1. I don't answers questions (about myself) easily and when I do, I will only answer what is being asked. My first thought is often "where are you going with this?" Until I've figured it out, I will only give you so much. You try to play coy or come at me in a passive way and that gets sliced in half. Meaning, I will provide you with even less answers.

2. No idea. I don't go "in" with the intention of testing someone. If you do something I find unfavorable I use it to assess your character and it will now impact how I interact with you going forward (e.g. take you more or less seriously, trust you or not, etc).

3. No response. Very little surprises me about people and what they will/won't do, are capable of or willing to do to prove a point. If it is something that requires me to have my defenses up, trust I already planned for it. I make slight adjustments, but you won't see me blink. If it was something to try to earn my respect, I make note of it, but my mind rarely changes about a person once it has been made up. So the dynamics won't change between us. If I respected you before, that is not something you will lose too easily. If I didn't before you grew a pair, it will probably never happen. No matter what you do. You truly can't win with me in that regard.

4. No. I am observing to see if your actions match your words though. Most people aren't as "what you see is what you get" as they claim to be.

Until I know you and feel comfortable, personal questions will be answered with caution or a "why do you ask" response. If the answer to that is vague, you'll get vague.

I don't need to test, I can distinguish a lot from body language & eye contact. I'll ask questions based off of what you already shared with me. Liars are not good at keeping track of their lies.

I usually can tell what a person's capabilities are in a very short amount of time. Nothing surprises me.

I live for what you see is what you get. Not too many people unfortunately are capable of that though.
