FRIENDSHIP QUIZ ANSWERS

If you chose two letters in fairly equal amounts, read both answers.

Mostly As : You are a Party Animal

You’re a likeable, confident person who has a great social life. You enjoy meeting new people and have a wide circle of friends. There’s a tendency for most of your friendships to be rather superficial, based on enjoying shared activities rather than getting to know your friends’ characters and helping each other to achieve your dreams.  As long as you have one or two close friends to share your innermost thoughts with, that doesn’t matter, but if all your friends are really just buddies to share your good times with, you could end up feeling lonely in a crowd.

Mostly Bs: You are a Networker

You have a strong network of supportive friends, and you all pull together to help each other as well as having fun together. You’re good at making friends, and you know how to keep them, too – you’re a warm, caring person who remembers birthdays and special events in your friends’ lives, not as a duty, but because you’re genuinely interested in what they do. You may not have one specific ‘best friend’ in the group, but that’s because all your friends are best!

Mostly Cs: You are a Casual Friend

Friends aren’t a high priority for you, as your family links are more important. You don’t socialise much outside the home, but you don’t think of it as a serious lack in your life, although you think occasionally that it would be nice to have a few more friends. You have the inner resources to cope without needing lots of extra people in your life, which is why you tend not to stay in touch with your former friends. However, your casual attitude can be hurtful to the friends you do have, and if you want to keep them, you’ll try harder to show more interest in the things that matter in their lives.

Mostly Ds: You are a Loyal Friend

You don’t have many friends – maybe even just one – but you’re a true friend who is loyal and considerate. You’re always ready to listen and sympathise with your friends’ problems as well as celebrate their achievements. If you can be a bit clingy at times, it could be a sign that you need to make more effort to mix with other people, too.
