He basically accused me of creep stepping in, and said that was what gave me an advantage, when in fact the reason I pushed him over and over and over was that he was not even aware of the internal mechanics going on

Should I just continue to work with all the different people of all types, or should I just work with the ones who are on the same page? Should I just keep pushing them around and pissing them off, or just leave it alone? It's like I still get the practice, but is it worth it?

If anything is out of alignment or tense the fa is not clear. I have had some injuries that caused a lot of problems I am still rectifying. I think for the people who have issues losing, it seems better to just maintain control, but also I know those are the ones who are really trying.

I understand wanting to help others, but, as you are aware, some people can't be helped: they don't want it.
