The other criterias are standards and all of them are dependent , In my long experience in behaviour studies and personality analysis , I am able to determine 70% from hiddden personality for anyone if he send me an Email with randome words he picks them up , Hani , It is really good topic to talk about and i wish you good luck . This is me nation waly ;) Hani,

This was inspired by a post about picking a husband, but it is instead meant to decide how to pick people to associate with in general. Asma, I didn’t express myself clearly.

Certainly the features are irksome and I regret to admit are a part of many people I know! Lord knows Sara's point [08:28:51] on people pursuing a point with a raised voice makes my eyes cross in frustration... Yet equally many I recognise in myself; I can only hope they are the good points! :-) I am still confused somewhat.
