Dealing with Mr. Manipulation

I am sooo tired of having to figure out this persons motivation. He can't seem to be real. EVER! It's all about trying people to "prove" they don't care about you! I wonder if he'll every be able to be up front? Here's an idea, If you do what you're supposed to do & I do what I'm supposed to do, without all the game playing, it just seems life would be a lot better for both of us! And if you don't do what's expected then there are consequences. That's true for everyone in life. Instead you DON'T do what you're supposed to do & if I get upset then it's my fault & is your "proof" I don't really care about you. Good grief how childish. Grow up! You're over 40, is it possible for you to grow up or are you emotionally retarded? OK, I know I can not change another person. I can only change myself. My goal will be to not let your childish behavior get under my skin. You will have to deal with your issues yourself if they're ever resolved. I can't fix you. Reality is...everyone screws up sometimes. Accept responsibility, make it right if you can & move on.
