OK so the test doesnt allow me to be both an introvert and an extrovert, which i am. Along with most of the other defined opposites. I fit into both sides of the spectrum and also into more than one personality description
I've always been a little bit of everything so what do i define myself as?
Personality tests are fun to take and you´ll probably find a lot of accuracy regarding the available answers, but in the end you and your doings define yourself.
I agree to what PoLa said. But if you want to gain some more information about you - why don't you ask two or three close friends to fill out the test for you the way they would describe you? It's often very interesting and surprising to learn how others see us. And brings a lot of fun, too!
The appropriate term would be ambivert for this description, I think. Personally, I think it would be remarkable for an individual to have all factors of both perfectly balanced - perhaps impossible to ever achieve without contradiction. This possibility would be dependent on the factors assessed for formulation of a conclusion with this dichotomy.
How are you establishing the criteria for the two? I think it is feasible for you to ascertain which one of these two you to the highest extent when the spectrum is defined clearly with elaborations. However, I certainly understand if you decide to categorize yourself as an 'ambivert' for falling in the middle range, for it would be difficult to determine when the two are incredibly close.
For example, people are neither completely moral or immoral, but they are one of the two to a higher degree. Certain people may appear 'amoral', but they definitely have an evident preference when all of the relevant data is examined in a logical manner.
I would only accept that a human is neither immoral or moral when they have lost all characteristics which define us as human, thus their existence as a human is questionable. Any human possessing the required differences to be subjected to this analysis which considers them as 'amoral' would have evolved from our standards in which we categorize humans.
U rigth Catalyst of Wisdom, Not everything is always Black or White. There was one variation that I particularly call: Almost there!!!!!!!!!!! I'm a million different people from one day to the next," but there are a few things about which I am fairly constant. I am a cynical idealist and have an unwavering love for adventure, sarcasm, and chocolate. No reason to Fear when you can dream and you can be idealistic! It’s a bureaucracy, though, layers and layers of management and administration around dreams and ideals, depending on how much we dare and dare not, how much we need and need not, how much we spend and how much we spare. Only those with direction and movement are free. The rest have the illusion of freedom: dreams and ideals.
I think u may choose to disagree, you’re free to do so and dream up your own view of the world, turn it upside down and inside out and twist the knobs and turn the dials to find an ideal balance that better suits, but who’s to say you’ve really done a thing or if it just appears so?

Hey, I also had this problem with the test. I fit into the Dreamy Idealist and Spontaneous Idealist descriptions. So I'm wondering if I should say I'm a Dreamy-spontaneous Idealist? aha. I don't know, maybe you could define yourself like that?
Personally, I think instead of just single colored options, there should also be in-between options. Which is where we'd fit in. :]
