Sorry to double post. I just wanted to add something that was off-topic of my last...

She and I had talked tonight. I apologized to her for reacting the way that I did and I explained that it was my every intention to take her decision as "the way it was" and let it go.

However, I explained, my emotions took over and I sometimes have an issue where my emotions speak for me.

We re-hashed the origin of the problem, cool, calm and collected and talked about the best way to handle the situation.

Not being in the dark about how he just quit calling and coming by was a big starter. Letting management in on the situation was another.

Not necessarily going into detail, but letting them know that he was getting too attached too quickly and she prefer to not do the shift though if necessary, she would do it.

This way when management needed help at this particular house, she wouldn't be the first on the list to call. She is very dependable and is great at what she does so she IS a valuable resource there.

We talked for almost two hours tonight and I think things went well and she understands where i'm coming from and why I think it best if they had as little contact as possible.

It's not as if i'm tearing her apart from a lifelong friend. She barely met him a few months ago when all of this started happening so I don't feel guilty about my decisions and way of thinking.
