This tool is not suitable here
This tool is not suitable for situations involving violence or threats. Consider seeking in-person professional support. If you are in immediate danger, contact local emergency services and someone you trust if it is safe to do so.
The site does not analyze text you enter and cannot assess whether a situation is safe.
Uncertainty cannot always be removed before you choose. Separate what is known and unknown, check what information you can get, and consider the cost of an error and whether the decision can be revisited.
You may want closeness and time alone, change and stability, or both to accept and decline an offer. Explore what each option supports without forcing one desire to disappear.
