aleCcowaN,

Yes, my intent was to say that those errands are my obligation and I’m asking for a substitute, so I’ll use “por mí” at the end of the sentence.

It makes sense to me now that if I use “me hicieras,” I’m actually implying “for my benefit” and not “as a substitute on my behalf.”

Thanks. That's helpful.

Poli,

I should have added more explanation as to what I was trying to say instead of just underlining “for me.” I understand what “para mí” implies, and I appreciate your input.
