OVER 60. Other people see you someone they should “handle with care’ – self controlled and extremely dominant. They may admire you and theycould be more like you, but they don’t always trust you and hesitate to become too deeply involved with you.

FROM 51 TO 60. Your friends see you as an exciting, rather impulsive person, changing easily from one mood or interest to another: a natural leader, quick to make decisions (not always the right ones). They see you as bold and venturesome, someone who takes a chance and enjoys an adventure. They like to be in your company because of the excitement (зд. волнение) you radiate (зд. излучать).

FROM 41 TO 50. Others see you as fresh, lively, charming, amusing, and always interesting, someone who is constantly the center of attention, but sufficiently balanced and not to let it go to your head. They also see you as considorate and understanding, someone who will cheer them up (to cheer up – зд. ободрять, утешать) or help them out (to help out – зд. помочь выйти из …) as the situation requires.

FROM 31 TO 40. Other people see you as sensible, cautious, careful and practical. They see you as clever, gifted but modest, not a person who makes friends too quickly or too easily, but someone who is extremely loyal to the friends and who expects the same loyalty in return. Those who really get to know you realize that it takes a lot to shake your trust in your friends, but equally, it takes you along time to get over it if the trust is shaken.

FROM 21 TO 30. Your friends see you as meticulous (зд. щепетильный) and painstaking (зд. усердный), perhaps a bit too fussy (зд. суетливый) at times, ultra-careful and ultra-caution. It would surprise them greatly if you were ever to do something on impulse. They expect you to examine everything very carefully from every side possible and then, usually, decide against it. This sort of reaction is to your careful nature and partly due to your laziness (зд. лень).

under 21. Youare seen to be shy, modest and indecisive, someone who needs to be looked after, who always leaves it to someone else to make decisions and prefers never to get too involved with anyone or anything. You worry when there’s nothing to worry about and see problems which don’t exist. Some people tend to regard you as dull (зд. скучный) and boring (зд. занудный, докучливый), and only your close friends know that you are not boring. The trouble is that you let very few people get close to you.
