Yes I was in love with providers before. 1 was a stripper I met at a party. I didn't know she was a stripper until I went to a bachelor party for her brother. We walked into a place in Times Square and there she was on stage. Her brothers & cousins went crazy. We got thrown out of the club. We stayed together for about another year after that. She was making a lot of money, like 1k on a Friday night. I would go into the club and she handed me the money to keep safe.
When I was 19 and stationed in Panama I ended up living with a bar girl. It wasn't uncommon for GI's to marry bar girls. I've seen it in Panama, Korea, Philippines and Germany. I was living with this girl we were both 19 or 20 years old. If I remember correctly she wasn't even from Panama but originally from El Salvador. I had a temporary duty assignment then went in leave for a month in Hawaii. I got a Dear John letter when I got back. I never saw her again. If she didn't disappear I probably would've married her.
