Speak as Ryan
Ryan: That might be a good idea. Who do you have in mind?
Amy: I think that Greg would be perfect.
Ryan: I don't want Greg as a business partner.
Amy: Why not? He is smart, hardworking, and creative.
Ryan: The reason that I don't want him as a business partner is that I don't trust him. I've heard a lot of bad stories about him from people.
Amy: Don't believe everything you hear. I am confident that he would help our business.
Ryan: I'm still not sure.
Amy: How about I set up a meeting with him, and you can talk to him yourself?
Ryan: Fine. But if I still don't like him after the meeting, then I don't want you to mention it again.
Amy: Fair enough.
