💌 Diálogo: Consejos de Amor en una Tarde de Café ☕❤️

Sara: Uff… necesito tu ayuda, Luis. Estoy hecha un lío.

Luis: Claro, amiga. ¿Qué pasó? ¿Problemas del corazón?

Sara: Sí… no sé qué hacer con Diego. Últimamente lo siento distante.

Luis: ¿Han hablado sobre eso? A veces es cuestión de comunicación.

Sara: Intenté hablar, pero siempre dice que está cansado o que todo está bien.

Luis: Hmm… puede que esté estresado, pero también es importante que te sientas escuchada.

Sara: Exacto. Yo lo apoyo en todo, pero siento que no recibo lo mismo.

Luis: ¿Has pensado en hacer algo diferente? Tal vez planear una salida especial para reconectar.

Sara: Buena idea. Podría organizar una cena sorpresa. ¿Crees que funcione?

Luis: Claro, siempre es bueno romper la rutina. Pero también debes decirle cómo te sientes.

Sara: Eso me cuesta. No quiero que piense que me quejo todo el tiempo.

Luis: No es quejas, es expresar tus sentimientos. Si te quiere, lo entenderá.

Sara: Tienes razón. A veces me guardo las cosas y luego exploto.

Luis: Es normal. Pero el amor se construye con honestidad, no con silencios.

Sara: ¿Y si no le importa lo que digo?

Luis: Entonces tendrás tu respuesta. Pero primero, dale la oportunidad de demostrarte lo contrario.

Sara: Gracias, Luis. Eres muy sabio en temas de amor.

Luis: Ja, ja, no sé si sabio… solo he aprendido a base de errores.

Sara: Bueno, tus consejos me sirven mucho. ¡Te contaré cómo va la cena sorpresa!

Luis: ¡Claro! Y si necesitas un chef de emergencia, llámame.
