Sometimes, your actions and reactions leave your friends and family wondering if you have a heart. We know you do, but it wouldn’t hurt to show your feelings once in a while. It could be that you’re private or don’t like to show your emotions in public, but doing so can help people to feel closer to you.
a bit of a clod
The good news first: Your actions are genuine and from the heart. The bad news is that you may not stop to consider how your words and actions affect others, and you may hurt people from time to time without knowing. Taking a few seconds to think about how you make others feel may go a long way towards improving your relationship.
practical
You reason for that every problem out there, there is a solution. You don’t waste time dwelling on what is, and going over problems that can’t be fixed. Instead, you try to find a solution to that problem, and keep moving forward. Friends come to you when they need something fixed. By the way, are you by chance a man?
sympathetic
People love you because you are an excellent listener. You can commiserate with the best of them, and offer gentle advice. Sometimes, it’s even good advice. You’re a nice person at heart and probably have a lot of friends. Make sure you don’t take on more problems than you can handle.
ultra-sensitive
You’re constantly teary. You cry at pet funerals, movies, long-distance phone commercials, and when other people have problems. Don’t take so many burdens to heart, or you’ll have to take out stock in facial tissue.
