Your question was: Match.com sucks?.
I got....
.
The Straight Shooter.
You've got a good mix of sass and sensitivity. Sure, sometimes he annoys you. But you do your best to finesse it with a sense of humor and the knowledge that, hey, he's only human. You know a good relationship (thru Match.com) is like 1940s movie banter it's all about the back and forth. Balance is key to you, and you excel at being a peacemaker and solving problems with a firm, but loving, hand. (And, let's face it a hand with a nice manicure.).
I am totally a Straight Shooter - that is when I have the nerve. But if you do get me talking - you will know what I'm thinking. I am a problem solver type with a strong now factor. I actually love 1940's movies and I have a terrible manicure. I have paper thin nails that I keep clipped very short. :0).

I also got the Straight Shooter, and I agree with that 100%. I always try to be honest but tactful at the same time in my relationships, and don't freak out if I have to take one for the team every so often.In a weird way, though, sometimes I feel like guys don't know how to deal with "our kind". I don't tend to sugarcoat things and if I am feeling upset about something, I don't play the passive aggressive game - if I'm mad, I say so, and if I'm not, I say that too. But guys will always assume that when I say, "I'm not mad," that I am lying and preparing to let them hear about it afterwards. It can take the charm off of playing it straight!..
Hi Nansense,.
Welcome to the board!!.
I think your right about men not always knowing what to do with a straight shooter. I have to admit that I've lost a little of this since I was a divorced a couple of years ago. I just want to be sure I'm not reacting out of old habits that my ex helped creat!!.

Great question. It's not just about expecting the guy to treat you well but treating him that way as well!.

I actually have to say that probably anyone with an ounce of common sense will wind up as Straight Shooter! ;-) You can tell what the "right" answers should be. The other categories would be Doormat or Psycho. Officially the categories are "Good Girl" and "Control Freak" - I went through and gave all the doormat answers and psycho answers to see. .
Quite honestly, I think it might have been a better quiz if you could see what percentage of each you were because all of us are a little bit of all of each. But it is cute and I think the answers DO show you what you SHOULD do rather than what a lot of women actually do and that is communicate in a mature manner rather than sulk, pout, scream or manipulate..
