I'm a two

Boredom + Me = possibility of a bad combination.

The other day I was bored and procrastinating my some homework and came across a personality test online.  I figured "what the heck, might as well" and came across some interesting results.  

The test was the 9 Types personality test. 

It puts you in one of nine categories:

Type 1: The Reformer

Type 2: The Helper

Type 3: The Achiever

Type 4: The Individualist

Type 5: The Investigator

Type 6: The Loyalist

Type 7: The Enthusiast

Type 8: The Challenger

Type 9: The Peacemaker 

I tested as a 2, The Helper. Helpers are warm, concerned, nurturing, and sensitive to other people's needs. 

(all info came from here)

How to Get Along with Me

Tell me that you appreciate me. Be specific.

Share fun times with me.

Take an interest in my problems, though I will probably try to focus on yours.

Let me know that I am important and special to you.

Be gentle if you decide to criticize me.

What I Like About Being a Two

being able to relate easily to people and to make friends

knowing what people need and being able to make their lives better

being generous, caring, and warm

being sensitive to and perceptive about others' feelings

being enthusiastic and fun-loving, and having a good sense of humor

What's Hard About Being a Two

not being able to say no

having low self-esteem

feeling drained from overdoing for others

not doing things I really like to do for myself for fear of being selfish

criticizing myself for not feeling as loving as I think I should

being upset that others don't tune in to me as much as I tume in to them

working so hard to be tactful and considerate that I suppress my real feelings

Twos as Children Often

are very sensitive to disapproval and criticism

try hard to please their parents by being helpful and understanding

are outwardly compliant

are popular or try to be popular with other children

act coy, precocious, or dramatic in order to get attention

Twos as Parents

are good listeners, love their children unconditionally 

are warm and encouraging (or suffer guilt if they aren't)

are often playful with their children

wonder: "Am I doing it right?" "Am I giving enough?" 

can become fiercely protective

I agree with most of the descriptions and disagree with a few, but I think it does well describing parts of who I am.  My secondary type was 8: The Challenger with a close tie to 9: The Peacemaker.  

Take the test here and let me know what type you test out to be! 

It could be interesting  ;)
