personality style

[Witchy Cowgirl]

Azure started a thread about personal style....well what about your personality style? What are you like?

I didn't make this into a poll because I wanted to leave it wide open.

Me? Generally I'm always in a good mood and happy.
At work, I can get a little grumpy....and I talk - out loud - not specifcally to anyone just out loud. Folks at work have gotten used to it and don't answer me unless I specfically say their name. I was in the hall using the copier one day - talking - the accounts receiveable guy came through, stopped, looked around and then asked if I knew that I was alone!:lol: I think that falls into the extrovert catagory. At least that what they said in some class I took.
I'm not a very patient person. And that is a general bad mark for me. And my general good mood can change quickly if things aren't working right. I work on this aspect constantly. Espically with 3 kids.

during the week, it's usually a business casual thing due to my job... on the weekends, I like comfy things, jeans and t-shirts... but if I'm going out I could be in anything from leather to suits... just depends on the situation

[Arzhela]

Let's see...I'm sociable but don't naturally make the effort to blend with others that some people do, which ends up meaning that I don't get together with people as often as I would like. I work in fits and starts, depending on my mood, so it can take me a long time to accomplish some things and very, very little time for others. Not very patient, get annoyed very easily by people who fidget (like people who sit at a desk with legs crossed and kick one foot into the air constantly!!!!!) or make gratuitous noise while I'm working. Hmmm...I almost always hum when I'm walking.
I hate mess, really hate it and sometimes it distracts me so much that I can't work until I clean a room up, but I don't have the self-discipline or diligence to keep things in order on a regular basis.
I'm also very, very, broody. Always have been. I've only just recently gotten the hang of not worrying over a mistake I've made that day until I become a nervous wreck. And, oh yes, if I disagree with someone I say it and jump right into a debate. And if I really see something that I disagree with or feel is really wrong I won't stop until I see it fixed or at least get something done about it. I can't stand BS or people who are patronizing. I really can't stand people who are selfish and manipulative and demand to be the center of attention, probably because I resent them. And I'm very shy, though peole don't usually notice it.

[Radocs]

My brother describes me as "mildly psychotic"... I'm usually pretty grumpy and irritatable but I can be sociable and outgoing occasionally. ^_^

[Rubi Waters]

I'm usually an introvert....I keep to myself as much as possible. I can blend in and make conversations if i feel like it or if I feel comfortable at least. So I can be sociable when I want to....usually i don't :)
I've also been known as the one who takes care of things and gets them done . Or I take care of people alot. I know that's like two opposite personality types but that's me. So I should say that it's all depends on what's going on around me and how I feel.

[Old Witch]

I guess I'm the true brassy extrovert.......I love my bright colors.....royal blue, emerald Green, Ruby red........Talk too loud, laugh too much, and don't give a dang if it bothers anyone else.
I'm steadfastly loyal, quick to anger, and will cool down just as easily.......Once you have me as a friend, you've got me for the rest of my life......And I'm a material girl, but I love my animals above all else, except my family ( but actually, they are my family too)........Working on getting some patience, never have had much at all.......Thats my personality.......

[Sowelu]

Personality Style....
Hmmm...
I am definately a "to-myself-kind of person", maybey too much so at times. I find my comfort at home, getting lost in what seems like endless hours in my artwork. I find my most peace in drowning myself in sculpting, candlemaking, whatever craft I get into the mood for at the time.
My world of course revolves around my family and animals. Sometimes, I tend to become sort of a hermit. I feel, at times...maybey even more lately, like staying at home, not going out anywhere. Our homes are where we usually feel safe, and with everything that is going on in the world, I feel happy and content , just staying at home. I know we can't hide ourselves from the world, but that's what I feel like doing.:)
Other's see me as very sweet and giving. (I think:p )
I do see myself as a sweet person. Sensitive! Quiet...maybey even withdrawn. I don't like to open myself up too often to anyone. Trust can be a hard thing to give and recieve.
Boy am I babbling here....lol
:D
I have always been one to help a person who needs help, in any way I can. I care about people, and it makes my day to be able to put a smile on a persons face!;)
Okay, I'm done



...for now....:wave: :nyah:

[Flaire-FireStar]

Quiet, shy, sarcastic....Lately, I could add irritable to that list. I won't talk unless I have something worth saying (IRL :rolleyes: ), and, more or less try to stick to myself.

I'm a loner, what can I say? ;)

Oh yes....I've also been called "odd" by a psychiatrist.....

[Storm]

I am a hyperactive introvert with social anxiety disorder in that I will not approach anyone ever(I don't like making business calls...even ordering Pizza is hard for me)...I must be approached. But then I also like being the center of attention and I usually am. I wear dark colors or I wear bright and loud colors depending on my mood. I come off as crabby alot but I am usually lost in my own head. In dance clubs and wedding I am usually on the dance floor lost in the music and I am wild and free and don't care what anyone thinks of me. Men don't approach me. And most women hate me. But I don't care because the friends I have love me and would die for me and I would for them. But everyone, everyone,even those who do love me...think I am the craziest person they know. Right now I am cute enough to forgive but someday I will just be the crazy old witch. But I am okay with that.

