no progress

Every Thurs nite I go to an ACOA mtg. And I always feel the same way. That some woman in my life has finally pushed me so far that I have to set a boundary and detach with "love" or an ice pick. I want to just be a victim for a second and say..."why isn't just enough good enough for them why do they have to push so far".

• woman who tricked me to hosting bible study in my home for her and strangers in a religion I don't practice. - she just kept asking for one more thing, one more thing.
• therapist who told me the details of the previous person's visit (whom I saw when they left) to make up for her running over.
• the latest - a woman who I do computer work for for FREE who keeps asking for more and more. Then this morning calls me w/o a "got a minute to help" just demanding and with very angry comments. "why doesn't this computer just work"....well if you took a class and didn't wait until the last minute to do something it would. Shit I dropped everything and was helping - two different phone calls until I finally had enough of her bitching to say "hey I didn't sign up for this, you didn't even ask me if this was convenient. figure it out for yourself, I am hanging up". How much of a fool is she...she is getting free help and she is ungrateful. (I did tell her that) I have done 3 more things for her and we are supposed to to a 4th tomorrow. But she can call product support and sit on hold. I am done. Fool me once...

Still this is all me. I put on the face that says take advantage of me. But short of never being nice I don't know how to stop this from happening. I can do web/computer help and for now I will do it for free but I expect people to be nice when asking for help.

Oh well another friendship ruined or I guess I need to realize that it was one sided and we were not really friends at all.

xox I need a friend.
