Holy crap. This is brilliant (personality test I found a bit ago).

[BlueIris]

http://www.colorquiz.com for those interested.

The gist of it involves clicking on a variety of colored squares, and then a test will provide you with a description of your current set of, er, issues, based on the order in which you picked your colors. Here's what I got:

Your Existing Situation:
Needs, and insists on having, a close and understanding relationship, or at least some method of satisfying a compulsion to feel identified.

Your Stress Sources:
The situation is regarded as threatening or dangerous. Outraged by the thought that she will be unable to achieve her goals and distressed at the feeling of helplessness to remedy this. Over-extended and feels beset, possibly to the point of nervous prostration.

Your Restrained Characteristics:
Willing to become emotionally involved and able to achieve satisfaction through sexual activity.

Remains emotionally unattached even when involved in a close relationship.

An unadmitted lack of confidence makes her careful to avoid open conflict and she feels she must make the best of things as they are.

Your Desired Objective:
Needs a change in her circumstances or in her relationships which will permit relief from stress. Seeking a solution which will open up new and better possibilities and allow hopes to be fulfilled.

Your Actual Problem:
Agitation, unpredictability, and irritation accompanying depleted vitality and intolerance of further demands have all placed her in a position in which she feels menaced by her circumstances. Feeling powerless to remedy this by any action of her own, she is desperately hoping that some solution will provide a way of escape.

I'm kind of freaked by how adroit an assessment this is, actually. Just wanted to give the online personality test hobbyists a heads up if anyone is interested in reviewing this.

[MissHoneychurch]

1. This is really scary

My results:

Your Existing Situation
Relatively inactive and in a static condition, while conflict of one sort or another prevents peace of mind. Unable to achieve relationships of the desired degree of mutual affection and understanding

Your Stress Sources
Sensitive and impressionable, prone to absorbing enthusiasms. Seeks an idealized--but so far unfulfilled--situation in which she can share with another a complete accord and mutual depth of understanding. Feels there is a risk of being exploited if she is too ready to trust others and therefore demands proof of their sincerity. Needs to know exactly where she stands in relationships

Your Restrained Characteristics

Insists that her goals and realistic and sticks obstinately to them, even though circumstances are forcing her to compromise. Very exacting in the standards she applies to her choice of a partner.

Your Desired Objective
Keeps herself under strict control so as not to break down under her difficulties. Needs a safer and easier situation in which she can feel more secure and have a chance to recover.

[BlueIris]

[teach1st]

2. While I'm waiting for the counter in the test

to hit 0 after the first set, you might want to remove the comma from your link.

http://www.colorquiz.com/

[teach1st]

4. That test shows that I'm deeply disturbed at criticism...

...and somewhat of a control freak.

That makes me mad I want to know exactly how that test works and further I demand more input into determining results.

[LaurenG]

7. Mine says that I don't like it either

Who does?

[zanne]

53. It says that I'm disturbed by criticism too.

That pisses me off! Who are THEY to tell ME that I'm disturbed by criticism? :)

[LaurenG]

3. Geez, amazing, I must really want freedom.

Your Existing Situation
Persistent. Demands what she feels to be her due and endeavors to maintain her position intact.


Your Stress Sources
Wishes to be independent, unhampered, and free from any limitation or restriction, other than those which she imposes of herself or by her own choice and decision.


Your Restrained Characteristics
Willing to become emotionally involved and able to achieve satisfaction through sexual activity.
Wants to broaden her fields of activity and insists that her hopes and ideas are realistic. Distressed by the fear that she may be prevented from doing what she wants; needs both peaceful conditions and quiet reassurance to restore her confidence.




Your Desired Objective
Longs for a tender and sympathetic bond and for a situation of idealized harmony. Has an imperative need for tenderness and affection. Susceptible to anything esthetic.


Your Actual Problem
Seeks to avoid criticism and to prevent restriction of her freedom to act, and to decide for herself by the exercise of great personal charm in her dealings with others.

[trumad]

5. It says that i'm the UnaBomber.

[BlueIris]

6. Oh, come on. It does not.

What does it really say? Or was it too uncanny to post?

[Misunderestimator]

18. It says that I'm the unabomber's mother.

:shrug:

[trumad]

27. Mom...Mom

remember when we use to take showers together? :evilgrin:

[Misunderestimator]

28. LOL! That's cute as hell.

[hyphenate]

8. The links isn't working directly

because of the comma within the slash. If someone wants to get there, remove the comma and it works fine.

[BlueIris]

10. Sorry. That was my very bad. I fixed it so it works now.

Isn't it freaky?

[Darth_Kitten]

9. wow! this is mine.....

Your Existing Situation

Imaginative and sensitive; seeking an outlet for these qualities--especially in the company of someone equally sensitive. Interest and enthusiasm are readily aroused by the unusual or the adventurous.

Your Stress Sources

Has an unsatisfied need to ally herself with others whose standards are as high as her own, and to stand out from the herd. This desire for preeminence isolates her and inhibits her readiness to give herself freely. While she wants to surrender and let herself go, she regards this as a weakness which must be resisted. This self-restraint, she feels, will lift her above the rank and file and ensure recognition as a unique and distinctive personality.

Your Restrained Characteristics

Circumstances are such that she feels forced to compromise for the time being if she is to avoid being cut off from affection or from full participation.
Trying to calm down and unwind after a period of over-agitation which has left her listless and devoid of energy. In need of peace and quiet; becomes irritable if this is denied him.



Your Desired Objective

Wants to make a favorable impression and be recognized. Needs to feel appreciated and admired. Sensitive and easily hurt if no notice is taken of her or if she is not given adequate acknowledgment.

Your Actual Problem

Needs to be valued and respected as an exceptional individual, in order to increase her self-esteem and her feeling of personal worth. Resists mediocrity and sets herself high standards.

[RPM]

12. mine...

Your Existing Situation
Active, but feels that insufficient progress or reward is being made for the effort exerted

Your Stress Sources
Delights in the tasteful, the gracious, and the sensitive, but maintains his attitude of critical appraisal and refuses to be swept off his feet unless genuineness and integrity can be absolutely vouched for. Therefore keeps a strict and watchful control on his emotional relationships as he must know exactly where he stands. Demands complete sincerity as a protection against his own tendency to be too trusting.

