Yeah I feel like the problem a lot of the time, for people like us, is that we think we have to have a full conversation which creates friction. This app helped me to realise all it takes is something small even a gif lol

Yeah never thought of that! Kinly could be for the reminders and intervals part, I’ll have to try it out, thanks

Yeah that’s great and I used to do similar as they’d often reach out to me during that time as well. I also think its useful for people to find tools that help them all year round if they wanted to reach out more than just once a year

I’m still trying to work on this as well. I’ve found small messages is all it takes, but in my head I used to always feel like I had to do a long catch-up which just put me off. I know a lot of people like us struggle with this so thought I’d share whats worked for me

It’s called Kinly Connect. It’s just a little reminder app for relationships. I add a few contacts and it tells me when I haven’t talked to them in a while, and allows me to add notes/reminders to them. Helps with the out of sight out of mind thing without overwhelming me.
