Hmm, fairly accurate. But then other people probably know more about me than I'd be prepared to admit. Even if they're just doing funny tests with colours.

What are you talking about fridge? Where?

Admittedly, on trying different combinations, the results seem to be consistently quite negative. Shame. I thought if I went for all the lighter colours it would tell me I had a sunny disposition. But no, apparently choosing lighter colours means you can't be arsed with anything apart from having sex! Hmm...

Okay, sorry, the person who wrote this damn thing has a grudge against humanity. Everything in it is horribly harsh and judgemental.

I present for your perusal:

Your Existing Situation
Avoids excessive effort and needs roots, security, and peaceful companionship. May be physically unwell, in need of gentle handling and considerate treatment.


Um, yeah, like every human being alive, then I guess...

Your Stress Sources
Eager to make a good impression, but worried and doubtful about the likelihood of succeeding. Feels that he has a right to anything he might hope for, and becomes helpless and distressed when circumstances go against him. Finds the mere possibility of failure most upsetting and this can even lead to nervous prostration. Sees himself as a 'victim' who has been misled and abused, mistakes this dramatization for reality and tries to convince himself that his failure to achieve standing and recognition is the fault of others.


This is just wrong. But it's so plausibly written that I believed it for a while.

Your Restrained Characteristics
Circumstances are forcing him to compromise, to restrain his demands and hopes, and to forgo for the time being some of the things he wants.
Conditions are such that he will not let himself become intimately involved without making mental reservations


How did they know that I'd given up hope of being a male model or an astronaut? God these people are smart... And, really, am I cautious about getting involved with people? Does that make me repressed, or just smart? Arseholes.

Your Desired Objective
Desires protection against anything which might exhaust or tire him. Seeks a life of security and physical ease, free from any problem or disturbance.


Which must be why this test annoyed me so much.

Your Actual Problem
Disappointment at the non-fulfillment of his hopes and the fear that to formulate fresh goals will only lead to further setbacks have resulted in considerable anxiety. He tries to escape from this by withdrawing and protecting himself with an attitude of cautious reserve. Moody and depressed.


TotalWoman.com, you are so correct. But I guess if I tick the right box you'll send me some spam email about something I can buy to make me feel better, huh?

Your Actual Problem #2
Depleted vitality has created an intolerance for any further stimulation, or demands on his resources. A feeling of powerlessness subjects him to agitation, irritation, and acute distress from which he tries to escape by refusing further direct participation. He confines himself to a cautious approach and a concealed determination to get his own way in the end.

So in other words, you're a bitchy, overcaffeinated drama queen. If the shoe fits, dearie...

Able to achieve satisfaction through sexual activity providing no turmoil or emotional agitation is involved.

HuH?!?!

What, like most people? Christ, am I in a minority in not wanting to be screaming at my partner during sex?

Able to achieve satisfaction through sexual activity... pure comedy.

That's like me saying:

Able to lessen hunger by consuming edible substances.

I'm with you on this, it's just so negative, the person doing it needs to get a grip and maybe stop writing about hirself?!?



Works well in cooperation with others but is disinclined to take the leading role. Needs a personal life of mutual understanding and freedom from discord.

Feels that life has far more to offer and that there are still important things to be achieved--that life must be experienced to the fullest. As a result, he pursues his objectives with a fierce intensity that will not let go of things. Becomes deeply involved and runs the risk of being unable to view things with sufficient objectivity, or calmly enough; is therefore in danger of becoming agitated and of exhausting his nervous energy. Cannot leave things alone and feels he can only be at peace when he has finally reached his goal.

Feels that he cannot do much about his existing problems and difficulties and that he must make the best of things as they are. Able to achieve satisfaction through sexual activity.

Clings to his belief that his hopes and ideas are realistic, but needs encouragement and reassurance. Applies very exacting standards to his choice of a partner and wants guarantees against loss or disappointment.
Feels that things stand in his way, that circumstances are forcing him to compromise and forgo some pleasures for the time being.

Needs to feel identified with someone or something and wishes to win support by his charm and amiability. Sentimental and yearns for a romantic tenderness.

Has a fear that he might be prevented from achieving the things he wants. This leads him to employ great personal charm in his dealings with others, hoping that this will make it easier for him to reach his objectives.

His natural ability to examine everything with critical discrimination has been distorted into an attitude of harsh disapproval, which opposes and denigrates without regard to the real facts.

Well he knows his audience, this guy, if nothing else.

Mine was distinctly uncannily accurate.
Not sure how that reflects on the test itself, though...

I did this twice, first time round attempting to take it seriously, the second time not, and it didn't seem to make any real difference. So, y'know, ok, I'm sensitive, a loser, probably have much the same mindset as Adolf Hitler did, before he went on to do all those dreadful things, but then I knew that already. Is there any colour combination whereby you actually come out as a " winner " ? I'm guessing not, but, uh... oh fuck it whatever, I suppose I'll give it a try

It's as I suspected. Doesn't matter what colours you pick, you're still going to get the same kind of general analysis.
