Patch things up after an argument with a calm first message
Pasting the text thread shows what the other person probably heard, which is often not what you meant.

Your prompt
Fill in your details. Skip any you like.
ChatGPT and Claude open with your prompt already typed in. Gemini can't be filled in from a link, so its button copies your prompt: paste it into the new chat.
The prompt that gets copied
I had a falling out with my [WHO IT WAS WITH, e.g. neighbor or sister]. Here's what happened and what we said, as fairly as I can tell it: [WHAT HAPPENED OR PASTED TEXTS]. What I want now: [YOUR GOAL, e.g. stay friends and settle the fence issue]. First, explain how this probably looked from their side, without taking my side. Point out anything I said that may have landed badly and the part I could honestly own. Then write 3 short first messages I could send to reopen things: one warm, one direct and one very brief. No groveling, no blame and no rehashing the whole argument. End with one tip for keeping the next conversation calm.
Share what was said, or paste the texts, and get the other person's likely view, the part you can own and a short message that reopens the conversation kindly.
Step by step
- Copy the messages, or write down what each of you said as fairly as you can.
- Paste it into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini with the prompt.
- Read the other side's view before you read the draft messages.
- Edit the message into your own words and wait an hour before sending.
What you'll get
A neutral read of the other side, the part you can own and three short repair messages in different tones.
