Also speaking from experience, if you're a trusted regular with a ML at this place, protection may become optional in the heat of the moment. At least that was my experience last year.

I reckon there's some reckless stuff going on in the chase for cash at this joint and TTC. As sweet and trustworthy as the ML may seem, and for all the kind words said, promises made, and messages exchanged, at the end of the day they honestly don't give a flying fuck about you nor your health. It's all business.

Think with your brain rather than your old fella gents. If she's grabbing your junk and initiating direct contact with her downstairs without asking you first, she's almost certainly doing exactly the same thing with ALL her regular clients (of which there are many). Be sure to consider the consequences this fleeting moment may have on your personal life and circumstances in the long-term.

I dodged a health bullet thank fuck, and learned some valuable life lessons about trusting ML's along the way. Can't say I miss visiting this sketchy part of town either. I won't be returning. Just my two cents worth.
