How The List works

1

Add someone you are getting to know

The List does not find people or suggest matches. You privately add people you meet.

2

Check in after you spend time together

For a quick minute, record how you felt, whether their actions matched their words, and any green flags, red flags, or notes you want to remember.

3

See the whole connection clearly

Review their dates, your observations, values & fit, communication, actions versus words, and the patterns that emerge when there is enough information.

DATE TABS

Every date adds to the picture.

Keep each date separate so you can notice what changes and what stays consistent. Add as many as the connection holds.

1st. Expectations, red and green flags, summary, first-date warmth.

2nd. Consistency tracker, tone shifts, follow-through.

3rd. Intentions, honesty checkpoints, compatibility score.

+ Every date after that, kept the same way.

YOUR LIST

Everyone you are getting to know, in one place.

A private page for each person: what they do, what you like, what you are watching for, and how at ease you felt. Mark them Active, Paused, Stepped Back or Ended and they file themselves away.

Widen the list and it becomes a comparison table, so you can see everyone's dates, red flags, green flags, and peace level side by side.

ACTIONS VS WORDS

Not what they said. What they showed.

Put promises beside what actually happened, with a running score at the bottom.

Alongside it, an Intuition Pulse where you log how each interaction left you, so you can see whether your sense of things moved with their follow-through.

WHAT IS INSIDE

A set of quiet tools that add up to clarity.

No swiping, no matching, no algorithm. A place to write things down, laid out so the truth is easier to see.

WHY IT ENDED

When it ends, you still have the record.

Mark someone Ended and a button appears on their page, opening everything difficult you logged while it was happening.

After some time passes, it can be easy to remember the good parts and question why you ended it.

You wrote this yourself, before you had any reason to soften it.

PROMISES THAT WENT UNKEPT

"I'll make more time for us."

Nothing changed a month later

You logged three red flags and one broken promise while the connection was happening.

PATTERNS

What your own data says, once there is enough of it.

The Patterns page compares what you have logged across your List and surfaces what keeps repeating.

Every insight links to the people behind it, and each reframe cites its source. You can add your own.

Your standards are working

The people still active on your List average 5 green flags; the ones you ended or paused average 1.

A repeating red flag: cancelled plans

This appears across 2 different people.

Michael T. › James M. ›

Consistency, not intensity

Intensity can be immediate. Consistency reveals itself over time. Repeated changes in contact or follow-through may be worth looking at more closely.

ARTICLES & QUIZZES

Healthy perspectives, and where they come from.

Five ten-question quizzes drawn from established frameworks, each naming the work it comes from.

Alongside them, eight pieces of reading from organisations that do this work for a living.

And when you need more than an app, eight free confidential helplines and therapy directories, because a notebook is not a person.

02 Available

Are they emotionally available?

Consistency, repair after conflict, and whether the future gets talked about in dates or in somedays.

5 min · 10 questions · adult attachment research

04 A few habits

What I bring to this

Whether you test people instead of asking them, and whether someone steady starts to feel boring.
