INTERPRETATION
--------------
Over 60 points: Others see you as someone they should "handle with care".
You are seen as vain, seft-centred, and extremely dominant. Others may
admire you and wish they could be more like you, but they don't always
trust you and hesitate to become too deeply involved with you.
From 51 to 60 points: Your friends see you as an exciting, highly volatile,
rather impulsive personality; a natural leader, quick to make decisions
(though not always the right ones). They see you as bold and venturesome,
someone who will try anything - well almost anything - once; some who takes
a chance and enjoys an adventure. They enjoy being in your company because
of the excitement you radiate.
From 41 to 50 points: Others see you as fresh, lively, charming, amusing,
and always interesting; someone who is constantly the centre of attention,
but sufficiently well-balanced not to let it go to your head. They see you
also as kind, considerate, and understanding; someone who will cheer them
up or help them out.
From 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 too easily, but someone who is
extremely loyal to the friends you do makes and expects the same loyalty
in return. Those who really get to know you realize that 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 taken.
From 21 to 30 points: Your friends see you as painstaking, perhaps a little
too fussy at times. They see you as very, very cautious and 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. They expect
you to examine everything very carefully from every side and then, usually,
decide against it. They think this reaction on your part is caused partly
by your careful nature and partly by laziness.
Under 21 points: People think you are shy, nervous, and indecisive,
someone who needs to be looked after, who always wants someone else
to make the decisions and who does not want to get involved with anyone
or anything. They see you as a worrier, who sees problems that don't
exist. Some people think that you boring. Only the people that know
you well know that you aren't. The trouble is that you don't let many
people get close to you.
