This part was hysterical;
"You want to be above the standard of mediocrity... and this need to be needed and that need to need has almost become an obsession. You are trying to magnify the need into a compelling urge. You would really like to tell the world how great you are.. but no.. you are holding back because you feel that your peers may treat you with contempt. This is a great pity because you have in fact a unique quality of character but the continual restraint that you impose on yourself make you suppress this need for others and you pretend you don't really care. "

Come on, Myst, we all know that's you!
Mine said something like I"m extremely depressed and unhappy becuase I"m lonely and have no one to share my insights with...or soemthing...
I dont think I"ve ever been in a happier place in my life. Well, minus the headaches and the barfing, I coudl do without that....

January 30th, 2002, 11:02 AM
Yes I actually think I'm better then you, I just hold myself back so you won't hate me. :rolleyes:
There was a bit about needing "love and affection", whereas right now I've never been more comfortable and happy with the love my mate gives me as well as with my relationships with family and several friends. Then it said I'm a leader but there's a problem I'm really stressed about, and I need to compromise...?

January 30th, 2002, 11:07 AM
Yup but it was with something I'm a "leader" of, not relationships, but something I lead. It didn't make sense anyway.
I dunno why yours fit.
You should get MSN, YahooIM, or ICQ tho. Probably ICQ. ;)

That's....hogwash. I"m a happy go lucky Sagittarius . Things really *don't* get to me...at least not for more than an hour, and then I"m over it. I"m not a very likely ulcer candidate, nope.

It got pretty close on me, not quite on the money, but dang near!
Also, since color and emotions go together, it would change every time you took it.
heres mine...
You have always longed for tenderness, love and a sensitivity of feeling into which you would like to blend. You are a very gentle warm person and responsive to "All things bright and beautiful". This personifies a caring person... A person who "needs" and indeed "needs to be needed".
You are a true extrovert, frivolous and outgoing. You need to feel in control of any situation. If matters are not proceeding according to plan you tend to get extremely irritable and perhaps become difficult to live with.
All the problems that you have been experiencing of late seem to have become a part of your life and there is little that can be done to change the situation. Your emotions run high. But even though you feel as if at times you are about to burst... this situation will pass. Try to release your pent-up emotions by participating in some extra physical activities ... like running.. swimming, whatever.There must be some favourite past time, not necessarily strenuous, that can help you to relax.
You are being unduly influenced by the situation that is all around you. You do not like the feeling of loneliness and whatever it is that seems to separate you from others. You know that life can be wonderful and you are anxious to experience life in all its aspects, to live it to the full. You therefore resent any restriction or limitations that are being imposed on you and you insist on going it alone.
You wish to be left in peace... no more conflict and no more differences of opinion ... In fact you just don't want to be involved in any arguments of any shape or form ... All you want is for "them" to get on with it - and to leave you alone..
MagickHLHgurl
January 30th, 2002, 11:24 AM
here it is!
The idea of togetherness, love, warmth, tenderness and mutual understanding fascinates you but you seem to be embarrassed by the thought of allowing this to appear openly. It would appear that you employ a cautious exploratory tactic in the pursuit of this objective, making sure that you are neither irrevocably committed nor found out ....
Always anxious to accept the role of the leader, as indeed you often work well with people, but try to stay out of the limelight. You'd like a life of ease with no one to rock the boat... and someone who understands you is so important in your life...
Enough is enough ... But the problems never seem to stop. They never stop.. You feel, and maybe you are right, that the problems seem to go on and on ...and you have indeed had more than your fair share of trials and tribulations. But to give you credit ...You bounce back - Time again and again.... you stick to your beliefs because deep down you have that inner knowledge, that "belief" system that in the end -everything will turn out OK...and you are right....it will !
Presently, you are experiencing stress because of restriction on your independence. You need and seek respect from other people and it is essential that they appreciate you for yourself and not for what they would like you to be. You have your own beliefs and convictions and you would like to be respected for them. You are anxious to avail yourself of every opportunity that may come your way but nevertheless, come what may, you have the need to control your own destiny without imposed limitations or restrictions.
You are fed up with other people trying to influence you, and you also feel that it is necessary to protect yourself from the threat that your independence and freedom may be restricted. You would just like to be left alone...
hmmm...maybe ishould send this to my dad!

January 30th, 2002, 03:05 PM
I was expecting some generic profile that could fit just about anyone, but mine was TOTALLY accurate. It wasn't so much a complete personality profile, it was more like a gauge of my current frame of mind. It mentioned that I've had a lot of disappointments lately, dreams that I feel have been snatched from me. It said that I'm a laid back person who feels I deserve happiness but don't want to work too hard for it, that I don't like confrontation. It was, like, totally me, y'know! When we move out of this lousy neighborhood and I'm in a better place emotionally, I'll try it again. And I'm gonna tell all my friends! Thanks Danustouch! You rock!

