0 · Comfortable with quietValues check-ins · 100

Low scores (under 40): Comfortable with quiet

You generally trust that things are fine without being told. That keeps you calm during quiet stretches, though others may not always know when you would appreciate a word of comfort.

Balanced scores (40 to 60)

You like an occasional check-in but can cope with silence. A little warmth goes a long way, and you can usually tell when a gap in contact means nothing.

High scores (over 60): Values check-ins

Regular signs of care matter to you, and a long silence can leave you unsure where you stand. Saying what kind of contact helps, such as a quick message or a weekly call, lets others meet you there.
