Your concern about rejection and ridicule cause you to feel shy and uncomfortable around others. [I am shy around others, but not for that reason.] You are easily embarrassed and often feel ashamed. [Nope.] Your fears that others will criticize or make fun of you are exaggerated and unrealistic [That is not a worry.], but your awkwardness and discomfort may make these fears a self-fulfilling prophecy. [My real problem is that I don't know how to "chit-chat". Without a specific topic, I get lost. I can't think of anything to say. That makes me awkward and uncomfortable.] You often resist any cravings or urges that you have, but sometimes you give in. You are poised, confident, and clear-thinking when stressed.

Sometimes too much so.] and are sometimes not even aware of your own feelings. You are eager to try new activities, travel to foreign lands, and experience different things.

How'd you know that?!] As a person who is open-minded to new and unusual ideas, you love to play with and think about ideas. You also like to debate intellectual issues and often enjoy riddles, puzzles and brain teasers. Often you exhibit a readiness to challenge authority, convention, and traditional values.

I believe that you follow even a stupid rule until you get it changed.] and perhaps even enjoy ambiguity.
Agreeableness
People see you as tough, critical, and uncompromising and you have less concern with others' needs than with your own. [Um - no.
