Be strong like water, be resilient like bamboo. If you remain in peace within yourself, your external circumstances won't affect you. His being a jerk is temporary. See the sacred in him. See his true essence as a spiritual being. You will have more compassion for yourself and for him both.

Speak and be damned is my take, SF. The hurtful part of the damning is in the damner, not in the damned.

And they're a great band too, The Damned.

It makes me mad when people say
I turned and ran like a scared rabbit.

who was running to go fight in another fight,
away from the first fight.

Straightforward

He cannot give you ulcers.  The propensity for ulcers is within yourself.   Say what you have to say, when you feel it is opportune to say it, and then let it go.  Refuse to be stressed by it.   Just be careful of your thoughts.  They may become words at any time.
