I took the Color Quiz as suggested by Aiobheil and this is what it said:

Your Existing Situation
Sensitive and understanding but under some strain; needs to unwind in the company of someone close to him.


Your Stress Sources
Eager to make a good impression, but worried and doubtful about the likelihood of succeeding. Feels that she has a right to anything she might hope for, and becomes helpless and distressed when circumstances go against her. Finds the mere possibility of failure most upsetting and this can even lead to nervous prostration. Sees herself as a 'victim' who has been misled and abused, mistakes this dramatization for reality and tries to convince herself that her failure to achieve standing and recognition is the fault of others.


Your Restrained Characteristics
Very exacting in the standards she applies to her choice of a partner and seeking a rather unrealistic perfection in her sex life.
Circumstances are forcing her to compromise, to restrain her demands and hopes, and to forgo for the time being some of the things she wants.




Your Desired Objective
Needs to feel identified with someone or something and wishes to win support by her charm and amiability. Sentimental and yearns for a romantic tenderness.


Your Actual Problem
Depleted vitality has created an intolerance for any further stimulation, or demands on her resources. This feeling of powerlessness subjects her to agitation and acute distress. She attempts to escape into a substitute world in which things are more nearly as she desires them to be.


Your Actual Problem #2
Disappointment and the fear that there is no point in formulating fresh goals have led to anxiety, and she is distressed by the lack of any close and understanding relationship. She attempts to escape into a substitute world in which things are more nearly as she desires them to be.

Don't know about the accuracy but it was still fun.

Take the Quiz!

Your Existing Situation

Trying to improve his position and prestige. Dissatisfied with his existing circumstances and considers some improvement essential to his self-esteem.

Your Stress Sources

Feels that life has far more to offer and that there are still important things to be achieved--that life must be experienced to the fullest. As a result, he pursues his objectives with a fierce intensity that will not let go of things. Becomes deeply involved and runs the risk of being unable to view things with sufficient objectivity, or calmly enough; is therefore in danger of becoming agitated and of exhausting his nervous energy. Cannot leave things alone and feels he can only be at peace when he has finally reached his goal.

Your Restrained Characteristics

Feels cut off and unhappy because of the difficulty in achieving the essential degree of cooperation and harmony which he desires.
Egocentric and therefore quick to take offense. Sensitive and sentimental, but conceals this from all except those very close to him.

Able to achieve satisfaction through sexual activity.

Your Desired Objective

Considers the existing circumstances disagreeable and over-demanding. Refuses to allow anything to influence his point of view.

Your Actual Problem

The fear that he might be prevented from achieving the things he wants drives him to the exploitation of all types of experience, so that he may categorically deny that any of them has any value. This destructive denigration becomes his method of concealing hopelessness and a profound sense of futility.

I took the quiz, but won't post the results as they didn't have any relation to me and how I think/feel about things. Sometimes these things are just way off base.

That's why I think they're fun to take - to see the Barnum Effect in action.

I don't usually play the sucker every minute. I skip a couple every now and then! :)

And I like the new pic!

I hate gender separated quizes so I clicked wrong gender on the drop down menu, hence the "he".


Your Existing Situation:

Impulsive and irritable. His desires, and the actions involved, are paramount, with insufficient consideration being given to their consequences. This leads to, or arises from, stress and conflict.

Does it lead to or does it arise from stress or conflict? Or both?


Your Stress Sources:

Feels he must have cooperation before the existing situation can be improved. Lack of understanding and appreciation makes him feel no real bond exists, and discontent gives rise to a touchy sensitivity; he wants to feel safer and more at ease. He would like to get away from what he now considers a depressing tie and re-establish his own individuality. His sensual self-restraint makes it difficult for him to give himself, but the resulting isolation leads to the urge to surrender and merge with another. This disturbs him as he regards such instincts as weaknesses to be overcome--he feels that he can only assert his own individuality by continued self-restraint, that this alone will allow him to stand his ground through his present difficulties.


Your Restrained Characteristics:

Feels he is receiving less than his share, but that he will have to conform and make the best of his situation.
Feels that he is burdened with more than his fair share of problems. However, he sticks to his goals and tries to overcome his difficulties by being flexible and accommodating.

Actually he doesn't, he knows that he is getting less than his fair share of problems and that suffering is minimal.


Your Desired Objective:

Has an imperative need for some bond or fusion with another which will prove sensually fulfilling, but which will not conflict with his convictions or sense of fitness.


Your Actual Problem:

Greatly impressed by the unique, by originality, and by individuals of outstanding characteristics. Tries to emulate the characteristics he admires and to display originality in his own personality.


Your Actual Problem #2:

Anxiety and a restless dissatisfaction, either with circumstances or with unfulfilled emotional requirements, have produced considerable stress. He tries to escape into an idealized atmosphere of sympathy and understanding, or into a substitute environment of estheticism and beauty.

He'll give the quiz that, a substitute environment of estheticism and beauty is something he spends much time to create.
