I really liked the "green mask" concept. Please explain your meaning of the word "green". That you describe yourself as an introverted person seeking information intrigues me. I would believe you would have great potential as a wonderful friend for anyone. And the constant seeking of information would make you open to acceptance of the beliefs and ideas of others regardless of your own inner beliefs and ideas.

Yes, I have put together this group as a forum where we can discuss our varying personality types after we have taking the assessment tool or survey provided in the WONDER WHY WE DO THINGS WE DO section of this group. Unfortunately, I was not able to design this group the way in which I wanted ... that is placing the main content with the surveys on the entry page of the group.

I would suggest taking the True Colors and Introvert / Extrovert quizes and reading the content in the WONDER WHY WE DO THINGS WE DO first.

Yep, that pretty well describes me. I am an introvert green, with secondary color of gold.

I have many aquaintances, but few friends. However the friends are "forever friends" and the friendships have no time boundaries. My profession is "financial analyst" - before that it was "budget analyst". When I'm stressed, I need time alone.

My husband and I are almost exact opposites, which makes social functions a bit challenging.

I am not very good at the social thing. When I feel I had made a mistake, I put myself down and attempt to withdraw from either the individual or social interactions a bit. I seem to say or do the wrong things.

Mycella:

It seems my "destiny" to say or do the wrong things. I just keep on trying and try to have the right "intention" when I do or say something.

Yes, I often say what's in my head without filtering it first and it comes out wrong, then I regret it. Sometimes I wish life had a DELETE button. :)
