Social companionship

Company at a lawful social occasion, and nothing else: a dinner, an event, a business evening, a day on a yacht, a journey. The companion attends as a guest, the fee is for her time and company, and no other service is offered or implied. The phrase is used plainly on this site precisely because it draws the line that some sites in this field leave blurred.
