Has anyone ever experienced a provider asking them for help and if so what did you do?
A Latina provider was let go from a place I use to see her at. We had exchanged numbers and we would talk periodically. I would ask her sometimes about seeing her at a hotel but she said that she didn't like going to hotels and didn't seem open to seeing me for an outcall otherwise. Anyways she text me a week ago apologizing for being distant but she has had some money trouble since losing extra money from not working at a spa and just doing uber now.
I know she was interested in psychology and social work so I was able to secure her an interview at my company and she just had to send her resume which I told her I would help her with. She said it was a great idea but she never followed up with me on it.
Today she asked if I could help her with $500.00 and help with her resume because the heat in her house is off and she had to use money to fix her car. She told me she felt really ashamed to ask. I told her I can't give her 500 like that and maybe I can see what I can do but I will help with her resume. She told me she doesn't really have help from people in her life. I told her I understand and can try to help but mentioned that it made me feel weird since she never wants to meet up when ever I had asked and didn't follow up with the job offer previously. I didn't get a response .
What would you guys do? (I'm not going to give her 500 since we aren't friends like that and i feel she is trying to take advantage of my kindness but I will help with her resume is she is serious about it). Part of me felt bad telling her I'd give her 500 if we did few hour outcall session since she was in a lurch so I didn't suggest that. And no she didn't mention anything about paying me back or offering a session for the money either...she just wanted me to help if I could.