Your Restrained Characteristics
Feels that he cannot do much about his existing problems and difficulties and that he must make the best of things as they are. Able to achieve satisfaction through sexual activity.
Feels that things stand in his way, that circumstances are forcing him to compromise and forgo some pleasures for the time being.


Your Desired Objective
Hopes that ties of affection and good-fellowship will bring release and contentment. His own need for approval makes him ready to be of help to others and in exchange he wants warmth and understanding. Open to new ideas and possibilities which he hopes will prove fruitful and interesting.

Your Actual Problem
Intensely critical of the existing conditions which he feels are disorganized or insufficiently clear-cut. Is therefore seeking some solution which will clarify the situation and introduce a more acceptable degree of order and method.

Your Actual Problem #2
The fear that he may be prevented from achieving the things he wants leads him into a relentless search for satisfaction in the pursuit of illusory or meaningless activities.

[hyphenate]

13. This used to be the Max Luscher test

My results aren't perfect, but some of it is applicable.

Your Existing Situation
Needs warm companionship, but is intolerant of anything short of special consideration from those close to her. If this is not forthcoming, is liable to shut herself away from them.

I don't expect any "special consideration" at all. Respect and regular attention is all I require.

Your Stress Sources
Has an unsatisfied need to ally herself with others whose standards are as high as her own, and to stand out from the herd. Her control of her sensual instincts restricts her ability to give herself, but the resulting isolation leads to the urge to surrender and allow herself to merge with another. This disturbs her. as such instincts are regarded as weaknesses to be overcome; she feels that only by continued self-restraint can she hope to maintain her attitude of individual superiority. Wants to be loved or admired for herself alone; needs attention, recognition, and the esteem of others.

It is true: I want to be accepted for myself, and not for what I can do, or not do.


Your Restrained Characteristics
Feels that she is receiving less than her share and that there is no one on whom she can rely for sympathy and understanding. Pent-up emotions and a certain egocentricity make her quick to take offense, but she realizes that she has to make the best of things as they are.

Mostly true, but I rarely have outbursts. I'm the slow, simmering type.

Your Desired Objective
Seeks success, stimulation, and a life full of experience. Wants to develop freely and to shake off the shackles of self-doubt, to win, and to live intensely. Likes contacts with others and is enthusiastic by nature. Receptive to anything new, modern, or intriguing; has many interests and wants to expand her fields of activity. Optimistic about the future.

I do want to experience new things, but I don't have a lot of self-doubt, and right now, I'm not that enthused by the future.

Your Actual Problem
The fear that she might be prevented from achieving the things she wants leads her to play her part with an urgent and hectic intensity.

I'm not that intense--the fire burned down a very long time ago.

Your Actual Problem #2
Takes a delight in action and wants to be respected and esteemed for her personal accomplishments.

Mostly true

[BlueIris]

14. ACK. I took it again and got another set of freaky-accurate results.

Your Existing Situation
Attracted by anything new, modern, or intriguing. Liable to the bored by the humdrum, the ordinary, or the traditional.

Your Stress Sources
The tenacity and strength of will necessary to contend with existing difficulties has become weakened. Feels overtaxed, worn out, and getting nowhere, but continues to stand her ground. She feels this adverse situation as an actual tangible pressure which is intolerable to her and from which she wants to escape, but she feels unable to make the necessary decision.

Your Restrained Characteristics
Emotionally inhibited. Feels forced to compromise, making it difficult for her to form a stable emotional attachment.

Egocentric and therefore quick to take offense. Sensitive and sentimental, but conceals this from all except those very close to him.

Circumstances force her to compromise and to forgo some pleasures for the time being. Capable of achieving physical satisfaction through sexual activity.

Your Desired Objective
Wants to swipe aside the things that stand in her way, to follow her impulses, and be involved in special or exciting happenings. In this way she hopes to deaden the intensity of her conflicts, but her impulsive behavior leads her to take risks.

Your Actual Problem
The tensions induced by trying to cope with conditions which are really beyond her capabilities, or her reserves of strength, have led to considerable anxiety and a sense of personal (but unadmitted) inadequacy. She attempts to remedy this by intense activity and by insistence on getting her own way. Faulty self-control can lead to ungovernable displays of anger.

I don't know about that "egocentric" thing or the "ungovernable displays of anger" thing, but this summary is crazily insightful about another level of my present set of perspectives and problems.

[SarahB]

15. Wow!

Your Existing Situation

Acts calmly, with the minimum of upset, in order to handle existing relationships. Likes to feel relaxed and at ease with her associates and those close to him.


Your Stress Sources

Wants to overcome a feeling of emptiness and to bridge the gap which she feels separates herself from others. Anxious to experience life in all its aspects, to explore all its possibilities, and to live it to the fullest. She therefore resents any restriction or limitation being imposed on her and insists on being free and unhampered.


Your Restrained Characteristics

Feels that she is burdened with more than her fair share of problems. However, she sticks to her goals and tries to overcome her difficulties by being flexible and accommodating.

Very exacting in the standards she applies to her choice of a partner and seeking a rather unrealistic perfection in her sex life.

Willing to become emotionally involved and able to achieve satisfaction through sexual activity, but tries to avoid conflict.


Your Desired Objective

Preoccupied with things of an intensely exciting nature, whether erotically stimulating or otherwise. :blush: Wants to be regarded as an exciting and interesting personality with an altogether charming and impressive influence on others. Uses tactics skillfully so as to avoid endangering her chances of success or undermining others' confidence in herself.


Your Actual Problem

Fights against restriction or limitation, and insists on developing freely as a result of her own efforts.


Your Actual Problem #2

The fear that she might be prevented from achieving the things she wants leads her to play her part with an urgent and hectic intensity.

[Modem Butterfly]

16. Hee-hee

Reminds me of a psychology class I had once. The professor (well, Graduate Teaching Fellow) had everyone take a similar personality quiz at the end of class and the next time we met, he handed out personalized, confidential results. Everyone agreed that the results were amazingly accurate. Turns out they were identical for everyone in the class (one result, 40 students).

[johnnie]

20. I was going to say

This reminds me of the horoscopes in the paper.

