I've shed a fair amount of the "Narcissistic" traits instilled in me from loving parenting. Apparently the rest of the world isn't as impressed with me as my mother is :smile:.

Ha! Awesome. I lead in authority, which makes sense since I'm an Army officer. I'm surprised I didn't get more in the self-sufficient category since I do most things on my own; I must have not liked the wording. And as for vanity, who seriously looks at themselves in the mirror?

I believe such quizzes are 'intelligently' designed to help you choose what you want to hear about yourself.

Interesting. I was an air force engineering officer for 16 years.

And as for vanity, who seriously looks at themselves in the mirror?

I take it you are both male and single? :smile:

I thought that having only two polarized choices was ridiculous. I couldn't finish because there were too many questions where choosing either pole would have been inaccurate.

Agreed. Most notably,

"I will be a success"

vs

"I am not too concerned about success"

What if, hypothetically, I'm concerned about success but am unlikely to be successful?

Then you're a dangerous Narcissistic lol.

Unless you're not "too concerned with success.". Polarized personality questions are fine, just sometimes tough to select the more accurate answer.
