I haven't heard back, it's noon her time, session in 45. Time to play the "what's the worst that could happen game" as I'm feeling anxious.
The absolute worst scenario is that she gets fed up with how much I expect of her, time and moneywise and she terminates.
Okay, well, that probably won't happen. She's only told me dozens of times she's in it for the long haul and would never terminate me for being too much or anything else once we had established our relationship.
The absolute best scenario would be that she apologizes for being inconsistent, says this was just a misunderstanding from a convo last week, and she meant her offer and wants to honor it, that she's totally comfortable with it.
The middle of the road scenario (see, this is the one hard to anticipate) would be that she felt this was a really long email this week and worth the higher rate, and I would point out that she told me she'd discuss it with me first before charging a higher rate, and she would acknowledge that and say she'll be clearer going forward. Then I'd have to tell her the inconsistency would bother me: I want a reliable plan, and we'd have to negotiate what would be included in a flat rate email, such as maybe one or two posts a day or something. (In fact, I just popped her a note to that effect, about me just writing one main post a day, letting her reply, and then me posting a second, final reply for that day.)
I am not liking that she offered me something completely of her own volition (I never asked or hinted for this) and that it's gotten complicated. I don't need complications in my already hectic life.