[supernova]

17. Oohh, I've been found out!

Your Existing Situation
Imaginative and sensitive; seeking an outlet for these qualities--especially in the company of someone equally sensitive. Interest and enthusiasm are readily aroused by the unusual or the adventurous.

Your Stress Sources
Has an unsatisfied need to ally herself with others whose standards are as high as her own, and to stand out from the herd. Her control of her sensual instincts restricts her ability to give herself, but the resulting isolation leads to the urge to surrender and allow herself to merge with another. This disturbs her. as such instincts are regarded as weaknesses to be overcome; she feels that only by continued self-restraint can she hope to maintain her attitude of individual superiority. Wants to be loved or admired for herself alone; needs attention, recognition, and the esteem of others.

Your Restrained Characteristics
Unhappy at the resistance she feels whenever she tries to assert herself. However, she believes that there is little she can do and that she must make the best of the situation.

Your Desired Objective
Urgently in need of rest, relaxation, peace, and affectionate understanding. Feels she has been treated with a lack of consideration and is upset and agitated as a result. Regards her situation as intolerable as long as her requirements are not complied with.

Your Actual Problem
Needs to achieve a stable and peaceful condition, enabling her to free herself of the worry that she may be prevented from achieving all the things she wants.

Your Actual Problem #2
Wants to be valued and respected, and seeks this from a close and peaceful association of mutual esteem.

[Trigger Hippie]

19. Here's my results

Your Existing Situation
Unwilling to extend herself or exert undue effort (with the possible exception of sexual activity). Feels that further progress requires more from her than she is willing or able to give. Would prefer reasonable comfort and security rather than the rewards of greater ambition.

Your Stress Sources
Wants to overcome a feeling of emptiness and of separation from others. Believes that life still has far more to offer and that she may miss her share of experiences if she fails to make the best use of every opportunity. She therefore pursues her objectives with a fierce intensity and commits herself deeply and readily. Feels herself to be completely competent in any field in which she engages, and can sometimes be considered by others to be interfering or meddlesome.

Your Restrained Characteristics
Remains emotionally unattached even when involved in a close relationship. Insists that her goals and realistic and sticks obstinately to them, even though circumstances are forcing her to compromise. Very exacting in the standards she applies to her choice of a partner. Insists that her hopes and ideas are realistic, but need reassurance and encouragement. Egocentric and therefore quick to take offense.

Your Desired Objective
Seeks the determination and elasticity of will necessary to establish herself and to make herself independent despite the difficulties of her situation. Wants to overcome opposition and achieve recognition.

Your Actual Problem
Afraid that she may be prevented from achieving the things she wants and therefore demands that others should recognize her right to them.

Your Actual Problem #2
Strongly resists outside influence and any interference with her freedom to make her own decisions and plans. Works to establish and strengthen her own position.


These are pretty darn accurate! :)

[HeeBGBz]

21. I did that one before. Verrrry accurate.

It was eerie.

[ScamUSA.Com]

22. no offense, but I think it's bogus

you know like horoscopes and astrology...

you can get almost any fortune cookie to apply to any human

[Modem Butterfly]

24. Definitely for entertainment purposes only

[BikeWriter]

23. Hmm, my shrinks say I have PTSD. What do they know?

:shrug:

Your Existing Situation
Defensive. Feels his position is threatened or inadequately established. Determined to pursue his objectives despite the anxiety induced by opposition.

Your Stress Sources
Unfulfilled hopes have led to uncertainty and apprehension. Needs to feel secure and to avoid any further disappointment, and fears being passed over or losing standings and prestige. Doubts that things will be any better in the future and this negative attitude leads him to make exaggerated demands and to refuse to make reasonable compromises.

Your Restrained Characteristics
Relationships rarely measure up to his high emotional expectations and his need to be made the center of things, leading to disappointment . Always has mental reservations and tends to remain emotionally isolated and unattached.
Trying to calm down and unwind after a period of over-agitation which has left him listless and devoid of energy. In need of peace and quiet; becomes irritable if this is denied him.

Egocentric and therefore quick to take offense. Able to achieve satisfaction through sexual activity but tends to hold aloof emotionally.

Your Desired Objective
Defiantly opposes any sort of restriction or opposition. Sticks obstinately to his own point of view in the belief that this proves his independence and self-determination.

Your Actual Problem
Disappointment and the fear that there is no point in formulating fresh goals have led to anxiety, emptiness, and an unadmitted self-contempt. His refusal to admit this leads to his adopting a headstrong and defiant attitude.

[blondeatlast]

25. My results, with my comments:

Sensuous. Inclined to luxuriate in the things which give gratification to the senses, but rejects anything tasteless, vulgar, or coarse.
This part is dead to rights.

Your Stress Sources
An existing situation or relationship is unsatisfactory, but she feels unable to improve it without willing cooperation. Unwilling to expose her vulnerability and therefore considers it inadvisable to display affection or to be over-demonstrative. She regards the relationship as a depressing tie but, although she wants to be independent and unhampered, she does not want to risk losing anything. All this leads her to react touchily and with impatience, while the urge to 'get away from it all' results in considerable restlessness. The ability to concentrate may suffer.
I consider my relationship pretty satisfactory, but there may be a grain of truth in this. I'm happier with him than withouit, though.

Your Restrained Characteristics
Feels she is receiving less than her share, but that she will have to conform and make the best of her situation.
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.
Health and finances make this dead to rights again.

Your Desired Objective
Seeks success, stimulation, and a life full of experience. Wants to develop freely and to shake off the shackles of self-doubt, to win, and to live intensely. Likes contacts with others and is enthusiastic by nature. Receptive to anything new, modern, or intriguing; has many interests and wants to expand her fields of activity. Optimistic about the future.
Sounds good to me.

Your Actual Problem
Anxiety and restless dissatisfaction, either with circumstances or with unfulfilled emotional requirements, have produced stress. She tries to escape by intense activity, directed either towards personal success or towards variety of experience.
Again, considering my health situatuion, this does make perfect sense.

[DS1]

26. HAHHAA I picked all complementary colors Blue/Orange

Violet/Yellow Green/Red etc etc

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.

Suppresses his innate enthusiasm and imaginative nature, for fear that he might be carried away by it only to find himself pursuing some will-o'-the-wisp. Feels he has been misled and abused and has withdrawn to hold himself cautiously aloof from others. Keeps a careful and critical watch to see whether motives towards him are sincere--a watchfulness which easily develops into suspicion and distrust.

