Relationship Insights

Self-discovery when a partner isn't ready

A partner does not have to be ready for a person to begin learning about themselves. Solo reflection can be a meaningful part of relationship growth.

Reflect, understand, choose one next step

Begin without pressure

Use private reflection to notice needs, boundaries, stress patterns, and communication habits. The goal is not to wait passively for another person or to prepare a case against them; it is to understand your own choices more clearly.

When a partner is not ready

Do not pressure an unwilling partner into an account, shared exercise, or conversation. A partner can join later. Meanwhile, a person can use Personal Insights, diary reflection, and individual lessons where available.

High-conflict situations

If there is coercive control, stalking, active violence, or immediate danger, shared app activity may be unsafe. Prioritise specialist, professional, or emergency support and protect private information.

Private by default

Private reflections are not automatically shared. Sharing should be deliberate and supported by clear controls. A linked partner does not receive unrestricted access to private content.
