are you a cute little minion?? follower?



or a leader??

come my pretties come follow me......to your dooooommm!!



here is a good video, which explains why people follow you (many variables, for example, do they follow you because of your character? your morals? your power? ect ect)

I'm no fool, no, I'm not a follower
I don't take things as they come
If they bring me down
I'd say I'm both.

I know when to give orders, and when to take them. It all depends on situation.

I can judge intelligence more then anything, so if someone knows more about somthing then me I'm going sit back and pay attention. If someone is sitting behind me I love to lead however.

none. i'm a loner. i don't like following nobody and i sure as hell don't like no one following me. i don't abide by noones orders. and i don't like being told what to do. it's best to be none. leader nor a follower.

i don't get the feeling that people would follow you, as AirMan. lol

no offense. Tongue

Neither Lisa, i am not a sheep but i also have no desire to lead people (help but not lead)

I don't conform to society's standards or expectations


Am an individual and slightly eccentric Tongue

it's a great responsibility to be a leader, star. i read that they'd have to have alot of cardinal in their charts.

LOL. I did the quiz and apparently I am both leader and follower.

Which is kind of accurate. I only lead if no one else will lead (and there are plenty of those around).

i can see you as a leader. you're patient enough too. and you won't get too "short" on them. someone who has a loooooonnnngggggg threshold.

Theres nothing wrong with "following" in certain scenarios, the best leaders are the best followers, they are servants to their people. I am a leader because I have direction in life.

for me i can resonate to this the most. lol

but i still conform in some way. i like to merge into society but be my own individual.
i dont like to lead at all, but i'd rather follow a good leader.
or i just won't follow them at all.

lisabethur8, come on. i don't go by my dxp username in real life. and even if i did, it would indeed be a delightful pleasure to not being followed. as a matter of fact, it would benefit me greatly if people pretend they never even saw me. even as Mr. Gibson, my real life name.

if you were really "AirMan" in real life, no one would see you anyway, Always up in the air. lol

you could go through life invisible, watching and observing.
