Thank you, again for the responses new friends! I guess I'm worried I'm misconstruing this situation. (One of my main issues seems to be overthinking everything- especially women- to the point of creating a problem.) one of my good trusted friends told me "of no physical lines have crossed, and you're making progress, who cares if you two are a little friendly?" And I think I'm rolling with that for now. I've really grown to trust her- and perhaps everything she has said and shared has just been her way of getting me to open up. I think her letting me know she is also a lesbian was her way of telling me that she is a safe ally. Maybe. Who knows. I did, however, try and say I'd like to only come once a week as opposed to twice a week due to my progress....(I was too chicken to bring all this up) and that didn't go as planned. She was apprehensive and said it's best we stick to two for now to keep foraging on with progress. I think I'm going nutty.
