lost8, it is time to take stock. Step outside of your sitch and really look at it. If you were one of your friends, what would you advise him to do?

I'm not a big fan of doing things with active cheaters. So I would bow out of the sporting event trip.

Expectations are difficult to not have. We LBS tend to hang on every word and action of our WAS. This is bad for a few reasons:

1) Puts us on a roller-coaster ride
2) Applies pressure to WAS (they feel under a microscope because each thing they say and do gets a reaction)
3) Causes us to behave in irrational ways instead of being level and confident in what we are doing

DBing is nearly impossible to do well if you attach expectations to it. In fact, we spend most of our time here advising LBSs to drop any and all expectations.
