Quote From: jeanniej70wow, Seems like all you want her for is for her help, but not for her friendship which seems like that is what she wants from you. I mean you need to read what you wrote. the first hour you met her you asked her to watch your animals. That is some nerve. then you get mad when she wakes you up from a nap? I think you ARE using her to care for your animals. You dont want to hear her YAP, you cantbe bothered by her but you want her help. What a one sided realtionship. You want from her but dont want to give to her. I mean you want her help 4-6 times a month. I think you are riude to ask a neighbor for help that much. Maybe if you cant afford to board them then you need to not go. I mean serisouly read what you wrote. wow. I wish this lady could see how you really feel cause I am sure she would drop your ungrateful self like a hot rock! My suggestion,. .... dont travel or board your animals this is your burdon.
Well, you're right. I really don't want her friendship. This is/was a business arrangement from the gitgo. I pay her to care for my cats. I felt perfectly at ease asking her to watch them, because I included what I would pay her, per diam, when I asked her. I don't consider that any different than someone I just met asking me to trim their Christmas tree, for pay. I certainly don't feel they should be grateful - the pay is all the gratitude I want.
It is she who wants a friendship, and I foolishly, got myself into it, before I knew we only have about 3 hours of the day to be friends, because she sleeps all day and I sleep all night. And those 3 hours, I have work to do online.
Oh, and I did not say I wanted her help 4-6 times a month, I said I am gone, ususally 4-6 days a month and that is in a row, not 4-6 times.
My problem is how to get this woman to realize I am not interested in being her friend - I just wand her to work for me for pay, when I need her if she is free to do so.
Maybe you're the one who needs to read my first post again. :)
