I’m also usually calm and understanding in stressful situations because complaining or arguing will only make the situation worst. Usually when someone in my family wants to borrow money they come to me first because I almost never say no even if it’s my last. I strongly have a problem with saying no I feel like I am suppose to be there when someone I care about is in need. I never do things for people looking for them to return the favor. Most of the time people don’t treat you like you treat them and act like they forgot about what you did for them. I don’t let situations like that bother me or change who I am as a person. A lot of people might judge me from my hard exterior or the fact that I am quiet at times. But after they get know me most people always want to be around me. I also presented my girlfriend with this analysis and let her test me, she gave me a score of 41 so it has to be somewhat
