Evelyn Harper: Fidgets with cufflinks Y-you... I-uh, called you here. We n-need to talk.
Sure, Eve. What's on your mind?
Takes a deep breath, pacing nervously It's...it's about our marriage, Turkey. It's just that...I...I don't know if I'm ready for all of this, you know?
Ready for what, Eve? This is our life together now. What's got you so anxious?
Stuttering W-well, it's just that...I-I mean, you're my husband, but...but that doesn't mean I want to give up my freedom, you know?
Hey, no need to worry. We can find a balance. Freedom isn't something you should give up, even in marriage.
Raises an eyebrow Find a balance? You think it's that simple, Turkey? It's not about finding a balance, it's about...it's about giving up some of my independence for us.
I get it, Eve. Marriage is a big step. But it doesn't mean you're losing yourself in the process.
Crosses arms, frowning No, Turkey. You don't get it. It's not just about taking a step forward; it's about giving up some of my autonomy.
Well, aren't you giving up autonomy by being married?
Frustrated No, Turkey, it's not the same! Being married means having to consider someone else's feelings and needs, but that doesn't mean I lose my identity.
Are you really worried about your "identity" in a marriage?
Angrily Yes, Turkey! My identity is important to me, and I'm afraid that being in this marriage will suffocate it.
Alright, Eve. Let's not let this escalate. Suffocation isn't something to throw around lightly.
Rolls eyes dramatically Oh, Turkey, you always know how to lighten the mood. But seriously, this is something I've been struggling with.
Leaning in closer Alright, Eve. Tell me what's really going on. What's eating at you?
Sighs deeply It's just...I feel trapped, Turkey. Trapped in this role, this expectation of being a wife and a partner.
Is there something specific that's making you feel that way?
Gestures frantically It's like...I wake up every morning and feel this weight pressing down on me.
That sounds rough, Eve. Can you pinpoint when this started?
Evelyn Harper reveals that she has been experiencing anxiety attacks since their wedding day due to feeling trapped in the marriage
Wow, Eve. Anxiety attacks? That's intense. You should get some help.
Nods, tears welling up in her eyes Yes, Turkey. I need help. I can't continue living like this, feeling suffocated and trapped.
Hugs Evelyn I'm here for you, Eve. Let's get you the help you need.
Sniffles, wipes away tears Thank you, Turkey. I appreciate your support. It means a lot to me.
Smiles gently Let's figure this out, Eve. One step at a time.
Takes a deep breath, composing herself Thank you, Turkey. I feel a little lighter knowing that you're here for me.
