 Re: What if I meet someone I know through work?
This thread IS about "what if" and it is not irrational to wonder if you are going to meet people at a club who you know from work, church, your neighborhood, or your family. Thinking about how you would handle it is important before stepping into swinging.
It is reasonable to look ahead to this scenario and decide if running into co-workers is worth the risk to you.
On our first visit to a club the woman who ran the club was checking us in and recognized MrLM. She loudly called out his full name and said "I was a client of yours when I was a teenager! You helped me..." She was happy to see us; we weren't happy to have her reveal our name and our profession in front of everyone in earshot.
We've had our clients contact us through ad sites, they didn't know who we were because our pictures didn't show enough, but we recognized them because their pictures did. We declined a meet and didn't say why. But they are out there and one day we may run into each other at a club, party, or Meet & Greet.
We thought about all of this possibly happening before we began swinging and decided we could handle it. We have. Thus far, there have been no problems and we're in our sixth year of swinging.
I agree with others, you need to consider your own personal risk to your job if you swing and make your decision based on that.
