Optical illusions exist to trick our mind into believing that we see something that doesn’t really exist or into lacking to see the obvious.
Either way, they are fun and trigger discussions. They also make us think deeply about their meaning and about what they truly represent.
The following optical illusion can help you determine what kind of lover you are based on what figure you notice first.
Being aware of this fact is sometimes crucial in building a relationship with someone.
Every bonding with the person we love is mostly grounded on communication and mutual understanding. The feelings involved are of course a crucial part of the decision to be with someone or not.
The following test will also reveal your personal method of showing your love.
This knowledge can deepen the romantic involvement with your other half and help you understand and appreciate your partner even more.
Now take a look at the image and note the first thing you notice.
These are the explanations based on your answer:
The Face:
If the face is the first thing you notice, it shows that you are determined and have your goals straight in life. You always have a plan about your next move that you are ready to fulfill with unshakable confidence. You have a reputation that you are often correct and you are born to be a leader.
As a lover, you believe that finding the time to spend together with the person you love is crucial for a successful relationship. Having someone find the time for you besides their hectic schedule is a valuable love expression. But you are wiling to do the same and make your loved one a priority.
The Trees:
You are likely someone who experienced emotional heartbreak in the past and when there comes the time for a new love, you carry the baggage from your previous love experience. You are a sensitive individual and what doesn’t leave a mark on someone else can entirely take up your mind for a long time. However, besides the scars, you don’t lose hope.
As a lover, you believe that a relationship works best if you open up. When you share your pain and deepest fears with the person you are with, you experience something deep and meaningful. To you, even a shred of emotional availability is immensely appreciated.
The Wolf:
You are likely defined as someone passionate and someone who has no lack of confidence when it comes to initiating your love desires. You are also an initiator of a great party and now how to make people feel comfortable around you. Always at the center of attention with your wit.
Your love language is physical touch. You are passionate and the physical acts of intimate love-making mean much more than words to you. The reason for this is because you have learned much more from actions than you ever did from words. You show your love to your partner through sweet and tiny physical gestures. Playing rough occasionally is your thing, but it is the gentle cuddling and nuzzling that let your soft side shine.
The Moon:
You are a dreamer who loves dancing and writing, as well as appreciating other people’s expression of these forms of art. You find inspiration in the world’s creative and spiritual side.
You express your love through art. As a lover, all of your creative work has something from your loved one tied into it. If you write a poem, you consider it an act of dedication, while a painting incorporates elements of the way your partner looks like, such as the color of their hair or eyes. Before you express your love, you need to be sure it’s the right thing.
The House:
What you seek in a relationship is the security you feel at home. You are someone who finds happiness in being mostly at home with the one you love. A perfect scene for you is sitting in front of a fire, wrapped in a blanket and feeling the coziness of your place.
You show your love by providing for the person you are with. When they are hungry, you are happy to go to the kitchen and prepare a delicious meal for them. This small act is your secret and personal method of telling the person exactly how much you adore them and how much they mean to you.
My Neighbor Totally Ruined My Windows with Paint after I Refused to Pay $2,000 for Her Dog’s Treatment
When Julia refuses to pay $2000 for a minor injury to her neighbor’s dog, it sparks an escalating feud. As tensions rise, Julia must navigate the chaos while dealing with family struggles. But after her neighbor splatters paint over Julia’s windows, she snaps and plots some dastardly revenge.
Let me tell you about the time I almost lost my mind living in what was supposed to be a peaceful suburban neighborhood.
My name is Julia, and for over a decade, I lived in this cozy little house with my husband Roger, and our ten-year-old son, Dean.

Life was pretty good, if you ignored the constant worry about Roger’s health. But everything changed when Linda moved in next door.
Linda. Just thinking about her makes my blood boil. She moved in with her golden retriever, Max, and from day one, we never saw eye to eye.
It wasn’t anything major at first, just little things like her loud music or the way she’d let Max wander wherever he pleased. But one sunny afternoon, things took a turn for the worse.

