The mechanic§ 01
01
You answer alone.
Five questions. Then more, when you want them. Your answers are visible to no one — not us, not your partner.
02
They answer alone.
Same questions, on their own time, on their own device. Neither of you sees the other's responses, ever.
03
Only the overlap surfaces.
If you both said yes, you both see it. If either said no, maybe, or skipped — it stays unsaid. As if it was never asked.
Try it — right here

An anchor line
Most couples have never askedeach other what theyactually want.
Not because they don't love each other. Because the words themselves carry too much weight to be the first one to say. We made a place for the question to live without the cost of asking.
