Just awake

[andrewducker]

Haven't slept this late in years.

Checking FB, I notice that my friends largely agree with my self-analysis _except_ when it comes to my agreeableness, where it turns out I'm a complete bastard.


My first thought is to wonder what I'm doing wrong. Apparently I don't come across as interested in them, which is weird, as I _think_ I am. Maybe I'm just fooling myself.

Edit: What's even more interesting is that I then went to answer some more questions and found myself focussing on the times I _haven't_ been there for my friends, interested in their troubles, etc. and found that my agreeableness score plummeted. Which either means that self-assessment scores are notoriously vulnerable to situational variables or that I hadn't realised how callous I really am. Or, most likely, both.

Thinking about it further though - I never answered a question marked "How much do you agree with your friends, no matter how wrong they are?" - which still means that I answered "agreeableness" questions different to how my friends did, indicating that this is an area where my self-perception and their perception of me are significantly out of whack...
