• Do you use Facebook, Twitter, etc. as your main venue to share important personal news with your close friends and family?

  asked by a SkinnyScoop member, 20 responses

  A SkinnyScoop member commented: I love Social Media for the information and connections I've found and made. That being said, I don't find it appropriate to announce serious personal news via the web. There has to be some privacy left in this day and age.

  A SkinnyScoop member commented: The SkinnyScoop team tends to think this is funny since I came out in the middle of Extrovert and Introvert. Interesting quiz!

• How often do you express yourself in friendship (by saying "I love you," "You're great," etc.)?

  asked by a SkinnyScoop member, 17 responses

  A SkinnyScoop member commented: I try so hard to make sure the people in my life know that I think they're amazing and that I care about them so much. I attribute this to growing up with parents who always told me they loved me, now proud they were of me, etc.

• Have you ever started a conversation by eavesdropping on someone else's?

  asked by a SkinnyScoop member, 14 responses

• Are you a scorekeeper in friendship?

  asked by a SkinnyScoop member, 7 responses

  A SkinnyScoop member commented: Scorekeeper in a friendship? Is that really a friendship? Sadly, I've had a friendship where I felt that she was always keeping score while I never found the need to do so. Fortunately we are no longer friends. I think real friendships should want the best for each other and encourage one another to reach for their goals.

• Do you think you are shy?

  asked by a SkinnyScoop member, 9 responses

  A SkinnyScoop member commented: Eden - people never believe me either. I'm the same way. I get intimidated very easily in new situations and I need to survey the situation first.

I also have decided early on in my life that I wasn't going to let my shyness hold me back.
