Are you an open book or a locked treasure chest?

This Quiz Will Tell You How You Communicate

You make bonds quickly and will share personal truths easily. You don't mind looking vulnerable and making fun of yourself, and you will often do it to make others feel more comfortable. You're not good at awkward silences and will always try to fill them. You're a great verbal communicator, but sometimes forget to think before you speak.

You open up easily and like to fill silence

You like to show physical affection to those you love. You sleep best when you're spooning and like to cuddle while watching TV. You probably come from a close family that fixed everything with a hug. You take time to make good friendships and aren't the best at small talk, but you're a loyal friend and you definitely give the best hugs.

You show your affection by touch, but struggle to communicate your feelings

You're a great problem solver and like to believe that everything has a logical solution, but when you're confronted with a more emotional problem you can struggle to find an answer. You like to bond over shared interests and can talk for hours about your favourite films or music. You tend to only talk about more personal stuff with your few close friends.

You're a great explainer, but sometimes struggle to understand your own emotions

You're an excellent storyteller, and are happiest when you're making your friends laugh. You have a quick wit, but you also know when to take things more seriously. Most of the time you're quite a socially confident person but you often find yourself regretting saying things, or feeling awkward around certain individuals. You're slow to open up at first, but when you get to know someone you'll happily share your true feelings.

You're a creative communicator, but sometimes second guess yourself

You're a very caring person, and feel the need to protect the people you love. When someone is down you'll offer to go over and cook them a meal, and you'll suggest you watch a funny film together to cheer them up. But you often feel lost for words when someone asks for advice, and you never know what to say when someone cries. When you're in a good mood you're a very sociable person, but you prefer to be alone, or only with a very close friend.

You show how you feel with actions, but find it hard to articulate their meaning

You're quick to make friends and when you're in a good mood you can work the room at a party. You're a creative storyteller with a great imagination. You have a quick wit, and even when you're feeling down you'll be funny about it. You use sarcasm a lot, and it's how you feel most comfortable expressing yourself. There are very few people who you would sincerely go to with a problem, and even then you'd probably make them laugh without trying.

You make people feel comfortable with humour, but are reluctant to bring up serious issues

You're the ultimate text over call kind of person. And many of your most serious conversations have been conducted over text or messenger. You can feel close to people that you've only ever met online, but find it hard to speak up in large crowds. If you have something serious to say to someone you'd much prefer to write it in a letter, and if you have to have a big conversation you'll rehearse it in your head first. You're not close to many people, but those that you are close to you feel like you could say anything to.

You find it easy to write down your feelings, but struggle to say them out loud

You're very likeable and make friends quickly. But there are only a few people who you would go to with an actual problem. You could hang out with someone everyday and they would think they were your best friend, but there would be some things about yourself you'd be holding back. You're very funny and have a quick wit, but often use sarcasm to make light of what you're really feeling.

You're very charismatic, but struggle to show your true self

You're a great friend who can listen to what someone means even if it's not what they're saying. You can see when someone is just making a joke, and when they're using sarcasm to make light of an actual problem. You're very caring and give great advice, but when it comes to dealing with your own problems you're not so perceptive. You have a great understanding of people, but you can feel awkward talking about yourself and will brush over major feelings. You're keen to direct the attention away from yourself in most situations and aren't particularly confident when it comes to public speaking. But when you're with a friend you really trust they can get you to open up.

You're an excellent listener, but sometimes struggle to speak up
