“Conceptually it’s kind of about you know you got that idea that your other half maybe isn't overly happy with you and you could see it on their face that they’re not happy but they’re not explaining why.”

“What are your guys’ names? Aliah and Daniel. You said ‘we’ve been dating for six years, should we get married?’ Are you kind to each other? Do you love eachother? Do you look after each other? Do you protect each others solitude? Are you friends to each other? Through thick and thin? For rich or for poorer? Till death do you part? Just so you know, I’m ordained! I only have to say a couple more sentences and you’re basically married! No, that's not true, we need paperwork. Yeah, get married! Why not.”

The fact that Harry is reading Rainer Maria Rilke and casually quoting him like that 🤯

So, I went in search of the quote having no knowledge of Rilke at all, but I found so much more, and it’s so interesting.

These are quotes taken from an article called The Difficult Art of Giving Space in Love: Rilke on Freedom, Togetherness, and the Secret to a Good Marriage, where the author takes a Rilke anthology and breaks down the thoughts. It’s really interesting, because it’s so centered on caring for a long term relationship and ensuring it’s longevity and happiness and it just… makes you think about what Harry is reading and why.

My conclusion: Maybe “Do you protect each other’s solitude?” is a phrase Harry learned from therapy, or maybe he reads Rilke just for the betterment of his person.

But it’s such interesting phrasing that it’s by no means spontaneous, and that has me wondering why he’s working on things particularly related to ensuring a long term relationship (in Rilke’s words: a marriage) flourishes in its solitude, individuality and distance.
