Gu Tian Le -- his/er words are often stunning yet strikingly true and full of worldly wisdom -- is right. State your case in a more concise, logical manner. Would that be difficult for a current PhD student?
If the program you are attending belongs to Tier 5 or lower in our Placement Rankings, dropping out and so leaving that professor alone could be an option to consider. Reapplying to PhD programs can be treacherous and so is often discouraged; among the reasons is that the admission committee cannot but raise questions about the reaplicant's intellectual suitability for, or commitment to, an academic research career. That said, one with solid performance and proven research potential in his or her former program may well give it a go. There are numerous success stories out there. Research record could overweigh course grades; therefore, it is desirable that you be able to show one completed working paper with some real promise. Also, you need to be particularly careful in selecting refernece letter providers as any backbiting from anyone may doom your chance. There has been quite some discussion previously in this forum on the reapplicaiton issue, and you may want to check that out. Other than that, take a look at the Quora chat: Is quitting my current PhD program and reapplying somewhere else a terrible idea? - Quora.
The above serves as further evidence bolstering up our earlier claim that issues relating to faculty-student relationship, which often have ethical or moral ramifications, most often occur in programs that are mid-ranking and below. These are rarely heard of in top programs.
