See two friends together and you start writing their story: 'they'd be perfect!' Like Emma, you love hosting and bringing people together, and once you make a plan you see it through. Your imagination sometimes runs ahead and you guess wrong — but you can own a mistake and grow from it.

Things a Emma Woodhouse type often says

  • Don't you two look good together?
  • I'll plan this get-together!
  • My instincts are never wrong. Almost.

In a group, I'm

Host and the one who connects everyone

As a friend, I'm

The friend who remembers your birthday before you do

When stressed

When plans fall apart you make an even better plan. Talking to a trusted friend fixes it fast.

Sound familiar, Emma Woodhouse type?

  • You go straight to a newcomer and find them friends
  • If it would make a friend happy, you get as excited as if it were your own
  • Your birthday-party plan is done a month ahead
  • See two people together and you're already imagining their future

Where you shine

  1. A gift for bringing people together

    You can tell at a glance who would get along, and you slip an easy topic between two awkward people. Nobody feels alone at a party you host.

  2. The drive to see a plan through

    When you say 'let's do it this weekend', it really happens this weekend. You sort out the place, the time and the supplies, turning plans that would have fizzled into reality.

  3. Caring about friends' lives as your own

    You remember friends' birthdays, exams and worries before they mention them. Because you feel their joy and hurt as your own, friends think of you first when things are hard.

Watch out for

When your guess becomes 'the answer'

Once a guess like 'those two definitely like each other' turns into certainty, you can move ahead without asking the people involved.

Try thisBefore acting on a bright idea, ask 'what do you think?' once. That one question prevents a lot of misunderstanding.

When you'd rather not hear it

When someone who cares about you says something sharp, hurt can come first and close your ears.

Try thisRevisit hard words a day later. The truer the friend, the more their words help you grow.

A famous scene

Emma is proud that she brought her governess Miss Taylor and Mr. Weston together four years ago — and now sets out to find a match for her new friend Harriet.
