Text thread, Sunday morning
The Forgotten Birthday
Text thread
Last night was Bex's birthday dinner. You said yes weeks ago, then worked late, sat down on the sofa "for five minutes" and woke up at midnight to four missed calls. It's Sunday morning, the thread has gone quiet, and you know you need to say something.
What you practice
Reading the room, playful humor, real curiosity and a clear, confident ask. It plays out as a text thread: timing, tone and the move to a real plan.
