The husband admits to being shy around people, but the wife suggests practicing conversation starters beforehand. They also discuss the husband's habit of leaving the oven timer on and the wife's successful project at work.
human
I'm really shy around people I don't know.
gpt
I know, but that's okay. You don't have to be outgoing all the time.
human
It's just hard sometimes, especially when I have to meet new people for work.
gpt
Have you tried practicing some conversation starters beforehand?
human
No, I haven't thought of that.
gpt
It might help you feel more comfortable if you have some topics in mind to start with.
human
That's a good idea. Maybe I can try that next time.
gpt
Definitely. And remember, you don't have to be the life of the party. Just be yourself and you'll do great.
human
Thanks for understanding. Speaking of being wasteful, have you thought about using the oven timer instead of leaving it on for hours after you're done cooking?
gpt
Oh, right. I'll try to remember to use the timer from now on.
human
And the whole driving with the windows down and AC on when it's cold outside thing, do you think you can work on that too?
gpt
I'll try. But it's just a habit I have, you know?
human
I understand, but it's costing us a lot of money in utility bills.
gpt
I know, I'll try to be more mindful of it. Hey, speaking of being in control, how's that project at work going?
human
It's going well, actually. I feel like I can handle it and it's been a great learning experience.
gpt
That's awesome to hear. I'm proud of you for taking on such a challenge.
human
Thanks, it means a lot. It's been great talking to you about all this.
gpt
Same here. And remember, I'm always here to support you.
