Are You Easily Swayed by Your Emotions?
Psychological Test Question: When life or work feels overwhelming, how do you relieve stress and lift your mood?
A:
B:
C:
D:
E:
A: Sleep in until you wake up on your own
Psychological Test Result: You’re not easily misled by your feelings. You’re rational and open-minded, and you don’t sweat the small stuff. You take a relaxed approach to relationships: if it’s good, you stay; if not, you move on. You don’t let love blind you, so it’s hard for others to deceive you.
B: Have a good cry in private
Psychological Test Result: You’re easily swayed by your feelings. You may feel a lack of love in your life, which fuels a strong longing for romance. That urgency can blind you to red flags, leading you to misjudge people until you get hurt—only then realizing the sweet love was just a dream.
C: Shout at the top of your lungs in an open area
Psychological Test Result: You knowingly let your feelings mislead you. You’re passionate and can lose yourself in love, even when the other person doesn’t feel the same. It’s less that love deceives you and more that you’re deceiving yourself.
D: Find a quiet spot and daydream for a while
Psychological Test Result: You’re unlikely to be misled by your feelings. You’ve been through a lot in relationships, so the usual games of love feel like child’s play—you spot them a mile away. How could they fool you? If anything, you’re the one who could turn the tables.
E: Get really drunk
Psychological Test Result: You seem born for love. Once you’re in a relationship, everything else fades as you dive into a sweet fantasy of your own making—and you’re reluctant to wake up. That makes you especially vulnerable to being misled by your feelings.
