Don't come around here no more

LOL. I think you'll find that if you engage in his accusations, you lend weight to it rather than prove that he's wrong. Make sense? If you know you're not that person, and don't engage in it, then it's up to everyone else to figure out if he's right or if he's angry and twisted and trying to hurt you. People have a way of figuring things out pretty quickly. Some will continue to hang with him regardless (they like the drama), but most will later come back and say, "Gee, he was a real ass. You're lucky to get away" I've had that many many times and it still continues. It doesn't make me feel better, but it reinforces that I don't want to lend credence to the accusations.

Academically, it's easy to know that. Emotionally, it takes a bit longer...

Peace,
