Relationships And Strip Clubs

I will be the first to admit that I used to be a regular strip club patron. Strip clubs and relationships do not mix well together. Not too many men like the character Al Bundy on Married With Children can get away with it in real life. I realize that. I am more than willing to give up strip clubs for the right woman. If I have the right woman, I will not need a strip club. That was pointed out to me not long ago. Strip clubs are not the meaning of my life. I am a reasonably intelligent man, I have a good sense of humor, and I have decided to be totally honest with whoever I become involved with about my former days spent in strip clubs. Some women I have told I have never seen or heard from again, some felt it their womanly duty to give me complete hell before they hit the road running, and one other one has stuck around to find out what I am all about. I watched the movie The Blind Side the other night and they used the analogy of the character Sandra Bullock played of being "like an onion." There are several layers of me you have to peel back (although some women have wanted to peel my skull back like an onion) before you get to the essence that is me. Strip clubs are a part of my past and I do not want any surprises or skeletons falling out of my closet. I would like to think I am worth a little bit of extra effort.
