The husband discusses his relationship with his wife's favorite book, The Rulebook, which he considers as a security blanket. The wife suggests that the husband needs to find balance between trusting himself and using the book to function independently, while also reminding him that he can do things on his own.

I wanted to talk to you about something that's been on my mind lately.
gpt
Sure, what's up?
human
You know that book I always refer to? The rulebook?
gpt
Yeah, what about it?
human
Well, I've been thinking that maybe I rely on it too much. It's like a security blanket for me, and I don't know if that's healthy.
gpt
I understand where you're coming from. But I think having a set of rules to follow is helpful for you, especially considering everything you've been through.
human
I know, but what if I become too dependent on it? What if I can't function without it?
gpt
I don't think that's something to worry about. You've made progress over the years and have become more self-sufficient. And if you ever need help or guidance, I'm always here for you.
human
That's true. I guess I just need to find a balance between using the rulebook and trusting myself.
gpt
Exactly. As long as you're aware of how much you rely on it and can be open to trying new things, I think everything will be okay.
human
You're right. Thanks for listening and understanding.

Of course, any time. And remember, you gave me an injection without any problems and directed me to your destination in my car. You're capable of doing things on your own.
