The reality is that one of you is definitely crazy and it's not you....

I have a similar problem with my mother in law who still has 4 horses left over from her eralier days of trail riding, hunting and breeding, but everything she knows is either self-taught or was taught to her by her friend who is self taught. Combine this with a fragile ego and inability to take the advice of others, I often find myself resisting the urge to pull out my own hair with frustration.

Some people just can't handle admiting the truth, even when the opposite only incriminates them further.
