The OKCupid.com test result.

Like catalana and telynor, I didn't like some of the questions, particularly the threesome one - hell, what if I'm not either offended or relieved? My actual reaction would be curiosity as to why the request came up. The other one I didn't like was whether flirting was okay while dating someone. That's not an absolute either - it depends on the people in the relationship. Some are more sensitive to it than others.

There were a few others, but those were the two that stuck in my craw. Anyway, for here's my result, for what it's worth...


The Slow Dancer
Deliberate Gentle Love Dreamer (DGLDm)

Steady, reliable, and cradling her tenderly. Take a deep breath, and let it out real easy... you are The Slow Dancer.

Your focus is love, not sex, and for your age, you have average experience. But you're a great, thoughtful guy, and your love life improves every year. There's also a powerful elimination process working in your favor: most Playboy types get stuck raising unwanted kids before you even begin settling down. The women left over will be hot and yours. Your ideal woman is someone intimate, intelligent, and very supportive.

While you're not exactly the life of the party, you do thrive in small groups of smart people. Your circle of friends is extra tight and it's HIGHLY likely they're just like you. You appreciate symmetry in relationships.

ALWAYS AVOID: The Battleaxe

CONSIDER: The Maid of Honor or The Sonnet

That sounds more like what I thought I should get.

Not sure how it decided I was "sex" instead of "love".

Interesting that the DGLD gets different descriptions depending on whether you're male or female. Sonnet is the same letter combination as slow dancer.

I came out "The Peach". But I didn't like the questions either. My thought on the threesome was "it depends a hell of a lot on who and why!" Also there was one I disliked enough to not answer - but it let me leave it blank, should have done that for more of them.

I also felt that my personality would come out very different if I answered based on my historical relationship patterns versus my relationship pattern now that I am happily married to my "one true love" (tm). I tended to answer honestly to how I am now, not "how I might be if I were looking for a new relationship which I'm not".

Apparently, I'm the Peach as well - possibly on the strength of my responding "Yes" to the "Is flirting okay when married" question. (Although I agree with you, the answer to this q depends on the sentiments of your mate. In my horrible-double-standards way, you know I'd be threatening to gouge HL's eyes out with a spoon.) Not sure how the thing decided I was "Random" rather than "Deliberate" (which, if I was, would make me the Maid of Honour) - on the one hand, I do believe I make decisions rationally and carefully, but on the other hand (as you know) this isn't necessarily true in matters of the heart.

Although I do think "the Slow Dancer" is very much you. What's your Random counterpart?

"The Boy Next Door"... who is actually, who I used to be, probably.

Aww! Yeah, that was you. Well, you're still a generous dreamer, even after your sojourn with, um, the half-cocked blonde.
