Sounds like most of the hesitation is centred around having to use their real phone numbers. I certainly can attest to the potential pitfalls of doing so. I have received unsolicited messages sometimes weeks or even months after seeing someone, which is just terribly unprofessional. I certainly understand SP's hesitation to respond to numbers from phone apps, as I'm sure there is more negative than positive coming out of it. That is why places like this are so important. It allows us to weed out the bad ones and have comfort in knowing you are reaching out to a professional. Sounds like Brittney is reputable, so we might have to give her that trust if we want the opportunity to see her.
