30 - 36
You have a an excellent grasp
of your emotions, and that of others. You're respected and a pleasure to
deal with. People find you capable of a warmth that draws them to you
both as partners and friends.
25 - 29
Your response is middle-of-the-range
and you are comfortable either in "thinking " or "feeling" mode.
Intimacy doesn't come easily, but you have enough emotional warmth to
make you attractive to people.
12 - 24
You only ever trust your thoughts, not your feelings, and find it
difficult to express emotion. Logic gets you through but you can appear
cold. Open up or people will miss the warmth you do have.
