Or maybe both?

What do you do more of, starting things or carry on what others have started? Leader or follower? Giver or receiver? Do you host things or more of a guest? Driver or passenger?

Do you ask others out or wait to be asked?
Do you take responsibilty or let others do things for you? What is most natural for you. Just things to think about. I tend to think for singles we start things more than those who are coupled. Why because we dont tend to lean on other people and more self reliant or independent. If we want to do something, we tend to go ahead and do it and are not used to waiting round for others to make a decision. I think this is a positive thing and for singles its important to be around like minded, positive people who can do things rather than wait around for others to live your life and go at your own pace. Nobody needs to hold you back on your journey.

I think those who arent used to being single may find this hard?

Hmmm....Oddly enough I tend to be the one to ask for something or the first to tell a guy I like them. As far as giving I think I’m kinda in the middle. I enjoy giving but am not guilt ridden if I receive.

If there’s a pet involved though you better gang way cuz I’m gonna ask to pet them and walk them and give them treats.

I wish you created a poll for all the million questions you’ve asked in your post.

I’m a giver and I can both either lead or follow.

I’m a driver but can also be a passenger.

sorry Mel you can create another poll if you want, I dont have monopoly on this topic.

Interesting I would say I am more of a type B as opposed to a type A. But there are all different types of people, and its not just blood type.

some research has shown Type As are more prone to heart attacks, or car crashes and other dramatic deaths so they need to chill out, but there hasnt been much research on what type Bs die of. Do they fall into comas? Or is it they are so chilled out already, that dying in bed is as natural as going to sleep.

And then theres of course your hybrid type ABs. That either have the best of both worlds or are just too doubleminded to make descisions.

I'm having trouble figuring out what the root question is...

Are we asking "Are you a giver or taker?"

Are we asking "Are you a leader or follower?"

Are we asking "Are you an initiater or a passive observer?"

The thread title and OP indicate all these, and I'm wondering which one I should answer. I can't answer all of them with one answer because they are widely disparate questions.

I would ask these questions, but the one who could answer can't see anything I say. Oh well. Maybe it will become more clear as the thread continues.

you can give each other blood.
Apparently AB's cant give, only receive unless giving to someone of the same blood type.

I sometimes wonder if blood type has anything to do with how compatible people are. dont doctors have to test for this? something to do with RH, because if its incompatible, you will have complications in childbirth or something.
