An old regular of mine got in touch with me Thursday via e-mail and asked if he could come in and see me. I really thought about it, and then I told him no. I feel a little weird about the decision -- he has a lot of money, and there was a time when I liked him a lot. However, it's really never anything but drama every time he comes in. Since the second time he saw me he's been hounding me to dump my boyfriend, swearing that he's in love with me and we should be together, and so on. However, he certainly doesn't treat me the way you'd treat someone you care about -- pressuring me to see him OTC, putting all kinds of drama on me when I say no, making fun of my boyfriend, whom he doesn't even know, but is convinced that he must be some druggie loser taking advantage of me, and so on. He sets up dates with me in the club and then doesn't show up, then later sends me excuses about how seeing me is just too painful because I won't do whatever it is he wants me to do. Finally about four months ago he said he wouldn't be coming in to see me anymore, made a huge deal out of it, too. I was relieved. Then he pops up again this week.
I'm not one to turn down money casually. I've tolerated all sorts of bullshit in this job because the bullshitter was paying me enough to make it tolerable. But I've just had enough with this guy. After I wrote him back and said no -- quite politely -- I got a string of snide responses from him, which have only convinced me that I did the right thing. I actually feel really releived now.
Sometimes it's just not worth it, you know?
