I am a Lone Wolf
This is an article I found in the website of Men's health magazine entitled "Personality Test." Here are the choices. I'm definitely the lone wolf type even though I see myself in some of the other choices. If you want to see the full article click here. http://www.menshealth.com.ph/fashion/personality-test
1.THE LONE WOLF
Time alone is your way of dealing with stress. Be it spent watching a special edition DVD, listening to your latest compilation on your iPod, or catching up on some literature. (It sure beats nursing a hangover.) Not that you don't have a social life—even lone wolves need to go on the prowl once in a while.
Defining trait: Self-knowledge. You're a searcher and wanderer like the Pilgrim. You're always optimistic and compelled to pitch in for a worthy cause. "Pilgrims may travel far into the world or deep into their own minds, enduring physical and mental hardships for the worthy quest of truly knowing one's self," says Santos.
How to harness it: Let your girl know that spending some time apart helps your spirit and intellect. (And not an excuse to meet other women.) "Your spirit is characterized by Carl Jung as the ‘highest freedom, the deliverance from the prison of timorous souls who do not want to become anything different,'" explains Santos. "Be firm in your individuality."
2.THE AESTHETICIST
You're a stickler for details, and it shows. A daily regimen for hygiene and grooming, for starters. A choice of scent that matches your mood, and your ensemble. A diet that consists of the purest ingredients, but delivers maximum sensory satisfaction.
Defining trait: Sensitivity. Giving, caring, sensitive, and intimate—you're practically a woman. Seriously, endure your barkada's ribbing because chicks dig you. "The Lover is a symbol of man's connectedness to other people, particularly for his innate understanding of women's needs," says Santos. " He understands the primal appetite of all human hungers, such as for food, well-being, reproduction, creativity, and meaning...and he knows how to master them."
3.THE FLEXECUTIVE
You're a jack-of-all-trades, and your flexible work pattern is proof. You can be at your desk one moment, and on the next flight out to Singapore in an e-mail's notice. The demands from your jet-setting profession need a stylish counterpoint. And you've got it in spades.
Defining trait: Leadership. "The King embodies male greatness," explains Santos. You're trustworthy and wise, and you draw out the best from your friends and coworkers. "Filled with spiritual generosity, dignity, and composure," she adds, "the King has the strength of character to lead people into places they might not wish to go, but must."
4.THE ADRENALINE JUNKIE
You rarely sit still, and there's never a dull moment around you. Thursdays are spent planning the weekend's adventure: Will it be mountain biking, kayaking, or surfing? Why not do all three? Mondays are spent briefly reenacting the past 48 hours in your head, before diving headlong into work. That is, till the next weekend, and your next adrenaline fix.
Defining trait: Passion. You're the average guy's idol: lusty, unpredictable, and independent. "He is the ancient male paradigm of one who yearns for freedom," says Santos. "He represents man's primordial connections with nature."
5.THE IRON MAN
You work hard—and work out harder. You look and feel younger that your colleagues wonder if you've found the fountain of youth. Unbeknownst to them, Technogym, Cybex, and Concept II are essential components of your anti-aging formula. Your measure of success is the number of calories burned.
Defining trait: Self Control. You exemplify the Warrior's discipline. Brave and honorable, real men have self-control and moral courage. "The true Warrior commits to a cause and uses all his energy to fight for it," says Santos.
6.THE CLASSICIST
You embrace tradition, but without the buttoned-up conservatism that's mistakenly associated with it. Your love of old world elegance is best communicated by your choice of clothes—classic shades of brown from brands that have a heritage—as opposed to vintage store and ukay-ukay finds.
Defining trait: Nobility. "Patriarchs are judges, fathers and tribal leaders who are have been responsible for creating and maintaining an orderly society," says Santos. You protect your home, head your own company, or even run for public office.
