10. (a) 4 (b) 2 (c) 3 (d) 5 (e) 6 (f) 1


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 one 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 & 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 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 would 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.

It's pretty accurate. You don't want me to be your enemy--I have a tendency to brood for a very long time about it, and some people just never get forgiven--ever.

I won't say I'm overly cautious--life is to live, not to stagnate or die of boredom as some people think. On the other hand, as I've gotten older and the body parts just aren't working as well as they should be, I have reduced the amount of thrillseeking I want to do on a regular basis. :)
