how to say no

of late, i am getting more and more irritated with someone whom i felt has taken advantage of me. and the problem is, i don't know how to say no. despite hinting so many times to him about him getting on with the project himself, he has time and again, come back to me.

sighs! at first, when he asked me to help him for one part of his project, i agreed. and then he came back again for the next part, and the next part, and the next part. and it came to a point where i felt i am almost doing the project for him. feeling frustrated, i had time and again hinted that he should try to do it himself. but he just refused to get the hint.

sighs. and i get the feeling that he needs me to endorse every step he takes, give comments about his report. imagine, he even sms me and ask me if he can do this or do that, write this or write that etc etc etc. and despite me telling him that the person he should seek comment from is his supervisor and not me, he still incessantly get back to me. what i really think now is that he simply lacks the confidence to do the project in the first place.

i should perhaps be a bastard and not have agreed to help him in the first place.

sighs sighs sighs.