I was in my backyard, pruning my roses, when Max came trotting over, wagging his tail like he owned the place. Sweet dog, really, but curious. He sniffed around and before I knew it, he let out a yelp.
Poor thing had gotten a tiny thorn in his paw. I knelt, soothed him, and gently removed the thorn. Max licked my hand, and I gave him a pat on the head.
I walked him back to Linda’s, expecting maybe a thank you. Instead, she stood there with her arms crossed and a scowl on her face.

“Why is my dog limping? What did you do?” she snapped.
“He just stepped on a little thorn,” I replied, trying to keep my cool. “I took it out, and he’s fine.”
She huffed, and I thought that was the end of it. Boy, was I wrong!
I stormed over to Julia’s house, my blood boiling. I pounded on her door, holding up the incriminating evidence.
The next morning, I found a note stuck to my door. It read, “You owe me $2000 for Max’s treatment.”
I stared at it, dumbfounded. Two thousand dollars? For what? The dog had a minor scratch, nothing more. I decided to go over and clear things up.

“Linda, what’s this about?” I asked, holding up the note.
“That’s for Max’s vet bill,” she said, her tone icy. “He was in pain all night because of that thorn.”
“I’m sorry, but that’s ridiculous,” I replied. “I’ll give you a hundred dollars as a goodwill gesture, but two thousand is out of the question.”
Linda’s eyes narrowed. “Either you pay up, or you’ll regret it.”
From that day on, Linda made my life a living hell.

She’d knock over my garbage cans, honk and flip me off whenever she drove by. The worst was when she tried to get Dean arrested. My sweet, innocent Dean, who was just riding a mini bike like all the other neighborhood kids.
One afternoon, I was sitting on the porch, sipping some tea, when I heard the familiar sound of Linda’s car horn blaring. I looked up to see her glaring at Dean, who was playing in the driveway.
“Get that brat off that bike before I call the cops!” she screamed.

“Linda, they’re just kids!” I shouted back, feeling my patience wear thin.
“Your kid’s a menace,” she retorted, “and if you don’t do something about it, I will.”
I wanted to scream, to cry, to do something, but I couldn’t. Roger was in the hospital again, and I was already stretched thin, trying to keep everything together. I took a deep breath and turned to Dean.
“Come inside, honey,” I said gently. “We’ll play something else.”
“But Mom, I didn’t do anything wrong,” Dean protested, tears welling up in his eyes.

“I know, sweetie. It’s just… complicated.”
I tried to ignore Linda’s antics, focusing on Roger and Dean. But it was like living next to a ticking time bomb. Every day, I dreaded what she’d do next. And then she finally pushed me over the edge.
It was a Sunday afternoon when I got the call. Roger’s condition had taken a turn for the worse, and I needed to get to the hospital immediately.
I packed up our things, dropped Dean at my mom’s place, and rushed to the hospital.

For two agonizing days, I stayed by Roger’s side, barely eating or sleeping, my mind a whirlwind of fear and exhaustion.
When I finally came home, I was hoping for a brief respite, a moment to gather my strength.
Instead, I walked up my driveway to find my house transformed into a graffiti artist’s nightmare. Red and yellow paint splattered across my windows, running down in messy streaks.
It looked like someone had tried to turn my home into a circus tent. And there, right on the doorstep, was a note from Linda: “Just to make your days brighter!”

I stood there, trembling with rage, the exhaustion of the past two days evaporating in the heat of my anger. This was it. This was the breaking point.
“Dean, go inside,” I said through gritted teeth.
“But Mom, what happened?” he asked, his eyes wide with confusion and fear.
“Just go inside, honey,” I repeated, softer this time, trying to keep my voice steady.
Dean nodded and hurried inside, leaving me alone with my fury.

I crumpled Linda’s note in my hand, my mind racing. Enough was enough. If Linda wanted a war, she was going to get one.
Before she could answer, a wail came from inside the house. I glanced past Julia and saw her son, Dean, sitting on the floor, tears streaming down his face.
That afternoon, I drove to the hardware store. I wandered the aisles, my anger giving way to a cold, calculating focus. I spotted the Japanese Beetle traps, and a plan began to form.
I bought several packs of the traps and the scent lures that attract the beetles. When I got home, I placed the scent packs in the freezer. The cold would make the wax easier to handle. My heart pounded with a mix of nerves and anticipation. This had to work.

