The fact that he is not acting respectfully is apparent to anyone, and I suspect even him in his MLC-fogged brain. But, it's justified in that brain too, and not so disrespectful. I really think they honestly don't see it that way either, or don't want too.
Regardless, when they're in the fog, pointing out the obvious, I feel, isn't heard, and also fuel for "see, this is why I can't be with her." Either way, it's pointless and a loss.
So, save the frustration and keep it to the facts.
