> Perhaps you could share with him that you are concerned about him seeing one of your friends - that, yes, you gave her his name, but that you would feel more comfortable if he didn't actually see her. You are his patient right now, she's not, so you have first dibs. Do you know for sure that he would treat her anyway?
<<<I don't know for sure that he would, but I might feel silly bringing it up. If he asks why then I would say "Because she is prettier than I am." That is truly the only reason why, competition. What if she is a better client, or he thinks she is prettier? I'm just being dumb.. Me and my big mouth. I even saw a client once who I thought was prettier than I and I asked him about her. I explained that my regular time was pushed so that she could come in and explained what she looked like. He said and I quote, "Oh, you don't have to worry about her." I felt better, but what the hell does that mean??? Sometimes I think he has a big mouth too.... I just wish I called him on it half as much as he called me on it, you know?
