[quote=Anonymous]Dealing with him - - do not be in a confined space with him ever. I have relatives with whom I will never, ever go out with them on their sailboat. There's no escape. You need to always have an escape plan. If it's a family gathering, mingle. Buffets are best. Do not sit near him or if you have the option get up and change spots if conversation goes downhill. Meet in a neutral location. Have your own wheels to get home. Don't invite to your house unless you have to. And if you do, make sure there is a definite ending to the event - never invite them over to just "hang out" Don't confide in this person. Don't expect they will change. Don't expect an emotional bond. Don't take them on as-a-project. Most of all - do not create drama. Act civil which is not that difficult to do. [/quote]
