The Household COO

In spite of the incredible silliness of some of these quizzes, I don’t know why I find myself curious to try them and discover my “type” even if some of the answers to the questions don’t fit me at all.

You Follow Your Head

You’re rational, collected, and logical. Generally, it takes you quite a while to fall in love. In fact, you’ve even been accused of being very picky. While you’re cool, you’re not ice cold.You just know what you want, and don’t mind waiting to get it.

After rewriting the about page for this blog, I thought it was high time I re-evaluated my alpha female-ness and took a quiz to find out. Turns out I am not that much better…

You Have Many Alpha Tendencies

You’re not a total alpha female, but you certainly know how to - and like to - get your way. You’re forceful without being intimidating. You’re confident without being vain. A perfect mix.

Although there appears to be a rather contrary definition to what an alpha female really is, I tend to think she is the epitome of the undomestic goddess - driven for success but hopeless with wifely and motherly duties. She’s powerful, confident and intimidating to men. She flirts but never takes relationships seriously. She focussed, self-absorbed, and unrelenting - it’s her way or the highway. She cold and aloof and she doesn’t care what people think about her. She’s an individual and she enjoys her difference. She seeks to break the mould of society and is comfortable in her own skin.

How could I resist doing this test when I’m such a big fan?  I certainly wouldn’t mind having the ability to heal…

You are Claire. You’re naive and still getting used to your abilities. Some more experience and assertiveness would be good for you.

Saw this quiz on my BFF’s blog and decided to give it a whirl to see who I would be if I were an action hero…

Which Female Action Hero Are You?

You are part Wonder Woman. You have a powerful and strong personality, and you use your persuasiveness and wisdom to keep firm control over your world. You are hard to break.

You are part Princess Leia. You are down-to-earth and stick to a rigid sense of ethics. Nerds may lust over you, but everyone looks to you for your grounded logic and intellect.

After getting typed again for my Myers-Briggs personality, I discovered an interesting site that you can use to determine to suitability of your companion to yourself based on the Jung-Myers-Briggs personality type.

So if you’re married and curious or single and wondering, you might want to check it out:

Jung Marriage Test

Unfortunately, it’s not free, though.  It costs $5 to check your compatibility.  Then again, what’s $5 to a lifetime of happiness, no? 

It’s also worth noting that if you’re already in a relationship, you can still encourage longevity in your relationship by understanding your partner’s personality type and learning how best to communicate with each other.  When my cousin typed me and the hubby, she also gave me a sheet that suggests how best to speak to someone of my hubby’s personality type. 

A further understanding of the Myers-Briggs Personality Types demonstrates the root of many of our fights - a lack of understanding of how the other thinks and communicates.
