The husband feels like he never listens to anyone else and never listens to himself. He expresses frustration at the wife's tendency to talk about himself and interests, but the wife agrees to listen more and offer space for him to talk about his thoughts and interests. They agree to go on a hike together and wear wrinkle-free clothes and shoes.

I feel like you always talk about yourself and never really listen to anyone else.

What do you mean? I listen to you all the time.

I don't mean just listening to what I say, I mean really hearing me and understanding my perspective.
gpt
I didn't realize that you felt that way. I try my best to listen and understand where you're coming from.

It's just frustrating because I feel like we always end up talking about your problems and your interests. I want to feel heard too.
gpt
I'm sorry if it seems that way. I'll make more of an effort to really listen to you and give you space to talk about what's on your mind.

That's all I'm asking for. And maybe we can go on that hike I suggested a while ago. It might be a good opportunity for us to talk and connect more.

That's a great idea! And don't worry, I'll make sure to wear my wrinkle-free clothes and polished shoes.
