Vault
Cut-off, no return
Cut · Sealed · Final
You don't do "second chances" — you do "you ceased to exist on Tuesday".
What this archetype looks like
Your dominant pattern is the Vault. When someone seriously crosses you the door closes (usually for good), you can be friendly with people you've cut from real life, you've cut family or long-term friends without regret, and once trust is broken you rarely give it back. The good part is real boundaries with finality. Watch out: occasionally a closed door belonged to someone who would have grown — but you'll never know.
Strengths
- Real boundaries
- Finality without theatre
- Decisive about who gets access
Watch-outs
