I just want you to know that I fully respect your decision to get a divorce.
gpt
Thank you. It wasn't an easy decision, but it's for the best.
human
I understand. I know I've hurt you in the past with my actions, and I can't blame you for wanting to end things.
gpt
It's not just about what you did. It's also about how you handled it. You never fully took responsibility for your actions, and I couldn't keep pretending that everything was okay.
human
I know, and I'm sorry. I wish I could go back and change things, but I can't. All I can do now is accept your decision and try to move forward.
gpt
I appreciate that. It's not going to be easy, but we can try to make the process as smooth as possible.
human
Agreed. Do you have any specific plans for how we should proceed?
gpt
I've been doing some research and talking to a lawyer. I think we can try to do a collaborative divorce, where we work together to come to an agreement on things like property division and child custody.
human
Okay, that sounds like a good idea. I'm willing to work with you on that.
gpt
That's a relief to hear. I know it's not going to be easy, but we need to try to keep things civil for the sake of our children.
human
Absolutely. They're the most important thing to both of us, and we need to do what's best for them.
gpt
Agreed. And if we can continue to communicate like this and work together, I think we can make this as painless as possible for everyone involved.
human
I hope so. We have a lot of work to do, but I'm willing to do whatever it takes to get through this.
