What it means:
10 - 16: Me first
You think you're preety important and you expect your friends to think so, too. You expect them to accommodate all your needs and your huge ego. Friendship's not important to you unless you benefit from it - and your friends know this and don't appreciate it. Every once in a while, try giving back to your friends as much as you take - you may be surprise to learn what true friendship is all about.
17 - 23: Caring and sharing
You're a good friend who knows that being caring, honest and loyal is really important in a true friendship. You're lucky because you have balanced friendships where you and your ates look after each other and don't always just take advantage of others. You can count on your friends to be there for you and they can always count on you. They know you're a true friend.
24 - 30: Full-on friend
You put a lot of effort into your friendships and you always want the best for others, but do your friends appreciate you for it? It's all very well to think about them but don't forget to take care for yourself as well. You naturally give a lot and true friends won't take advantage of this - they'll always stick by you. Watch out for users who see how nice you are and try to cash in on it.
