Keys to my Heart

I took this little quiz thing that lots of people on myspace have on their profiles. It’s the Key to Your Heart one. These are my results. And my commentary about how this quiz is bullshit.

You are attracted to those who are unbridled, untrammeled, and free.
Wrong. That’s me. I am attracted to those who are stable, predictable, and reliable.

In love, you feel the most alive when things are straight-forward, and you’re told that you’re loved.
I’m not sure about the most-alive part, but I do feel most secure. If I’m always told how wonderful I am, it’s hard to doubt it. I feel the most alive when things are crazy and I’m doing stuff I’m not supposed to…like going 150 mph on a backroad with 90 degree turns.

You’d like to your lover to think you are loyal and faithful… that you’ll never change.
I’d like them to think that I suppose, but I’m not so much. I will change, if it’s not something too huge. And it’s not something that I really like about myself. I will most definitely change negative behaviors or quirks that I find myself annoyed with anyway. And I’m kinda loyal and kinda faithful, but sometimes I won’t be.

You would be forced to break up with someone who was ruthless, cold-blooded, and sarcastic.
Well, I dated Michael for a long time. He was all three.

Your ideal relationship is open. Both of you can talk about everything… no secrets.
Makes things easier, and I have that for the most part with Don. There’s still some things I haven’t told him, and probably won’t ever, but other than that, we’re pretty open. I suppose this one’s true.

Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment.
Big fat NO. I’ve cheated before, and I don’t give a shit about society or morality. I’ve broken plenty of commitments.

You think of marriage as something that will confine you. You are afraid of marriage.
I’m not afraid of marriage. I want to get married someday; it’ll confirm the fact that I’m lovable and not an inadequate loser.

In this moment, you think of love as commitment. Love only works when both people are totally devoted.
You can still be in love with someone who doesn’t love you back. It happens all the time. A relationship is a commitment that needs two devoted parties. I love this kid who will never feel the same about me (not Don, so don’t worry ’bout that) and it’s still love.

So as you can see, me picking animals in situations doesn’t tell the keys to my heart. All it says is my animal preference. That I like horses over snakes and pidgeons, or lions over crocodiles and sharks. Duh.
