If ever you encounter difficulties, you should pat your back and talk to your relative self
(file #1), and say 'Before there was only you but now there are two of us. Before you had no one to depend on. You were looking for someone to lean on all by your self. Now you have me as well.' Have you done something like this?

I would take out the welding gear as soon as a split, dispute or difference of opinion arose and weld it.
