over time came to realize I have the most fun drinking with strippers. In fact, it's the reverse: having fun drinking with a gorgeous stripper is part of the reason I love going to the club. Yes, I can have fun with a stripper who isn't drinking, and still occasionally go to all-nude, no-alchohol clubs. So I suss it out quickly ("we're doing shots today"), send her on her way if we're not match -- it's not a big deal, there's plenty of other girls at the club who drink and can show me the time I'm looking for.
I really don't mind buying her an overpriced (dancer drink taxed) water.
That's how I read your comments because I've seen your thoughts on this before. In this particular thread it did come off a little differently, though. Over time I've gotten less particular on which dancers I'll sit and talk with as long as there's something I like about them on first glance, because I get bored with routine.
But I'm a big fan of not wasting time, so get why experienced hounds want to filter. Plus a guy like Subra's in a pricier market than most of us. If I was paying San Fran prices on drinks I'd probably pay more attention.
No shade to those who don't care either way. You have fun your way. I'll take my money and have fun my way with it -- I've done this long enough to have a good idea of what I'm looking for at the SC
Now, sharing a couple of Purple Haze brownies? Different story. 🤣
I’d love to see that request. Bottled water? No! Pour me a glass! I’m not paying for it!
Maybe this tab water is cleaner?
Have you *seen* how they "wash" glasses in a bar? At least including alcohol has some chance of killing leftovers...
Having read the stories you've posted about your strip club hi-jinks, I find it amusing that tap water quality is something you'd worry about even a little bit.
If I want to savor a warm yellow shower, I’ll pay extra for that experience…
