Yes, you were raised to be understanding, generous and forgiving. You were taught that it's wrong to make people feel bad. You're afraid you'll make Denis feel bad if you say "sorry, bye" so the thought of doing so makes you feel guilty. <BR/><BR/>But Denis deserves to feel bad; he's a bleeding asshole, and the more you interact with him the worse you'll feel and the bitchier you'll be. That's not good for either of you and wastes a lot of time and energy. So, put the guilt aside and politely ask him to disappear. Shake the dust off your shoes and don't look back.<BR/><BR/>Yes, I know, easy for me to say because I'm a man and therefore a jackass but there you have it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
