well, what do you know? I got patient pleaser too...either there is a self selection process (only the easily swaryed and malleable are taking the test) or that is the default. To me, both the situations and the options sounded far more trite and petty than I care to live my life.





Besides...if i am so pleasingly patient...how come there is not anyone to be patient WITH??

I got patient pleaser as well. I suspect it is because the options were a bit ''out there'' for me to choose, so I chose the best one of what there was. Or maybe I am too easy to get along with?

The same for me. I agree that there wasn't always a true answer for me. I was a mix of a lot of the answers, sohad to choose the one that more resembled me but made me seem more of a push over.

I was labeled as a 'Patient Pleaser' also. Although I am a very patient individual, I am also a Gemini. Sometimes, (not too often!) I find myself in the 'I want what I want, when I want it !' category ! As for the 'Pleaser' part of it; I can't fully agree with it. I will often put my significant others wishes before my own. But, in all honesty, in many of these cases, I simply didn't have any personal preferences, objectives, or aspirations. I am USUALLY very easy to please. But, on those occasions where I do have wishes or demands of my own, I can be kinda stubborn.

Look at it this way - at least you are unique - the rest of us seemed to cop juggler or pleaser.


And I'm far from a reformed drama queen - let me tell you, people who are orphaned at 15 don't have the damn TIME or resources to be drama queens!