[Butterfly]

I'm that quiet girl who will shyly smile at you in large groups and maybe say 10 words the whole time, but who will talk your ear off once I get comfortable with you. I'm more quiet and reserved at 22 than I was at 21, and probably a bit afraid to trust people. But the few who I do trust, I'd do almost anything for them, even if it means putting off something I wanted.

I love figuring people out, and sometimes I will sit back and observe, while at other times, I'll ask questions. People fascinate me.

I tend to wear darker colors and jeans when I'm at not work. Sometimes I'll braid my hair and wear it in pigtails just for fun at work. My favorite colors are green, silver and purple, and one day, when I'm lucky enough to have my own house and time to take care of plants, I'll have a lovely patio/backyard area with mostly those colors.

I'm more dreamer than realist. And I'm probably guilty of doing more wishful thinking than I should because I don't know how to make it happen just yet.

[Stacy]

biopolar (clinical or not) with periods of strong hyperactivity followed by a tranquility..

My mood also changes a lot and sometimes its even hard form me to follow it 8O

[Saphra]

I'm outgoing and loud on the outside, shy and insecure on the inside. I try to overcome the fact that I'm shy by being loud and outgoing and meeting as many people as I can. I don't know what else I can say. I mean I dress in revealing shirts and baggy pants.

Being a crazy old witch is not all that bad..........;)

[st0rm]

Mostly I'm paranoid and irritatable but somtimes I'm just a nice guy :p

[~ Monk ~]

I'm quiet, more introverted now than I was as a kid. I have a very sarcastic and humerous side, but I only let my sarcasm show to people I know well or am comfortable with - I find too many people just don't "get" sarcasm. In social situations where I don't know anyone I tend to be an observer - I like to join in conversations where I can actually contribute something and feel like I care about what I'm saying, I therefore suck at small talk. :D I'm generally happy. Go through phases where I'm either extremely productive or where I prefer to disengage more - lose myself in books, movies, games, etc. I tend to spend money a bit too freely and regret it later. I have a small circle of friends but am fiercely loyal to them - and I include my cats in that circle. I'm as happy being alone as I am being with people.

I have no patience for drama queens and people who bring personal baggage with them everywhere they go. I like to be helpful, but not to be leeched upon. People who suck energy drive me nuts and I avoid them at all costs. So do people who lack common decency, good manners or an ability to take responsibility for their own actions.

And my favorite clothes...would have to be a hockey jersey and a comfortable pair of jeans.

[Mithrea]

In a word: Moody.

I'm fickle. I hold grudges. I'm intolerant of stupidity, tolerant of almost everything else. I'm pushy and timid when I shouldn't be. I can make you laugh while I'm crying. I cry a lot. I like helping people but at the same time, I don't like people. What can I say . . . I confuse myself. :rolleyes:

Except you left out impatience and chronic procrastination. :p

[Raevyn]

Let's see.. stubborn, sharp, sometimes sarcastic, honest to a fault (well, it upsets people sometimes, which I suppose is a fault), don't make friends easily, fiercely loyal to those friends I do have, often very unforgiving of friends who make mistakes... logical, calculated, succinct - can't be bothered to waste time on fluff, emotions I think are unreasonable, drama or drawn out conflict, etc.

Everyone and everything must have a reason, a basis; facts, evidence, history, or even logic in terms of personal belief that's well thought out and structured. Things must be done on time, in order, and in the most efficient way possible. One concept I stress is "polished". I have a tendency to be accused of bashing people when in reality I'm asking them to clarify or think critically, so I can understand their motivations and beliefs, even when I agree with them.

Most of the time I don't let anyone know how hurt, depressed, or vulnerable I am. I'm very much a (triple) capricorn - which means very passionate and sensitive in ways but often outwardly seem cold-hearted, cynical, and blunt. I'm often accused of being coldhearted and hateful while I'm really just putting the shields up because I'm hurt so deeply.

So yeah, I think that's me in a nutshell ;)

[Faery-Wings]

My overt personality depends on my level of comfort with the people I am with. I am pretty shy. And like Saphra, I have learned to overcompensate, as long as I don't feel intimidated. I can talk to anybody about anything. But if I feel unnerved by other people, I clam up.

To my family and close friends, I am pretty happy, occasionally very silly (especially with my hubby and kids), honest to a fault, sometimes moody and cranky. I love being around good friends and we usually have plans about every weekend to do something. But I also desperately need alone time (and I don't get much of that!). I am a bit *ahem- a lot- wacky and I love to laugh. Hubby and I knew we were meant to be- we have the same off beat sense of humor. My son also has it. :)

Basically, the "real" me is a what you see is what you get. I don't like pretenses for any reason and don't tolerate much of that with others. But I am loyal to those I feel deserve it. I prefer to have a close goup of friend who are like family than a lot of people who aren't.

I think I am a good person, and I try to be.
