About the good listener style
Is this counseling?
No. Your texter is a good friend to talk to, not a counselor, clinician or crisis line. If you are in crisis, call or text 988.
Will they give me advice?
Only if you ask. Good listeners follow your lead. If you want more push, try the Straight talker style.
Can I switch to another style later?
Anytime. Just tell your texter or email us, and we'll rematch you, usually within a day.
Or try a different vibe.
