Hey guys and gals,
I experience this more often than is comfortable.
It could just be my imagination.....but I wondered if other gals felt this way from time to time.
I could almost bet....that it has.
There was also a neighbor who was giving me "the look".....but I'm positive would never go public with the knowledge....because he would be busted as well.

I recently put an ad out to share my incall in the Business Services Forum. And....even though this may be far fetched....I'm curious of the exposure, now with another provider and her clients coming and going.....that the odds are greater I could run into "the neighbor"...or "soccer coach".

I dunno.....it could also just be a crazy fantasy of mine....lol.

Anyways....do you gals get this? Or....have you guys ever been out in public....see a chick...that you think....oh, I know who that is....I've seen her site.

Curious.

I've run across a couple of providers, but only one close encounter. I've mostly seen them across a mall throughway or something far off like that. But I did run into one provider at, of all things, an accounting office. I was surprised more than anything. But she was cool. Still, both hobbyists and providers alike should be prepared with something to say should that happen.

A knowing smile and a quick turn are the best measures. A dancer friend was buying her son shoes, when she and a male customer with his wife in tow came into the store. They both looked at each other trying to remember how...and BOOM both hit at the recognize button at the same time! He led his wife to another part of the store.

Since you don't show your face, he could just be checking you out.

Torre, as a friend of mine used to say, "Hard sayin', not knowin'." I guess the question i'd have, would be when you get those looks, how are you dressed? Conservatively? Or provocatively, maybe showing ample cleavage or leg?

When I head off to the gym, and see a lady sporting a sports bra top, low cut, one or two sizes too small, you bet I'm taking a close and lecherous look. It's the gym for crying out loud, no need to put it out there. Conversely, if a lady has a similar sports bra on, that fits properly and doesn't over expose the goods, a casual glance is all that's appropriate. The same holds true in public...dress to flaunt and expose it, you're going to get "the look." You can dress to flatter and highlight your assets without looking like a...well...you get the idea.

Just my two cents...

Yes I feel that way sometimes......creeps me out.

Maybe he thought you were hot! :-)

A very well known provider from Eccie had a kid that went to the same elementary school as my kid. I would see her at many school events. It was a provider I had never seen, so she had no idea who I was, however she was very recognizable from her showcase and many ads. I never let on I knew she was a provider, because I certainly did not want to make her feel uncomfortable in those surroundings.

I think maybe there are two different looks in this case

1) guy glancing at a beautiful woman
2) guy glancing at a beautiful woman he thinks he may have seen naked

Other than the second choice being a bit more drawn out, I don't know how I would tell the two apart. Dealing with a possible uncomfortable meeting is probably best laughed off with an "I'm sorry you must have me confused with someone else" smile, and walk away. Shortly there after, as he has watched you stroll out of his life, he's either going to schedule a session or move that encounter to the part of the brain that ponders things that could have been.

I think the overriding procedure here, is NEVER do anything other than nod discreetly or smile if it's someone you've known. Discretion is paramount in the hobby...

Only had one encounter where I met a provider I had seen before BCD. Ran into her at local mall. Both of us were alone and when we recognized each other we did stop for a moment and chat. Then off we went in opposite directions. Of course we did meet BCD later that week since we had not seen each other for about a year.

If either of us had been with someone like SO or friend don't think we would have done the greet and chat but just smile or wink and keep on walking.

It happened to me at dinner with my husbands best friend and his wife. After a few minutes into the dinner his friend asks me "well .....how is your business going?" with a grin and a funny look in his eye.I paused for a second or two and then said "I'm doing ok" Just got the feeling like he had seen pictures or something.
I also do some network marketing.I was hoping that's what he meant.Later when I suggested a girls night out with his wife,he said no way she aint going out with you.I don't know if he was playing or not.

CoHorn · 02-28-2011, 04:06 PM

I've seen a couple around malls, etc... I've also seen one as a patient, but she didn't know me, but I recognized her from her posting and ads. I never let on that I recognized her.

When I was dating a provider a few years back she told me of a horror story once where a guy recognized her and screamed her provider name across a crowded mall, firmly taking his place as a "Major Dumbass". As a photographer I've had to jump through a few hoops in order to accommodate a ladies privacy concerns, including some fairly major tattoo removal. Photoshop is good, but it's not perfect.

TexTushHog · 02-28-2011, 08:04 PM

Torre, I didn't take time to look at your web site, but your profile page only has body shots. If your web site is similar, and you don't recognize the guy, he's probably just a run of the mill lecherous soccer coach who just like to take a few shots on goal.

I'm fairly new to the hobby. But as I was doing my research, I made a decision to only hobby when I travel or with visiting providers to avoid these kinds of situations. Austin's a small city and I'm a visible person. It's just too high of a probability to run into dancers or providers.

airlineguy12 · 03-01-2011, 04:40 PM

The only ones I have seen in public that I was certain I knew as providers were a group of 3 girls who I'd seen advertise on BP I recognized one for sure the first time then went back found the other two. They would always come into the gym with their male friend who would supervise their training and show them how to lift and work the machines. They were all friendly and talkitive, I never let on I knew who they were and they never offered any information either. And like most of the "New Year's Club" they did not stay working out there for long then dissapeared.