You are feeling exhausted ... worn out ... drained. You feel that far too much is being asked of you but you still want to overcome these difficulties and establish yourself despite the effect such an effort seems to have on you. You are a proud person, assertive most of the time but at this particular moment you are acting as if you have become resigned to the situation. What you need... is some tender loving care- a gentle pat on the head..(or maybe a "kick-up-the backside") and then you'll be raring to go...
Most people are conditioned by their environment and you are no exception .. You are an extremely emotional person - so much so that "the wrong word" can lead you to tears . You feel other peoples pain.You feel the need of sympathetic relationships and a pleasant work environment in order to develop and grow. You are an impulsive, loving individual with a great deal of inherent feeling.
You have a high opinion of yourself......It is perhaps because of this self-centredness, that you become exasperated when you feel that your needs are misinterpreted by those around you. When this happens.. and it does quite often...you feel that there is no-one that can understand the way you feel, and it is because of this egocentric self that you are quick to take offence.
It is said that we are all influenced by our environment and indeed you are no exception. It would seem at this time that even though you may be surrounded by people, you are experiencing an inner- loneliness. Fortunately you are sufficiently strong minded to realise that life has a great deal to offer you and that you may miss your share of experiences if you fail to make the best use of every opportunity. You therefore pursue your objectives with a fierce intensity and are prepared to commit yourself deeply and readily..You believe that whatever you would like to do or think "you can do" - you do!.. It is because of this attitude that you may be considered by others as arrogant and even conceited... but is fair to say that whatever it is that you really want out of life ... you will put your heart and soul into it and will not take "NO" for an answer.
You are afraid that you may not be able to realise or achieve your hopes and desires ...and so you insist that people should accept you as you are.. and to appreciate your rights to anything that you aspire to.

eep! the results were absolutly me!! espically this part:
"You are a very choosy person .. demanding and exacting in your emotional demands and very particular in your choice of partner. You are self-sufficient and as a result of this overbearing nature you find it difficult to establish any depth of deep physical or mental involvement with members of the opposite sex.."

I picked the colors, not by the ones I liked the best, but by the ones I felt closest too and it got me exactly. This is what mine said:
At this particular time you are feeling the results of extreme stress and you are seeking a "way out"...but you are pushing too hard.. Obviously you need peace, tranquillity and contentment. Your temperament is such that you are hoping ,unrealistically perhaps, that your desires will shortly be fulfilled (even if at this time you are not quite sure what those true aspirations may be!).
Of late, everything seems to be going so slowly .... far slower than you anticipated and this is causing you much anxiety and frustration. It would appear that there is little you can do about the series of events that now seem to be taking place ..... In spite of the fact that you feel like "giving up"...don't...Take a deep breath and start over again and you will find that eventually the expression "All's well that ends well" will have an extra special meaning for you.
Conditions are rather confusing at this time. You would like to involved with a particular person or a particular situation..... but you are holding back. You find it difficult to make a decision...
You are trying to prove yourself .. not only to yourself.. but also to everyone around you...There is much that you would like to say and do .. but the situation warrants self-restraint .. and that is the last thing that you have on your mind..It would seem that you have an unsatisfied need to ally yourself with others whose standards are as high as your own. You want to be different - to stand out from the crowd. This is subjecting you to considerable stress but you tend to stick to your attitudes despite lack of appreciation. Of course, you are finding the situation uncomfortable and would like nothing better but to break away from it. But you don't like the idea of compromise. Your main problem is that you are unable to resolve the situation because you continually postpone making the necessary decisions ... You feel that if you make the wrong choice this would lead to such opposition that you would not be able to command the esteem of others. It is essential that those around you are prepared to comply with your wishes and respect your opinions. Only when this compliance is established, will you feel at ease and secure.
You would like to be respected and valued for yourself and this can only be achieved from a close and harmonious relationship.

Wow. That was really me. If u know me, it's......me, yah, lol
You are feeling really miserable at this time... and you'd like to form a relationship with someone with whom you could really communicate. At the same time ... whoever it may be ... that special "someone" must not conflict with your own belief system or ideals. This makes for tough going - but it would seem that the situation is only transitory ....It will soon pass...
In actual fact you are not willing to exert yourself in any way. You have that truly "laid back" attitude, and unwilling to extend yourself or exert undue effort. You feel that to move forward - be it in your life style or in business relationships - it would require more energy output than you are prepared to give at this time. You want to take life easy and your attitude is such that Enough is Enough
Your involvement seldom measure up to your high emotional expectations and your "needs" to be "loved" and "cared for", have in the past often led to extreme disappointment. But a change is in the wind...make a firm decision to start anew...Just"think" it...and it will happen..
You are experiencing more than your fair share of stress following an acute disappointment. This may be the result of subconscious conflict between hope and necessity. The tension that you are experiencing following your unfulfilled hopes have given rise to anxious uncertainty. You have no doubt that things could get better in the future and so you refuse to make the necessary essential decisions. This conflict between hope and necessity is creating considerable pressure. Instead of resolving this by facing up to making the essential decisions, you are likely to vacillate and concern yourself of trivialities of little consequence.
Sometimes one fears that its not worth formulating new ideas and projects because whatever you seem to have some in the past has never worked out... and you are tired of, as they say, banging your head against a brick wall... No one seems to care.. So mow you are trying to get away from it all by withdrawing into a "fantasy land" but unfortunately "Fantasy Land" is just that... and sooner or later you will have to return to reality ... so why delay the inevitable .. When you do ... you will find that the situation is not as tough as perhaps you thought it was.
Yah, that's creepily and eerily me now.

