Despideme de Juan ??? ... a Juan?

Members of the Forum,

Could somebody explain the difference between:

"Despideme de Juan" and "Despideme a Juan"? I know that one structure is more polite than the other, but I always forget which is which.

And perhaps somebody could explain what the grammatical rationale is?

Thanks in advance,

Dean/Silopanna
