If my healing partner is being a brat, I tend to let them fend for themselves and let them die if they can't have the foresight to heal themselves after taking a hit.

Example #1 - yesterday I was in Sephirot normal. There were some new people, the tank I was with was explaining the fight to the new people. SCH I was partnered with Adlo'd someone, popped E4E, and Deployed them while tank was explaining fight. Tank continued to explain fight because and then SCH popped Succor + Whispering Dawn then moved Eos into the middle, pulling aggro on the boss.

At that point in time I didn't bother to heal him at all if he was going to be impatient twat about things. He almost died to the Arena cutting attack + AoE in P1 but managed to survive, much to my chagrin.

Example #2 - In the 3.1X era, I Trial DR'd into Ifrit HM on AST and got partnered with a WHM. I popped into Nocturnal and fight progressed as normal. WHM refused to leave Cleric Stance AT ALL. Never bothered to Regen the MT and never bothered to heal. The only heal they actually used was Medica II after Hellfire. Call me bitter, but I actually positioned myself close to the WHM and hoped the multi stacked eruptions would kill them as I went on as business as usual healing the group.
