He's got an inflated opinion of himself, and doesn't really have to answer to anyone. I'm pretty sure there's nothing that a guy on a message board can say to change either of those things.

It's time to let it go...at the very least, move ahead to the next stage of the Kubler-Ross model. Denial hasn't worked. Anger is only making it worse. Have you considered bargaining? It won't work either, but it will bring you a step closer to acceptance.
