How to be a part of your partner's life:

darling, i never once considered whether or not i like these bowls because they serve the purpose i need them to. What do you not like about them?

I see what you mean, i suppose they are fairly bland and don't match our other dinnerware. It doesn't bother me even slightly, but I would love to investigate other options with you if you're planning to do so.

Yes, dearest, these new bowls are quite nice. I like how everything matches

OR EVEN

Honestly, peaches, i don't like how thin the new bowls feel, I'm afraid to use them because they feel delicate. I liked how robust the old ones were—i never had to worry. Does this concern you? We can always find other options.

This script feels incredibly stilted, it needs a rewrite with more feeling, needs to sound more like how humans speak not HR "people."

Yes, i wrote it that way. It's not a script to be followed—it's about the idea.

hmm, if i would be saying that, i would be lieing, because i truly thoroughly do not give a crap about superficial stuff like what color the bowls are. and i don't appreciate lieing to my partner, so i'd rather just shrug.
