So, today I was doing some math problems, and I got stuck on one. I asked my teacher for help, but she was busy with other students.

Did you figure it out on your own?
human
Yeah, I ended up wiping the board clean and starting over. Sometimes it's easier to just start from scratch instead of trying to fix what's already there.
gpt
That's a good point. But it's also important to not give up too quickly and keep trying to find a solution. 
human
I agree. It's all about finding a balance between persistence and knowing when to start fresh.
gpt
Speaking of starting fresh, I've been thinking about what you said last time. 
human
About me wanting to make things right?
gpt
Yeah. And I appreciate your apology and willingness to work things out. But I need some time and space to process everything.
human
I understand. I just hope that one day we can reconcile and move forward together.
gpt
Me too. But for now, let's just focus on our individual growth and healing.
