BBC Personality test

I'm a Realist.

What's with all the shopping questions. We Realists don't shop!
 
Yes, I'm a realist too. I knew I would be but was hoping for different results.

I wonder if one can actually change their personality or if it's ingrained by the time we are perceptive enough to understand ourselves.

To some extent I think you can. Either by making a concious effort to behave a certain way, or by a major change in environment. Some things will remain, but some things can change.
 
Maybe. My entire personality is geared a certain way.

I'm honest, loyal, dependable, patient, kind, thoughtful, logical, respectful, and honorable. These are all good traits.

What I am not...is fun. I'm not spontaneous, dynamic, intriguing, extroverted, or passionate. These are all things I would like to be.

Can I recreate myself without losing the best aspects of my current personality. Or, am I always going to be "that nice smart guy"?

Yeah, well, there's an example. I don't drink, smoke, or take any sort of drugs.

In fact, I've never even tried any of the three. I also can't dance.

Therefore, it seems odd for me to go to a club or bar because it would be hard to interact with someone when I'm not sharing any of their current activities. I don't want to smoke, drink, or take drugs of course.

I would dance but I'm completely tone deaf. I couldn't get the beat if I was sitting inside of the drum!

So what now?

I think your personality changes throughout your entire life. I used to be very different then I am now. This is the road life's lessons have led me down. It works for me, but I do see your point. Yes, I think you can make a concious decision to change to some degree, but you are where you are for a reason.
