This makes you a Roving Spouse.<\/p>\n<p>You are magnetic, charming, and impossible to resist. You have no problem with approaching the opposite sex &#8212; it just comes naturally to you, and the thrill of warming up a stranger is one of your great drives. Still, very few people really know you. You don&#8217;t just *feel* misunderstood &#8212; you are. You are probably nursing a heartache that you never let on.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;re calm in a conflict (almost *too* calm &#8212; a more emotional partner may wonder why you&#8217;re not more engaged) and quick with affection. Fighting makes you uncomfortable, but as you avoid direct conflict your frustrations can manifest in the cold shoulder and passive-aggression, which is no better! Still, you make a loving, doting parent &#8212; giving more love than discipline &#8212; and your children prefer you.<\/p>\n<p>Like an XSYG, you put so much thought and effort in what you give to your partner that you feel dismissed and unappreciated if you don&#8217;t get the same in return. You also give and think so much that you can also talk yourself into cheating &#8212; physically or emotionally &#8212; and this can lead a cycle of conflict, guilt, conflict-avoidance, chilly atmosphere and then more cheating. But you&#8217;ll stay with your partner in the long run from guilt and a desire to please.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ve got to open up! You express and give so much of yourself in other ways &#8212; don&#8217;t be afraid to express what&#8217;s bothering you.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m only being so hard on you because you remind me of me.<\/p>\n<p>Of the 22777 people who have taken this quiz, 9.7 % are this type.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>eXpressive: 8\/10 Practical: 7\/10 Physical: 7\/10 Giver: 6\/10 You are a XPYG&#8211;Expressive Practical Physical Giver.
