I mention his markings because apparently in Japan when they find a cat with a Geisha pattern decorating its fur, they believe it’s the reincarnation of an ancestor.
They take the cat to a temple and give it a wonderful, protected life. Sounds like Gritty, aka Mr. Spoiledy-Pants. He couldn’t be more adored in Japan.
I wish I could post his picture. He’s somethin’ handsome, and quite the little devil.
Okay, now that I’ve gotten rid of that potential distraction, on to my favorite topic, Personality Profiling.
I’m a handwriting analyst and a face reader. I don’t have much natural “intuition” per se, so I wanted something else to help me “get” people.
At my local library I was ambling along to a section in the back when I passed a few books on handwriting analysis. I did a double-take and reached out for a yellow book with a red title that just popped out at me.
I don’t remember the title now, but I thought it was too cool to think that you could figure someone out by looking at their writing.
I was skeptical, but it reminded me of a date I had with a fellow who analyzed my writing over lunch. It intrigued me, but he said so much about me I could hardly take it all in. So at that time I didn’t pursue it.
Seeing this book brought on deja vu. I took it home and started practicing on anyone who dared let me.
The more I studied and analyzed and compared, the less suspicious I was. It takes some study and practice to put what you see in handwriting and faces into a comprehensive picture. If you think of people as being like a collage, not a poster, it’s easy to be ‘off’ when you first get started analyzing. Don’t let that fool you; that’s just inexperience talking. Stay encouraged and that goes away.
After a couple years of studying handwriting and face reading, I realized that romance, dating and relationships were of real interest to me also, so why not combine the two?
Today we often hear about women who end up battered or dead by the hands of some brute they were dating or married to. If only they could’ve seen the handwriting before getting involved! Or read the face and been wary of warning signs. Even taken a photo and some writing to a professional to have them analyzed.
But most people don’t know this option exists. Thus my website.
And to be fair to you fellas, how about helping you discover if a woman you want to date is low energy, or acquisitive or needy, or has a fear of poverty? And would like to you spot the gals who are smart, level-headed, more balanced?
‘Cause whatever your gender you know looks and a hot bod won’t cut it in the long run. Picking someone based on hormones is NOT smart. I help people use their brains as well as their instincts to choose a date.
Anyway, that’s little about me and why I do what I do. I love it. It really helps people to understand each other better.
And there’s nothing like having a fulfilling career, I highly recommend it.
If you’ve gotten this far, here’s something you might appreciate - my response to one of the questions I get the most. (Maybe I am psychic, predicting I’ll get a few Q’s on this and posting it in advance…)
Illegible handwriting seems to get lots of attention. I finally had to write down all the reasons a person might write poorly to save time in sharing.
So, should you date someone with messy handwriting or does it mean they’re cukoo? Should you divorce your wife or husband b/c they write like a slob? (Kidding, just kidding!)
Here’s my take:
Reasons for Messy Handwriting

(Go ahead and send this to a few friends, just be sure to include my website address.)
There are many explanations – or combinations of reasons – for someone to produce a “messy” or illegible handwriting sample.
Is it because they’re dangerous? A slob? An evil genius?
Those three issues don’t necessarily give themselves away in messiness alone. Here are more viable answers:
1. The writer is writing faster than they are used to.
2. The writer is extremely upset and/or angry.
3. S/he may be helpless in everyday affairs while a genius in some higher subject. Google Karl Marx’s handwriting for an example.
4. The writer is completely absorbed in what they are saying and not whether it is legible.
5. They may be trying to hide something or otherwise purposely trying to mislead.
6. The writer is generally careless, or being deliberately careless.
7. S/he suffers old age.
8. They are trying to write while in motion, during transport (plane, train, auto, hangglider, etc).
9. The writer is ill: they may have the flu, a neurological condition, high/low blood sugar, arm weakness, etc.
10. S/he is too defensive to share his/her true beliefs/reactions/feelings.
11. The writer suffers a mental condition.
12. He or she doesn’t care about communicating with others, for one of two reasons:
a. Notes taken may be for him/herself only (grocery list, class notes, etc.)
b. Has little desire to be understood by others. May be a rule-breaker, unpunctual, indolent, lazy.
Can you think of others? Drop a line with a genuine idea and I may add it to the list.
The best way to find out if any of these conditions apply is to ASK (politely of course). If you can’t ask the writer, asking someone close to them may help.
So it would seem there are some reasons you might avoid dating someone who writes terribly – they may be very dishonest, lazy, kinda rude or self-centered, or mentally or physically ill. Of course, it’s up to you to decide, I’m just the messenger. Good luck!
