Our nails may reveal a lot about us, and so may our middle and index fingers, but so do the length of our pinkies (apparently).
A “personality diagnosis” on Korean website 1boon suggests that the length of our little fingers in relation to that of our ring fingers tells things about the type of person we are! Check yours out!
▼ Which type are you?
▼ A: Your little finger ends in line with the first joint of your ring finger.
You have a bright and humorous personality, and are often the mood-maker in a group. You have excellent interpersonal skills, and have no qualms about expressing your thoughts and emotions honestly. However, you tend to be afraid of loneliness, and thus put up a strong facade in front of others at times. Perhaps you could try not to read too deeply into things and try to be yourself for a change.
▼ B: Your little finger goes beyond the first joint of your ring finger.
You have a kind and generous personality, and are often the receiver of all types of love and affection. You know your feelings well and are capable of expressing them with your excellent communication skills. You dislike disputes and conflict, and tend to put in effort in maintaining harmonious relationships between people. Those who criticize your efforts have most likely misunderstood your gentle and peace-loving nature.
▼ C: Your little finger doesn’t reach the first joint of your ring finger.
You keep a lot of secrets and tend to find it difficult to speak your mind. You tend to have difficulties expressing your emotions or getting closer to someone, even if he/she is someone you have affection for. Also, you tend to have high expectations of others, and are sometimes greatly disappointed when they fail to meet the cut. However, you have a strong sense of duty to go all out to help someone whom you’ve acknowledged as a true friend of yours. Not thinking too much when it comes to building relationships, and gradually learning to accept help from others might help close the distance you put between yourself and others.
Was it spot-on for you? I’m a Type C, and I have to say, this thing is pretty accurate!
Of course, you don’t need us to tell you that it’s impossible to categorize the people of the world into merely three personality types, but it’s like some sort of ninja skill to be able to take a peek into the minds of others at a glance of their pinkies, isn’t it? Just bear in mind to take that peek with a pinch of salt!
