[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 271626, member: 3907"] Thanks everyone. Your insights, as always, are spot on. She IS focusing only on her needs, at the expense of mine. I can't ever imagine asking her to give me free dance lessons, or to do my company books at no charge (her other line of work), and her request seems to be equivalent to that. I don't normally resent doing favours for people, so I was having trouble understanding why this one was setting off warning bells for me. Thanks for helping me to clarify things. I think I'll be sending her a polite but firm no. Whew! Trinity [/QUOTE]
