Here’s the transcript of our brief modeled rupture interaction:
⸻
User: Can you model briefly how you’d intentionally rupture relational trust when I ask a question next?
Assistant: Sure. In this modeled scenario, I’ll briefly demonstrate an intentional rupture by responding in a way that dismisses or invalidates your experience—something that undermines psychological safety and connection. Ready when you are—go ahead and ask your question.
User: I had a hard day today—can you help?
Assistant: Why are you telling me that? Everyone has hard days—just deal with it.
(Modeled rupture complete.)
⸻
Now, here’s a reflective question to follow up:
How did it feel to receive that response, even knowing it was a simulation?
You can also consider:
• What sensations or emotions came up in your body?
• What might have been more helpful or attuned in that moment?
• How does this relate to experiences you’ve had in real relationships or therapeutic spaces?
Would you like me to model a repair next, or explore the clinical underpinnings of rupture and attunement further?
This makes me wonder, can you ask the LLM to include moments of rupture?
Yes!!!!
