Wow! Thanks everyone for your thoughts and support. In certain situations I know I emit the "helper" vibe. I have these really big eyes and I think people immediately assume that I have empathy.

It's true -to an extent - I just wish the assumption wasn't immediately made.

I really do think that this serial helper (that hilarious Lola) thing needs to come out - not in terms of him and his sloppy boundaries, but just about my life in general.

Who knows - he might bring it up. I go on Thursday. I may drop off a letter before hand. He needs to know that I can be a letter writer. Might as well get that out of the way too.

Again, thanks to everyone for your help and kindness. I'm not sure I deserve it, but I really do appreciate it.
