Besides being awfully quiet and shy, he is friendly and fun to play with. I did an overnight with him recently, which ended up pretty good.  He is very handsome and has a swimmer body. Planning on doing another session with him soon(his ads is inactive at the moment but we keep in touch).

I’m about 45 mins from Center City but meet visiting providers there often. I typically use 1 of 3 parking garages with all the area hotels within a few blocks. I just put the address I want in Waze and go right to the garage. I hate city driving but no issues as long as I just stick to that plan. 

Met up with him a couple of weeks ago. I think it may be a ymmv. He was accommodating enough. PM if you need details.

I would probably chat with a guy in the biz that can give you an insiders perspective. 
 
If it’s something you think you’ll enjoy and be good at, may be worth trying it out. 
 
if you think you’ll have regret in the future, I would consider alternatives. 
 
Would be interested to see what your profile would say… your sales pitch so to speak… care to share here?

This is the case for me, too. My husband and I have vastly different libidos, and we came to the decision that this was the best way for me to meet certain of my needs and really appreciate the clean boundary.
I still want to like (well enough) and be friendly with providers, especially since not all of a meeting is hot and heave play time; but couldn't see becoming actual friends unless the provide/client phase of the relationship was over.

I would say that is correct. 

Philadelphia is just a short Amtrak ride away from Wilmington. Do you ever go there just for fun? Plenty of choices and way cheaper than in DC and NYC. 

I would say that is correct. 

Sounds like:

Thank you, great idea!

Conversation, that may lead to something more.

Any tips on how to hit on someone? I have never hit on a guy in person, so I need some tips on what to look for, where to go (not talking about a bar), etc? What works for you in a non-bar scene?

Conversation, that may lead to something more.

He sent me some good face pics a few mins ago. 

I've thought of hitting on some guys at the grocery store, but haven't because I don't trust my gaydar.

I open with “hello. I have this feeling that I’d like to get to know you. Are you open to a chat?”  That opens the door 80% of the time for me. 

Awesome thread.  
As far as reading the room and knowing who to approach, that comes with age and experience. I hate to say it but that is no substitute. By my age (I am 46) you still have enough youth and energy and looks to execute and the wisdom and experience to know who to approach and how to do it in a non-threatening way, that I will be honest... my rate is better than 1 in 10. Maybe 1 in 8 or even 1 in 7. But there are so many factors there. My father also had two girlfriends on the side during the time he was married to my mother. That "game" or "charm" is in my genetics. That can even be a factor, who knows? 
For the example about small conversation about the cheese, I approached a guy last night on the beach. He had his motorcycle parked on the street directly in front of him and was sitting on the seawall, alone, looking at the sky, not on the phone, just staring into the night.  It was a warm mid-summer evening and nobody else was around. 
I opened with "nice bike man" 
HIM: "Thanks. I love it" 
ME: "What is it?"
HIM [don't remember his reply, that wasn't what I was after]
ME: "That's awesome. How come you're sitting here alone? Just soaking up the day and night?"
HIM "yea. I just had an argument" [no gender or reference given] "and needed to get out of the house for a while. You?"
ME: "I hear you. I was just hungry and came from the place down the street and I am walking home now. I live right over there" [points] "alone and will be doing the same as you tonight"
... at this point he starts talking about random stuff. It was clear he didn't get my hint or suggestion, and I wanted to get home, so I but my losses. 
Did I strike out? Was this a win or loss?
I don't count it really, because I didn't invest the time to seeing it through to the end of the conversation.  The opening and conversation was there and it flowed. If I had of invested the time to see it through, I would have gotten him to reveal his sexuality at some point and/or proposed an offer he come hang out at my place on the balcony and watch the ocean and night from there and/or that I was gay and had an ex-BF, a current FB, a partner, single, whatever. My point is, I would have changed my responses to mirror his situation in an effort to make him more comfortable in that moment to get what I want out of him. 
His reaction dictates where the "count" above comes from. I hope this all makes sense and ya'll can learn from my random rambling, lol. 
 

Why did my mind go right to Dorothy Zbornack on 'The Golden Girls' ?  😂

In a supermarket one could innocently say, Do you know where the mozzarella is?  and before he answers continue with, I am so tired of take out I thought I would cook but the only thing I know how to cook is veal parmigiana and now Can't find the darn cheese.   Stop and if you get a no or a brief it is in aisle two, then move on to the next guy. Let me ask my wife is a definite no.  However, you may get an answer like, let me show you where it is, or I don't cook either and a conversation is to be had.
Of course your course may differ.  Steak sauce, tortillas, shrimp etc.    
Most important be smiling, be brief and know when to hold em and know when to fold em.  The handsomest dealer does not always have the biggest deck.

That said,
Try complimenting him e.g. you like their shirt or shoes. 
Show interest in whatever they bring up by responding with a question.  Cultivate a friendly dialogue.
 

I come here for the poetry! Couldn’t agree more. He stands out in important ways.

Does that mean I shouldn't remove the paper bag I normally wear over my head when I leave the house?

Also, to avoid spooking the prey, you should remain fully clothed throughout the conversation.
