The Provider

Always there, never says it, never fights about it.

You show up constantly and you take care of things, but you won't put feelings into words and you won't start a confrontation. Your loyalty is enormous and almost entirely unspoken, which means it can be taken for granted for years.

Why you got LSPT

Lead over Ease: Who picks the place, who keeps the plan alive, who just goes along with it.
Subtle over Open: Whether care comes out as words, or as lifts to the airport and relentless teasing.
Patch over Clear: 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.
