I think it's a pretty fair assessment.
Your result for The Attachment Style Test...
The Cuddleslut
33% Anxiety Over Abandonment and 22% Avoidance Of Intimacy

You're mostly secure, but sometimes you need a little extra reassurance to make it through the tough times. You are usually affectionate and sweet, and you find it easy to fall in love. An encouraging word from a crush or a loved one can motivate you for weeks.

The unicorn stands for maximum self-confidence and charisma, tempered by a sense of responsibility to others. In some ways, it can seem to fit you, though I also have seen bits of self-doubt and concern that render you a little less impervious and more approachable than that would imply.

The Insect
67% Anxiety Over Abandonment and 38% Avoidance Of Intimacy
You want to be emotionally intimate with others, but you find that others are reluctant to get as close as you would like. You don't have very high self-esteem, which leaves you with a bit of a tendency to grovel. You're ever so grateful when someone notices you, but you'll leave when you sense you're not wanted. You like other people more than you like yourself, but if someone takes advantage of you, you'll leave eventually.

Date: 2008-07-09 10:59 am (UTC)Mmm, you're right insofar as that "fearful" would (alas) probably be a better overall description than "preoccupied", but the description sounds mostly right. (Except for the "tendency to grovel" part; it's true that I don't exactly have a high self-esteem, but it manifests in a different fashion.) Of course, I have no idea who Peter Pettigrew is and whether he's anything like me, either, but still...

Date: 2008-07-09 11:26 am (UTC)An insect is a very well-adapted automaton. Nearly everything it does is by instinct, hard-wired. It has no emotion, forms no attachments, and displays no loyalties, in part because what passes for its brain is so tiny that there is no room for much of anything in there. I can't see you in that light either.
So there.
Of the "fearful" selections, I agree with you. Doormat doesn't fit you, but the other two might at least part of the time be accurate.

Date: 2008-07-09 11:56 am (UTC)As for the insect, that's a very good point as well, but the description still strikes me as relatively accurate for the most part, although the "insect" moniker is probably inaccurate (I've got to admit I didn't even really think about what that implied, and just took it as a catchy, if somewhat less than flattering, headline for the result).
Eh. *curls up in his tail* Mrf, I feel rather like Marvin at the moment, though. >.>

The Doormat
68% Anxiety Over Abandonment and 45% Avoidance Of Intimacy
You are uncomfortable getting close to others. You want emotionally close relationships, but you find it difficult to trust others completely. You don't believe you deserve very much, so you don't try very hard to win favor. You prefer to lie there until someone comes along to walk all over you. It's okay. You're used to being stepped on.

Date: 2008-07-10 09:49 am (UTC)I have lots of ups and downs, and my mood can change from normal to sad in a matter of minutes.
It is a bit like being manic depressive without the mania. :P

Date: 2008-07-09 08:35 pm (UTC)"You prefer to be alone, without strong emotional ties. You know from experience that people usually leave anyway, and that it's probably best that you don't get too attached. You prefer plenty of alone time, and have learned to entertain yourself. Part of you suspects that this is more to protect others than yourself."
Meh, I dunno. But I do know that Hiro and Kaylee are two characters towards whom I immediately and consistently felt incredibly strong protective urges. Now I just need to find a cuddleslut who doesn't like touching and I'm all set!

Date: 2008-07-09 09:22 pm (UTC)Now lessee, "a cuddleslut who doesn't like touching" could be a tough call. Don't think I've run into one of those yet.
