Iโ€™m building a small tool to help people understand relationship misunderstandings

Hi DEV ๐Ÿ‘‹

Iโ€™m currently building a small side project called DecodeYou.

The idea came from personal experience.
Iโ€™ve been in a long-distance relationship, and even when both people care a lot,
misunderstandings still happen โ€” not because of bad intentions,
but because we interpret situations differently.

For example:
the same action can feel โ€œreasonableโ€ to one person,
and deeply hurtful to the other.

Instead of giving advice or labeling people,
DecodeYou focuses on helping users:

  • reflect before reacting
  • notice emotional and communication patterns
  • separate what actually happened from what we assumed it meant

Right now the project is very early.
Iโ€™ve open-sourced the repo to document the ideas and structure as I build.

๐Ÿ‘‰ GitHub repo: https://github.com/cherryyan1987/cherryyan1987

Iโ€™d really appreciate any feedback, thoughts, or even skepticism.
Happy to learn from this community.
