One of the “girls on phlegm” (1980s song reference, showing my age!)

Although, any one of us can react in ways when the need is there that are atypical for us, we tend to have a temperament that does not really change through our lives.

Basically, cholerics are goal oriented. They always have a need to be doing something. Melancholics have a need to be always solving a problem. Sanguines are always wanting to find somebody to talk to or seek out new situations. Phlegmatics like to have things calm.

There are a few people who seem to draw qualities from all four categories. Usually, it’s because they are highly phlegmatic and that their secondary quality is flavouring their primary temperament.

Most of us are at least a little bit multi-temperamental.

Thanks for simplifying.

powerful cholerics
popular sanguines
peaceful phlegmatics
perfectionistic melancholies

I'm a melancholy-phlegmatic blend

Real ones, at least.

I have 2 red haired daughters, and one red-haired grandson, so I have done my part—LOL!
