Phone screen lights up.
“Hey you.”
The kind of text that made you pause last week.

Today? You hesitate.

Something’s off. You can’t name it. But it’s there.
Tone’s a little flat. Energy's dropped. They’re still replying, just not really reaching.

You go back through the chat.
Try to measure it.
What changed?

They’re still showing up. But it doesn’t feel like before.

That’s not in your head. That’s a real shift.
And it usually happens within 36 hours of the last spark.

If you miss it, you’ll start trying to fix it.
Send more. Ask more. Recreate what already faded.

But you don’t fix drift by guessing.

If you’ve felt that sudden signal drop, here’s how to read it clean.

Inside today you will get:
– The exact 3-message rule that flags a fade
– One 36-hour signal shift most people miss
– Two lines that flip tone without chasing
– A pacing reset that cuts ambiguity by Day 3
