What you each care about
Emotion meets Emotion. Love deeply, but keep your individual identities — the risk in a double-Hearts bond is merging so completely that neither person knows where they end and the other begins. Practice emotional differentiation.
How you each operate
Execution meets Leadership: crown meets engine. Agree on who sets direction and who sets pace — then get out of each other's way.
