How Narcissistic Are You?
Psychological Test Question: On your way to work, it suddenly starts to rain. You duck into a nearby store to pick up an umbrella “just in case.” If the store has the following four styles, which one would you choose?
A:
B:
C:
D:
A: Umbrella with animal patterns
Choosing this option suggests you have some self-admiration, but not to a narcissistic degree. You have strong self-respect and can’t stand being looked down on. If a partner cheated on you, you’d be furious and might grow cynical, losing faith in love.
B: Umbrella with polka dots
Choosing this option suggests you’re not narcissistic. You have a clear sense of your strengths and weaknesses and know how to get along with others. Your cheerful, optimistic nature and willingness to help have earned you many friends.
C: Portable folding umbrella
Choosing this option points to a fairly narcissistic streak. You often catch yourself admiring your reflection—whether in a mirror, a window, or even a puddle. Being overly self-focused can make it hard for you to accept advice or criticism, which can lead to stubborn missteps.
D: Solid color umbrella
Choosing this option suggests a high degree of narcissism. You’re very confident and believe you’re quite charming, often attracting admirers—and you enjoy the attention in romance. Youth is worth cherishing, not squandering, because it’s brief; by the time you try to hold on to it, it may already have slipped away.
