I think y I think you'd be better off making it a non subject.
voice-verified
You know, basically y you know, there's all sorts of ways you can avoid saying things and uh but I think what Zeke did in the end is he also just
voice-verified
dealt with it directly, but he didn't deal with it as in come out and have a brawl.
voice-verified
He came out and said what mattered to parents, which is
voice-verified
You know, he named it as as it was.
voice-verified
I'm I'm not the ideal person but I'm here for your daughter.
voice-verified
I think the difficulty with his side of that um situation is if a partner comes along who in fact you do connect well with because you have the s same values, so they're both atheists.
voice-verified
The parents are always gonna think that the girlfriend kinda turned him.
voice-verified
Um so in fact not owning up to it leaves your partner twisting in the wind a bit.
voice-verified
You know, they carry the they carry the can for
voice-verified
the sort of bad thing that's happened to you instead of knowing you were attracted because in fact you agree with them.
voice-verified
Um so I think I think you've got to also protect your partner by being honest with what's going on for you too.
voice-verified
And in what
voice-verified
Well, I think if if you did everything, including, you know, just staying calm and writing it out, I think by staying calm and being friendly and just getting on with having your relationship, you've got to check if it's a relationship you wanna be bothered with.
voice-verified
So w the more confident you become and the more sort of calmly you don't you don't take it on, you know that it's about parental pro t protectiveness or something like that.
voice-verified
And you just try and write it out.
voice-verified
And if there's a point where there's open warfare um or you're just not cutting through, then I think what Zeke did, which is to take maybe one the more the more workable parent to one side and say
voice-verified
You know, look, this is how I feel.
voice-verified
Um, then but to say it calmly and responsibly, that's very attractive.
voice-verified
You know, that's a very you know, it's hard to it's hard to be angry with someone who's as direct as that.
