“There, they pretend to like each other, but they are just trying to satisfy themselves.”
How is this any different outside those doors? The ’sad bargain’ is the denial of reality in a relationship. At a strip club it’s an honest bargain–everyone is well aware of his or her own selfishness, for pleasure or money, respectively. I think your remorse lay in exposing yourself to such a paradigm shift.
