similar story, in linda bar one night, i was getting badgered.
an lb that knew me told her to leave me alone. "he will choose when he is ready".
really, you are weighed up in a matter of seconds upon entering anywhere.
i think the mamasans let them know if you are new, or if you know the crack. i have heard sally at sally bar shout "doi tong".or "loi tong" about a customer which means you like ladyboy.
in la bamba a couple of years ago, an lb was sitting with me, who i ended up seeing regular now for 2 years for weeks at a time.
she told me that when she first sat with me, alis had said "dont bother with these guys, they are no good".
ive never forgotten that comment from someone who didnt know me.
so sometimes, the sitting outside and ignoring routine is not down to the lb,s , they have been fed information.
shame it is usually wrong.
