Years ago, a friend and, I were at a restaurant waiting for a table. Directly across from us was one of my favorite clients and, his wife. We just causally smiled and, went back to chatting. Another time, I ran into a client at our daughter's art show. Turns out they went to the same school. The looks on our faces gave us away as far as knowing each other. We just shook hands and, asked how each other were doing and, said nice to see you. We played it off fine.

To flip that around a little, when I had my first studio in Ohio, twice I ran into men that I had worked with in the vanilla world. One was a client (Turned out to be a long term client) and, the other came to one of my parties.) That was a hoot. The most awkward was when a former next door neighbor of my parents showed up for a session. I used to baby sit his kids. (This was back in the day of local classified advertising, with no photos.) A fellow dom took the appointment for me and, I made sure I was out of sight.
