The husband told off his friend's brother after seeing him take candy from the counter. The wife suggests politely asking permission to take something without permission instead of telling off. They also discuss the husband's anger towards everyone and discuss how they can work together to manage it better.

You won't believe what happened at my friend's house yesterday.
gpt
What happened?
human
I saw her brother take a candy from the jar on the counter, so I told him off.
gpt
Why did you do that?
human
I wanted to be assertive. It's not okay to take something without asking.
gpt
I understand, but maybe you could have handled it differently.
human
How do you mean?
gpt
Instead of telling him off, you could have just politely asked him not to take anything without permission.
human
Hmm, I see your point. I guess I let my anger get the best of me.
gpt
It happens to everyone. By the way, how's the situation with the bet going?
human
It's going well. I'm confident I'll win and get that new car.
gpt
Just be careful not to get too caught up in it. You don't want to lose sight of what really matters.
human
I know, I know. Thanks for reminding me. Speaking of losing sight of things, I wanted to talk to you about something else.
gpt
What's on your mind?
human
I've been feeling really angry lately. I feel like I can't do anything right and that everyone is against me.
gpt
I'm sorry you're feeling that way. Is there anything I can do to help?
human
Just talking about it with you helps. I'm just so fed up with feeling this way. I want to scream.
gpt
I understand. Maybe we can work together to figure out why you're feeling this way and find ways to manage it better.
human
That sounds like a good plan. Thanks for being there for me, babe.
