She explains why an HSP partner needs real decompression time rather than a push to toughen up, and how the same depth of processing that overwhelms them is exactly what lets them read and understand you so well. It closes on the payoff, which is the loyalty and passionate commitment highly sensitive people bring to their closest relationships.
