So I finally stood up to him and told him that he couldn't keep doing this and that he needed to hire professional help as I did to deal with my problems. Even gave him a good T name and pointed him in the right direction. If he doesn't get the message then I will have to be a little stronger the next time.

Is this an example of opposite action? Not sure I understand how that works.


That's more of an interpersonal effectiveness thing. Opposite action is more internal work .
