answer:Whether the fellow and the dancer meet outside her work or during the course of her work makes a difference. That is, I would certainly date another dancer if I met her on the outside, but not again would I date a dancer I met while she was at work. When the woman’s at work, she’ll say any damn thing to keep the guy on the hook, like yes to an invitation for coffee. (That is, I dated a dancer whose endeavors as a painter weren’t as professional as she let me think while she was collecting $20 bills from me, and we didn’t have much to talk about.) I’d be most surprised if your 18ish boyfriend could hold up his end of your relationship if you opted to work in that segment of the entertainment industry.