Circumstances are such that he feels forced to compromise for the time being if he is to avoid being cut off from affection or from full participation.
Feels that he cannot do much about his existing problems and difficulties and that he must make the best of things as they are. Able to achieve satisfaction through sexual activity.

Disappointment at the non-fulfillment of his hopes and the fear that to formulate fresh goals will only lead to further setbacks have resulted in considerable anxiety. He is trying to escape from this into a peaceful and harmonious relationship, protecting him from dissatisfaction and lack of appreciation.

Needs to protect himself against his tendency to be too trusting, as he finds it is liable to be misunderstood or exploited by others. Is therefore seeking a relationship providing peaceful and understanding intimacy, and in which each knows exactly where the other stands.


================================================================
Ok, real answers

Willing and adaptable. Only at peace when closely attached to a person, group, or organization on a which reliance can be placed.

Sensitive, and susceptible to gentleness and delicacy of feeling, with a desire to blend into some sort of mystic fusion of erotic harmony. However, this desire remains unsatisfied due to the lack of a suitable partner or adverse conditions, and he keeps a strict and watchful control on his emotional relationships as he needs to know precisely where he stands. Is fastidious, esthetic, and has a cultured taste which allows him to form and express his own taste and judgment, especially in the fields of art and artistic creativity. Strives to ally with others who can assist him in his intellectual or artistic growth.

Willing to become emotionally involved and able to achieve satisfaction through sexual activity.
Circumstances are restrictive and hampering, forcing him to forgo all joys and pleasures for the time being

Seeks the determination and elasticity of will necessary to establish himself and to make himself independent despite the difficulties of his situation. Wants to overcome opposition and achieve recognition.

Works to strengthen his position and bolster his self-esteem by examining his own accomplishments (and those of others) with critical appraisal and scientific discrimination. Insists on having things clear-cut and unequivocal.

Needs to be valued and respected as an exceptional individual, in order to increase his self-esteem and his feeling of personal worth. Resists mediocrity and sets himself high standards.

[no name no slogan]

29. Man I sound like the Soup Nazi

Relatively inactive and in a static condition, while conflict of one sort or another prevents peace of mind. Unable to achieve relationships of the desired degree of mutual affection and understanding.

Believes that he is not receiving his share--that he is neither properly understood nor adequately appreciated. Feels that he is being compelled to conform, and close relationships leave him without any sense of emotional involvement.

Circumstances are restrictive and hampering, forcing him to forgo all joys and pleasures for the time being. Clings to his belief that his hopes and ideas are realistic, but needs encouragement and reassurance. Applies very exacting standards to his choice of a partner and wants guarantees against loss or disappointment.


Has an unsatisfied need to ally himself with others whose standards are as high as his own, and to stand out from the herd. This desire for preeminence isolates him and inhibits his readiness to give himself freely. While he wants to surrender and let himself go, he regards this as a weakness which must be resisted. This self-restraint, he feels, will lift him above the rank and file and ensure recognition as a unique and distinctive personality.


Longs for sensitive and sympathetic understanding and wants to protect himself against argument, conflict, or any exhausting stresses.

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.

****************************

My current situ: recently hospitalized for depression, dumped by wife two months ago and going through a stressful divorce, looking for new home, stressful job, somewhat lonely...wow, this is just bizarre. (cue Twilight Zone music here...)

[MissHoneychurch]

30. hey

[no name no slogan]

31. OMG

Now THAT is bizarre! I'll leave for Frankfurt right now-- we can share our horror stories! :D

[MissHoneychurch]

32. ok. let me know when you land

:D

[no name no slogan]

34. The way today is going, I may start walking!

I'll let you know! :hi:

[MN ChimpH8R]

33. This is friggin spooky

Your Existing Situation
Easily affected by his environment and readily moved by the emotions of others. Seeks congenial relationships and an occupation which will promote them.

Your Stress Sources
Wishes to be independent, unhampered, and free from any limitation or restriction, other than those which he imposes of himself or by his own choice and decision.

Your Restrained Characteristics
The situation is preventing him from establishing himself, but he feels he must make the best of things as they are.
Feels trapped in a distressing or uncomfortable situation and seeking some way of gaining relief. Able to achieve satisfaction from sexual activity.

Your Desired Objective
Fascinated by the idea of an idealized association of tenderness and mutual enchantment. Embarrassed by the thought of allowing this to appear openly, and so employs cautious exploratory tactics in the pursuit of this objective, making sure that he is neither irrevocably committed nor found out.


Your Actual Problem
Fears that his independence will be threatened or severely restricted unless he protects himself from outside influence. Does not want to be bothered.

Frighteningly accurate. :scared:

[tjdee]

35. That IS really creepy! It described me to a tee. Scary.

But why doesn't it tell me how to fix my problems, LOL!

[deadparrot]

36. Mine...

Your Existing Situation
Trying to improve her position and prestige. Dissatisfied with her existing circumstances and considers some improvement essential to her self-esteem.

Your Stress Sources
Is responsive to outside stimuli and wants to experience everything intensely, but is finding the existing situation extremely frustrating. Needs sympathetic understanding and a sense of security. Distressed by her apparently powerlessness to achieve her goals.

Your Restrained Characteristics
Willing to become emotionally involved and able to achieve satisfaction through sexual activity.

Insists that her goals and realistic and sticks obstinately to them, even though circumstances are forcing her to compromise. Very exacting in the standards she applies to her choice of a partner.

Egocentric and therefore quick to take offense. Able to obtain physical satisfaction from sexual activity but tends to hold aloof emotionally.

Circumstances are such that she feels forced to compromise for the time being if she is to avoid being cut off from affection or from full participation.

Your Desired Objective
Needs a peaceful environment. Wants release from stress, and freedom from conflicts or disagreement. Takes pains to control the situation and its problems by proceeding cautiously. Has sensitivity of feeling and a fine eye for detail.

Your Actual Problem
Depleted vitality has created an intolerance for any further stimulation, or demands on her resources. A feeling of powerlessness subjects her to agitation and acute distress. Tries to escape from this by relinquishing the struggle, and by finding peaceful and restful conditions in which to recuperate in an atmosphere of affection and security.

