What happens when you see a 👎 provider in public
I see providers out in public sometime, some I have spent time with and some I just know their faces from ads. My usual attitude is just to give em a good look over like any other woman that passes me. But recently I was at a small skating rink with my family and I saw a provider that I had given a bad review. I didn't say anything to her but damn if I she didn't give me the sh!t face a few times. Has anyone else had any experiences similar to share???
Do you think she remembers you from 2011?
My motto for that is..........never say a word. The passing glance is fine, but no words should be said to either party.
Strictly my opinion of course.
I like to introduce 'em to the wife and kids.

That only worked because I showed her such a good time afterwards.
This happens to me OFTEN! Probably because I regularly attend restaurants and social events with single hobbyists and run into the marrieid ones while there. I treat it like a shrink would. If you acknowledge me, I will acknowledge you back. If not, we've never met.

Whats worse if the provider and your wife or SO know each other and acknowledge each other...then you either got a problem or you got a good thing going!
I don't mind talking to someone I've seen before when I'm in public... there is always the standing rule that we don't speak about the hobby in mixed company. However, if one of my peers asks how I know the girl, I just say that I worked with her on a project back in the day... or I say I know them via Facebook.
Most providers I am willing to see are always cool headed in public. Bad business to not be.
That's great that you are comfortable in talking ATM....however there is two sides to the equation. Is the lady also cool with interacting???
I also go with the passing glance...and leave it up to the lady to determine if she wishes any more than that
If it would happen to me ? I would just walk on bye if i'am with my Wife . If I was by myself I would just acknowledge her if she made eye contact and look like she is able to talk . It really depends on the situation on hand .
I smile and say "hi" to a lot of pretty women I don't know,and if it was a provider I would say the same.
Once, while at a park with my brother, my sister-in-law, two of my nieces, and my niece's boyfriend, I happened to look up and see a hobbyist about 10 feet from me, heading in my direction and waving. I gave him a look that would curdle milk and turned my back on him. Fortunately, he got the message. Extremely awkward moment barely avoided.
Last week, I took my niece to the Nelson. A few days ago I got an email from someone asking if it was me he had seen. He mentioned that he was there with his daughter, but here's the kicker, the only reason he didn't come up to me and strike up a conversation was because he wasn't 100% it was me, and he didn't want to look foolish if it turned out he had just approached a stranger who only looked like me. Thank GOD. Never mind that young lady standing next to me and talking to me.
If you see a provider in public, don't wave at her, don't talk to her, don't make googly eyes or wink at her. Just because you are alone doesn't mean she is. Please remember that for most of us, this is a secret life, and we wish it to remain that way.
Later on, send her a note if you want to. The two of you can have a laugh about your naughty little secret. But in public keep it discreet.

I'd have to ask her to turn around, bend over a little and see the back of her head to confirm its her!
