I stole this from Secret Agent Josephine. I have always loved Doris Day. I have to say I agree with some of this. Especially the part about being a parent and not being able to say no. I don't think I'm nearly as needy or insecure as it indicates, though. Oh well, it's all in good fun and since I don't have any new videos or pics of Sadie from today...this is today's post!
You Are a Doris!
You are a Doris -- "I must help others."
Dorises are warm, concerned, nurturing, and sensitive to other people's needs.
How to Get Along with Me
* Tell me that you appreciate me. Be specific.
* Share fun times with me.
* Take an interest in my problems, though I will probably try to focus on yours.
* Let me know that I am important and special to you.
* Be gentle if you decide to criticize me.
In Intimate Relationships
* Reassure me that I am interesting to you.
* Reassure me often that you love me.
* Tell me I'm attractive and that you're glad to be seen with me.
What I Like About Being a Doris
* Being able to relate easily to people and to make friends
* Knowing what people need and being able to make their lives better
* Being generous, caring, and warm
* Being sensitive to and perceptive about others' feelings
* Being enthusiastic and fun-loving, and having a good sense of humor
What's Hard About Being a Doris
* Not being able to say no
* Having low self-esteem
* Feeling drained from overdoing for others
* Not doing things I really like to do for myself for fear of being selfish
* Criticizing myself for not feeling as loving as I think I should
* Being upset that others don't tune in to me as much as I tume in to them
* Working so hard to be tactful and considerate that I suppress my real feelings
Dorises as Children Often
* Are very sensitive to disapproval and criticism
* Try hard to please their parents by being helpful and understanding
* Are outwardly compliant
* Are popular or try to be popular with other children
* Act coy, precocious, or dramatic in order to get attention
* Are clowns and jokers (the more extroverted Dorises), or quiet and shy (the more introverted Dorises)
Dorises as Parents
* Are good listeners, love their children unconditionally, and are warm and encouraging (or suffer guilt if they aren't)
* Are often playful with their children
* Wonder: "Am I doing it right?" "Am I giving enough?" "Have I caused irreparable damage?" * can become fiercely protective
