EQ = 15
SQ = 23
I know that can't be right, because apparantly most autistic people score around 20 on the EQ test. I mean, I'd like to think I'm at least ADEQUATE in social situations. I didn't purposefully TRY to be all "oh lol I hate emotions" I'm just never very good with these self-assesment tests. The systemizing one seems about right though, I'm low end of average which seems correct since I've never been big on strict organization with most things.
Either that or I'm a complete wasteland of humanity, as apparantly I've niether type of brain. Soulless monster, I guess. Shrug. The internet.

Funny that an INTERNETS test is supposed to test my people skills. EQ was 20. SQ... won't load?

Give it a min, it probably will, I had to come back to it too.
Funny thing is according to the quiz I have great ppl skills, which I guess I do in that I can deal with people easily as long as I have on my "outside persona" which I dont really feel like is me at all, but I still can do it. But I much prefer quiet and solitude, so I dont know what that means. Probably that Im a big fat phoney.
Plus anyone could get any score on the thing they wanted, the questions are so fucking obvious that its almost impossible to not know what answers to pick to get a high score, though I think I was pretty accurate.

Right, we're far too smart to answer truthfully.

I agree with Briareros and metal down. I thought my score would be higher.
My roommate is the kind of guy who's 'good' at social situations. You ask in a cool downplayed way if he got drunk the night before, he'll say yes. You ask in a more direct questioning matter, he'll say no. He's a tool almost. Of course what I try to do is not have that social mask in social situations, I hate it. And the best way to be against something is not doing it yourself.
One of the questions was like "You're very good at establishing the social rules in a conversion" Wha? No.. Why should I, am I a lesser man for it? But really this test all goes down to EMPATHY not social skills. Becoming all emotional and losing sleep over the smallest matter makes you win points in this empathy test apparently. Also isn't everyone good at knowing when someone doesn't want to talk, when something is on their mind? See the guy trying to impress the girl, "you seem sad, what is it"(he barely has a clue), well we all do it, and become good at it.
I also find it funny how a person will get no respect if they come out in an awkward manner, think about it, does that diminish what they're saying?
I also find it interesting that the average EQ for men is 42, women 47. Just like we knew, the average person is pretty good at these things, the good and bad.(including the man)

The first time around, my EQ score was 40. But, I felt odd about this score, so I took it again.
EQ score=40(1st time)
EQ score=47(2nd time)
SQ score=40
I think I've taken these quizes before, about a year or so ago.

Yeah, I thought that was ironic too.
