(bats eyelashes) Oh, I could always ask you out... *ducking*
And you're correct -- I don't post general calls for help. In part because it often doesn't occur to me, in part because I don't want the emotional-hit that would come from daring to post a public call without much subsequent response. Which in turn is arguably a lack of trust of my friends, on my part.
Actually, I rather like your idea... kind of an augmented plan, instead of either being fully dependent on others or doing everything alone. It manages boundaries in (what seems to me to be) a safer fashion. If I don't *need* someone, then they have no power over me (other than what I choose to give). That's much more relaxing ;-)
