    Now add up the total number of points you received for your
    answers.

    OVER 60 POINTS:

    Others see you as someone they should "handle with care" You're
    seen as vain, self-centered, and extremely dominant. Others may
    admire you, wishing they could be more like you, but don't always
    trust you, hesitating to become too deeply involved with you.

    51 TO 60 POINTS:

    Others see you as an exciting, highly volatile, rather impulsive
    personality; a natural leader, who's quick to make decisions,
    though not always the right ones. They see you as bold and
    adventuresome, someone who will try anything once; someone who
    takes chances and enjoys an adventure. They enjoy being in your
    company because of the excitement you radiate.

    41 TO 50 POINTS:

    Others see you as fresh, lively, charming, amusing,practical, and
    always interesting; someone who's constantly in the center of
    attention, but sufficiently well-balanced not to let it go to
    their head. They also see you as kind, considerate, and
    understanding; someone who'll always cheer them up and help them
    out.

    31 TO 40 POINTS:

    Others see you as sensible, cautious, careful & practical. They
    see you as clever, gifted, or talented, but modest... Not a
    person who makes friends too quickly or easily, but someone who's
    extremely loyal to friends you do make and who expect the same
    loyalty in return. Those who really get to know you realize 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 ever
    broken.

    21 TO 30 POINTS:

    Your friends see you as painstaking and fussy. They see you as
    very cautious, extremely careful, a slow and steady plodder.
    It'd really surprise them if You ever did something impulsively
    or on the spur of the moment, expecting you to examine
    everything carefully from every angle and then, usually decide
    against it. They think this reaction is caused partly by your
    careful nature.

    UNDER 21 POINTS:

    People think you are shy, nervous, and indecisive,someone who
    needs looking after, who always wants someone else to make the
    decisions & who doesn't want to get involved with anyone or
    anything. They see you as a worrier who always sees problems
    that don't exist. Some people think you're boring. Only those
    who know you well know that you aren't.
