We Can Tell You Who You Are In 12 Questions

Though you’re not loud about your beliefs, you’ll still go to great lengths to defend them. Once you’ve decided how you feel about something, it takes a lot for you to turn you away from it. This strength of will and devotion to people and ideas draws the admiration of many. However, you can sometimes be so set in your ways that you find it difficult to see eye to eye with others. For the most part, this doesn’t take away your ability to connect with the people you care about.

You’re quietly opinionated with a strong moral compass

Though you don’t often seek it, you tend to find yourself in leadership positions because of your charismatic nature and dedication to understanding others. You approach your relationships with a sense of empathy, and quickly gain the trust of others because of it. Occasionally, you become so invested in your relationships that you forget to take care of yourself, and because you come off as so confident, people don’t realize you sometimes need the same encouragement you give others.

You’re an unexpected leader with a tendency to forego your needs for others

Whether it’s with a career, a city, or a relationship, you tend to fantasize about what you want next. You harbor a deep fear of settling down and becoming “boring," so you try to do everything in your power to keep that from happening. Because you’re so intent on trying as many new things as possible, you sometimes struggle to follow through with everything you set out to do. Not to worry, though. Your passion and energy means you’re living a fuller life than most.

You’re a carefree, restless spirit

You appreciate order. In fact, you don’t just appreciate it, you take great pride in it. You like logic and structure, and you enjoy the company of people who abide by the rules and follow through. Nothing gets under your skin like flakiness, which is why you sometimes prefer solitude to being around others. It’s not that you don’t like people, it’s just you have a low tolerance for those who aren’t as honest and straightforward as you are. The people who get that know that you can be a deeply compassionate friend, and those who don’t? Well...it’s their loss.

You’re a proud pragmatist

You thrive when you get to help others. You’re reliable, loyal, and unwavering in your affections, especially when it comes to those less fortunate than yourself. When people need someone, they know you’ll be among the first to show up on their doorstep with compassionate words and a shoulder to lean on. Sometimes these relationships can be a little one-sided, with you giving more than you receive. You usually don’t mind, though — you’re great at caring for those who need it, which is why you should be the one to do it.

You’re a selfless nurturer who likes to be in control

Things don’t have to be disorganized and messy! There’s a reason why people plan! You just like it when everything goes smoothly, and if it doesn’t, you’re the person to step in and fix it. Your tendency to plan seeps into your career, relationships, and living situation because you want to put yourself in the best position possible to reach all of your goals. You know that structure and hard work is what it takes to get ahead. As you see it, there’s no point in idealizing when you can start moving forward now.

You’re a classic go-getter doing everything possible to achieve your dreams

To you, everything is like a game of chess. Whether it’s through the relationships you form, or the big life decisions you make, you’re always thinking several steps ahead of everyone else. You’re rarely satisfied with things as they are, and you’re constantly looking for ways to improve yourself or the things around you. Problems that arise are usually just opportunities that you’re eager to tackle. Sometimes this love of order can get in the way of you forging connections with others, but for the most part, it’s something people learn to appreciate.

You’re a relentless strategizer who loves to solve problems

You have a bit of a ‘mad scientist’ persona about you. You love sinking hours and hours into your passions, and you’re more than willing to forego basic, everyday tasks to do so (tidying your room, matching your socks, etc.). A slightly disheveled lifestyle is more than worth you dedicating time to the things you love. To others, you come across as brilliant and quirky, and though you tend to keep your perspectives and ideas private, when you give people a glimpse, your voice is always valued for its unique viewpoint.

You’re tirelessly curious and a tad bit...unconventional

Interesting, right? Unsurprisingly, you’re a really hard person to pin down. You’re ruthlessly observant of your environment, and you enjoy logic, order, and practicality. You commit yourself fully to everything you do with ruthless ambition, and you prefer to work alone because you know that you’ll do it best. That being said, you love hands-on experiments and believe fully in trial and error. Your devotion to establishing rules doesn’t get in the way of you letting loose and trying new and crazy things every now and then.

You’re a spontaneous perfectionist with a surprising penchant for adventure

You have all of the makings of a great leader if you aren’t one already. Direct and charismatic, you exude the type of confidence that people gravitate toward. You believe in doing things well and doing things right, and you have little patience for unnecessary mistakes or people who won’t see things your way. Though you sometimes struggle to be flexible, people know they can rely on you to speak your mind and be assertive when the moment calls for it.

You're witty and decisive with an air of confidence

Having a quick mind and a way with words makes for an impressive, and sometimes dangerous, combo. You prefer getting to know people through banter, and you’ve probably found that many struggle to keep pace with your quick wit. Rules and limits are boring, so you thrive off of challenging the status quo. You would rather think and speak boldly than be hampered with mundane, nitty-gritty details. Just remember: if you want to make grand promises, try your best to follow through!

You’re clever and creative with a love of challenging the status quo

You have a deep desire to understand the world around you. You want to know why people feel the way they do, and why they think the way they think. Because of your genuine interest in people, you tend to form rich relationships. You’re constantly asking questions and you believe in trying everything for yourself at least once, even if it’s something that gets your adrenaline going. You understand things and people much better in real life as opposed to behind a screen, and you do everything you can to have tangible experiences.

You're enthusiastically curious with a genuine interest in people

You have a heightened awareness of the world around you. You appreciate beauty in all its forms and you seek to surround yourself with it, whether it’s through music, art, dance, or other forms of expression. Your heightened sensitivity means that you internalize emotions on an intense level, and you’re often deeply affected by your own feelings and the feelings of others. Chances are, you tend to turn to creative expression to process the world around and within you.

You’re intensely aware of all that makes the world beautiful

When you want something, you don’t ask questions, you just go for it. There are no frills in the way you approach life — you don’t believe in schmoozing or sweet-talking, you believe in rolling your sleeves up and getting your hands dirty. When it comes to your relationships, you can sometimes be a little blunt, but most people appreciate your tell-it-as-it-is nature. If it hasn’t already, your down to earth attitude will earn you meaningful relationships and loyal friends throughout your life.

You're laid-back and honest with a desire to stay true to yourself

There’s a good chance you were the class clown at some point. You’re outspoken and witty, and you love to feed off of the energy of the crowd when they’re willing to lend it to you. You can be a little spontaneous, foregoing an appropriate time and place to bust out your true self whenever the moment strikes. Because you always want to try and do new things, you do have a tendency to get bored by repetition or activities that have no immediate payoff. Also, you’re very thrilling to be around and very easy to hold a conversation with.

You're the classic life of the party that everyone wants to be around

When people glance your way, there’s a good chance they’ll catch you daydreaming. You spend a lot of time in your own head, and though you can construct grandiose ideas and passion projects with ease, you often forsake the smaller details to dream a little bigger. You want to see the best in people and situations, which can unfortunately allow others to take advantage of you. Regardless, most people know to appreciate you for being an impressive creative force and source of inspiration.

You’re a passionate idealist with a love of creating
