4. Take the quiz: Which chess piece are you?

The Queen’s Confidante is the first to hear the beat of a different drum. Many plunge into the avant garde experience and generally set the trend for their friends. They are more in touch with reality using their senses but this makes them want to live for the ‘here and now’. The Confidante is full of charm and may flow with compliments even if it isn’t deserved. Rather than write a poem on the beauty of life – they would rather live out the written story of beauty.

The Queen’s Confidante is usually peaceful and easygoing in nature. They usually adopt a ‘live and let live’ approach to life. They take things at their own pace and live for the moment. They may be quiet but are pleasant, considerate and caring. They may not be inclined to debate or air their views, but of course their values are important to them. They will solve problems as they arise especially if it concerns people. Generally the Confidante is one who develops great team spirit through the promotion of cooperation. They will only repeat facts without placing too much spin or interpretation on them. Because of this they may be the best mediators.

The Confidante is sensitive to its environment, and much more perceiving than others with regards to the physical world. They can notice variations in behavior of others. They are highly conscious of companions and friends, but they prefer to let others direct. This ‘Pawn’ is rarer than others because they are emotionally well rounded with a great degree of empathy. Because of this empathy, they can be overly concerned with ‘feelings’. They may even sacrifice their ideals and not contribute enough, especially if they don’t wish to exercise criticism.

5. Of the games you listed in the first three answers, did you win any of the matches? One or two.

6. If you could only play one single game for the rest of your life, which game would you play and why would you choose it? World of Warcraft, because I am an addict!

2. Who was usually the first one to say, “I love you” in your past relationships: you or your partner? It is usually me that says “I love you” to my partner first. Sometimes it is a good thing to say it first but I have learned that it usually causes me pain.

3. If you decided you wanted to date someone, what would the primary test you’d give to see whether your “intended” had commitment issues? The test would be if they are able to handle a “packeage deal – two kids, two dogs and my brother and his family”.

4. Take the quiz: Are you afraid of commitment?

You Are A Little Scared of Commitment

You’re open to getting serious with someone… though you can’t entirely imagine it. Maybe you haven’t met the right person. Maybe you haven’t gotten to the right point in your life. Your reaction to commitment is very normal – especially if you’re young or have been burned before. Give it time. You’ll probably be ready for a serious relationship sooner than you think.

Are You Afraid of Commitment?

5. Do you find yourself faster or slower to commit to a presidential candidate now versus previous elections? I am slow to commit to any presidential candidate in any election. I will wait until the day of voting to make my final decision.

6. You see something in a store that you really, really want. Once you decide that you’re actually going to buy it, how easy would it be to talk yourself out of your commitment to buy it? It is very hard for me to talk myself into buying something. If I don’t make the purchase on the spur of the moment then I will never make that purchase.

5. Of the condiments currently in your refrigerator, which would you say you have used the least in the last year? I have used horseradish and Worcestershire sauce the least because I don’t like them all that much.

6. After months of unsuccessful attempts, you finally get the recipe for a food you enjoy. When making it for the first time yourself, you discover an individual ingredient that you hate in everything else. Would you still make the dish with that ingredient, or would you try it without? I would still use the ingedient in the dish but I would also make it without so that I can taste to two dishes and see which taste best. If the dish with the ingreedient in it tastes good then I will continue to use it.
