It's funny, I always have considered myself a Type A, but the Type B definition above actually sounds quite a bit like me too. I will call myself a recovering Type A. Type A Minus.
I guess I am type B because I am a lazy procrastinator and not very goal driven. But I have the anxiety levels of a type A person. In fact, my type B qualities make me anxious. lol. It's a constant internal struggle.
This is exactly me too. Can we create a type C for this?
Type A. Including the negative parts unfortunately, like a short fuse, impatient, etc. Although, I am surprisingly patient with my kids. But adults, not so much. I think it's because I expect kids to still be learning, developing, questioning, etc. But adults, no, I've got very little patience. This is no a good thing I realize and I'm trying to work on it.
Eta: a coworker asked me a few years ago If I knew what a Type A+ personality was. I said, I don't know, an extreme Type A?. He said, oh because that's what Coworker B said you were. I just laughed and said, uh huh, I can't really argue with that lol.

Type A married to an even Typer A. Nothing is relaxed and laid back in our schedules/lives lol.
My h swears he is type B but trust me, no type B asks to see the month's schedule at the end of every month or reminds me that it is 5.58pm and dd needs to start eating at 6pm Every.single.night. God forbid we are a minute late. He drives me crazy.
I have tendencies for both but I don't think I fall squarely into one type.
This. Although this board makes me think I am much more Type B than I would have previously thought (based on the things I am "breezy" about or just don't care about).
