Yeah, I know that sounds lame, I once took a quiz on mycupid.com that said that I'm so nice I would make even Jesus throw up or something to that effect. And other quizzes say I'm good in small doses- so in other words, I annoy people in some way? God, I wish I didn't care so much about what others think, part of my problem is I care too much. Always have. I took another professional test through my therapist when I was still in college and scored like an ITSF personality or something like that which apparently only less than 2% of the population shares my personality.

Personally, I recommend taking the results of personality tests with a grain of salt. We are all human. Our moods can change from moment to moment. Remind yourself that we all have different experiences in life which shape our personalities.

The ITSF ~ Introverted Thinking Subjective Feeling personality style isn't necessarily a bad thing. Every possible letter in the test results with both positive and negative qualities.

Onto the worry about what other people think about you.....That's not an uncommon worry. Lots of us share that concern. I'd recommend working on developing self-esteem. Do things that you enjoy. Go places that you enjoy going to. Try not to worry that you're annoying people by being yourself. So sad to have thoughts and fears like that. Just push those thoughts right out of your mind when they enter. They're wrong!

Some people may become annoyed by you ~ just like some people irritate you. We're human. But, certainly not everyone. There are a lot of decent, caring people in this world who would like to hear what you have to say! Gentle hugs to you ~ please do work on building a sense of self-worth and respect yourself.
