A new kind of self-disclosure

The manual
you wish you
came with.

Every device has documentation. Every relationship fumbles along without any. My User's Manual changes that — a beautifully formatted guide to who you are, how you work, and what people need to know to really know you.

From a real manual · Molly Reynolds
§ 09 Troubleshooting Guide
If I've gone quiet and seem distant
"Something is wrong. Ask once, directly: 'Are you okay?' If I say yes, I mean it. If I hesitate, I don't."
§ 07 Known Bugs & Limitations
Something hard to hear that was probably true
"You make it hard for people to help you." Still thinking about it.
§ 08 Maintenance & Care
What makes me feel unseen
"Being treated like I'm too much. I know I'm a lot. I need it to be a feature, not a problem."

Who is it for?

Anyone who has ever wished the people in their life came with better instructions — or who knows they themselves could use some.

For a new romantic partner
Instead of six months of guesswork
Hand them Section 8 on the third date. Watch the conversation that follows.
For a long-term partner
Some things only get said when there's a form to fill out
The things in Sections 6 and 7 that you've never quite gotten around to saying out loud.
As a gift
For someone you want to know better
Give them the form. Receive the manual. The most intimate gift that costs $7.
Absolute privacy · by design, not by promise
