and this is an outdoor two level mall in Richmond (Short Pump), shopping with my mom.  This guy, who I had NEVER met, starts yelling "CAROLINE! CAROLINE!' over and over from the top level while I was on the bottom level.

I was HORRIFIED.

He later sent me and instant message and asked me why I did not talk to him.  Um, yeah.

Dont bother saying anything, just focus on reality. She is doing a job and acted like she was your GF. Just enjoy the hour and leave, there is no emotional connection on her part.

I just saw a recently retired provider from Prime sitting at a table eating lunch where I was having lunch.  I recognized her immediately and made some eye contact but I don't think she recognized me (we only had a couple of encounters anyways).  I didn't say Hi because this hobby is supposed to be discreet.  It was a surreal feeling because in the hour we spend together, it was very intimate, we were like long time BF and GF but once that clock hits the hour mark and we go back to the real world, we are nothing but strangers.

A question for you all, do you ever see and recognize providers outside in the real world and would you say Hi if you were a frequent visitor.

I've had a jackass come sit at a table with myself and a few friends, and its very awkward to explain how I know some guy who is 25+ years older who calls me by another name

Look at the other side of this would you want me to stop and say hi while you are out with wife/friends/co-workers? Then you are forced to explain how you know "that woman"

Yeah, I totally agree with you Aria, if she was with anybody or if I was with someone, I wouldn't even think about acknowledging her.  I just pose the question because she was by herself and I was also at lunch by myself and our tables were pretty close to each other.

I just love what you said Kurt "Just want to protect whatever interests she has outside of the private time that we have shared."
Well said
*kisses*

once or twice i've run across a regular in a restaurant setting. i decided the best thing to do was to leave.

Depends on the situation, of course.... Depends on how out in the open the girl (me) and the special friend (you) are, in our respective lives and interests...

Wouldn't it be nice if we lived in a world and a culture where this was not really an issue ? but... is most often not the case, unfortunately...

If any man, or couple, i have spent time and company with, is bold (or crazy) enough, to approach me in public (has happened before), i would not ever wish to be rude to them, if they are willing to take that risk - but, conversely - if i was with family, or corporate friends, obviously that could be very complicated and difficult at the time... and having to think that quickly on the feet could be very uncomfortable for all parties concerned... Take a moment to really think about it before you act is a good thing.

I would only recommend taking this track with someone that has been long known in real comfort, and that may have even crossed the lines between professional and friendship, which does happen from time to time, for some of us i am sure.

Tough balance to walk sometimes. I mostly agree with the side of extreme caution, and you just do not go there with someone, unless you are dead certain (or pretty close to it), that it will not potentially compromise either of us in a negative public manner.

If we have already had this discussion during our private times, and worked out any potential "what if" scenarios, then that can also be good - and i have done this with some people i know are local to me and easily possible this could happen - and so we have openly discussed this situation to put his/their/my minds all at ease, just in the "event of"...

i think those kinds of private conversations are always a good idea when possible, to make sure that were all on the same page about it.  

If your favorite companion(s) has always treated you with respect, discretion, and real kindness in private, you should always be willing to return the same no matter what the circumstance. Just a little common sense is all.

Well in private, I never say "Hello" the same way twice.

It only happened once to me and I stayed on the other side of the room.

I was at the now gone Baja Beach Club in Baltimore. One of the limited time TGND girls (because she didn't live up the the standards) was there with her friends. I promptly went on the other side of the club and made sure I was never near her. She probably would not have remembered me anyways because I only saw her once.

I might make eye contact to see if she recognized me but thats it. If she didn't approach me I would never approach her just like I wouldn't want her to approach me if I wasn't alone.  Be respectful of each other.

Just kidding! If you see me out in the real world please be respectful. Who knows who i'm with. Someone could be just around the corner or stepped away for a moment and I would hate them asking " who was that?". Even if it's s regular. I HAVE seen clients out in public and we would just smile and nod to each other... Descreetly.

If you recognize me in public - and you call me out by my "work" name, then I am probably not going to acknowledge you.  Especially if I am with my family.  

If I'm by myself, and we have met before, then yes.  Smile, nod, wave, whatever, and wait for an invitation to start a conversation.  Be discreet. Stpauljames if you made eye contact and she didn't indicate that she remembered you then you did right by not approaching her, even if she was alone.  

That being said:  I am not your typical provider - partly because I'm new - and partly because I'm just a put it out there kind of person.  Those who love and care about me know what I do in my spare time, and nothing I do seems to surprise anyone!  

So hey, if you see me dancing on the bar at Power Plant (which I have been known to do), by all means!  Join me!!

Wow - awesome responses...  You all totally rock.

I was hoping that had i shared a good thing from personal experience in my posting/response, and it's always good to know that others have also had similar positive experiences.

Always assume an escort's professional life is a secret to anyone she's with, so avoid any obvious acknowledgment if you encounter her in public with anyone or in a situation where she may be with someone nearby who may be out of immediate sight.  

However, in the situation you describe, it is possible to make a polite approach just as you might do with a civvie woman stranger who is sitting alone.  You could offer to buy her a drink if you are sitting at the next table or close enough not to have to raise your voice, If she declines, let it drop and say nothing further.  If she accepts, you may ask if she minds you joining her or if she would prefer to be alone.  If she's too far away to hear your quiet voice you may send a drink through your waiter with the same question, "Would the lady like company or would she prefer to be alone?"  She'll nod yes or shake her head no.  Accept a denial with grace and do not push the issue.  If she accepts your joining her do not bring up your prior encounters.  If she wants to discuss it or find out if you are a past customer, she'll find a way of asking.  Otherwise you're just two people enjoying each other's company, and if single, maybe open to doing so again.
