Oh, no, no no. Don't put yourself out, it's alright.

[He waves his hands in front of him to drive the point home.]

I've asked him three times over the years, each time he turned me down because of one thing or another and he was put out by the third, so finally I just told him that instead of me starting to ask every day as I wanted to, I'll just leave it up to him to ask when he's ready. I'll always be ready, anyway, though it's not really going to change anything. We still act like a married couple regardless, but it's a symbol of something to him. He's far more devout than I am.

[Wolfe rubs the back of his head, looking aside.]

I just don't want him to think I asked you to pressure him or something else ridiculous.
