Earlier this year, I caught a glimpse of a cute secretary in a law office but she left (quit) before I went there again.  I got her number but we didn't click after one phone call.  We never met in person so she doesn't know how I look like and probably didn't see me the one time I saw her.

Yesterday, I found the scrap of paper that I wrote her number on.  One digit was unclear so I googled it.  It seems that she kept her cell phone but now uses it for escorting.  That's another lesson, to use a separate cell phone for the escorting business, but not the focus of this post.

Should I see her as a client (and would probably not mention anything before)?  There would be a good chance that she would see me.  Yipee!

Or should I call her again as a civilian and try to develop a real relationship?  I think the chance of this happening is small since her flighty type personality is not to my liking and she was not too interested during the first call.  If I call her and fail, she may freak out if I call her again for escorting.

She her as an escort client and ignore the past that she doesn't recall anyway. What do you have to gain by stating that you didn't click?

I'd just stay away from her to avoid controversy. I am curious, though, how did you get the civvy number? Perhaps they meant to purposefully give you the provider number?

If they purposely gave the provider number then they knew she was providing.  I think, but don't remember exactly, that when I called 6 months ago, the voice mail was on and she gave her real first name.  Now her escort name is different but her ads show a blurred picture (same person, it seems) and she's still using the same number.  I haven't called that number because I haven't devised a plan (to try to see her as a civie or as an escort).

So the choices are 1. Stay away per rpdya99, 2. See her as an escort, or 3. attempt contact as a civilian.  Choice 4 which is to try #3 first then #2 has been ruled out.

The last four ladies I have seen (check my reviews) have become very fun friends outside in the civi world. I just flew chase to see me ( she's now independent and I pushed my card on her while she was with the agency even though she refused it- I left it with the front desk for  her,  because she rocks as a person) and yeah- she called me after she left the agency. I brought her to a lakers game, we hung out fir two days and had a blast.
Now, you have to see these girls an get a feel for them. A few agency girls I'd never trust in my home let alone see them again, but a few far inbetween (take chase for example) were so damn cool , I got the good vibe from her immediately.

You can do it. These women are people too. Just treat them with respect and kindness and make sure she feels like it's a real date as opposed to a 'pay and play' deal and you'll be fine. Maybe it does not hurt that I show them my pet photos on my iPhone. Breaks the ice and can melt the most frozen attitude.
Good luck and tell us how it goes.
