I’m a 25F massage therapist and I use to work at massage envy until last week when I set up my own studio. My friend Diana (27F) wants to book an appointment with me and she insist I’d do it for free because we’ve been friends for years. I told her I can’t do free sessions right now because I've spent alot on setting things up and each session actually cost me money because I have to buy oil, lotion etc.She got annoyed and said “I'm being selfish”. I explained that I could give her a huge discount but I literally need all the money I can get rn, but even with my discount offer, She called me stingy and said if I “really cared,” I’d make it happen. Now a couple of mutual friends are saying that I’m making money off people I “claim to care about.” I feel bad because I don’t want to seem selfish, but at the same time, this is literally my job and how I pay my bills.If I can't keep the lights on I'd have to close shop, mind you, I just started.
