Imo it was entertaining but not very scientific.
I ran into the same problem.

They have no partnered category.

When I put my category in as married I got this:

Life 6.8
Mind 8.1
Body 4.3
Spirit 9.6
Friends/Family 7.8
Love 9.1
Finance 6.4


Honestly, this tells me what I already know. I could lose a few pounds (I'm a tad too matronly for my tastes) I have high blood pressure (genetic) and my job drives me crazy.

Otherwise, my life is damn near perfect.

Lol--I was a frigging sad-sack according to this survey. But I'm not in real life.

I'm widowed for 8 years now for a reason--and it isn't mis-guided loyalty! I'm happy single. My dog is MORE than enough company...

So that survey is fun, but a big bit of doo-doo IMO.

No survey will accurately assess everyone. that's like saying that size 12 jeans are going to fit every woman.

These things should be taken in the spirit of fun and not taken seriously.

I have no idea how they arrived at that whole family thing being so low, but whatever. Overall, I can say I am pretty happy. It was odd that it asked for my advice about the body though. I am healthy but definitely not a model in build. LOL

ROTFLMAOL!!! I'm sure KOS could sympathize with you there as well...Considering that no matter how many times others have been corrected by her and ourselves that she's not a 'he'...The same people still think KOS is a homosexual male. ROTFLMAOL!!!

I've never thought she was anything but a female...probably from a post I've seen from her right off the bat, but the fact that the word "Knight" is in her username gives a good reason for the possible confusion...

And I can tell you that KOS is not a homosexual male, but a beautiful lady with a lovely voice.
