No, hes more than a year older.
I would say if youre the same age as your paramour, you should maybe do the Mr.-and-Mrs. thing.
I think its weird.
You havent even met them yet!
I think you could be honest; its better to.
I have really, really nice in-laws.
What is the secret there?
Just having nice in-laws?Yeah, Nicks just from this very Norman Rockwell-ish family.
Theyre good people and Nick has two sisters and a brother and theyre all really great.
Hes got a really big extended family also.
The first time I met his family it was overwhelming.
Do you have any specific advice for approaching cultural differences?
Do you study up or learn things naturally?No, Im not going to study up on anything.
I grew up in Oklahoma and honestly there was a lot of crossover.
They like to fish and my aunt and uncle used to take me fishing when I was younger.
I fished at the beginning, but I dont do it anymore because it kind of bums me out.
How complimentary do you think somebody should be?
Thats just a nice rule in general.
It doesnt hurt you to compliment somebody.
What about PDA?Im pretty PDA-ish, and I think Nick is too.
I dont understand that thing about no public displays of affection.
I think thats kind of a weird distancing mechanism.
How do you handle insults or rudeness?
I think you could be like, Maybe this isnt the right person for me.
Again, you should just be yourself, but not act like a jackass.
No, I dont know.
Nick is much better at that kind of thing than I am.
Its hard for me to be as ingratiating.
