It's like, okay, I know by blood it's supposed to be there and I'll never take blood out of the equation, but we don't have to act like family.

We don't have to have everybody over at the cookout.

You know what I mean?

Like we don't have to have everybody over at Thanksgiving.

And those who are, that's family.

And that's how we define it.

So as a grown adult now, what I've realized, Rudy, is I don't put myself in uncomfortable slash tense situations.

I can get uncomfortable when I'm trying to learn something, when I'm personally trying to grow.

Right.

Like I want to be uncomfortable in that sense.

I don't want to be uncomfortable around human beings.

And so I don't put myself in those situations anymore.

Yeah.

So, so here's how I'm going to answer that.

I'm going to say it makes you closer.

Yes.
