Adding to the challenge, we are in a long-distance relationship, which can make it difficult to maintain a strong emotional connection without physical proximity or frequent communication.

She walks through life with a heavy heart,

Always feeling like she’s playing a part,

In a never-ending drama of love and pain,

Where every relationship ends the same. She tells herself she’s just unlucky in love,

But deep down she knows it’s something above,

The fear of being honest and true,

The fear of opening up and being vulnerable too. She’s scared of what the truth might reveal,

That maybe love is not what she truly feels,

That she’s been using it as a shield,

Unveiling the Limitations of Chat GPT: The Disadvantages of AI in Writing and the Perpetuation of Bias

I can attest to its limitations as someone who has used Chat GPT for almost a month. While the technology is undoubtedly impressive, it can only partially replace human writing. The disadvantages of Chat GPT become more apparent the more you use it.

Happy Birthday, Babe!

My dearest (does that sound too corny?)

I wanted to write you a love letter, but it's going to sound more like a thank you note. It could be both. Thank you for always being a good listener whenever I return from work.

I want to thank you for all the hugs and kisses you have offered me to squeeze the sadness out and the pep talks you gave me when I doubted myself. Most of all, thank you for existing.
