I have a talent for getting other people to do what I want. ~Cheating on your partner is OK so long as you don’t get caught. *I find it easy to keep myself together in situations when others are cracking under pressure. ~If I am able to con someone, that’s their problem. They deserve it. Score each: 0, 1, 2, 3