I was like flar, it sorta got me. I think a real shrink wrote it two, for that color order, cause it really sounded like it I guess.
Maybe since we had to choose the ones we didn't like, we tried to pick the lesser of five evils first, than the next least evil, and so one. Maybe that threw it off?

Creepy it was way too good...
"You are the sort of person that needs a peaceful environment. You seek release from stress and freedom from conflicts and disagreements, of which you seem to have had more than your fair share .But you are taking pains to control the situation by proceeding cautiously..and you so are right in so doing so... You are a very sensitive person -
You are looking for something different. Your imagination has been working overtime and you are seeking adventure .. and you'd like to share that adventure ... the new experience with someone like yourself..Imaginative, Enthusiastic and Sensitive.
You are feeling under considerable pressure and you are being forced to make concessions. You are not particularly happy with this state of affairs but you feel that you have no alternative. If you were to force issues you would be left out or completely ignored by one and all ...
There is considerable amount of stress present in your life at this time and this is perhaps due to some considerable mental and physical frustration... There are various physical needs that are necessary for your well-being ... but whatever the reasons .. mostly of your own making.. your needs are not being fulfilled .. We wonder why?You are under the impression that nobody seems to care for you. This predicament is most uncomfortable and it is because of this that you are experiencing far more stress than you feel you can cope with. You need to find a soul mate. Someone who truly understands you and whose standards are as high as your own. As matters stand you would like to break away from the vicious cycle that you find yourself entrapped ... but this is easier said than done. You refuse to compromise with your opinions and essentially you are unable to resolve the situation because you are continually postponing the making of the necessary decision. You are stubborn ... but this should be no deterrent experiencing a happy life .. You want to be liked for yourself .. for the way you are. ..
You are completely worn out and you are not in the mood for any further demands on your resources. The situation - such as it is - has rendered you quite helpless, unable to continue the mental battle that you have been pursuing for some considerable time. Enough is enough. All you would like to do now would be to have some time for yourself... To find a peaceful situation where you can recuperate in your own time..."
Can we say ARGH!??

This one totally nailed me..but this part in particular..
"As of late, you have been experiencing untold stress .. and this is a result of continuous frustration ... You haven't been taking care of all your physical needs... and it's beginning to show."
It isn't showing..unless you see me during one of my heartaches. I get BAD chest pains out of nowhere now..ive been told its stress. But I can't seem to figure out what I am stressed over. I have also been told its the stuff that usually leads to a heart attack :/ And my dad had a heart attack, according to a dr. visit when he was younger, before he was 20. *shrugs*

February 2nd, 2002, 03:16 PM
Ok, the druid needs time to take the test a few more times and get enough info to make sure this isn't a fluke but gulp Boy did this make me stand up and take note. First, the analysis
You are seeking an affectionate relationship, offering fulfilment and happiness. You are capable of powerful emotional enthusiasm. Deep down, you are a kind loving person, always helpful and willing to adapt yourself if necessary to realise the bond of affection that you desire. But you need the same consideration and understanding from others...and it is this need that sometimes will hold you back ... so let go - trust and you may pleasantly surprised at what happens ...
You like the better things in life. You are sensuous and emotional. You are a follower of the Arts ... and you seek an environment that will give you the fulfilment to the senses that you need.
You feel tired...worn out and listless. The last thing that you want to do is to be in an open conflict with those around you that are forever tormenting you... What to do? -That's the rub..you are feeling that you are being choked...unable to breathe..
From every direction there appears to be unwarranted restrictions on your freedom of action and this is producing considerable stress..You're really looking for independence and freedom from any restriction and therefore avoiding any obligations or anything which might prove hampering. You are being subjected to considerable pressures and you would like nothing better than to escape from them, but you tend to lack the necessary strength of purpose to succeed in this. Whichever way you turn you are being frustrated. You need to be free to do your "thing" in your own way...
You wish to be left in peace... no more conflict and no more differences of opinion ... In fact you just don't want to be involved in any arguments of any shape or form ... All you want is for "them" to get on with it - and to leave you alone..
:huh: :huh: :huh: :eyebrow: :eek: This is a [b]PERFECT[/p] description of my work situation and what the stress from it is producing! Not to mention my home life! :scream: :evilway: :meanhead: ut THAT"S another story.;)
On the other hand...Therese took it and said it was "A load of crap" so I'll have to reserve judgement till I've taken it a few more times. Stiiiiill, that's mighty freaky, how hard it hit home for me.
I think it's time to start a poll and see who stands where.
Peace
