The only way to win is not to play the game... I know I know - so much easier said than done! But if you continue to feed conscious and emotional energy into whatever this person is creating - then you won't be able to free yourself from the negativity & turmoil... You have to push yourself to connect with something above & higher than this current 'human drama' and 'earthly shenanigans' - and this will enable you to prevent yourself from being sucked in and dragged down by it. You very well may discover that once you successfully achieve this - the external circumstances which initially influenced you to move in this new direction, will dissolve or have greatly changed... The 'human experience' places us in challenging situations that initially make us feel 'trapped' and like victims of uncontrollable circumstances. It's only once you successfully navigate your way through such circumstances and subsequently transform (evolve) your state of consciousness as a result that you then realize the higher purpose behind it all and find acceptance & understanding (upon which you can finally feel at peace within yourself).
