Ok so it’s not as if there’s a spot on e-Harmony or MySpace to list if you are Type O or AB negative right? But across the world in Japan your blood type can be so much more than just a letter or two; it’s a reflection of character traits and personality differences that may or may not make for a good relationship match. Seem like a foreign concept – but then again when’s the last time you flipped to the horoscope section in your favorite newspaper or magazine?
My older sister Kat spent a year teaching English to junior high kids in Japan so I asked her if she had ever heard of the blood type interest. “Of course! My students used to always want to know my blood type and then giggle about it.” And if you still don’t believe me check out these cell phone charms you can buy online.

So just in case you want to start using these methods when checking our potential dates or friendships here are the characteristics of each type:
Japanese Blood Type Personality Chart (from Wikipedia)
Type A: Best Traits: Creative, sensible; Worst Traits:Fastidious, overearnest.
Type B: Best Traits: Wild, a doer, cheerful; Worst Traits:Selfish, irresponsible.
Type AB: Best Traits: Cool, controlled, rational; Worst Traits:Critical, indecisive.
Type O: Best Traits:Agreeable, sociable, an optimist; Worst Traits:Vain, careless.
Don’t know your type? That’s just one more reason to come up to Blood Centers of the Pacific and donate!
