- I feel like because I've asked for this I am somehow a disappointment to you. I just don't know how to balance this. I want both of you to feel like you are getting your needs met and I want to be happy with both of you, but this seems to be a real conflict of interest. And the worst part is you know what I would do if you asked it of me, but I don't think I could ever forgive you for asking that of me. I know you won't, but I still worry.

- I wish you would've told me that bothered you sooner.

- It's not fair of you to take your bad mood out on us. Stop making assumptions about what I mean when I say something. I have no idea how you got that from me saying what I did, but it's completely inaccurate. So don't snap at me, okay? Truth be told I'm not exactly thrilled about doing you that big favor tomorrow, but I'm doing it because I love you and want to help you. Snapping at me just makes me feel really hurt and unappreciated.
