Now add up the total number of points.
OVER 60 POINTS: Others see you as someone they should
"handle with care." You're seen as vain,
self-centered, and 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 & 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
and 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.
