… I ask in the very revealing test I invented today. With it, I had my (male) classmates discover what kind of Don Juan they are … You wanna join them? 😉

a) that she is looking beautiful. (A)

At the table, …

A majority of As : You are the perfect old-style knight. You put women on a pedestal. However, you might think over your methods – the Middle Ages are over !

A majority of Bs : You really understand what modern women want. They feel flattered by your attention but not hassled. Still, take care : there is a little princess in every woman. And princesses sometimes need a knight …

A majority of Cs : Seriously, there is a long way to go until you are Don Juan (be it the old-style or the modern one). You sometimes try to seduce with a James Bond attitude, but you tend to be too cool and egocentric to make women’s hearts beat faster. Try some romantic novels !
