There’s a long list of tells when it comes to determining the type of person someone is. How you like to spend your Saturdays, your favourite ice cream, your preferred sleep position and even your physical appearance … these are just some of the many ways you show off who you are. Now, it turns out, the way you hold your phone may tell people what kind of personality type you are.
There are 4 common ways that people hold their phone. Let’s look at what those ways are and what they say about you:
1. YOU HOLD YOUR PHONE WITH ONE HAND AND USE YOUR THUMB TO TYPE AND SCROLL
If this is how you hold your phone, you are:
- Carefree
- Optimistic
- Self-assured
You quickly adapt to whatever life throws at you. Complaining isn’t your thing – you make the best out of any situation and are always on the lookout for new opportunities.
This means you actively pursue your goals, even when there’s an obstacle in front of you. You are always willing to take risks and try things outside of your comfort zone if the situation calls for it.
2. YOU HOLD YOUR PHONE WITH BOTH OF YOUR HANDS BUT ONLY USE ONE THUMB TO TYPE AND SCROLL
If this is how you hold your phone, your personality type is:
- Pragmatic
- Intuitive
- Wise
This type of phone holder is more cautious and avoids taking risks. You would rather take your time than suffer a loss.
You’re also incredibly empathetic and caring. This makes you good at reading people, which helps you avoid being taken advantage of.
3. YOU HOLD YOUR PHONE WITH TWO HANDS AND THEN TYPE AND SCROLL WITH BOTH THUMBS
If this is how you hold your phone, you are:
- Intelligent
- Versatile
- Energetic
- Carefree
If you fall into this group, you are always trying to solve problems and enjoy analyzing things. You don’t have a tendency to avoid change. You see it as an opportunity to find the right solution to help you adapt.
When interacting with people, you’re able to adjust your energy for the situation at hand. With children, you are carefree and high energy. When having an intellectual conversation, you are more composed and serious.
4. You hold your phone with one hand and use your index finger on the other hand to type and scroll
If this is how you hold your phone, you are:
- Creative
- Imaginative
- Spontaneous
People who hold their phone this way like to think outside of the box and are constantly coming up with unique and innovative ideas. You also have a big imagination.
When you first meet people, you tend to keep to yourself. But once you are comfortable, you are outgoing with a very unique personality.
If you hold your phone a different way … you're an enigma. Your personality type will remain a mystery until we discover the next way to uncover the type of person you are.
