This question is for both (ladies & gents) how would you handle this.

If I were a stamp collector and met my attractive female neighbor at the stamp collecting show, I would smile at her  and even exchange stamp collecting tips.  
If I booked a  date with a lady and showed up and it was one of the gorgeous medical specialist that I know and maybe even work with (say a certain female general surgeon to whom  I often send patients) I would smile and, unless she was uncomfortable, enjoy my time with her.  I might work a little harder to be charming  since I would know I will be seeing her again and again in our professional relationship.  She's there I'm there and I am not ashamed of what I do and knowing her she would not do anything she felt was shameful.  
(I do protect myself from revealing any of this to famly, friends and colleagues who would divorce me, look down on me, refuse to follow my leadership.  No shame just a practical realization of the need to protect myself and my very minority position on sex for pleasure.)

there's this woman you know IRL and my money is on you want to fuck her so bad you can taste it. She appears behind the door obviously with the same body that you've been lusting over since the first time you saw her. We'll say that's normal for most guys here

I once booked a session with a provider who looked like my neighbor. (OK, my neighbor with a blurry face.) I fantasized about the slight chance that my neighbor might be driving 30 miles for rendezvous like this and it was very exciting. She wasn't, and the provider was hotter than Mrs. Milf with the large husband, so all's well that ends well.

Cat's out of the bag now and they are as involved as I am, so why not chill and enjoy? Unless they are a familiar face from the probation office :-0 heheh

Don't know really what I'd do. It could be heavy, or a good laugh.

This was an after the fact realization. I changed my workout patterns and went to a different location, still close to my home, to exercise. Didn't want to feel like I was intruding on her private life.  Still see her, although I am overdue for a visit.

If I ended up in the same room with somebody I knew IRL...  I'd take the opportunity to tell them how to act if we meet on the street...  Some might want no aknowledgement & others just a nod as you woud to an amiable stranger.  This is the recommended way to handle these chance encounters but not everyone gets it.

If they are there too I guess it's not so bad lol.

I'd be happy to meet someone I knew.  It'd create a bond of kindred spirit.

Years ago, I was at an M&G in NYC, and one of the other hobbyists in attendance was someone I knew from work.  In fact, a lady we both knew introduced us, which was kind of awkward, to say the least.  We both agreed at work the next day to keep our secrets secret.  We also ran into each other at two subsequent events, and I became friends with his ATF.  Strange but true.

and when I turned around, he was gone ... for the evening. Pooof

...actually met up with local provider-familiar tat on shoulder-turns out she was recently divorced from a client of mine...a shock at first-on both ends...but it turned into a really hot visit,that became an overnight stay-I am now a regular client of hers and discovered that my client is/was an asshole and im moving his account to someone else in my company...

If I accidentally booked with someone whom I knew in my civie life, that would make it hotter for me. If she's someone I find attractive, sure. I wouldn't do anything to jeopardize our civie or hobby relationships.
