Last Saturday night I went to a strip club. After staying around for an hour I decided I was ready to leave. The stripper I was most interested in was at the bar appearing to talk to a female friend hanging out in the club. Instead of waiting for the conversation to end, I walked up and asked her if she would do lap dances with me before I left. After we got back to the lap dance area, she told me I was the first customer who had ever approached her while she was talking to someone. I told her I never approach strippers while they are talking to another male customer but that appeared to be just casual chatting with a fellow stripper who was off work. It turned out that was exactly the case. What are your preferred situations for approaching a stripper at the club and what situations do you avoid doing that?
If I tip and show appreciation at the stage, that should be enough. I hate to be too forward because it puts me at a disadvantage. Same reason when I was single I didn't want to push myself on anyone who seemed otherwise occupied or uninterested.
