I Give Good Lip

For as long as I can remember, I’ve had a minor obsession with any of the little things about us that could give insight into our behavior and personalities.

Astrology.

The lines in our hands.

Birth order.

Handwriting.

All of it fascinates me. Well, except for the handwriting one. I’ve got the handwriting of a 2nd grade boy, and so the handwriting ones always peg me as a serial killer – or something equally flattering.

For the record: I have never tortured any animals (with the exception of the live goldfish I flushed in college because I decided I hated cleaning it’s bowl – but that was an isolated incident), and I have never fantasized about killing anyone… at least; not since I was an angry hormonal teenager!

I think part of it comes from being so into psychology (yes, I can be just a tad bit analytical); the side of me that likes to figure out what it is that makes people tick. What drives them. What makes them who they are.

What makes me who I am.

So, when I discovered this article yesterday about what our lip imprints can say about us (yes, our lip imprints – I’m telling you, I'm a huge dork!), I immediately slathered on some lipstick (which I never wear) and kissed a piece of paper.


From there, I analyzed.

I didn’t think my lips completely matched any of the examples given, so I decided I fit in two categories: full upper lip and full lower lip.

I figured they were kind of even, so both must apply.

Here is what the article said my lip imprint says about me:

The full upper says the person is a wonderful listener and people like to cry on their shoulder and tell them their problems. They are good at helping others solve their problems.

A full lower says that children and pets adore them. On another note, it says that the person could be a writer, speaker or entertainer of some kind.

Kind of cool, right? And fairly right on… I mean, I’m not really a pet person (no offense to all you pet people, but as ready as I am for dirty diapers and toddler messes; I don’t have a ton of patience for pet hair on my things or pet poop on the floor. After living with two different roommates who each had dogs they didn’t properly take care of or train [so the poop situation was out of control] I am completely happy to have a pet-free house right now!) but beyond that? Pretty darn accurate.

And while this has nothing to do with anything, I just thought it was kind of cool. Especially because it said children adore me.

Because yes: they totally do. I'm good with kids. Always have been. A strong indicator, if you ask me, that I really do need one of my own!

So pucker up ladies (and you few straggler gentlemen) and give it a try.

What does your imprint say about you?
