So...what does One do when they find out a friend/acquaintance is actually an "escort". :embarassed:

would you mention it, leave it, run and hide etc...

NOTE: I was not the one who stumbled upon this information, my sister did thanks to pop-up ads, and first thing she did when I arrived was unfortunately show me

    Never had to face this dilemna. I would say, don't believe every pop-up you see on the Internet. All those sites you may have posted a picture on? Well, they can be used for nefarious purposes sometimes.

    you have to be wary of pop up ads... sometimes they pull photos from recently viewed ones and put that photo in its place to make you click on it becos its someone you know... they get money for every click

    also, i find it too much of a coincidence that it would pop up randomly

    Start keeping notes for a book.

    Bring it up if it topic arises in casual conversation.

    BamsieEkhaya: "So, it's going to be cool this weekend."
    Escort Friend: "Yeah, I hear a cold front is coming in. Time to break out the coats."
    BamsieEkhaya: "Where did you get those coats? Your pimp?"

    If they're your friend, why does it matter?

    Depends on how close you are to said friend. My best friend/other close friend I would straight up ask. If it was someone I didn't really know or we just were not close I would just leave it alone and not say anything.

    Why do anything about it? If you are more 'acquaintances' than close friends, it is likely you aren't sharing all your personal life information with each other.
    If you have a problem with escorts in general - then it is up to you to be up front with that person and explain your side of things, but overall, remember it is you who has the issue with it.
    If you are concerned for their safety - then yes, say something to them.

    Really though, what is the big deal if this person IS an escort?

    I had a friend who was an escort for a while. Didn't affect our friendship at all. She's one of my absolute besties & is now all grown up and married and about to have her first baby. :)

    I would say it would deserve a "mind your own business"

    Well you will ask the friend/acquaintance what's the discount rate for family and friends :P hehe I kid.

    Jokes aside, if I were you, I wouldn't treat him/her any different. S/he is still your friend and unless he/she ran over your dog, drugged your partner, had sex with him and then left him with HIV, and stole your car in the process, then, I won't put too much effort into thinking about this.

    No one should be labelled because of what they do for a living. A job is a job. Everyone deserves respect, regardless.

    I usually just straight up ask my friends about stuff like that. I figure if they found something strange about me somewhere, I'd rather have them come to me so I can talk to them about it rather than form their own preconceived ideas.

    Just tell your friend exactly what you told us-"so my sister stumbled across this popup ad for an escort service and they were using your picture..."

    you dont need to do anything about it, its not really your concern and if you care about this girl and are truly concerned then just let her know that , period... tell her you consider her a dear friend who you wish the best for and want to always be safe and happy, if you feel the need add she could always come to you with anything, sweet, simple, end of subject she doesnt need to know why your saying something kind to her.

    There were a lot of cases of agencies using images without permission, I would probably bring it up in a "they are not guilty" fashion warning them that some stupid website has been using their likeness to advertise their escort agency. This way, if they are being portrayed badly, they can take it up with a lawyer or something, and if they are actually an escort, it'll be their choice whether they want to bring it up because you made it easy for them to deny it.

    If its a good friend that you enjoy being around when you're around them, then it doesn't matter what they do for a living as long as they keep you out of it. The choice on whether you feel comfortable with that is always up to you (well, your sister), but you shouldn't believe pretty much anything you see on those popups.
