Please answer TRUE or FALSE to each

statement, then leave another one

for the next person, and I will begin with ~

You know how to eat

[Westerly_2]

yes

when you express yourself, you use concrete details, rather than abstractions, usually

[Angharad]

It depends on what I'm trying to express and to whom.

You find beauty and value in all forms of poetry--or almost.

[Westerly_2]

almost

 you're looking to learn a new skill, just for the heck of it

[Angharad]

Yup--always looking.

You have taken and completed at least one MOOC

[Westerly_2]

nope I had to look the term up

you were once a tutor for remedial students

[Angharad]

(edX is a MOOC platform that's pretty good and free. I've taken several interesting classes--a couple from MIT, two from Harvard, two from USC--and really enjoyed them. edX has gone mostly tech, but there are still occasionally a few good poetry or philosophy classes.  You might want to check it out. https://www.edx.org/ )

Yes, I have tutored.

You, also, have tutored and find it gratifying.

[Westerly_2]

just friends and relatives on an informal basis

when you come across people who seem determined to pick a fight, you wonder whatever motivates them

[Angharad]

Nope, not usually. I generally understand the kinds of emotions which motivate aggression.

You see yourself as more of a lover than a fighter.

[Westerly_2]

(me, I am clueless in the face of unwarranted attacks. Something hidden provokes it)

true, to your question

you do not believe that  "diamonds are a girl's best friend"

[Angharad]

I agree--it's something hidden from the person who attacks without provocation. It's usually the ol' repress and purge inappropriately thang--a problem/emotion shoved down, covered over, festering, and then spewed forth all over a totally innocent individual who has inadvertently triggered a response. This often eventually manifests itself as what people would call a "rage problem."

Nope. Diamonds aren't this girl's best friend. 

You feel that while being alone can be therapeutic, being isolated is a problem.

[Westerly_2]

I do

you commune with at least one person every day

[Angharad]

True. I commune with you, for one. ツ

Life has turned out very differently than you ever imagined.
