In these kinds of situations (in general)...I would redirect the question and ask him to explain in his own words exactly what bothers him..and why. A lot of times when a person gets out of their head and hears themselves it can unlock things that might otherwise be unseen.....
It also seems that in these kinds of situations the other one is defining the conversation by insisting you respond to their neurosis...though they rarely thank you when you point it out you ARE doing them a favor!
