altho some have and have had no problems. If you don't tell, you're pretty much assured you won't other than what might happen by accident, and that's always possible.

I have had occasion to think a few people might know just by the sudden change in their behavior towards me and the change in the topics of conversation made me wonder.

I try to remember that if I tell, it's not just me that is exposed, but the system, and those in it.

Nope, discretion is key. I plan to keep it that way.

That means my family and good my friends (though not my acquaintances).  Shockingly, I haven't lost one friend/family member or compromised any relationships by telling them.  They may not all be happy with my decision to work as an escort, but they accept that it is simply something I choose to do, and that it doesn't define who I am.  Their opinion of me hasn't changed, and I know my father respects my honesty to him (though the day I leave the hobby with probably be the happiest of his life .  I am just grateful to have such a wonderful support system, and not have to worry about leading a double life.  I don't ever discuss private details, or even mention a clients name.  Discretion is always key, but at least I don't have to live in fear of them finding out.

By necessity, my bank and Revenue Canada.  Other than that, people just know about the other business I run.  I don't have to lie, I just don't divulge information to people who don't need to know it.

except co-workers at my day job...everyone else knows..family, friends...etc.

no one in my life knows....which is why I often go into the chat room.....three of us (the other two shall remain nameless at this time) got together for lunch. It was fun to have someone to talk to about the "hobby".  I suggest you try and find someone who can let you talk about it and maybe even help you or just compare notes....
We are going to try to get together once a month... I highly reccomend it...
