The Cool Cookie
Who are you - and why?
Cool cookie scores highly when faced with life challenges. She thinks rather than feels. You're great in an emergency, superb at finding practical and logical solutions, but the problem is, you may find it difficult to feel much and you tend to miss out on rich emotion.
The positives:
You get things done. You stay rational and operational even under stress - and you sail through life's crises, such as divorce or job loss, without seeming to break stride.
The negatives:
You can tend to live too much in your head - and deny the emotions that you do feel because they're too uncomfortable. And if the stress is too much, then you may go into overload, and just get paralysed.
The cool cookie in work:
You get a job done quickly, efficiently and always to deadline. You are a reliable worker and will rise to a challenge. You take tricky clients and stroppy bosses in your stride. Watch out though, you may be unaware of the social and emotional side of the game and often can't cope with office politics or group dynamics.
The cool cookie in love:
You are good at making the right choice of partner, but can fall short on the romance and emotional intensity. You may find it difficult to fall in love and stay in love, simply because being emotional does not come naturally to you. You may tend to be unsympathetic to a partner's emotional problems.
Your love match is:
Paired with any of the other personality types, your unemotional attitude will balance out their more emotional personality - although their emotional intensity leaves you feeling uncomfortable. The partner who'll cope best with that, and who will help you contact your emotions, will be a leveller.
What should you do?
You will be happier and more fulfilled if you start getting in touch with your emotions. Read Feelings - Exploring Your Inner Emotions by Dr Brian Roet, (Piatkus, #9.99) or take a personal development course to help you get in tune with the feeling side of your personality.
Discover even more about your personality by reading Susan Quilliam's new book, What Makes People Tick? (Element, £9.99)
