He doesn't speak Spanish.

Total language barrier for Arthur and Esther, yeah.

And so, but he was pretty persistent.

So...

I don't have a set and fast rule for guys.

I would just encourage them if there seems to be some possibility there for friendship and you have some intuition that this is going to work, be persistent.

But obviously, if after one or two dates, she's very clearly opposed, you've got to let go and move on.

But I think for a lot of these stories, there's a kind of ambiguity, you know, and he keeps persisting and she's not entirely sure.

But again, it's sort of like she sees over time that he's the kind of guy, and Arthur Brooks is a very impressive person, you know, who has what it takes, you know, to be a good friend and a good spouse.

I think we're all aware of like the importance of, you know, diet and alcohol and all that kind of things.

But I think we aren't always kind of attentive to the ways in which our relationships matter so much for our health.

You know, like if we're in a good relationship, our health is, you know, going to be a lot better than if we're in a bad relationship or if we're sort of single and alone.

And so we see in the research is that people who are married, especially people who are

happily married or people who are like in a good enough relationship are more likely to be flourishing on the health front.

And there's one exception when it comes to people being married, they're less healthy in one major way.

And in part two, maybe you enjoy more good home cooking.
