I'm sure this has occurred to other hobbyists, but a few years back (10+ or so), I was at the local Wal-Mart and "ran" into a provider I had just seen 2 nights before. It was a very awkward moment as she was with family. We made brief eye contact, but it was obvious between the two of us that we "knew" each other (in more ways than one

). Please, someone else tell me this has happened to them.
As for the perception thing, I do tend to look at certain women a bit differently. If they look out of place for the setting, I wonder if they are providers. This is especially true if I'm out of town and staying at a hotel. Sometimes I just wonder what her business really is
Finally, about a year ago, I was at a strip club. It was your typical set up where certain girls kept coming by asking to give a lap dance or a trip to the "VIP" room. Well, there was this one "dancer" who seemed a little too aggressive/friendly. I got the distinct impression that she offered more than just a private dance when she got off shift.
