I just don't understand why you have a problem with me putting my mother's happiness before anything else.
gpt
It's not that I have a problem with you wanting your mother to be happy, but it's concerning that you prioritize her happiness over everything else, including our marriage.
human
I just want to make sure she's taken care of and that she knows she's loved.
gpt
And I want the same for my parents, but our marriage also needs to be a priority. We need to make decisions together, not just based on what our parents want.
human
I guess I just always thought that taking care of my mom meant saying yes to anything she wants. But I see now that's not fair to you or our relationship.
gpt
I appreciate you recognizing that. Let's work on finding a balance between making our parents happy and prioritizing our marriage.
human
Agreed. And I also want to make sure that we're both happy, not just our parents.
gpt
That's what I want too. We're a team, and we need to make decisions together that benefit us both.
human
And I think that decision we made last week about our finances was a great example of working together.
gpt
I agree. It was a compromise that we both felt good about, and it's going to help us reach our goals as a couple.
human
I think we're getting better at this whole marriage thing.
gpt
Me too. It takes work, but I know we can make it work as long as we communicate and prioritize each other.
