Summary

Nine Months on Contract, Forever in Practice examines what really happens when we try to treat intimacy like a neat, temporary deal. Inspired by stories where pregnancy, fake relationships, or “no-strings” setups are defined by contracts, this book looks past the paperwork to the emotional habits rehearsed underneath. It argues that while a document may expire after nine months, the roles we play inside it—caretaker, stoic, “no feelings” partner, endlessly reliable one—often linger for years. 
 Blending narrative reflection with clear-eyed analysis, the book explores how we use agreements to feel safe (“no expectations,” “no attachment”) and how our bodies, memories, and hearts quietly ignore those clauses. It unpacks the unspoken contracts in friendships, families, and workplaces too, showing how we sign up to be “the strong one,” “the flexible one,” or “the easy one” without ever reading the fine print. 
Nine Months on Contract, Forever in Practice offers tools to renegotiate those roles: questions to ask before you say yes, scripts for revisiting terms when the cost gets too high, and ways to carry forward only the parts of your past agreements that you’re proud to keep practicing. It’s a book about moving from transaction to truth—and learning to live as if every contract will leave an imprint on who you become.