At three a.m., I crept into Linda’s yard, the neighborhood silent under the cover of darkness.
I felt like a character in one of those spy movies Roger loved so much. Every rustle of leaves, every distant sound made my heart leap. But I was determined. I buried the scent packs deep under the mulch in Linda’s meticulously maintained flower beds.
By the time I finished, the first light of dawn was starting to break.

I slipped back into my house, my pulse finally starting to slow. I climbed into bed, exhausted but feeling a grim satisfaction. Now, it was a waiting game.
The next afternoon, I peeked out my window and saw them—swarms of Japanese beetles, glinting in the sunlight as they descended on Linda’s garden. It was working.
Over the next few days, her beautiful flower beds were decimated, the once vibrant blooms reduced to tattered remnants.

Linda’s Perspective: Beetles, Blame, and a Change of Heart
Let me set the record straight. My name is Linda, and I moved into this neighborhood hoping for some peace and quiet.
That dream was shattered when my golden retriever, Max, wandered into Julia’s yard and got a thorn in his paw. Instead of just returning him, she acted like she was doing me a favor by pulling it out.
The next day, I asked Julia to cover Max’s vet bill.

I mean, he was limping and in pain all night. But she had the nerve to offer me only $100 instead of the $2000 it cost. We argued, and I told her she’d regret not paying up. I didn’t expect things to get so out of hand.
Sure, I knocked over her garbage cans a few times and honked when I drove by—just to show her I wasn’t backing down. But Julia made me out to be the villain.
It wasn’t until my garden was destroyed by beetles that I realized things had gone too far.

I was frantic, running around my yard like a mad woman. On the third day, I was pulling out dead flowers when I spotted something odd buried in the mulch. It was a piece of plastic packaging, and my heart sank as I realized what it was—part of a Japanese Beetle trap.
Someone had done this on purpose. And I had a pretty good idea who it was.
I stormed over to Julia’s house, my blood boiling. I pounded on her door, holding up the incriminating evidence.

“Julia! Open up!” I shouted, my voice shaking with rage.
She opened the door, looking as calm as ever. “Linda, what’s going on?”
“What did you do to my garden?” I thrust the piece of plastic at her. “I found this in my flower bed. You did this, didn’t you?”
Julia’s face remained neutral, but there was a flicker of something in her eyes—guilt, maybe. “I don’t know what you’re talking about, Linda.”
“Don’t lie to me!” I screamed. “You ruined my garden! Why would you do this?”

Before she could answer, a wail came from inside the house. I glanced past Julia and saw her son, Dean, sitting on the floor, tears streaming down his face.
“Mom, is Dad going to die?” Dean sobbed, his little voice breaking.
Julia turned away from me, her face softening as she went to her son. “No, honey, he’s going to be okay. The doctors are doing everything they can.”
I stood there, frozen, watching this scene unfold. Suddenly, my anger seemed so petty.

Julia wasn’t just my annoying neighbor—she was a woman dealing with a sick husband and a scared child.
“Julia, I…” I started, but my words faltered. What could I say? I had been so consumed by my anger, that I hadn’t stopped to consider what she might be going through.
Julia looked back at me, exhaustion etched into her features. “I’m sorry about your garden, Linda. But I didn’t do it. I have enough to deal with without worrying about your flowers.”

The fight drained out of me. “I’m sorry, too,” I said quietly. “I didn’t know things were this bad for you.”
She nodded, not saying anything. I backed away, feeling like an idiot. How had I let things get so out of hand?
After that, I kept to myself. I stopped the petty harassment, realizing that Julia had enough on her plate. My garden slowly recovered, and while Julia and I never became friends, we managed to coexist peacefully.

Years later, I still think about that time. Sometimes, you need to look beyond your own troubles to see what others are going through. Julia and I have remained distant neighbors, but there’s a quiet understanding between us—a mutual respect born out of adversity.
