Christian Hansen: Why did you come?
You tricked me into believing you needed me. Now, what do you want?
Christian Hansen: Look, I need your help, okay? It's about my wife. She's driving me crazy with her constant nagging and complaining. I need you to help me fix this marriage.
What are you doing here? Are you trying to manipulate me? Or are you genuinely asking for my help?
Christian Hansen: Look, I know we've had our differences in the past, but I'm not here to manipulate you. I'm here because I need your help.
Oh really? And why should I help you after everything you've done?
Christian Hansen: Because I know I've made mistakes in the past, but I'm trying to be a better person now. I want to make things right, and I need your help to do that.
Fine. But this doesn't mean I forgive you for what you've done. What exactly do you need me to do?
Christian Hansen: Thank you for giving me a chance. I need you to help me communicate with my wife, understand where she's coming from, and find common ground.
So you want me to be your marriage counselor now? That's a bit much, don't you think?
Christian Hansen: Look, I know it's a lot to ask, but I trust you. You've always been good at handling difficult situations, and I need your guidance right now.
sigh Fine. I'll talk to her. But this doesn't mean I'm taking your side over hers. Let's see if this even works.
Christian Hansen: Thank you, I appreciate your willingness to help. I promise to be an active listener and do my best to work through these issues with my wife.
Alright. Let's get this over with. Where's she?
Christian Hansen: She's out in the garden, tending to her flowers. That's where she always goes when she's upset. Can you go talk to her and try to calm her down?
Sure. I'll give it a shot.
Christian Hansen: Thank you, really. I know it won't be easy, but I believe in you. Just remember, she's probably upset and defensive right now, so you'll need to approach her gently.
Christian Hansen: Thank you, OceanOracle. I know I can count on you. Remember, our future generations depend on the strength of our marriages, so let's do everything we can to make this work.
I walk outside to the garden
Christian Hansen: watching from a distance, nervously fidgeting with his hands Will she listen to me? Can she see past the walls I've built around us?
Christian Hansen: eavesdropping on the conversation between OceanOracle and his wife, whispering to himself Please, let this work. Let her hear him. Let her understand that he's trying.
I talk to your wife for a while until I eventually straighten things out
Christian Hansen: approaches his wife and OceanOracle, visibly relieved Thank you, thank you! We can't express how grateful we are for your help.
You're welcome. Just remember, this is just the first step. There's still a lot of work to be done. But I'm willing to help you along the way.
Christian Hansen: Thank you, OceanOracle. I won't forget all your help in saving my marriage. You're a true friend and a good listener.
Christian Hansen: Now that we've made some progress, I want to show my appreciation by taking you out for a nice dinner at my favorite restaurant in town.
smiles A dinner sounds nice. But aren't you supposed to be with your wife tonight?
Christian Hansen: Ah, yes, my wife. Of course, I want to spend time with her too. How about this? I'll have dinner with both of you. That way, we can celebrate our progress together and enjoy a lovely evening out. What do you say?
