Overview
Once bitten, twice shy -- someone who was all talk and no action in a previous situation has not changed. If possible, try to take the lead in this partnership. If it's business-related, it's up to you to make it work. If this is a romantic partnership, you need to accept that this person is not going to start behaving differently. What you do with that information is up to you -- a reevaluation may be in order.
