A: I've tried to be kind to him against my better judgment.

B: Now you know he won't change.

A: 我一直尽心善待他，虽然明知不智。

重点解说：

★ against my better judgment「虽然明知不智」此语表示虽然明知做某事是不智的或不可取的，自己仍然没头没脑的做了。cf. He is a man of good [poor] judgment.「他的判断力很好[很差]。」"Don't be judgmental."一语也很常用，意思是「不要主观的下判断。」

★ reliable「可靠的，值得信赖的(=dependable, trustworthy)」

M:  I've tried to be kind to him against my better judgement.
F:  What do you mean by that? Didn't you know he was not reliable?
M:  Yes, I did. But I wanted to give him another chance.
F:  Now you know he won't change.
