Now add up the total number of points. If your score is:
OVER 60 POINTS:
Others see you as someone they should "
handle with care."
You're seen as
vain,
self-centered, and who is extremely dominant. Others may
admire you,
wishing
they could be more like you, but don't always
trust you, hesitating
to become
too deeply involved with you.
51 TO 60 POINTS:
Others see you as an exciting, highly
volatile, rather
impulsive personality;
a
natural leader, who's quick to make
decisions, though not always
the right ones.
They see you as
bold and
adventuresome, someone who will try anything
once;
someone who takes
chances and enjoys an
adventure. They enjoy being
in your
company because of the
excitement you
radiate.
41 TO 50 POINTS:
Others see you as
fresh,
lively,
charming,
amusing,
practical, and
always
interesting; someone who's
constantly in the
center of attention, but sufficiently
well-balanced
not to let
it go to their head. They
also see you as kind, considerate, and understanding; someone who'll
always
cheer them up and help them out.
31 TO 40 POINTS:
Others see you as
sensible,
cautious,
careful and
practical. They
see you as
clever,
gifted, or
talented, but
modest. Not a person who makes friends too quickly
or easily, but
someone who's extremely
loyal to friends you do make and who expect
the same
loyalty in return. Those who really get to know you realize it takes
a lot to
shake your
trust in your friends, but equally that it takes you a
long time to
get over it if that trust is ever broken.
21 TO 30 POINTS:
Your friends see you as
painstaking and
fussy. They see you as very
cautious,
extremely
careful, a slow and steady
plodder. It'd really surprise
them if you
ever did something
impulsively or on the spur of the moment, expecting
you to
examine everything carefully from every angle and then, usually
decide
against
it. They think this reaction is caused partly by your careful nature.
UNDER 21 POINTS:
People think you are
shy,
nervous, and
indecisive, someone who needs
looking
after, who always wants someone else to make the decisions &
who doesn't want to
get
involved with anyone or anything. They see you as a worrier who
always
sees
problems that don't exist. Some people think you're
boring.
Only those who
know you well know that you aren't.
