For example, anyone who knew my dad would say I act exactly like him, which is a high compliment in my book. There are some folks who love the mountains while others are more beach people. The list can go on and on. But can behaviors and mannerisms depict your personality...and how?

Here's what the experts say: slow eaters have self-control and are more appreciative while fast eaters are go-getters and goal-oriented. If you're adventurous with your eating habits, you enjoy pushing yourself out of your comfort zone.

You would think that people who run late are a tad irresponsible. However, science disagrees. One study even shows that those who slide in late are actually more focused on details.

The Way You Shake Hands

It seems that if you have a firm handshake you could be a very expressive extrovert. A loose one can mean you're likely to be shy.

Your Eye Contact

If you look someone square in the eyes longer and more often, you may be more outgoing. Introverted and shy people tend to not make as much eye contact.

How's Your Handwriting?

The studies behind this say folks who write in larger letters are more people-oriented, as opposed to those who are introverted and write smaller. The different directions your letters slant can imply sentimentality, pragmatism, or introspection.

Here's another big one. If you're a dog person, it's usually a sign you're energetic and outgoing. Cat people are more introverted and sensitive.
