Choose your own [relationship] adventure.

I took the “choose your own adventure” style relationship survey. The neat thing about that survey is that its by psychologists who are actually writing a paper, so the data isn’t going to waste. Also, they give you a little chart and description of the outcome.

Combining your anxiety and avoidance scores, you fall into the dismissing quadrant. Previous research on attachment styles indicates that dismissing people tend to prefer their own autonomy–oftentimes at the expense of their close relationships. Although dismissing people often have high self-confidence, they sometimes come across as hostile or competitive by others, and this often interferes with their close relationships.

Not only that, but they said that I ended up making choices that led to a fairly secure relationship.

Go me… Val, you may have a keeper.
