Answer 1

Well, if you're tired of fighting with him...then don't fight. What is resolved in these fights? Is anything ever accomplished? Do you ever see things his way and does he ever see them yours? Let him pick a fight with you if he wants to, but it's totally up to you the way you respond to it. You don't HAVE to fight with him.

If he does something to annoy you, then ignore it. He does it to get a reaction from you...if you don't give him that reaction he is looking for, then eventually he will stop doing it when you consistently refuse to give him a reaction.
