Before the course is built

Setup asks about your situation first.

Lesson 1 opens on the moment you describe, and the examples use your role. For this request, expect questions like these.

  1. Is this about a current relationship, a past one that still bothers you, or a pattern?
  2. Does it show up as checking, questioning, withdrawing, or silent misery?
  3. Is there a real cause, an imagined one, or something in between?

Right for now

If any of this sounds familiar, start here.

You check, and hate that you check

Phones, stories and old photos.

The past haunts the present

Their history before you feels like a threat.

It is costing you the relationship

Your partner is exhausted by reassurance.
