How to become estranged with someone without exhausting them. Personal colours

Red personalities – extroverts driven by their goals, and they get more tired from resting than from working.

What wears them out most is other people’s inactivity and their inability to do things quickly, well and on time. Red personalities probably think more often than any other color, why are there so many losers around? Do not offer your help to a Red person when something gets stuck or does not go according to plan. They can handle it perfectly well on their own, so do not waste their time.

Or just be lazy every time the Red person sees you. Tell them all about the show you finished binge-watching last week. Make sure to emphasize that only fools work and that money matters only to the unenlightened. The Red person will definitely do their best to forget your name.


Cherry personalities – calm, deep and very good at remembering.

Cherry personalities rarely raise their voice, do not argue over small things and generally spend a long time trying to understand other people. But they have very clear values and very little patience for people who keep saying one thing and doing something completely different.

Do not make promises if you do not intend to keep them. Do not ask them to understand your situation for the fifth time in a row. Do not say friendship means so much to you and then disappear for three weeks, only to show up again when you need something.

If you want to politely part ways with a Cherry person, be superficial, inconsistent and then try to explain that “it’s really no big deal.” The Cherry person will not say a word. They will simply decide, very calmly, that they no longer want you in their life.


Yellow personalities – extroverts who love to socialize, but get tired when they have to dig too deeply into the smallest details.

What exhausts them most are manipulators, dishonest people and those who are forever unhappy. If someone were to ask you what the point of living is if life is supposedly so hard and terrible, it would definitely be a Yellow person. Do not blame a Yellow person for not arriving on time. They just view time a little too optimistically. It is not the Yellow person’s fault that so many people were heading to the same place and created traffic. If it had been nighttime, they absolutely would have made it.

Or yawn while the Yellow person is sharing their feelings with you. Compliment them by saying they look amazing today, even though you can clearly see they have gained weight and have not been to the salon in a while. And do your best to gossip about the Yellow person as often as possible, especially within earshot. Trust me, it will take a long time before the Yellow person remembers that you even exist.


Orange personalities – extroverts who communicate according to their mood, either a lot or not at all, and they get tired when life goes too long without sending them new challenges or changes.

Orange personalities know how to enjoy every successful moment, and what wears them out most are chronic complainers who manage to spot a dark cloud even on the brightest day. Do not tell an Orange person that you did not get something done or could not find the time to start the work you had planned. They truly will not understand that. Orange personalities do not like excuses on principle. It is better to say you did not complete the task because the order of your priorities changed. That will sound like a valid reason.

If you want to politely end a friendship, give the Orange person advice about how they should handle their personal life and how they could improve professionally.


Green personalities – introverts, excellent listeners and very good friends, but they avoid conflict in every possible way because it drains them deeply.

Green personalities like to focus on solving one problem at a time, so they become very tired if they have to solve even two at once. And they will never understand you if you want to discuss five possible problems all at the same time.

Argue endlessly and keep proving that you are right, interrupt the Green person in the middle of a sentence, brag about your amazing achievements that are pure fantasy, and very quickly the Green person will quietly move as far away from you as possible.


Moss personalities – gentle, kind and willing to excuse everyone for far too long.

Moss personalities spend a long time trying to understand why someone is behaving badly. They will find ten excuses for you if you are tired, angry or unhappy. But there is one thing Moss personalities never forgive – when someone takes advantage of their kindness for too long.

Ask for help, complain, forget to say thank you, call only when you need something and never ask how they are doing. The Moss person will keep helping you for a long time, smiling and saying everything is fine. But one day, they simply will not answer anymore.

If you want to politely end a relationship with a Moss person, let them realize that they matter to you only when it is convenient for you. Moss personalities suffer for a long time, but once they are exhausted, they leave very quietly and do not come back.


Blue personalities – introverts, task-oriented and drained by the absence of structure.

They love going deep into details and cannot tolerate superficial people. What exhausts them most is empty chatter, when people keep expressing opinions on certain topics without having any real knowledge of them.

Drift around aimlessly, make noise, ask the Blue person for help ten times an hour, constantly change your plans and your opinions, and you will absolutely wear them out, even though Blue personalities are some of the most patient people of all.


Azure personalities – quiet, sensitive and very quickly exhausted by noise.

Azure personalities usually do not argue and do not say when something hurts them. They simply remember everything. Every harsh word, every time you did not truly listen, every joke that seemed completely harmless to you.

Interrupt them, do not listen until the end, constantly talk only about yourself and say that they take everything too seriously. The Azure person will nod, smile and never tell you anything important again.

If you want to politely part ways with an Azure person, simply behave as if their feelings are unnecessary and unimportant. The Azure person will never create drama. They will quietly step away and disappear as if they had never been there at all.


Violet personalities – introverts with many ideas, but deeply attached to their fantasies and inner visions of how everything should unfold.

They become deeply exhausted when they cannot find harmony, both in communication and inside themselves. Almost anything can make them sad, from the illness of a distant relative they barely know to a volcanic eruption in a country whose name they have only ever heard on the news.

Keep rushing the Violet person, demand that they explain every step they take and always try to seem smarter than they are. Tell them they are old-fashioned, behind the times and will never achieve anything in life without the newest phone model. And do not forget to criticize the people they love. That will guarantee you one more enemy.


Pink personalities – strong, demanding and deeply sensitive to how they are treated.

Pink personalities may seem confident and even a little strict, but in reality they notice very quickly when they are not appreciated, undervalued or made to feel small.

Constantly criticize their choices, tell them they want too much, expect too much and react too emotionally. Make sure to compare them to someone who supposedly “does everything better.” And under no circumstances should you praise them, even when they are clearly trying very hard.

If you want the Pink person to disappear from your life on their own, behave as if they constantly have to prove they are good enough. Pink personalities will keep trying for a long time, and then one day they will realize they deserve more.

It is easy not to annoy or exhaust the people around you once you learn how to recognize personality colors. And if it happens that you would rather politely get rid of someone, now you know how.
