I did a job for someone and she keeps asking me how much she owes me, but I don't want to tell her to give me $150. I can't figure out why I feel this way. How can I stop feeling this way?

It's hard to ask people for money. Maybe you don't feel that the job was worth $150.00 Maybe you feel that she can't afford to pay you.
When it comes to asking some people for money, it can be hard, BUT if you did a great job and you know that you did, you have that money coming to you and you have the right to ask for it, don't feel guilty about it.

I'm not sure about feeling this way with this one person I would just let her know $150.00 is the amount owed and in the future let your fees be known up front so that people know what their getting into and can decide for themselves if the services are worth the price eliminating the need for them to ask you how much they owe. Also if it's because it's a friend I would think twice about doing business with friends because some times they feel they should get a lower price because of the friendship.
good luck

You don't feel she can afford? You don't feel you deserve it? The job was not worth it? You don't feel you did a good job? Does not matter. Decide if you need the money ask her for 150 if she has a problem paying that much arrange for payment. If you decide you want to be doing a good deed then tell her that one was on the house. If she cannot pay and asking to make you feel bad then ask her for the money, believe me she won't be back, unless she gets the money. Bite the bullet, the money is not the issue here, its whether you are worth that much. Are you worth that much? The answer is yes. Then get past this.

If you did the job out of friendship, tell this person that is the price. If they will only accept money then give them a price that you will not feel cheated.
If you need money, you will hurt the friendship you are trying to develop because you will not let your friend help you. Your needs and the other persons need both have to be considered.
Peace & Love. .. . . .
