spot. One of them bound to be ridiculous and thus easy to spot.
When it comes call him on it. It’s time to shame him and shame him good
“That’s ridiculous.”
“How naïve do you think I am?”
“Who do you think you’re kidding?”
“Do you handle all your business affairs as pathetically as this?”
“Do the other businesses you deal with know you’re in such
a bad situation?”
If he is having trouble paying some of his bills it’s likely the other people
he deals with aren’t aware of his situation, because he knows they won’t
stand for the kind of crap he is pulling on you, so he doesn’t try it on
them.. And you shouldn’t let him pull it on you, either.
He wants you to feel sorry for him. By creating a situation where he
has to lie, and then making him explain his lies he may begin to realize
just how pathetic he sounds to others. I firmly believe that even someone
with a comatose conscience can be awakened and turned around by using
this approach.