Your Actual Problem #2
Needs to protect herself against her tendency to be too trusting, as she finds it is liable to be misunderstood or exploited by others. Is therefore seeking a relationship providing peaceful and understanding intimacy, and in which each knows exactly where the other stands.

[Wapsie B]

37. Yes it's very interesting.

Doesn't mince words at all when you look at the results.


Your Existing Situation
Seeks to express the need for identification in a sensitive and intimate atmosphere where esthetic or emotional delicacy can be protected and nurtured.


Your Stress Sources
The existing situation is disagreeable. Has an unsatisfied need to ally himself with others whose standards are as high as his own, and to stand out from the rank and file. His control of his sensual instincts restricts his ability to give himself, but the resulting isolation leads to the urge to surrender and allow himself to merge with another. This disturbs him, as such instincts are regarded as weaknesses to be overcome; he feels that only by continued self-restraint can he hope to maintain his attitude of individual superiority. Wants to be loved or admired for himself alone; needs attention, recognition, and the esteem of others.


Your Restrained Characteristics
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.
Insists that his goals are realistic and sticks obstinately to them, even though circumstances are forcing him to compromise. Very exacting in the standards he applies to his choice of a partner.




Your Desired Objective
Strives for a life rich in activity and experience, and for a close bond offering sexual and emotional fulfillment.


Your Actual Problem
Takes a delight in action and wants to be respected and esteemed for his personal accomplishments.


Your Actual Problem #2
The fear that he might be prevented from achieving the things he wants leads him to play his part with an urgent and hectic intensity.

[Der Blaue Engel]

38. I've taken this one before

And every time, it says I'm a jackass. Boy, I must really be a jackass. I don't feel like I'm the kind of person it describes, but she sure is a jackass.

:kick:

I think it must not like the fact that I pick the same colors in the same order both times. It interprets that as "demanding my way" in all circumstances. Maybe I'm taking the test wrong; I can't help picking the same colors each time. I hate most of the colors, so I just pick the ones I hate least first. (Is that demanding and rigid? Guh. Maybe it is.)

Dammit, I can't help it if I'm right and everybody else is wrong!

:cry:

[Ariana Celeste]

39. Surprisingly accurate, except for two things.

Which I will bold.


Your Existing Situation
Having difficulty making progress and unwilling to put forth further effort. Seeking more comfortable conditions where she can avoid anything disturbing.

Your Stress Sources
Seeks independence and freedom from any restriction and therefore avoids obligations or anything which might prove hampering. She is being subjected to considerable pressure and wants to escape from it so that she can obtain what she needs, but tends to lack the necessary strength of purpose to succeed in this.

Your Restrained Characteristics
Remains emotionally unattached even when involved in a close relationship. (I am very emotionally attached to my man and his mother.)
Insists that her hopes and ideas are realistic, but need reassurance and encouragement. Egocentric and therefore quick to take offense.

Your Desired Objective
Unwilling to participate and wishes to avoid all forms of stimulation. (Almost true. But make that "most" rather than "all") Has had to put up with too much of a tiring or exhausting nature and now desires protection and noninvolvement

Your Actual Problem
Failure to establish herself in a manner consonant with her own high opinion of her worth, combined with the continued effort to prove herself with inadequate resources, have resulted in considerable stress. Tries to escape from these excessive demands on her meager reserves by adopting a defensive attitude in which she refuses to be committed, or to be involved in further unpleasantness.

[KatyaR]

40. Can someone explain this to me?

Your Desired Objective
Wishes to find her stimulation in a voluptuous atmosphere of sensuous luxury.

I'm not sure if this means a Bottecelli painting or some 300-count sheets!

[Book Lover]

41. What if my montior is incorrectly calibrated?

Hmm... experiment time. Better than working :-)

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

42. I'm two weeks away from the Texas bar exam; what do you think??

Your Existing Situation

Readily participates in things affording excitement or stimulation. Wants to feel exhilarated.


Your Stress Sources

Wants to overcome a feeling of emptiness and of separation from others. Believes that life still has far more to offer and that she may miss her share of experiences if she fails to make the best use of every opportunity. She therefore pursues her objectives with a fierce intensity and commits herself deeply and readily. Feels herself to be completely competent in any field in which she engages, and can sometimes be considered by others to be interfering or meddlesome.


Your Restrained Characteristics

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.

Feels trapped in a distressing or uncomfortable situation and seeking some way of gaining relief. Able to achieve satisfaction from sexual activity.


Your Desired Objective

Seeks an affectionate relationship, offering fulfillment and happiness. Capable of powerful emotional enthusiasm. Helpful, and willing to adapt herself if necessary to realize the bond of affection she desires. Needs the same consideration and understanding from others.


Your Actual Problem

Needs to achieve a stable and peaceful condition, enabling her to free herself of the worry that she may be prevented from achieving all the things she wants.


Your Actual Problem #2

Does not wish to be involved in differences of opinion, contention or argument, preferring to be left in peace.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

43. That was fun, thanks!

Your Existing Situation

Readily participates in things affording excitement or stimulation. Wants to feel exhilarated.


Your Stress Sources

Wishes to be independent, unhampered, and free from any limitation or restriction, other than those which she imposes of herself or by her own choice and decision.


Your Restrained Characteristics

Believes that she is not receiving her share--that she is neither properly understood nor adequately appreciated. Feels that she is being compelled to conform, and close relationships leave her without any sense of emotional involvement. (The last part is funny, I'm just coming out of a 19 year marriage)

Willing to become emotionally involved and able to achieve satisfaction through sexual activity, but tries to avoid conflict.


Your Desired Objective

Needs a change in her circumstances or in her relationships which will permit relief from stress. Seeking a solution which will open up new and better possibilities and allow hopes to be fulfilled.


Your Actual Problem
Feels restricted and prevented from progressing; seeking a solution which will remove these limitations.

In a nut shell it seems to think I needing to make some changes. :P

[Dave Reynolds]

44. It called me a jerk,

just in more words than that.

[steely]

45. Wow - mine seems pretty close.

too close actually,

Thanks!

