You're 50% JOMO! Let's face it- you've found a balance between FOMO and JOMO. Sometimes, you can't help but let the FOMO force you to try something new or to to go out when you really wanted to stay in. Other times, you listen to your own authentic voice and simply do your own thing. Put down the smart phone and remember that you're in control of your own life, no one else.

You are 30% JOMO! While you do relish in doing your own thing from time to time, you also have a big time fear of missing out. Since you're almost always on social media, it's hard for you to not compare your life to others. If all your friends are going to the bar, you're almost certainly going to be there too, even if all you really want is a night in with Netflix.
