So thats me- Blue.
Gold people are responsible, very organized and like lists, bins, and being in charge. They don't like it when people are late or messy. Their motto is"Be Prepared." I think mom's have to have a little gold in them. My mom is gold!
Dustin is green! Which is crazy because he's my opposite. Most the women at enrichment thougth their husbands were green or orange. Opposites attract!
Green people are nature lovers and love to learn. They are calm and cool, aloof. They are problem solvers, smart, fair and hard working. They like to work alone and don't express their feelings well.
Blue people love to be with family and friends and don't like to argue. They want everyone to get along. They like to talk and listen. They're romantic, loving and sweet. (See above list)
Orange people learn by doing. They are very active and free. They get bored easy and are restless. They like sports and competition and strive to be the center of attention. They are loud, physical and seek thrills.
This activity was given so we could better understand ourselves and others. By seeing what color others are, we can better understand them. I showed my list to Dustin and made him look at his list too. He wasn't to excited. But seeing what his needs are and what my needs are I think really helps! I need to talk and he needs to think first. I need love notes and dates - he likes to be alone sometimes. So compromising and being aware of each other! Who would've thought.
Now what color are you and your husband (kids, family, etc)?
