The Avoider
Later, always later.
What it is
The Avoider's default is deferral. The email, the bill, the conversation, the diagnosis — anything with teeth gets rescheduled by silence. He is not at peace; he is renting relief at the highest interest rate there is.
Under pressure
Pressure makes the Avoider quieter, not louder. He goes unreachable, lets things escalate, and lets other people absorb the impact. The avoided thing does not shrink in the dark. It compounds.
The tell: a private list of unopened things — messages, envelopes, topics — that he can recite from memory while claiming to have forgotten them.
See it in a day
The lab's case files reconstruct a single day inside each pattern — hour by hour, in its own words. Yours opens at the end of a conversation.
Live from the Index. The counters start at zero and grow with every closed conversation.
Talk about it
Every conversation scores all eight patterns. The Mirror finds the master pattern; the themed conversations find it room by room.
