Gemini

The sharpest boundaries are drawn around what people's persistence reveals they actually want, regardless of what they claim to want. When someone keeps pushing against the same edge of your attention, your time, or your patience, they are telling you something more honest than their words ever could. You can hear it in the specific ways they circle back to the same request, the particular timing of their asks, the small adjustments they make when you resist. What gets tested repeatedly is what they believe they can eventually wear down. Your job is to decide whether they are right.
