Manufactured love
It’s not just restaurants that have sad stories of guys getting stood up during Valentine’s Day. Strip clubs are no stranger to their patrons falling head-over-heels in love with their performers. In this story, the OP, who worked as a bouncer for a particular strip club, saw countless guys bring in flowers for their favorite performers.