[Karenina]

46. WHOA...

mine too! :scared: :wow: :hide:

[Kathleen04]

47. Mine does remind me of me

at this pt in time:

Your Existing Situation
Insecure. Seeks roots, stability, emotional security, and an environment providing greater ease and fewer problems.

Your Stress Sources
An existing situation or relationship is unsatisfactory, but she feels unable to improve it without willing cooperation. Unwilling to expose her vulnerability and therefore considers it inadvisable to display affection or to be over-demonstrative. She regards the relationship as a depressing tie but, although she wants to be independent and unhampered, she does not want to risk losing anything. All this leads her to react touchily and with impatience, while the urge to 'get away from it all' results in considerable restlessness. The ability to concentrate may suffer.

Your Restrained Characteristics
Feels she is receiving less than her share, but that she will have to conform and make the best of her situation.
Willing to become emotionally involved as she feels rater isolated and alone. Egocentric and therefore quick to take offense, though she tries to avoid open conflict.

Egocentric and therefore quick to take offense. Able to obtain physical satisfaction from sexual activity but tends to hold aloof emotionally.

Your Desired Objective
Seeks success, stimulation, and a life full of experience. Wants to develop freely and to shake off the shackles of self-doubt, to win, and to live intensely. Likes contacts with others and is enthusiastic by nature. Receptive to anything new, modern, or intriguing; has many interests and wants to expand her fields of activity. Optimistic about the future.

Your Actual Problem
Anxiety and restless dissatisfaction, either with circumstances or with unfulfilled emotional requirements, have produced stress. She tries to escape by intense activity, directed either towards personal success or towards variety of experience.

Your Actual Problem #2
Fights against restriction or limitation, and insists on developing freely as a result of her own efforts.

Edit: A little about my current situation is that I live alone for the summer, my college friends went home to where they're from and I decided to stay here and go to school and work (first job, I need the work experience). I decided to fill my time w/ work and school, because I wanted to keep busy and not become agitated by the boredom and loneliness, which fits into exactly what they wrote as my "actual problem".

[Mutley]

48. Here's my results.

Your Existing Situation
Seeks to express the need for identification in a sensitive and intimate atmosphere where esthetic or emotional delicacy can be protected and nurtured.

Your Stress Sources
The existing situation is disagreeable. Feels lonely and uncertain as she has an unsatisfied need to ally herself with others whose standards are as high as her own, and wants to stand out from the rank and file. This sense of isolation magnifies the need into a compelling urge, all the more upsetting to her self-sufficiency because of the restraint she normally imposes on herself. Since she wants to demonstrate the unique quality of her own character, she tries to suppress this need for others and affects an attitude of unconcerned self-reliance to conceal her fear of inadequacy, treating those who criticize her behavior with contempt. However, beneath this assumption of indifference she really longs for the approval and esteem of others.

Your Restrained Characteristics
Feels listless, hemmed in, and anxious; considers that circumstances and forcing her to restrain her desires. Wants to avoid open conflict with others and to have peace and quiet.
An unadmitted lack of confidence makes her careful to avoid open conflict and she feels she must make the best of things as they are.
Wants to broaden her fields of activity and insists that her hopes and ideas are realistic. Distressed by the fear that she may be prevented from doing what she wants; needs both peaceful conditions and quiet reassurance to restore her confidence.

Your Desired Objective
Urgently in need of rest, relaxation, peace, and affectionate understanding. Feels she has been treated with a lack of consideration and is upset and agitated as a result. Regards her situation as intolerable as long as her requirements are not complied with.

Your Actual Problem
Wants to be valued and respected, and seeks this from a close and peaceful association of mutual esteem.

Your Actual Problem #2
Disappointment at the non-fulfillment of her hopes and the fear that to formulate fresh goals will only lead to further setbacks have resulted in considerable anxiety. She is trying to escape from this into a peaceful and harmonious relationship, protecting her from dissatisfaction and lack of appreciation.

[xmas74]

49. Mine

Your Existing Situation
Not only considers her demands minimal, but also regards them as imperative. Sticks to them stubbornly and will concede nothing.


Your Stress Sources
Is responsive to outside stimuli and wants to experience everything intensely, but is finding the existing situation extremely frustrating. Needs sympathetic understanding and a sense of security. Distressed by her apparently powerlessness to achieve her goals.


Your Restrained Characteristics
Egocentric and therefore quick to take offense, leaving her rather isolated in her attachments.
Feels that she is burdened with more than her fair share of problems. However, she sticks to her goals and tries to overcome her difficulties by being flexible and accommodating.

Very exacting in the standards she applies to her choice of a partner and seeking a rather unrealistic perfection in her sex life.

Able to achieve satisfaction through sexual activity but restless and inclined to be emotionally withdrawn, which prevents her from becoming deeply involved.




Your Desired Objective
Feels she has been unjustly and undeservedly treated and betrayed in her hopes. Disgruntled and in revolt against her existing circumstance which she considers an affront.


Your Actual Problem
Depleted vitality has created an intolerance for any further stimulation, or demands on her resources. A feeling of powerlessness subjects her to agitation, irritation, and acute distress from which she tries to escape by refusing further direct participation. She confines herself to a cautious approach and a concealed determination to get her own way in the end.


Your Actual Problem #2
Needs to protect herself against her tendency to be too trusting, as she finds it is liable to be misunderstood or exploited by others. As a result, she adopts a critical and stand-offish attitude, being willing to participate only where she can be assured of sincerity and trustworthiness.

[Rabrrrrrr]

50. Mine is WAY the hell off

There are a few points of accuracy, which I have bolded. I think this quiz is biased againt people who like dark colors, especially black. I love black, I highly dislike yellow and blue. And I'm still a very hopeful, optimistic person.




Your Existing Situation

The situation is difficult and he is trying to persist in his objectives against resistance. Finds it necessary to conceal his intentions as an added precaution, in order to disarm the opposition. (I always do that!)


Your Stress Sources

Eager to make a good impression, but worried and doubtful about the likelihood of succeeding. Feels that he has a right to anything he might hope for, and becomes helpless and distressed when circumstances go against him. Finds the mere possibility of failure most upsetting and this can even lead to nervous prostration. Sees himself as a 'victim' who has been misled and abused, mistakes this dramatization for reality and tries to convince himself that his failure to achieve standing and recognition is the fault of others. (that is the most utterly wrong point in this thing)


Your Restrained Characteristics

Exacting in his emotional demands and very particular in his choice of partner. The desire for emotional independence prevents any depth of involvement.

