That was the exact same thought that I had! I am a new interpreter, and though not yet certified, I am interpreting in a professional capacity. It is a difficult line to figure out! You don't want to draw the line too much and lose your friends, but you also don't want to be too friendly and be violating the CPC--when trying to figure out what professional means, I believe EVERY person has their ups and downs in any field, but it is more difficult when you are in the Deaf community and everyone knows each other-- they "watch you grow up"
I am almost positive that the new interpreter will come around, if they were really friends in the first place. I don't think the relationship could have gone on that long if they hadn't had SOME kind of relationship, because both of them would have been bored and had nothing to talk about. Good luck to both of them!
