Stomach,

It sounds like he has ADHD. A lot of people have this that either don't realize it, or just ignore it. Typical symptoms are just what you described - can't keep a job or a relationship. It's always someone else's fault. They often times don't realize that what they are doing is inappropriate. They can be fun to be around, but a pain when it comes time to count on them. Don't be too hard on him - he won't understand, and blame you anyway. Just find an excuse not to have him finish the job. Keep him as a friend - but remember where to draw the line. I deal with this everyday - too much. It's difficult to keep your perspective and sense of humor.
