Where you click

Where you rub
You show love in different languages. Infernos love through deep talks and quality time, then take space to recharge when drained, while Whirlwinds love through acts of service and gifts, and set aside both quality time and solo recharge. Name it early and the warmth and the level head start to balance out.
In conflict
Infernos say exactly how they feel and will argue their point until it is truly resolved. Whirlwinds act fast to fix a problem, often on their own, and open up best with a set time to talk. One of you wants to solve it now while the other needs time first, so agree on a short pause, then talk.
Making it work

- Learn each other's love language: say the warm thing out loud for one of you, and follow through on the practical thing for the other.