Feels that he is receiving less than his share and that there is no one on who he can rely for sympathy and understanding. Pent-up emotions make him quick to take offense, but he realizes that he has to make the best of things as they are.

Egocentric and therefore quick to take offense. Able to achieve satisfaction through sexual activity but tends to hold aloof emotionally.

Able to achieve satisfaction through sexual activity but restless and inclined to be emotionally withdrawn, which prevents him from becoming deeply involved.


Your Desired Objective

Feels the situation is hopeless. Strongly resists things which he finds disagreeable. Tries to shield himself from anything which might irritate him or make him feel more depressed.


Your Actual Problem

Depleted vitality has created an intolerance for any further stimulation, or demands on his resources. This feeling of powerlessness subjects him to agitation and acute distress. He reacts by considering that he has been victimized, and insists--with indignation, resentment, and defiance--on being given his own way. (another utterly wrong point)


Your Actual Problem #2

Disappointment and the fear that there is no point in formulating fresh goals have led to anxiety, emptiness, and an unadmitted self-contempt. His refusal to admit this leads to his adopting a headstrong and defiant attitude. (and yet another utterly wrong point)

[Briarius]

51. interesting!

Your Existing Situation

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


Your Stress Sources

The situation is regarded as threatening or dangerous. Outraged by the thought that he will be unable to achieve his goals and distressed at the feeling of helplessness to remedy this. Over-extended and feels beset, possibly to the point of nervous prostration.


Your Restrained Characteristics

Circumstances are forcing him to compromise, to restrain his demands and hopes, and to forgo for the time being some of the things he wants.

Egocentric and therefore quick to take offense. Sensitive and sentimental, but conceals this from all except those very close to him.


Your Desired Objective

In despair and needs relief of some sort. Wants physical ease, a problem free security, and the chance to recover.


Your Actual Problem

Agitation, unpredictability, and irritation accompanying depleted vitality and intolerance of further demands have all placed him in a position in which he feels menaced by his circumstances. Feeling powerless to remedy this by any action of his own, he is desperately hoping that some solution will provide a way of escape.

[Mojambo]

52. Those colors don't make me feel anything

I'm not sure how to proceed except by picking randomly.

Yeah, okay it kind of thinks I'm an asshole, but it did hit the "actual problem" pretty squarely

Disappointment at the non-fulfillment of his hopes and the fear that to formulate fresh goals will only lead to further setbacks have resulted in considerable anxiety. He tries to escape from this by withdrawing and protecting himself with an attitude of cautious reserve. Moody and depressed.

My only beef is that it tells me that I blame my current circumstance on others, that is complete BS. I place the blame squarely on my very own underperforming shoulders.

[ForrestGump]

54. The most interesting part: I picked the colors in the same order that I

eat M&Ms.

I strongly, strongly suspect this is utter crap.

I took the test again, backwards (picking my least favorite colors first) and thusly supported the hypothesis derived above.

Here's the results from my first run-through, following instructions:

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

My circumstances now are vastly improved over those of a few months ago, but they need to improve further. Sure. Hardly a stretch there, testers. But it's got nothing to do with my self-esteem (that's fine, or not, independent of 'position and prestige.' I have had prestigious positions and it's just not something that drives me, in itself...rather, it's a byproduct of my own drive to be good at what I do and take things to the max for MYSELF. In other words, the gist of this test result is way off.

Your Stress Sources
Feels unappreciated and finds the existing situation threatening. Wants personal recognition and the esteem of others to compensate for the lack of like-minded people with whom to ally himself and make himself more secure. 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; only by not succumbing to them, he feels, can he withstand the difficulties of the situation. Wants to be valued as a desirable associate and admired for his personal qualities.

Some minor hits, but more major misses:

(i) I don't crave personal recognition or the esteem of others...not even

(ii) I don't care about allying myself...at heart I remain asocial and a loner. Not always, but that's the basis of me. I work best alone. I might say yes to the "team player" question in job interviews, but the fact is, was, and likely always will be that I work best alone or with one other person who does not involve themselves in the actual work but in the ancillary logistics and people-stuff.

(iii) my isolation remains intact and I have not merged with another in way too long. And what the hell does "his sensual self-restraint makes it difficult for him to give himself" mean?

(iv) if and when I do merge with some foxy mama, I'm not going to be horrified at the thought. I don't regard it as a depletion of my precious bodily fluids.

(v) "Wants to be valued as a desirable associate and admired for his personal qualities." Go f*** yourself. Of course we all -- or most of us -- would probably want something along those lines, but this thing makes me sound like I crave approval and do whatever I do to garner it. That's as far from the truth of me as you can get, just about. I do not deny that I'd rather be valued as a desirable associate and admired for my personal qualities than be derided as a doofus and scorned for my personal frailties but, c'mon, who (some religious victims aside, of course) wouldn't?

Bottom line: this test does not know me, at least in this category.

Your Restrained Characteristics
Egocentric and therefore quick to take offense. Sensitive and sentimental, but conceals this from all except those very close to him. Circumstances are such that he feels forced to compromise for the time being if he is to avoid being cut off from affection or from full participation.

First sentence: no.

Second sentence: yes, but not always concealed even at first glance.

Third sentence: makes no sense so, on general principle, no.

Your Desired Objective
Desires a tranquil, peaceful state of harmony offering quiet contentment and a sense of belonging.

Gee...how many people would turn this down? Besides, I've got it inside me and I get along very well by myself, with myself. I don't always seem it -- I'm not overtly some Kwai Chang Caine Zen dude whacked out on bliss (or, in David Carradine's example, various illicit substances) -- but I am a pretty calm and tranquil dude most of the time.

Sense of belonging? Belonging where? I belong fine by myself, and anything else -- if I like it -- is a bonus.

Verdict: 50-50, with points off for spouting a generality that most would probably recognize as a goal or desire.

Your Actual Problem
Depleted vitality has created an intolerance for any further stimulation, or demands on his resources. A feeling of powerlessness subjects him to agitation and acute distress. Tries to escape from this by relinquishing the struggle, and by finding peaceful and restful conditions in which to recuperate in an atmosphere of affection and security.

