We all draw and write things in different ways based on how we learned it in school and then adding our own personal flair to it, but a new study says that how you draw the letter "X" says more about your personality than you thought!
You can see the original post below of the different ways to draw the letter "X" and we've also included the descriptions for each different type of personality:
- If you draw your X with two reverse strokes, starting from the lower right, it indicates that while you may want to move forward, you have both feet stuck in the past.
- If you draw both lines moving forward, yet starting in reverse—from bottom left, then the bottom right—you are a renegade. You have a strong desire to slingshot yourself out of your past and move forward, yet the past still has its grips on you.
- The reversed strokes—starting top right—demonstrate that you're a rebel without a cause.
- Because only your second stroke is drawn the "normal" way—top right to bottom left— it implies that while you're trying to focus on the future, a part of you is still tempted to go backwards, as if you're driving while looking only through the rearview mirror.
- The first half of this X—drawn from top right to bottom left—is made "correctly," but the 2nd—drawn from bottom left to top right—is written in reverse direction, revealing that you're a maverick. It feels good to live by your own rules, doesn't it?
- Because you start your stroke from bottom left, and out of order, you're a trendsetter—and you own it.
- This is how you were likely taught in school to write your letters, going from left to right. That indicates that you don't tend to stray from the norm—and you like order and balance.
- Like most of these choices (besides #7), if you start from the top right, you prefer to think outside of the box.
