Request relationship type
The request relationship is a relationship type that you can have with one or more people that focuses on requests. People who like structured communication are likely to enjoy this relationship type for its clear and direct communication. If you don't enjoy it, it likely means you don't like structured communication.
A request looks similar to how robots in tv shows and movies make requests to each other. A request is typically made by an individual in the request relationship type when they have a desire to (request type 1 and group request type 1) do something with an individual or (request type 2 and group request type 2) for an individual to do something without them in their relationship. Request type 1, group request type 1, request type 2, and group request type 2 may all be counted as "requests" or only some of them.
A request may not count as a "request" if some of that request's participants (both the person who made the request and the requestee(s)) didn't understand at the time that they were participating in a "request". A request needs to be clearly stated as a "request" for it to count.
In a two-person request relationship type, the two individuals often make direct requests to each other. A request can't be declined by one of the individuals unless the request is too uncomfortable or not possible for them to do (too many absurd direct requests = end the relationship). If a direct request is declined by the requestee, the one who made that request is allowed to make another request for the requestee to complete. If the two individuals want the relationship to stay fair and equal, both need to make sure that each of them has an equal number of direct requests completed. An unequal number of direct requests can occur if one wants to support the other's wants more than their wants or has less wants.
In a group (three or more people) request relationship type, the group members often make open and direct requests to each other. Open requests don't target any specific members and any members in the group except the requester can choose to be the requestee of that request. If an open request is declined, the one who made that request is allowed to make another request that could be be a direct request or another open request (too many absurd direct or open requests = kick the group member out). If the group members want the relationship to stay fair and equal, all of them need to make sure that each of them have an equal number of requests (direct or open) completed. An unequal number of requests (direct or open) can occur if someone's wants are supported more than the others' wants or has more wants.
Optional: The requestee(s) of a request can be required to make a direct or an open request that they will reveal after completing the current request they're trying to complete. The request that the requestee reveals will not require its requestee(s) to make a direct or an open request. This requirement forces all request participants to make an equal number of requests in a two-person request relationship type and a closer to equal number of requests in a group request relationship type.
