T,

I was talking to a couple people at lunch today and they both suggested that I ask you if you have a sliding scale for people like me who can't afford to see you as much. The thing is though, that for as long as I've seen you, as poor me, you've never mentioned or hinted at that. I'd think that you would've by now especially since you are aware of my finances. You always say stuff like, "I could see you every week if you wanted but you don't make a lot of money. My only concern is that it costs you a lot of money to see me. You work hard for your money." Is this something that you have no control over because it is Dr. F's business? Should I ask him?

I'm afraid to bring this up because I don't want to feel rejected. I don't want to put you in an awkward position. I don't want to hear you say, "No." Maybe you haven't mentioned the idea because you really don't want to see me more often? I wonder if I should just leave things the way they are since I'm already coming to accept it?

Wow, I actually have something that I want to tell you but I don't know how. Now I'm feeling sad again. I don't like the idea that I there's something on my mind that I am afraid to share with you. :-(
