Your comment "It's why I often drink myself into a coma everynight" really caught my eye. I'm an alcoholic in recovery and that sounds exactly like the kind of insane rationalization I used to use to drink. If you're capable of really getting honest with yourself, you may find that you dislike him because you really dislike yourself. It's very easy to project feelings of low self worth onto someone else to avoid looking at ourselves. I did it for years to my wife until I got sober.
