Mostly a,s
Marshmallow softie

You may be too soft and sweet for your own good. You get stuck doing things you don’t like to and give up what you want just to please others or to just keep the peace. Next time you start to soften ,ask yourself what it is that you really want or think. Then speak up and see what happens. You’ll feel stronger having done so.


Mostly b,s
Candy-coated peanut
You may be sweet on the outside but going nuts underneath. You know what you want and how you really feel about things. Your problem is you don’t say it. Don’t expect people to read your mind-speak up! Saying what you want may be hard at first, but it will get easier with practice.

Mostly c,s
Chocolate-chip cookie
You’re smart cookie who is chock-full of sweetness! You understand that its important to speak yourself in a semisweet way and let the chips fall where they may. People are likely to respect you honesty and confidence.
