Last night someone from BD contacted me: An acquaintance I met around May this year. I had noticed she was from Portland, said hello, and we ended up sharing several PMs getting to know each other. We were both pretty darn busy at the time, so we didn't take that anywhere.
Anywho, she got back in touch, and we caught each other up on our lives. I mentioned considering visiting her place of work (a strip club) to say hello, but didn't know what times or days she worked. Well, turns out she worked tonight, and it was going to be her last night working as a dancer for a long time / ever, so she invited me to visit.
Long story short, I went and had a ton of fun! Made a couple new female friends. Experienced a new culture, and enjoyed myself immensely. The best part is it was surprisingly easy. We hung out at the bar/club for over 5 hours, chilling out, and I wasn't nervous at all. Now, it helps that we met previously online, and were into some similar things, but still! You guys all know how out of character this is for me.
I think I was the target of some envious stares, hanging out with two beautiful dancers all night
. Though I'll be honest: I knew going in that the one from BD was already in a relationship (knowing that helped me relax: I knew she wasn't interested in me 'that way.') When she mentioned she had brought a friend I got a little nervous, but she was the nicest and most easy to talk to woman I've ever met :3! She was in a relationship as well but I wasn't headed out expecting a date anyway. Just loved meeting some new friends.
Hope we can meet again!
