If you answered mostly A’s, you’re Belle! 

So it looks like you have a bit of Stockholm syndrome, possibly because you’re in an emotionally abusive relationship.  You say he treats you like a princess?  But what you mean is, he’s locked you in his castle.  It’s a little disturbing that he’s isolating you from friends and family, and discouraging you from pursuing your own interests?  Try to focus on yourself first before putting all your energy into changing your boyfriend’s beastly ways!

If you answered mostly B’s, you’re Mulan!
It seems like most of your problems stem from trying to live up to your parents’ expectations of you, which come into direct conflict with your need to express your unique self.  Your traditional family scoffs at your refusal to submit to gender roles, which is causing you to have an identity crisis.  Ask yourself, “What would make me happy?” and follow that path to self-discovery!

If you answered mostly C’s, you’re Ariel! 
Like many teenagers, you’re unhappy at home, and sometimes feel like a “fish out of water” among your peer group.  You long to get off on your own and explore, and you’ve projected this desire onto a boy you like.  Your behavior is borderline obsessive towards this boy, sneaking off to spy on him and collecting trophies that remind you of him.  Why not take all of that energy and drive and put it towards furthering your own self-actualization?  Maybe look into some colleges, take up a new hobby, join a show choir!  Use your voice to express yourself instead of to chase after a man!
If you answered mostly D’s, you’re Snow White! 
Your happy-go-lucky exterior belies a dark past that you may not have fully dealt with.  The absence of caring relationships in your past makes you eager to please, desperate for new friends, but you haven’t taken time to set up boundaries.  People may take advantage of you, exploiting your kindness, tricking you into doing things for them, crossing your physical boundaries!  Don’t bite the apple!  Put your foot down and learn to say “No!” once in a while.

    This is so fricking funny…and true. Disney characters in general are not the best role models.
