From the small sample in this thread it does seem like openness is especially high among users here, but agreeableness also averages around 75, a lot higher than the other three. As someone who scored below average in A, I notice myself worrying slightly. I wonder if higher agreeableness is...

Hi and welcome, @Tahquil ! I'm sorry you have no one else to share your doubts with, and glad that you feel you can share them here! It seems normal to me to have doubts at this stage of a relationship, especially as the dynamic is new to you. Those doubts are a signal that it's a good point in...

Interesting... I can't say I'm surprised by any of these numbers, though like @Aejay I imagine it's something like +/-10% taking the test multiple times. O 87.5% C 35% E 48% A 48% N 35%

When I first signed up here it was a kind of cautious foray into the world of polyamory, so I chose a new handle. Several of my online names are tea related (I'm actually more of a coffee drinker, but I do like the role tea plays in British culture, my chosen home), and with polyamory the theme...

@sagstarchild, I'm sorry you experienced this. I imagine you feel frustrated and angry at this man, shaken in your trust and also disappointed both with him and yourself. Would you agree? That's a tough place to be in. It looks like you got some really good support out of this thread. And I...

The way I see it, Cdb931 is communicating clearly with us here who aren't emotionally invested. And he and his GF are not communicating effectively with each other in this matter, as neither of them seems to be taking in and reflecting the other's feelings and making them feel heard. This may...

Hi Cdb931, This is a tough situation to be in. I feel for you. I imagine you're mentally preparing yourself for a big blow from this. You're already hurting because your partner seems to be turning away from you, and you're expecting much more hurt to come. Is that right? I found it...

Thanks, Magdlyn, and thanks, Kevin! I'm not so sure about the wisdom part, I think that's just me taking wayyyy too much time to put the things I want to say in writing :)

Hi, I've been lurking here for a couple of months now, mainly reading the Golden Nuggets, and decided it's time to introduce myself. I'm also looking for advice for the situation I find myself in, and I'll start a separate thread for that in the Relationships Corner (that might take me a...
