Personality test: What you see first reveals if you are ‘straight forward’ or ‘silent’ in arguments

Here is one such interesting image that first appeared on social media due to a recent video by the optical illusion specialist account @psychologylove100, reported Express UK.

To attempt this test, all you need to do is tell us what you see first in the image shared above. Is it a shark or a man? Based on what you noticed first, read the interpretation of your personality below.

If you see a shark first

If you see a shark first, then you are a very confident person. People find you approachable and sensible enough to understand what they have to say. You also have the ability to stand out from the crowd. If you get into an argument, you are fearless and will confidently put forth your point of view. You are adamant and it is difficult to convince you to change your mind, whether you are right or wrong.

The optical illusion specialist said: “When we get to know you, we soon discover that you are a straightforward person. You don’t hesitate to say what’s on your mind without mincing your words. Your frankness is sometimes misinterpreted by those around you, but this has little effect on you.”

If you see a man first

If you observe a man first, then it shows you are more soft-hearted and kind. You are quite forgiving in nature. People are automatically attracted to you for your compassionate nature.

Sometimes, you can be shy, especially if you are trying something new and out of your knowledge or comfort zone. You have an easy-going personality and your friends love your funny nature. You hate conflicts and arguments, even if you are not personally involved.

The optical illusion specialist said: “If the person you are talking to still disagrees with you then well that’s okay. You won’t get into a conflict with them.” One of your life mantras is ‘silence is golden.’
