Poll: What Personality are you?

I was just curious what personality/temperament classification you fit into. Now I know everyone is unique in their own ways, but of the four classifications listed what are you most like?
Melancholic- The defining feature of a melancholic attitude is perfectionism. They are idealists who wish for things to be a certain way, and they get distressed when they are not. This leads to them being self-deprecating - because they do not meet their own standards - and critical of others - because those others do not meet their standards. Melancholics are the most introverted of the temperaments in that they crave time alone, and are most at ease in their own company. Melancholics are very emotional. They are moved deeply by beauty, and by distress. They are very easily hurt, because of their perfectionistic tendencies. Often their moods are like delicate glass sculptures; built up slowly, deliberately, and carefully, but easily broken, and hard to repair once shattered.
Phlegmatic- Phlegmatic people are meek, submissive introverts who live to please others. Phlegmatics do not act as if they are better than others. They are eager to please, and quick to give in to others rather than asserting their own desires as if they're the most important. They take the path of least resistance whenever possible. They so desperately wish for peace, for everyone to get along, and to avoid conflict at all costs. They'll defer to others to make choices, and will feel upset and pressured if they have to make a decision themselves; this comes from their inability to see themselves in a 'leader' role. Phlegmatics are introverted, and enjoy time alone. However, they are much 'nicer' and more friendly and social than the melancholic, as they're unburdened by 'perfectionism' and as such do not judge others. They lack 'passion', as their emotions are mostly internal. They often rely on others ordering them to do things to get motivation.
Choleric- Choleric people are the proud, extroverted 'alphas' of our species. Cholerics people are leaders and directors. They seek to be in control of situations, to be on top, to be the best. Many will stand up to those who bully others, rather than letting them get away with things. They love competition... but hate to lose. They will 'challenge' others aggressively in order to show their respect for the person's strength. They believe that it is important to 'prove oneself'. Cholerics are extroverted in the sense that they will meddle in others' affairs and 'speak their mind' if they feel it is necessary, rather than minding their own business. They generally believe that they are right, and have immense stubbornness about admitting their flaws.
Sanguine- Sanguine people are boisterous, bubbly, chatty, openly emotional, social extroverts. Sanguines find social interactions with faces both familiar and unfamiliar invigorating. This is how they recharge, and time alone - while sometimes desirable - can bore them quickly. They love wild nights out. They are talkative, and speak in a friendly, energetic, playful kind of way; they're often charismatic, and when interacting with them, you can feel like you've known them all your life. They are quick to 'forgive and forget' - and expect others to do the same - because they live in the moment rather than dwelling in the past. They love attention. They desire to be in the spotlight, and for people to compliment and praise them. Everyone loves compliments, but sanguines will go out of their way to get them. They are often performers, party animals, drama queens.
I used info from this website for my information on this poll. http://temperaments.fighunter.com/?page=sanguine

Huh.... I seem to be stuck between Phlegmatic and Sanguine... I think it is very balanced between the two but it listed the Phlegmatic first.

Most people would likely claim that they don't fit exactly into one temperament. Obviously there is more to these classes than what I summarized. Check out the link if you are curious about the classifications. I take this lightly. Much of psychology is the assumption of substance abusers.

me too I believe that there are way more than just 4 traits.
This is like trying to make people fit into categories.
Some people use the internet to make things happen, some become so laid back that they use a fake name generator and they are happy with it. There are so many categories that your hands won't hold all categories.

I set up this poll for something amusing to me and anyone who wanted to read up on temperaments. I'm not really defending a PhD thesis here. It is not a 100% match to almost anyone. It has been pretty entertaining how some are reacting. Does this cause anyone distress? It is an old category system that generalizes people a handful of temperaments. Sorry if this may make you feel less unique. How about anyone who does not see a category that fits them personally, please comment exactly how special you are. I would really like to know.

Phlegmatic and Melancholic second for me. I'm usually happy and accepting of whatever my current situation is, so if someone is uncomfortable or mad about something I want to help in anyway I can, as long as your'e not getting stepped on or used why not share the love!

All of the above.
-------------------- Let it be seen that you are nothing. And in knowing that you are nothing... there is nothing to lose, there is nothing to gain. What can happen to you? Something can happen to the body, but it will either heal or it won't. What's the big deal? Let life knock you to bits. Let life take you apart. Let life destroy you. It will only destroy what you are not. --Jac O'keeffe
