Personalities Based on Blood Type

Introduction

In the society, there are millions of people with millions different personalities. Have you

ever wondered, where do all those personalities people have come from? Most of the people

seem to believe that all the personalities we detect in a person are developed by that person's

childhood, family, and the events he or she has been through that influence his or her life.

However, blood type, the types of blood categorized by the existence and absence of antibodies

(Schneider, 1996), is scientifically considered as one of the major factors that affect our

personalities as well. Blood type is classified into 4 types, which are type A, type B, type O, and

type AB. The blood type we have affects our thinking processes and reactions toward the

surroundings. Blood type can possibly be examined as the foundation of all the personalities we

have, since it is the only thing we carry with us ever since the first day of our lives. Moreover, it

also plays a huge role in the relationship we have with other people, due to the fact that our

actions toward things are the only things others can see. The purpose of this research paper is to

show the readers the detailed personalities of people based on their blood types. All of the

information will be explored in the following paragraphs.

 YOKAKUL 2

Type A

Initially, the research concludes that people with blood type A are noticeable of being

very well-organized and responsible (Spiritualism, 2018). They usually have the to do-list done

and stick to it. For example, if the things go completely different from the plan they made, they

will get frustrated. People with blood type A have many strengths and advantages. The most

iconic strength is the leadership. They can manage to control a group of many people without

making them feel uncomfortable. They value the opinion and believe that it is important to

everyone to have and share their own ideas. They always try to understand their points as much

as possible, which makes them the open-minded and understanding leaders. Nonetheless, this

strength leads them to the weaknesses. Even though they are always the leaders, they are

struggling on the lack of confidence. They need to make sure that none of the opinion from their

colleagues is being overlooked. They are sensitive and caring. Making sure no one is being

dismissed is their priority. Type A becomes the most overthinking type out of all four blood

types because of the duty to lead others. Another weakness is the inflexibility. As mentioned

above, they create a plan and stick to it. When they cooperate with other people, the habit of

always following the plan makes them look stubborn and selfish, even though the purpose is to

have everything done in the most successful way possible. Hence, type A people are very neat

and responsible. They are also known as the leaders when it comes to the event in the society.

How reliable and understanding they are make them a group of respectful leaders. However,

some flaws are recognized too. In spite of being known as the boss, they are very reserved and

sensitive.

All of the above are the detailed information of the noticeable personalities of the people

with blood type A. The strengths and weaknesses were explained for the readers to have more

understanding about this type, or the type A people themselves to know more about themselves

and find the appropriate way to cope with their lives.

Type B

Secondly, type B, the one with the positive thinking, is the next type of blood that will be

explored. People with the blood type B are very optimistic and carefree. They are those people in

the society who always have a large amount of positive energy to spread. They are confident

enough to expose their emotions and opinions. They are also very good at lightening up the

mood in the overall circumstance and getting along with new people without taking too much

effort. For that reason, people with this type of blood are also known as the fluent

communicators. Because of the positiveness they share, persuading and bargaining people is the

perfect job for type B, and later on, the ability to change other’s minds becomes the strength.

Moreover, since they are very carefree, they can easily let go the anger. To illustrate, people with

blood type B can easily be exasperated, but the negative mood can be changed very quickly.

As you can see, many strengths and remarkable habits are detected. Nonetheless, there

are some disadvantages of being a person with blood type B. They have a huge amount of

self-esteem and tend to overreact, which sometimes annoys other people. According to Landin

(2012), they are considered to be selfish, irresponsible and uncooperative. Type B makes people

alongside with them feel cheerful by nature, but they don’t have the intention to care about how
 YOKAKUL 4

will other people feel. So when it comes to cooperation, they tend to be either the ones doing the

whole thing without asking for help, or the ones having the least responsibility.

Thus, type B people are the positively active ones in the society. Their speeches seem to

be the most trustworthy judging from how optimistic they usually are. They are the most

comfortable group to be around, but not to work with. Type B people are self-centered and

overreacting. The lack of responsibility and the ability to cooperate are their biggest problems.

It’s difficult for others to be patient enough to work with them until the work is done without

having trouble along the way. Nonetheless, this type of people is needed for the society. Without

type B, the society won’t be the best place for everyone.

