Why ask your friends?
We aren't the only experts on ourselves. Psychologist Simine Vazire's self–other knowledge asymmetry model suggests that we tend to know our inner states (like anxiety) best, while friends can be as good or better at judging visible, outward traits (like how talkative or decisive we are). A friend's view isn't more correct than yours; it shows the side of you that people actually meet.
How it works
- Enter your first name (or a nickname) and make your mirror link.
- Send it to 3 to 5 friends. Each answers six quick questions about you.
- They get a link back for you. When you open it, the answer is saved in your browser only.
