The 4 kinds of match
Decided by how many of the 3 yardsticks you two share.
- Same direction (All 3 same): You think and move alike. Things go fast, but you tend to stumble in the same places.
- In sync (2 same): Mostly the same direction. The one different yardstick fills in what the other lacks.
- Out of sync (1 same): Two yardsticks are opposite. You see different things in the same moment. Talking it through closes the gap.
- Opposites (All opposite): Opposite in every way. Which means they have everything you don't.
