The Open Book

You have no filter and no secrets, and you're always here.

You'll follow wherever the plan goes, but you'll tell your bestie every single thing that happens along the way — including the part where they annoyed you on Tuesday. There is no version of you that plays it cool.

Why you got EOCT

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.
Tight over Roomy: How much contact you need before it feels like drifting, and how much before it feels like too much.
