What are the signs of a kind / gentle person?

[Teadrinker11]

I've realised how much I am not able to read the personalities of others, including myself. Someone recently told my mom that I am a kind, very gentle person. I know personality types, but I don't know what the signs of someone being like that are. For example, if someone is arrogant or self absorbed, what the signs of those are. I know this sounds dumb but I want to read my own personality a bit better, which might enable me to be able to read others. What would you think are the signs that someone is a gentle and kind person?

A gentle and kind person won't want to pass on any negative comments to another. They will want the best for others and be glad when other people find happiness. They are aware of other people's feelings and take them into account with all that they do or say in front of other people.

I would day that they're not loud or pushy, they're not keen to get their voice heard.
They will listen rather than put forward their opinion.

My DD is very kind and gentle. She is also very sensitive. Gets very anxious if she sees someone in distress, really upset if someone is nasty to someone else. She always really cares and listens and tries to help others. She puts others needs before hers, too much really. She won’t hear a bad word about anyone and is very non judgmental. She would never bear a grudge.

They tend to be good listeners, have a social conscience and don’t brag!
