CHRIS COLFER'S HANDWRITING AND SIGNATURE ANALYSIS

HANDWRITING

'Glee' Actor. Cutest gay celeb ever! ^_^

The first thing that clicks my mind after looking at Chris Colfer's handwriting is that he is very childish and immature. The spaces between his words indicates that he has a hard time trusting people or that he doesn't trust people easily therefore he has a few close friends. The little or no space between the letters and size of his handwriting shows that he is shy and reserved.

'I' symbolises his ever changing self-image. He is very conscientious and imaginative. He doesn't let his emotions get the best of him i.e. he keeps his emotions in check and conceals them(he sure is emotional though). Clear 'A' in 'am' and 'Was' shows he is an honest guy. 
'T' bar in 'Excited' shows that he is a forward looking person. 
Although, he is quite confident, he has a very low self-esteem or low self-image i.e. he often tries finding flaws in himself. He is diplomatic and stubborn. He is a sharp minded chap.
He is not open to people's ideas or opinions. Although, he is an ambivert, he sometimes revert to his private world when he conceals his feelings and also returns to introversion. 

He, mostly, doesn't care what people think about him but sometimes, he really does care about what folks thinks about him He seems to be very impatient and tactful. This guy is quite romantic and intuitive

Chris Colfer is very protective about himself and doesn't like revealing anything about his family and his personal life and keeps people at bay. He is a performer or an artist (sure thing).
