yuck!!! i'm sick & I NEED LOVE!!!!!! i guess it's time for some emode... reassuring self-help... make-yourself-feel-all-better tests... I NEED A MAN!!!!

Topic: The Passion Predictor Answer: Belle of the Ball

One of great things about being you is that you have a healthy dose of self-respect. It's not every Tom, Dick, or Harry who gets to land a date with you. Your natural tendency to really check someone out before letting 'em in the door serves you well. You don't get stuck with the bottom-feeders. So what if some people think you're a challenge? That isn't always a bad thing. Being picky just means you don't settle for anything but the best. You want someone who will dote on you and take good care of you, while still keeping you on your toes. Thank goodness you're not one of the many women who underestimate their self-worth (men tend to overestimate). That's why you see so many gorgeous gals going out with meatheads. Is it possible that your romantic standards are just protecting the heart of gold inside? Once you let your guard down, successful suitors find a loving, generous gal who will throw herself into a relationship. Our only advice is that in your quest for love, carry with you the immortal words of Mother Teresa: "If you judge people, you have no time to love them."

Question: What's your relationship color? Answer: purple

This means that you tend to be a cooperative, passionate partner who is able to balance your own firmly held beliefs with strong negotiation skills. You're not one to keep that special someone in the dark about your feelings. In fact, you'll usually do your best to fully communicate any emotion you have. Most times you think that it's better to talk frankly and openly about problems or concerns, even if that talk leads to a heated discussion. It can be very important to you to feel comfortable and listened to when sharing your inner life with the one you love. Ordinarily, you'll return this courtesy by listening deeply to your partner's opinions and emotions, as well. People with compatible relationship colors tend to bring out the best in one another because their approach to relationships is harmonious. But if you're with someone whose relationship color clashes with yours, you're headed for more challenges than most.

Question: What's your goddess identity? Answer: Siren

Like the beautiful sea mermaids who've swum before you, Siren, you certainly have a way of drawing people in. Whether wooing a crush with your alluring voice or impressing someone with your unique take on the world, you're sure to captivate more than your share of audiences. It must be the balance between your glittering personality and your individual style that keeps friends and family enamored by your presence. From being able to predict next season's "it" color to pairing leopard print with plaid before it hits the pages of Vogue, people see you as a fashion goddess. You may not want to admit it, but you're part trendsetter and people look to you for direction. Of course, you know there's more to life than shopping for the latest adorable accessory. You pursue success in all aspects of life — from offering creative insights at work to running marathons. You have big dreams, Siren, and by keeping them in sharp focus, you're sure to come out a winner.

Question: What's your romantic fantasy? Answer: Romantic Rescue

Tied up on the railroad tracks, surrounded by a pack of wolves in the desert, stranded on a desert island, hasn't your hero shown up to save you yet? If these are the kinds of daydreams that make you miss your stop on the bus, or walk by your house on the way home, your romantic fantasy is the good ol' Romantic Rescue. From Indiana Jones to the neighborhood fireman, to the doctor who can nurse you back from any malady, there's just something about a hero in uniform that keeps your fantasies alive. Yes it's the stuff of dreams, and you know better than to hold out for a real-life Robin Hood to rescue you from of the daily grind. You're not too lost in love to realize that fantasy is only part of your reality. So even if your sweetie doesn't come pre-packaged in the preferred uniform of choice, rest assured that you'll always have your dreams. And the chance that you might be able to get him to dress up that way for Halloween.

hey guys... is this me... we're studying personality in AP Psychology... this would be the infamous enneagram test! again... do you think this is me?


take free enneagram test


Point Three, the Performer, is the child who lost hope that the Universe will provide and discovered that love, recognition, value and acceptance came to those who could achieve, who could "do" and who could accomplish. Performance, however, also must be matched with an image of success. The Three is the core point of the "heart, or feeling, traid";. The passion is deceit and the corresponding fixation is vanity. Key issues for the Three include, but are not limited to the following:

Deceit: The deceit is of one's self through the unconscious adptation to, and an identification with, a role that is deemed by the Three to be the epitome of success in a given situation.

Image: Looking good is important. Image fits the context of a situation. The Three alters to fit the situation and may appear slippery and deceptive through image.

Approval: The Three primarily wants others to respect the Three's ability to get things done. But the three also is keenly aware of the approving or disapproving demeanor of the other in almost any situation.

Doing: The Three looks for what to do. Attention goes to doing for approval from others. The Three is doing rather than being, and doing to fill time. The Three can accomplish a lot in a short time and often expects non-stop performance for self

Tasks: The focus is on tasks, getting things done, accomplishment. The Three takes charge to move things along. This orientation to tasks and getting things done also applies to leisure time, and the Three learns to control through tasks.

Success: One must succeed, almost at all costs. There is no reward for not winning. Goals, and the accomplishment thereof, is what is important. Achievements and the resulting earned rewards including both material and status is what is valued.

Efficient: Cuts corners to accomplish goals, without sacrificing doing a task well. The three becomes hostile and displays anger at inefficiency or obstacles to tasks. The anger comes up with the task or goal when there is interferernce with the goal.

Competitive: Emphasis can be upon competing and winning. "No one remembers who comes in second." The competitive posture induces pressure and impatience.

Feelings: There is inattention to feelings. The Three often is too busy to deal with feelings and sets feelings aside. Feelings "aren't there"; can be set aside. Sticking with feelings is hard work.

Marketing Orientation: There often is a marketing orientation in the languaging of the three that can be recognized through references to self, to accomplishments, to success, to performance to image to name dropping.
