What you are actually booking

It is the easiest answer to "who are you bringing?". A verified friend joins you for the occasion you choose, behaves like a friend, and respects every boundary you set.

Companionship only. Not dating, not an escort service. Nothing physical is expected or allowed, meetings happen in public, and anyone who asks for more is banned.

🎉Plus-one for the shaadi season

🏥Hospital visits
