QUIET
Quiet signal
“Since the baby, I don't exist to them” appears, but it rarely gets the final say. Keep this line available for higher-pressure moments: “Their hours changed. My place did not.”
SCRIPT CHECK · 60 SECONDS
Five quick questions show how often it appears, how believable it feels, and what it makes you avoid. You’ll get one private next step.
This is not a diagnosis and there is no pass or fail. It measures the current frequency, credibility, and behavioral cost of “Since the baby, I don't exist to them”, including the private rule underneath it: If their time is tighter, it means I no longer matter. I have to treat reduced access as evidence that I’ve been pushed out, and I should protect myself by wanting less first.

ACTIVE
“Since the baby, I don't exist to them” is shaping action often enough to deserve a deliberate counterexample. Start privately and concretely: Open your recent messages or call log and mark three contacts from this person with a neutral label like 'short reply,' 'missed window,' or 'follow-up later.' Do not interpret them; just sort them by shape.

Begin with one reversible receipt: Open your recent messages or call log and mark three contacts from this person with a neutral label like 'short reply,' 'missed window,' or 'follow-up later.' Do not interpret them; just sort them by shape.
