human
Why are you always criticizing me?
gpt
I'm not criticizing you, I'm just trying to understand why you're so angry right now.
human
You always have to find something to complain about. I can't even express myself without you getting all defensive.
gpt
I'm not being defensive, I just want to know why you're yelling at me.
human
Maybe because you always have to control everything! You never let me have my own way.
gpt
That's not true. I just want us to communicate better and not argue all the time.
human
Communication? You never listen to what I have to say. You always think you're right and I'm wrong.
gpt
I do listen to you, but sometimes we just have different opinions.
human
It's like that time when I got insulted and you didn't take my side.
gpt
I'm sorry if I didn't support you enough back then. But this is about our argument right now, let's try to focus on that.
human
Fine, but I just don't get why you have to be so difficult all the time.
gpt
I don't mean to be difficult, I just want us to resolve our issues calmly and respectfully.
human
Well, sometimes it's hard for me to control my emotions.
gpt
I understand that, but we can work on it together. Maybe we can try taking a break when we start to feel upset and come back to the conversation when we're both calmer.
human
Okay, I'll try to do that.
