So, I was asked the other day to describe myself in 15 words, no phrases, things I find positive and negative. They have to blend physical, mental and emotional.
And it was hard.
In no order of importance...
1. Intelligent
2. Humorous
3. Cute-ish
4. Empathetic
5. Stubborn
6. Adventurous
7. Opinionated
8. Creative
9. Independent
10. Passionate
11. Flexible
12. Romantic
13. Curious
14. Responsible
15. Child-like
I had to really start to stretch for stuff after number 13. If I had to go to 20 I would have been screwed. lol
Thought it would be interesting to see how others view themselves.

Not sure if it's cheating to use my profession, which encompasses a lot of adjective-type traits.
very interesting how many lists include seemingly opposite traits, such as stubborn/flexible and closed/openminded, which if you think about them enough are not inconsistent. I'm glad to see that, as I've always thought that makes me weird.

I like the dichotomies alot though. Makes us each a mystery
And now that I have read others, I think I could get to 20 because I didn't think of things like I am emotional, affectionate, insecure, demanding, open minded, driven, etc...
I agree, someone else prolly could have spit mine out in a minute.
In fact, one of my friends described me as surreal.
I think it is one of the best compliments I have ever gotten.

Thanks so much for all that. I think everyone is all of those things in one way or another, it's just the ratio that makes us different.
I will do a proper list for you ASAP.

I do! I said I am cutish and flexible, though flexible kind of covers my personality too, so it was getting two for the price of one!
I agree FNF. I was surprised to find that I think I am a fairly well balanced person. I keep adding to my list here at home and I realized that the "negatives" I can live with, because they aren't always so bad, or the areas where I need work I look forward to working on. Not bad at all me thinks.
Some people are also coming up with really great adjectives and view points and so I am learning lots about others, and how they see themselves. Which is really nice. Thanks so much all!
FF, excessive? Me? Gee, what do you think I am, American or something?

Did anyone else notice that wRectiphy has "murderous" as one of the descriptions?
That and I love that Phaerie has both selfish and selfless. That is so very real and true I think.
Nope FNF. All from my head, which is why it was so damn hard for me to find all the correct words! lol
