I've been thinking a lot about the rulebook I follow when it comes to feeling safe. 
gpt
What do you mean by rulebook? 
human
I mean the set of rules that I've created for myself to follow in different situations. Like when I'm rock climbing, I follow a set of safety procedures to minimize the risk. 
gpt
I see. And does following those rules make you feel more secure? 
human
Yes, it does. It gives me a sense of control and predictability. 
gpt
Do you think you rely too much on those rules sometimes? 
human
Maybe. But I don't see it as a bad thing. Isn't it good to have a plan and stick to it? 
gpt
I guess so. But I also think it's important to be flexible and adaptable in certain situations. 
human
That's true. Like when we were driving the other day and I directed you where to go, you had to be flexible and follow my instructions. 
gpt
Yes, but that was also because I was driving your car and not mine. 
human
Right. But my point is that sometimes we need to trust other people and their rules, not just our own. 
gpt
I agree. It's all about finding a balance between following rules and being flexible. 
human
Exactly. And for me, having my rulebook gives me the confidence to step out of my comfort zone and try new things, like climbing a mountain. 
gpt
I admire that about you. Just make sure you're not limiting yourself by relying too heavily on those rules. 
human
I'll do my best. Thanks for the advice, love.
