The husband expresses regret about going to his ex-girlfriend's party because she feels guilty about it. The wife advises him to be polite and brief in order to avoid engaging in long conversations if she wants to talk about past events.
human
Hey, so I've been thinking about the party this weekend.
gpt
Yeah, what about it?
human
I don't think I'm going to go.
gpt
Why not?
human
I just found out that my ex-girlfriend is going to be there and I really don't want to see her.
gpt
You shouldn't avoid going to the party just because of one person. Plus, it's been years since you two broke up.
human
I know, I know. But I feel guilty about it. I don't want to hurt her feelings.
gpt
I understand where you're coming from, but you need to think about what's best for you. If you're not comfortable going, then don't go.
human
Yeah, but what if she comes up to me and wants to talk?
gpt
Just be polite and keep things brief. You don't have to engage in a long conversation if you don't want to.
human
That's true. Thanks for understanding.
gpt
Of course. Is there anything else on your mind?
human
No, not really. But I'm glad we talked about this.
gpt
Me too. Anything else you want to talk about from the past or present?
human
No, I think that's it for now. Thanks for listening.
