I need to talk to you about something that's been on my mind for a while.
gpt
Of course. What is it?
human
Well, I've been feeling like I don't have a lot of say in our decision-making. I feel like my opinions are brushed aside and that my voice doesn't matter.
gpt
I'm sorry you feel that way, but I don't think that's true. I value your opinions and I always take them into consideration.
human
I appreciate that, but sometimes it feels like I'm not being heard. Like when we were talking about buying a new car, I expressed that I wanted something more fuel-efficient but we ended up buying a bigger car anyway.
gpt
I didn't realize that was such a big issue for you. I thought the bigger car would be more practical for our family.
human
I understand that, but it would have been nice to have a conversation about it and come to a decision together. I just want to feel like my input matters.
gpt
I understand and I'm sorry if I haven't been including you in our decisions like I should have. Let's make a conscious effort to communicate better and make sure both of us feel heard.
human
That sounds good to me. And just to be clear, this isn't just about the car. It's something that's been bothering me for a while.
gpt
I understand. Let's work on it together. And thanks for speaking up for yourself. It's important that we both feel valued in our relationship.
human
Agreed. And I think this will help make our relationship stronger overall.
