The Honest Drifter

Says everything, promises nothing.

You're candid and warm when you're around, and genuinely fine disappearing for a while. You don't manage the friendship — you just show up as yourself and trust it'll hold. Often it does.

Why you got EOCR

Ease over Lead
Who picks the place, who keeps the plan alive, who just goes along with it.
Open over Subtle
Whether care comes out as words, or as lifts to the airport and relentless teasing.
Clear over Patch
What you do when something's wrong — say it this week, or smooth it over and wait.
Roomy over Tight
How much contact you need before it feels like drifting, and how much before it feels like too much.

  • No obligation energy
  • Honest

What trips you up