Type O

Thirdly, people with the blood type O are very dedicated, confident, enthusiastic and

Independent (Nakamine, 2017). Relationship with other people is considered one of the most

valuable things to type O. For that reason, they are devoted and protective when it comes to

people they care. They surround themselves with many people and tend to do everything they

possibly can and give everything they have to those people. Furthermore, they have loads of

confidence. Type O people are fearless enough make their own decisions, which make them the

most independent ones of the bunch. Type O respect and give themselves regards. For that

reason, they believe in human rights and freedom. They stand up for themselves and others.

Controlling or forcing type O to do things could be one of the most difficult things to do. They

are hard to persuade or bargain since they stick to what they believe. Additionally, they have

strong mentality and enthusiasm. Bravery play a big role in leading them to their goals. It makes
 YOKAKUL 5

them speak for themselves to get the finest they deserve and they have no intention of giving up

until their goals are beautifully accomplished.

However, every type seems to have some vulnerability. The same to type O, some

weaknesses are detected. They are sometimes cold, arrogant and ruthless. They are not the most

friendly people in the world at the first sight, unlike type B. Sass and arrogance are first things

type O will show you when first met. They are not the type to begin the conversation and try to

get to know other people first. Type O people are good friends, contrary, they are the worst

enemies you wish you have. They can be very rude and aggressive. Therefore, group O people

are respectful. They honor themselves as well as others.Confidence stands out the most among

all the basic personalities type O have. They have a proper amount of self-esteem and treat other

people the way they want to be treated. In effect, they are ready to be those evils and turn their

backs towards you and if you mistreat them.

Type AB

Lastly, people with blood type AB, the type with the least amount of population in the

world, are known to be the mysterious and complicated ones. They are strange mixtures between

type A and type B. They could be all shy and nervous like type A, on the other hand, can also be

sociable like type B. They tend to have the poker faces on, hiding their emotions behind the

resting faces so no one would be able to go through what they have in minds. They are

cooperative. They try their best to help in collaboration by doing everything they are asked or

assigned, but they can also be irresponsible (Brayer, 2014). In addition, type AB people are

talented and multi-tasking. They are capable of having several things properly done in a
 YOKAKUL 6

particular time, since they have a very wide range of passions. They are fortunate enough that

because of their capabilities, they've got so many opportunities to try new things in a certain

amount of time that most people haven't got and have no clue about. However, they have many

hidden flaws too. They can be seen as the emotionless because of how they look, so people

frequently mistreat or overlook them. Type AB are smart, but lack of responsibility. Also, the

complexity of personalities they have could be difficult for other people to cooperate with. Some

people find them eccentric. Hence, type AB people are complex and secretive. It could be hard to

reach to them because of the look they always give. Occasionally, they could be complete

different people because of the masks they put on and could be found as two-faced ones.

However, they have so many hidden skills that might take you aback. They are unpredictable,

sometimes they are extremely collaborative, but also irresponsible depends on their moods. For

that reason, there is no doubt why most people find them self-centered.

Conclusion

To summarize, four types of people categorized by four types of blood were explored in

detail in the paragraphs above. Each type of people has their own habits that stand out and can be

detected by the people surrounding them. Type A people are remarkable of being the responsible

leaders. In contrast, they are extremely sensitive, selfless and caring. People with blood type B

are very optimistic and outgoing, they can naturally make people around them feel comfortable.

They are completely different from type A, lack of responsibility, self-centered and carefree.

Type AB is the combination of type A and B, which make them look like two-faced people.

They are unpredictable, it's hard for people to reach out for them in the right time. Moreover,
 YOKAKUL 7

they are talented and multi-tasking. They can properly get many things done in a very less

amount of time. Lastly, type O people are the Independent and devoted ones. They have their

own standings and will stick to it. They believe in the right and speak out when they are

mistreated. They always have respect, both for themselves and others. As you can see, every type

are different from each other. Nevertheless, every type is needed in the society. Our community

won't be determined as the community if it has only one type of people. All the types must learn

to live together and adapt to make the society a better place to live.
