Re: Running into someone you know
We bumped into a couple we knew at an on-premise swing club one day, and they have become our best swing friends - and you, we've played together numerous times.
I was standing at the bar of the club, ordering a drink, when I heard a familiar voice off to my left, by the main entrance. I looked over and saw a lady I had worked with for two years and her husband. After we all got over the initial, "Oh my God - you two swing?" moment, we sat at the table together and talked things over. We had no concerns about them being discrete - I had know her for 2 years, after all, and had no Idea they were swingers. We all hit it off right away (I knew I would get along with her, and had secretly lusted after her for as long as I had known her,) and we have been great lifestyle friends ever since. Heh - by shear coincidence, I now work with her again, although she is in a completely different office. We see each other for about 10-15 minutes every day, and our 'extra-curricular activities' are never discussed there.
If you do happen to bump into someone you know, don't run the other way screaming. If you like them in vanilla life, walk up to them and greet them warmly. You never know - they might just turn into great lifestyle friends. They'll probably have a lot more experience in the lifestyle than you have, so they would be the perfect couple to ask questions of.
Overall, I'd say don't worry about it. If it happens, it happens - turn it to your advantage by becoming better friends with them.
