You're right about the relationship; I have often wondered how they could get along, but it is exactly that, a doing relationship. Normally I'm more skillfully redirecting conversations, but sometimes it seems the only things he will talk about are politics, religion, and items far too personal for me to want to hear about. Every parry seemed to fail, until finally I gave in in the hopes of rational conversation. Not my best move, alas.
(I was very impressed at how C handled it, I should note.)
