Wilbur understands Wilbur better

To know thyself is the beginning of wisdom.
Socrates
This could explain why I can be a jerk to some...
  • You are strong-willed and self-confident. You are genuine. You like the motto 'what you see is what you get'. You appreciate people who are not afraid to stand up for what they believe in, and who do not pretend be something they are not.
  • You are sensitive to the emotional currents of others, yet you understand that people are responsible for their own happiness. You recognize that it is important to take time for yourself, and that it is not possible to please everyone.
  • You say what you feel. People may sometimes consider your actions insensitive, but you feel that you are doing them a favour by remaining authentic. If you find your friend's haircut to be bad, and that friend asks for your opinion, you will tell him or her you find the haircut to be bad.

Reaffirmation for those who already know me ;)

  • You are an explorer. You have broad interests, are curious and unconventional, welcome change, appreciate new approaches, and would generally be perceived as liberal.
  • You do not have rigid views about right and wrong, appropriate and inappropriate. You have a preference for novel, unfamiliar activities rather than traditional, practical activities, norms or conventions.
  • You have a rebellious side.

Part of the real me revealed...

  • Your mix between the traits of introversion and extroversion creates an interesting situation: extroverts tend to be more naturally active, expressive, social, and interested in many things, whereas introverts tend to be more reserved, reflective, private, and interested in fewer interactions, but with greater depth and focus. You manifest both tendencies and often waiver between the two, often for weeks at a time. This makes you interesting and unpredictable to many people.
  • While you do have a social side, being around large groups of people tends to reduce your energy reserves over time. You recover energy best by spending some time alone, by having space either physically or mentally. Many people are afraid of silence and of self-reflection. You are not.
  • You are observant and perceptive, viewing the world with a quiet understanding. Being so intensively observant of one's self and of others is often an automatic response - you do it without effort or intention. Your sensitivity to many stimuli, then, makes it that you need / prefer to limit your interactions, especially social. You are likely to have a select, small number of friends that you know well, rather than a large amount of acquaintances that you know only superficially.
  • You are comfortable exchanging emotional information and you are not afraid of commitment when the person is right for you. A problem might be that you have a soft spot for partners, friends, and colleagues who have a slightly avoidant or anxious attachment style. You like the challenge and the excitement of a person who seems a little distant or difficult, but this creates hard work for you in the end. It's important to you that people are warm and open regarding emotions, but not too open, complicated, or clingy.

Explanation to my rolex luvin' dragon

  • Those high in openess spend much of their income on clothing, travels, and entertainment, rather than saving or investing.
  • You can sometimes become 'caught up' by the moment- carried away by a feeling or impression. For example, if you go shopping, you may sometimes become inspired to buy things that you don't need, simply because it 'feels' like something you need at the time. Later, after putting some thought into the matter, you may realize that what you bought was not exactly the item that you needed or wanted.
  • Only child are in many ways similar to oldest child when it comes to family roles. The hopes and dreams of their parents fall on their shoulders already at a young age. Since they get more practice at interacting with adults than with other same-aged children, only child tend to be very strong-willed and determined, but not very concerned about keeping harmony. Main issue: They don't want to be dependent on anyone. Only children are self-contained units. You will recognize them by their lack of fear and their self-reliance. Positives: Only children are passionate and determined. Negatives: they are used to getting their way. They find it hard to compromise.
