Progressive disclosure beats premature intimacy

Premature intimacy - long message threads before either person knows what they want - creates attachment without alignment. Progressive disclosure means you trade depth in steps: each layer lands while you still remember why you are here.

Guided threads sequence prompts so answers attach to the same moment for both people. Voice lands inside that arc instead of floating above it. Recap and contract exist so enthusiasm does not outrun clarity about whether you both want the same next move.
