Real life over Hobby life

Think about the worst thing that she can do to you once she connects your hobby persona to your real life. Make your decision based on what you can afford to lose if folks in your real life find out about this hobby of yours.

I think it is better to not say anything about it. What if she wants a 2000 engine repair for free? You should avoid identifying yourself if you are married.
You have to decide what the risks are. I have a paranoia streak, so I might be inclined to abstain. But let's say Lana, or Reese Foster, or Fawn or even Berkleigh came into my office. (Why the hell they would, who knows, but it's my effing fantasy) I would likely send them a PM at a later time to let them know we had met in real life and would they be comfortable with a BCD encounter?

On the other hand, if it was a drama-queen 20 year old BP provider, I would be the steroetypical engineer with my pocket protector and eyeglasses who never noticed how hot they were.

Of course, there is a lot of space between those two bookends.
No one ever comes to my office.
I was not so interested in doing any trading. I have recently spoke with her via P411 and was gonna see her soon already.

As for the Ladies you named, She is of that caliber, they most likely know each other. If it was a 20 something I would just forget all about it. I have had a few providers come in the shop before that I had no interest in because of reputation or too young before. I agree it is best to keep your worlds apart.
This may be a slight hijack, but to turn the question around a bit:

Ladies, if a hobbyist meets you in real life, knows your real life information,

1. Would you want to know he knows and who he is? Obviously, you learn his personal information.

2. Do you expect him to let you know?

3. If this occurred, and I decided to let you know, in most cases I am not going to do it in person right when we meet. I would not want to shock or surprise you and possibly cause you any embarrassment. I assume that is how you would prefer it?
I also wondered the same thing. Good question!

hmm, now Berk, if I had seen you, I would remember, I am sure.

That said, I am sure that anyone of the ladies suggested could present a professional appearance when they showed up at my office. However, my officemates & receptionist would sure notice, and I don't see how we could be quiet enough to not get caught. And then they would be hard pressed to have the same professional appearance when we opened the door.

Finally, that grin on my face that couldn't be wiped off would convict me.

I guess the main point of my post is that I never get hot gals who come to my office. Had nothing to do with "doing them" in my office. My office is too blah for any fun.

IMO, I think she might be uncomfortable if you PM her now, she might send someone else to pick up (whatever it is that you do) her purchase! I would wait until after the pickup on Friday and PM her then.
