He does it for this exact reason. He will push every single button until he get;s a response, then he has the power back.

Trick is, see it for what it is (a power game), laugh at it and remember this - he can't win the game if you're not playing. Don't play the game.


He'll keep escalating it until what? If I stay strong the whole time and don't respond or play his game, then what will happen? He'll explode with anger? I have read other sitches where they get nastier and nastier, but haven't read if it ends and what the end is. He's so dead set on a D. I don't think he'll give up.
