He gave me a fifty dollar tip. He was alone, and he was very nice looking. I haven't seen him since (one week) I am nervous how to act when, if he returns?

Thanks Crystal O
I think he was just a nice guy, going off to sea.

David L. Thank you for you sincere words. I do consider myself a good person, and I am waiting for the right guy. It is difficult working in a place with so much drinking, but I must admit the money is good.
Still, I will not compromise my values.

Dawn B, He only had two beers.
50 bucks is a nice tip...or a hint. I hope he comes back! Thanks.

when i was in the navy , at our E.M. club we had a very good group of waitresses. usually around the holidays i and some of my shipmates would give generous tips of cash and gifts. if this man returns just be as nice as you would be to anyone else. he may be going off to war and he may not know if he will come back. and this is a chance for him to do something nice for someone[you].

Why be nervous? How much was his meal? It could have merited a $50 tip. If it was overly generous, then forget about it unless he comes by pressuring you for something you have no interest in. You have no need to act differently unless he poses a problem. Some people just are more appreciative than others. Try to think on the positive side rather than the negative until you have more info.

I need to see a recruiter to enlist.
Consider this, don't ever let the money make you nervous.
Once when people were puting money into the treasury and Jesus was standing by, and the people were putting in very valuable treastures, and then a poor old widow put in two coins. Then Jesus said this woman has put more into the treasury than all the others. And the apostles were confused or shocked or surprised and said but she only put in two coins. Jesus said this widow has put in all that she has all that she owns, but the others put in of their excess.
Money says nothing about love, that is what this is all about.
A relationship is not about a man investing everything in his woman, a relationship goes two ways. A man needs encouragement from a woman in marriage. So you need to find a man that you can encourage, someone that you can invest in and also he is willing to invest a lot in you, but it is based on love.
There are other considerations but this is a first step.

don't be nervous! he merely gave you a tip. unless you think it was something more! ?? let your conscience be your guide.
maybe he was deploying and felt this was a kind of good karma thing, or just a thing he always wanted to do in case he gets killed. who knows? i've given a 50 dollar tip to a waiter, but everybody knew he was trying out for the Olympic ski team. he didn't make it but he needed the money and i had it. simple. nothing more, nothing less.

do your job to the best of your ability and hope he sees what a great waitress you are and gives you another good tip. don't think he expects any thing until he gives you a reason he just my be a good guy. his mom may have been a struggling waitress when he was a child. He just may have felt you needed the lift. don't expect the worst.

Just act normal, the same way you acted toward him when he came in before. Pardon my naivete, but what is an enlisted men's club? It sounds kind of like the old Playboy CLub (I am not judging!) but I have never heard that term before.

I've never heard of this club before, is it for NCO's as opposed to an officer's club?
Since you haven't seen him in awhile, he could have gone there before he got deployed. He may have thought you were nice and wanted you to remember him when he got back.

he may not return, but if does smiling warmly at him. Don't go chasing him because he gave you a $50 tip once let him come to you.
