Personality flaw test

It's not always easy to tell if a person you are in a relationship with has serious personality or character flaws. But Dr. Stuart Yudofsky, chairman of the Menninger Department of Psychiatry at Baylor College of Medicine, has a new book out called "Fatal Flaws" that may help. He suggests asking yourself the following 10 questions.
1.	Do I trust this person?	Yes No
2.	Has this person "come through" on important commitments?	Yes No
3.	Do I feel better about myself as a consequence of this relationship?	Yes No
4.	Does this person consider my needs equally to his or hers?	Yes No
5.	Is this person sensitive to and supportive of me?	Yes No
6.	Will this person communicate with me honestly on significant issues affecting our relationship?	Yes No
7.	Is this person honest with other people and trustworthy in his or her other relationships?	Yes No
8.	Do I (and, if applicable, do my children) always feel physically safe with this person?	Yes No
9.	Does this person respect rules and obey laws?	Yes No
10.	Do other whom I love and trust the most believe this person is good for me?	Yes No
