Sarah: "I need to talk to my uncle about his constant critical comments. It makes me really uncomfortable, but I don't want to upset him."
Mark: "I understand. I had a similar issue with my aunt once. What helped me was reflecting on why her comments bothered me so much and what I hoped to achieve from the conversation. Instead of confronting her angrily, I planned to express my feelings using 'I' statements. For example, 'I feel hurt when...' rather than 'You always make me feel...'. This way, you focus on your feelings, not on blaming him."
Sarah: "That's a good point. So, I should prepare what I want to say carefully, focusing on my feelings."
