1. If you were on holiday with a group of friends, would it probably be you that did most of the jobs like shopping, cooking, keeping the place tidy?

Yes, I almost always fall into this role, I think I must enjoy it deep downNo chance, I don't mind doing my bit, but there's absolutely no way I would end up doing it all, I definitely confront the others to make sure they did their bit.As long as I was having a good laugh and enjoying myself! I couldn't care lessSomething else - please state below:

2. Do you tend to be a bit over weight, or struggle keeping your weight down?

No, I'm really good at controlling my weight, if I do put any weight on; I get my act together and get rid of the extra weightAbsolutely yes, I've always seemed to have a struggleUsually I'm okay, but if I do put any weight on, OMG I hit the gym/go jogging/cycle/ get on the latest mad diet, I just have to look really amazing/totally buff or I feel really drastic about it until I'm totally sortedSomething else - please state below:

3. Are you the sort of person who likes 'treats' if you're having a bad day?

Very much yes, if I come in from work for instance and it's been a drudge of a day, there's nothing nicer that having a nice tea/glass of wine with my favorite cake/biscuits, even if I am on a diet. Or maybe go out and buy myself something that I’ve been wanting.Not really, I'd probably put some really upbeat music on to try to kick me out of it, get out and have some fun with friends, or do something really crazy to take my mind off it.Not usually, I'm pretty good like that; I'd rather do something like go for a jog, read a book. If I were on a diet, there would be very little chance of me doing this.Something else - please state below

4. Do you find it really difficult to keep up with exercise routines or diets?

I find it difficult to get into, but once I get going I'm fine for a while, especially if I have a friend helping, but it's really easy to fall by the waysideYes, I can can get really focused on stuff like this, anything that's a bit of a challenge I relish and keep going to achieve my targetsAs long as I am being successful, it's easy, especially if my partner or friends notice how well I am doing, it seems to really motivate me.Something else, please state

5. If someone says something to you that's quite critical, such as they think you are a bit rude and thoughtless, fat, dress horribly or similar, do you?

Feel quite hurt inside, but keep it to yourself, maybe getting a bit down in the dumps or tearful about it. Even so, not really falling out with the person, just accepting it's the way the person is and eventually moving on.Feel quite cold about the person, maybe pointing out a few of their shortcomings, certainly letting them know they can keep their opinions to themselves or similar.Become very emotional over the criticism, maybe crying or lashing out verbally/physically with anger at the personSomething else - please state below:

6. Do you have strong religious, spiritual or paranormal type beliefs?

Absolutely yes, for some or all of the above.I like the idea in believing in something after we die, or that my relatives are waiting on the other side, but I'm not really sure I do believe, just hope reallyAbsolutely no, for some or all of the above.I've had some really incredible, weird experiences I just can't explain.Something else - please state below:

7. When you read or see on the news on television about a child molester or someone who is definitely guilty of murder do you think they should be executed, if there is no doubt about their guilt?

No not really, everyone should be given the chance to reform and maybe return to society if it is certain they won't hurt anyone. There's always the chance they might not be guilty.Absolutely yes, they deserve no mercy.As far as I am concerned, they should be tortured first, made to suffer unmentionable pain, nothing's too bad for them, make them suffer.Something else - please state below:

8. Do you find you are quite driven by your emotions?

Yes, I'm a very emotional person, people can hurt me or make me feel tremendous love, I forgive others very easily.I have emotions of course, but I don't let them get in the way of important decisions, I'm far too analytical for that.Oh my god yes, I can react with incredible happiness and excitement or tremendous and almost indescribable pain and hurt at things that happen to me.Something else - please state below:

9. Are you the sort of person who is able to make difficult decisions in an unemotional way, taking the correct course of action, even if someone's feelings might be hurt?

Yes absolutely, there's usually no room for sentiment with the really important things in life.I tend to run a mile from the really important decisions in life, I'm terrified of getting it wrong.When I make a decision and it's the right one, I feel just amazing, if I get it wrong, I'm completely gutted.No, things do have to feel right to me, seeing things logically does help, but if it doesn't feel right I wouldn't do it.Something else - please state below:

10. When it's been really horrible weather for a few days, do you find?

You might get a bit down in the dumps over it.It just really gets you down, a real pain and you start thinking things like you've just got to book a break or you'll go madIt really gets you down, and you don't seem to be able to get your head around it.Something else - please state below:

11. When you read, see something on TV that's really quite sad or just amazing, do you?
