hello, i am new to this, and i tried to search but couldn't find any correct info regarding this.

I was trying to schedule with a provider thru email, she asked me about provider's reference..

what does that mean?

please help, thank you!

that you give her the name a provider you have seen in the past, a provider that will remember you and can vouch for you.  That way, the girl you are trying to schedule with will call or e-mail your provider reference, and ask if you are "O.K."  (O.K. generally meaning that you are not LE, not a serial killer, took a shower before hand, didn't have stinky breath, etc.)

You can use a date referral service such as p411, date check or rs2000. This is a much discussed topic, you can use the search feature to find previous discussions on this, so you don't have to wait for an answer from the board.
