How much will this cost me?

Over the last 20 years, I've only been to clubs about 10 times, so I am a relative rookie despite my age. I visited Secrets for the first time on this hot summer tuesday afternoon around 4 pm. Entering the club I felt comfortable, there was noone taking any cover charge. Went in to sit down at the bar and ordered a wine. Prices were reasonable. The Bartender was very busy, but on a subsequent visit, I found her to be genuinely friendly and just on guard against a lot of the dancers "tricks". Before long an attractive girl sat sent to me and we struck up a very nice conversation. As I was not familiar with the place, she gave me the info. Dances are available on the main floor, but she advised the VIP lounge was better for dances. $20 was reasonable to visit the lounge upstairs. To visit upstairs they put a wristband on you.

Upstairs was clean and comfortable (except for an air conditioner pipe which was dripping water). The dancer was very chatty, but excitingly so. I like to talk and listen and we did for a long time. Every once in a while a manager would walk up to ensure everyone was safe, and I felt glad about that. There seems to be a LOT of drama between the girls on the floor. The dancer I was with seemed nice, and this first visit ended great. She asked for my cell phone #. I gave it to her. I found out the next 2 days, there were follow up texts asking for money. There was always a hard luck story, followed by, can I have $100 to $200. I went back the second day sort of wondering if I should, but I had such a pleasant visit, i thought why not. The second visit was nice, but I felt taken advantage of by the same dancer from the previous day. Same thing the third day when she texted asking for even more $. I would like to go back to the place, but am unsure how many more calls I will get asking for $. Mind you, all I got the first visit was 1 dance (it was exciting but not complete). The second time, there was no dance, just talk from the dancer about her hard luck and how all her money was stolen from the previous day. Didn't make me feel real good. Be on guard for dancer drama here, but I would still like to go back.
