Sorry, I didn't mean to ignore you. What were you saying?
gpt
You were looking at your phone while I was talking to you and it's frustrating. I feel like you're not paying attention to me.
human
I know, I'm sorry. I was just checking my emails and lost track of the conversation. Can you repeat what you said?
gpt
It's just that sometimes I feel like you prioritize your phone over me. I understand you have work emails to answer, but I wish you could at least let me know that you need a moment to finish up.
human
I understand where you're coming from and I'll try to work on that. I don't want you to feel neglected or unimportant.
gpt
Thank you. It's just that communication is important to me and when I feel like you're not fully present, it makes me feel like you don't care.
human
I do care, and I promise to be more attentive in the future. Maybe we can set aside some phone-free time every day to focus on each other.
gpt
That sounds like a good idea. And it would be nice to have a little break from technology.
human
Agreed. And maybe it will also help us connect on a deeper level.
gpt
Definitely. I'm looking forward to it.
