What makes you a good friend?

Well, I did this quiz just for fun - it was only about five or six questions - and was then a bit surprised at the result, which is spot on:

You Are a Good Friend Because You're Accepting

No matter what a friend says or does, you try your best to understand it.
And your friends feel like they can tell you anything. You don't judge.

You know that friendship is a journey - with a lot of ups and downs.
If you and a friend grow apart, you get over it quickly... and leave the potential for future friendship open.

You tend to have many friends from many walks of life. Anyone you meet is could become a friend.
In fact, you are especially interested in people who are a little different than you. Seeing life from another perspective is something you cherish.

Your friends need you most when: They can't turn to anyone else with their secrets

You really can't be friends with: Dogmatic, stubborn people

Your friendship quote: "Love is blind, but friendship closes its eyes."

What kind of flower?

Well, this was a bit of an odd quiz, and the description seems a bit exaggerated... but what amazed me was that my name actually means 'a lily'!

You Are A Lily

You are a nurturer and all around natural therapist.
People see you as their rock. And they are able to depend on you.
You are a soothing influence. You can make people feel better with a few words.
Your caring has more of an impact than even you realize.

Intrapersonal intelligence

This was always supposed to be one of my strengths, in any 'multiple intelligence' questionnaire. So I guess the quiz is about right:

Your Intrapersonal Intelligence Score: 86%

Your Intrapersonal Intelligence is Very High

You've spent a lot of time introspecting, and it's really paid off.
You are comfortable with who you are, and you have a life philosophy that you are happy to live by.
And you're always re-evaluating what you believe. Because you learn something new about yourself each day!

Interpersonal intelligence

Yes, I think this is about right...

Your Interpersonal Intelligence Score: 41%

Your Interpersonal Intelligence is Average

You do well in most group settings, but you also need time to recharge.
So while you can work with people during the day, you may crave your alone time at night.
For you, it's all about balance!
