  • I'm stubborn and stingy like both of my parents :rotfl:

    Also I'm sometimes too nice for my own good like my mum!

    I'm my mum... It's a joke how similar we are. Our bodies are the same. I have her cough and sneeze. I am a splitting image in temperament and I hate it lol!!! She's a dragon. But I have my daddy's humour which is great... But I pretty much am my mum.

    I have expensive taste like my parents but, much the same as them again, I don't often buy things, I save up and have to really want something before I buy it - we don't spend money easily.

    I'm also quiet. They, too are reserved. I suppose I can be a little sensitive like my mum. If pushed I can also have a temper like my dad. He would never hurt anyone but does have a temper.:laugh:

    My husband is like both of his parents too. Stubborn, strong-willed and blunt like his mum (I like to think I've softened these traits in him a bit) :undecided
    He's always attached to his computer like his father - they both can be quite happy in their own company a lot too (whereas I'm a bit more needy)

  • I am very creative like my mother and notorious like my father.
