What Does Your Handwriting Say About Your Personality?

The study of handwriting is known as graphology and has been practiced for hundreds of years. Professional forensic graphologists have worked on many court cases to use handwriting to link suspects with crimes.
According to graphologists worldwide, there is very little you cant tell from a persons handwriting. From physiological conditions like high blood pressure and schizophrenia to personality traits like dominance and aggression: if you can write by hand, graphologists can analyze you. Everything from the size of your letters to how closely you space words can reveal intricate details of your personality. Here are some of the most common handwriting features that explain you!
1. Letter size
In general, the size of your letters can reveal whether you are shy or outgoing. Compared to a standard lined sheet of paper, if you write with tiny letters that do not reach the top line, you are likely to have a timid and introverted personality. If you write with large letters that go over the top line, you are the opposite: outgoing, confident and attention-seeking.
2. Word spacing
Studies suggest that those that space words widely like freedom and independence, whereas those choosing to write with small spaces prefer to be among others and hate to be alone.
3. Dotting your is
The way you dot, or dont dot, your is says a lot about your personality; those placing the dot high have imaginative personalities and those writing it off to the left tend to procrastinate. If your handwriting shows a circle instead of a dot then you allegedly possess a childlike quality, and using a dash is said to be typical of overly critical individuals. Only organized and emphatic people place the dot firmly above the i when writing by hand.
4. Crossing your Ts
The length of your T-cross reveals further personality traits; long crossers are purportedly determined and enthusiastic, and short T-crossers are lazier.
5. Pen pressure
If you apply a heavy pressure when using a pen or pencil then you are committed. Really heavy pressure is said to reveal uptight qualities. Light pressure denotes sensitivity and empathy.
6. Signature
What does your signature say about you? Illegible signatures speak of someone that is private and closed. A readable signature shows self-confidence.
