 I think keeping friday is a good idea, if you went any other day it may interfere even more with your job.

I hope you are right. I guess I am just looking for any logical reason to quit, when I know I should not.... silly I know, I sought her out I asked for her help but now that I am in the middle of the mess... I'm not sure I want it.
I really don't like the fact that it is impacting my work... just not something that is acceptable to me.
I know this sounds weird, but I don't want to be special to her, I don't want to be anything but a client to her... I would feel very awkward if I were special to her, I just need to be her client, pay her for her services... and leave it at that.. on the other hand I can care for her and worry for her, but I don't want her to care about me other than that I am her client... it makes me too vulnerable.. does that make sense? As long as I pay her, there is a safe line, she is doing what I pay her to do. I owe her nothing, but if she thinks I am special, etc... then I owe her something and that is unacceptable...
