The husband expresses feeling overwhelmed by his wife's absence from the house and wants her to feel safe and secure. They discuss hiring a nurse and starting activities together outside of the house, including hiking together.
human
I know you really need me here, but sometimes it gets overwhelming.
gpt
I'm sorry if I'm a burden. I just can't do certain things on my own.
human
I understand that, but sometimes I feel like I don't have a life of my own.
gpt
What do you mean?
human
I mean that I feel like I'm always here taking care of you and I don't have time for anything else.
gpt
I don't want you to feel trapped here. Maybe we can hire a nurse to help me out.
human
That's a good idea. And maybe we can start doing things together outside of the house.
gpt
That would be great. You have been such a big help to me and I don't know what I would do without you.
human
I know, and I will always be here for you. But I also want us to have a life outside of this house.
gpt
Remember when we used to go on hikes together? I miss doing that.
human
Yeah, I miss it too. Maybe we can start going on short walks around the neighborhood to get started.
gpt
That's a great idea. And we can work our way up to longer walks and then eventually hikes.
human
Exactly. It's important for us to have time for ourselves and our relationship, while also taking care of your needs.
