on my johari [a personality inventory/quiz, mainly positive but a few people have chosen the most negative characteristics they could find in the list of traits to describe me

Eh, I think it's some random joker trying to mess with you. You always seem pretty well-balanced and evolved to me.

I guess if I had to say anything about a blind spot in your personality it would be that you may not be skeptical enough of other people - that you may not appreciate your own mastery to the extent you project on others. Nothing wrong with that really, just from my cynical old perspective it seems that most everyone is actually full of shit most of the time.

thanks man. odd how you pick up the blind spot from reading my journal. any specific entries/instances that reveal this? or is it in general, the way i write?

[igferatu]

oh, I dunno, I may be talking completely out of my ass. I guess the Nohari post made me think that you were giving this person who you don't know a degree of unearned credibility, and that it seemed familiar from a post or two in the past.

Again, I'm not convinced it's at all a bad thing, it seems more refreshing to me than anything else and it may confer upon you a kind of protection. People who otherwise could be dangerous to you may be disarmed by being given the benefit of the doubt - which allows you to maybe learn deeper truths from them. If it is a blind spot, it seems to be working for you.

not that i know you THAT well, but i would only maybe have thought overdramatic out of what ruadhan had chosen - & even then, i would not think it in a bad way. maybe because i'm overdramatic myself, & don't really see it as a bad trait (unless it starts fights & things). i especially wouldn't think you were insensitive. i mean, your entire journal shows that you are just the opposite.

thank you, that really helped. nothing wrong with being yourself, it aint hurting anyone! XD

Smug and selfish are bad things? Dammit, I knew there must be a reason I don't have any friends.

Oh yeah... I found your journal through fang_uk, saw you were coming to my neck of the woods, noticed a lot of similar interests, got a little OCD reading your page, and decided to stalk you.

And before your paranoia flares up again, no, I'm not Rob/Raudhan either.