Half and half, but hardly the root of any actual problem I may have right now. I just like to eat M&Ms in a certain order.

Getting my vitality back, anyway -- yeah, it WAS depleted, almost entirely -- in my own way and time. Lots of demands on me, but no powerlessness. I have a Plan B, too, among other plans. Yeah, I pretty much hibernate most of the time when I'm off work, but (a) my work really takes it out of me and (b) I've always had very strong hermitic/reclusive tendencies.

Your Actual Problem #2
Wants to be valued and respected, and seeks this from a close and peaceful association of mutual esteem.

Bullsh**.

In all, this test didn't describe me very well. More misses than hits, that's for sure. I know myself pretty well, and this is not me.

Now, just for flatulence and giggles, let's look at how I fared on the backward test:

Your Existing Situation
Attracted by anything new, modern, or intriguing. Liable to the bored by the humdrum, the ordinary, or the traditional.

Um..nope. As if.

Your Stress Sources
An existing situation or relationship is unsatisfactory, but he feels unable to change it to bring about the sense of belonging which he needs. Unwilling to expose his vulnerability, he therefore continues to resist this state of affairs, but feels dependent on the attachment. This not only depresses him, but makes him irritable and impatient, producing considerable restlessness and the urge to get away from the situation, either actually or, at least, mentally. Ability to concentrate may suffer.

Some of that of late, for sure, but it's not my primary stress. Unfortunately, most of the real stresses in my life lately have stemmed, ultimately, from finances. This includes marital and dissolution-related stresses. As I posted once before, a culmination of these stresses and their extensions may even (worst case) result in me leaving the USA forever, so they're not insignificant...certainly more weighing on me, in the big picture, than the stuff they mention.

The urge to get away certainly sounds familiar, in more ways than one, and my ability to focus took a nosedive at the height of my marital strife.

Your Restrained Characteristics
Circumstances are such that he feels forced to compromise for the time being if he is to avoid being cut off from affection or from full participation. Willing to become emotionally involved as he feels rater isolated and alone. Egocentric and therefore quick to take offense, though he tries to avoid open conflict. Circumstances are forcing him to compromise, to restrain his demands and hopes, and to forgo for the time being some of the things he wants.

Do they call everyone egocentric in these test results? Not much true here except for the last sentence, that's spot on (though another trait that is likely to be widespread).


Your Desired Objective
Has a powerful drive towards sensuousness.

Very passionate, for sure, but good at repressing aspects of that passion and sublimating them...just as well, really. Maybe bad for me, and sometimes it gets too much for me but, hey, we all have our crosses.

So this one's true, but I'm not sure if it's a prime objective. Maybe it is, because I'm in the least logically-delineated period of my life: for the first time, I have no (well, little) idea what I am doing or where I'm going. Refreshing and scary at the same time, like traveling the hard way always is.

Your Actual Problem
Anxiety and a restless dissatisfaction, either with circumstances or with unfulfilled emotional needs, have produced considerable stress. He tries to escape from these into a conflict-free security in which he can relax and recover.

Well, duh...this'd be my room. Probably, again, not unique to some extent or another.

In sum, I did better on the test that I took 'backward' -- in other words, I am closer to being the inverse of myself than I am myself, in the universe of this test. As with many such things, answers are generalized enough (or so widely applicable as to be almost universal) that more people will recognize them as being aspects of their character than will not. We also tend to skip over the bits that don't apply. On top of that, that their target audience is likely to share some commonalities (likely urban, Western, and -- duh -- using a computer) enhances the likelihood that some points will ring true very widely, especially stuff like "I'm tired," "I'm overwhelmed," and "I'm dissatisfied." Finally, you've got to know yourself (or believe yourself to) to evaluate the test's effectiveness, otherwise you'll discount the results offhand...here we have a nice little Catch-22, n'est ce pas?

Paint me not convinced of the in-depth diagnostic ramifications of picking favorite colors.

[BlueIris]

55. OK, now some doubt has finally crept in.

I had a somewhat major change in life circumstances today, filling me with rage and hatred for others. So, I took the color test again, and instead of listing me as a future unabomber or something, it said this:

Your Existing Situation
Sensuous. Inclined to luxuriate in the things which give gratification to the senses, but rejects anything tasteless, vulgar, or coarse.

Your Stress Sources
Unfulfilled expectations have led to uncertainly and an apprehensive watchfulness. Badly needs to feel secure and protected against further disappointment, being passed over, or losing standing and prestige. Doubtful that things will be any better in the future, but inclined nevertheless to make exaggerated demands or reject compromise.

Your Restrained Characteristics
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
Seeks affectionate, satisfying and harmonious relationships. Desires an intimate union, in which there is a love, self-sacrifice and mutual trust.

Your Actual Problem:
Needs to achieve a stable and peaceful condition, enabling her to free herself of the worry that she may be prevented from achieving all the things she wants.

'Kay. I was thinking the results were somehow going to jibe with my intense rage regarding my disgusting, piece of shit ex-boyfriend, the one who thought I was useless to him after he found out I was no longer going to be able to provide him with future copies of himself. Shouldn't the wonderful color test have picked up on how much I despise him (and myself for staying with him) after realizing he views women as little more than objects to masturbate with, never intends to take responsbility for any damage he does to anyone's--especially any "partner"'s--life, and will fill the world with pain after he finds a braindead, self-esteemless hag to squeeze out his bastard, idiot, overly corpulent children, laughing as doctors, hormones and breeding destroy her body, just so he can send pictures of his offspring to his bigoted parents, feel perversely proud of his life's "accomplishments," while pretending to be asleep all those long nights "his" babies are crying? Shouldn't the color test have picked up on that? No? Well, I guess you can't have everything.

[bridgit]

57. Readily participates in things that provide...

excitement or stimulation. Wants to feel exhilarated.

Wants to overcome a feeling of emptiness and of separation from others. Believes that life still has far more to offer and that she may miss her share of experiences if she fails to make the best use of every opportunity. She therefore pursues her objectives with a fierce intensity and commits herself deeply and readily. Feels herself to be completely competent in any field in which she engages, and can sometimes be considered by others to be interfering or meddlesome.

:shrug:
