ADD UP ALL YOUR A'S, B'S, AND C'S...
Mostly A's...You're a COMPROMISER
You're naturally peaceable and don't like making a fuss about anything. Although you like your individuality, you don't like to draw attention to yourself and so you will more or less go along with what the majority wants, although your kind nature means that you sometimes find yourself drawing back from situations you're uncomfortable with. You want to please everyone and yourself, but unfortunately you need to learn that's not possible. You're halfway there...have a little more courage sometimes and you'll soon find you'll be much, much happier.
Mostly B's....You're a REBEL
You hate conformity and will always do what makes you happy, even if others laugh at you for it. You're strong natured and have a strong sense of your own identity and individuality. Secretly people admire you for not caring what others think and doing what you believe is right. Good on you.
Mostly C's....You're a PLEASER
You want badly to fit in and be accepted and so you always do what others believe is right, even in situations you're not comfortable with. You need to relax a little! You'll be much happier once you form your own identity and you realize that you lead your own life and everyone else leads theirs. Let your individuality shine through and you'll sparkle.
