We humans are a fairly barbarous bunch.

In a relationship you have to open yourself up.

Relationships in general make people a bit nervous. It's about trust. Do I trust you enough to go there?

You start as an audience member and create a world you're interested in, and then you move into the telling of those stories, bringing what has interested you as an audience member.

Everyone has a little bit of Howard and Chad in them. I think there's Christine in all men as well.

But for me, it feels like a natural extension of what I've been doing: exploring relationships. Here you have two relationships and we can explore how difficult it is for people to be together.

I'm more than open to hope, but I think men and women have a difficult time dealing with each other and often take the low road.
