I have to be honest with you, I feel like I've been ignored lately.
gpt
What do you mean by that?
human
It's like I'm always the one who has to initiate conversation or make plans. It's exhausting.
gpt
I'm sorry if I've made you feel that way. I've been really busy with work and I guess I haven't been giving you the attention you need.
human
That's understandable, but it's been going on for a while now. I feel like my needs don't matter.
gpt
I hear you and I want to make things better. What do you suggest we do?
human
I think we need to work on our communication. It's not just about making plans, but also about checking in with each other and making sure we're on the same page. I also want to feel like you're interested in what's going on in my life.
gpt
I agree. I want to be more present for you. Let's make a conscious effort to communicate better.
human
That sounds good to me. And while we're on the topic, I also want to make sure that we're both compromising equally. I don't want you to feel like you're always the one making sacrifices.
gpt
I appreciate that. I think we've both been guilty of not considering each other's needs in the past. Let's make sure we're both heard and our needs are being met.
human
Absolutely. This is important to me and I want us to work together to improve our relationship.
