Not feeling particularly inspired, so I am going to resort to a “here are some quizzes” blog format.
Here are some quizzes, to eat some time off your clock. Click on the graphics to take the quiz:
Personality: How Others See you
You scored a total of 35The Loyal Friend
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 expects 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.
Romantic Attachment Style Quiz
Your romantic attachment style: Secure and Happy
At this stage of your development in romantic relationships, you tend to be pretty evenly balanced in your attachment style. You are not significantly more anxious about them, nor significantly avoiding intimacy or emotional closeness in relationships.
This is a healthy balance, but it also may mean that it is more difficult for you to find someone else who has achieved this same healthy balance! Most people tend to either have greater anxiety or greater avoidance in relationships. You’d probably be most comfortable and at ease in a relationship where your partner is also fairly balanced in their romantic attachment approach.

Sounds great to me!
layal and balanced. that could be a good combination!
What I always like to know is how accurately do you think the test captured you?
Fun stuff. I got a 44 on the first quiz, which means I may be the Lively Center of Attention. Not me at all! Couldn’t really answer the questions on the romance quiz though.
I’m the Loyal Friend too with a 39.
I got “Cool and Dismissive” and “Secure and Happy”. I only had to change ONE answer to get a different reading. Meh.
saved to my favorites, as it is now ten to four in the morning and I really should go to sleep
I took the first test tonight. I first got a 46, then switched a couple of answers and got a 44, then switched a couple more….because they all applied that I was switching around….and got a 38. So, I think I’m a loyal friend who likes to be the center of attention. Ha…that about says it all!
My first result:
You scored a total of 46

The Lively Center of Attention
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.
I got the same scores as you for both…how weird is that..except I don’t know your numbers on relationship avoidance and anxiety, which don’t seem to mean diddly squat anyway! Secure and happy, yes, she nods…
Hope you are well, Peter??
Great. Like I have time for a test? TWO?
I think you know my scores anyway. But yeah, I took ‘em.
For some reason I didn’t get a notice of this post, oh well. Put on your favorite music and get a pen and paper and just start writing. It doesn’t have to make any sense, and before you know it, you’ve written a poem, you’d be surprised what you discover. When you do that, post it here, I’d be happy to read it.
That romantic style quiz is hard for me to take because I have been in a few serious relationships and they were very different from one another.
Are you looking for someone else that can score like this for a relationship? Judi
I haven’t done one of those in ages…I scored 37, same as you.
I agree with you completely. I’m a bit of a minimalist by nature so not having any living room furniture is not that much of a stretch for me. One of my favorite thigns to do do every six months or so is to go through and give away/throw away all the stuff that I have collected that I don’t use. It is a freeing experience. Feng shui says it’s the freeing the movement of ch’i, but i think it’s freeing ourselves from that grasp of materialism and the understanding that we really don’t need all that stuff ‘they’ say we need.
