Grounded in trust and responsibility, you build a solid relationship step by step. You keep in frequent touch, put your feelings into words, and talk through hurt right away.
Strengths

- You put your thoughts into clear words, guiding conversations so misunderstandings don't pile up.
- You stay in touch and together often, and bring up hurt feelings right away to clear them.
Watch out for
- While caring for your partner, you can easily put your own feelings and needs last.
- Even when you're right, it can sound like a lecture or a judgment to your partner.
- When your partner needs time alone to think, it can feel to them like you're pushing.
Dating tips
- Try saying "I'd like this" a little more often than "It's fine."
- When you share an opinion, add one sentence about how you feel.
- If your partner wants time after an argument, just agree on when you'll talk, then wait.
