Billie Holiday
in Relationships

Serious and responsible, she tries to carry the world on her shoulders and rarely let others know that she needs help and support. Billie Holiday denies or ignores her own emotional needs and feels that others will not accept her if she appears "weak". She is especially uncomfortable with emotional dependency, and will tell herself and others (even children) not to be a "baby". Billie Holiday needs to accept that no one is self-sufficient all the time, and to be gentler with her "childish" emotional needs and wants. To others, she may appear to be rather hard-nosed and tough, with a businesslike attitude toward their personal concerns and feelings. Actually, no one is a truer friend. Her feelings and loyalties run deep, but she often does not let people know how much she cares. Billie Holiday also needs to learn to relax, enjoy herself, and play sometimes.

Her own feelings and emotions are something of an enigma to Billie, and it is often difficult for her to share with others what she is feeling.

Billie Holiday frequently withdraws from contact with the world, and needs a healing, peaceful environment in order to blossom and come out of hers.

Holiday identifies with the oppressed, disenfranchised or underdog in any situation and she wants to help them or care for them in some way.

Holiday is rambunctious and a little rowdy at times, and she enjoys sharing this kind of energy with her friends. Making noise, cheering at a football game, or even getting into a friendly fight all seem like a good time to her. In fact, Billie Holiday needs to do these things or otherwise she gets crabby.

Her emotional excitability is very strong and Holiday tends to be high-strung and impatient. Billie Holiday knows what she wants to accomplish, she forges ahead and brooks no interference. Domineering and forceful, it is not easy for Billie Holiday to back down gracefully when she is confronted.

Tremendously softhearted and sympathetic, Billie Holiday gives very selflessly and devotedly to those she loves and often allows others to become overly dependent upon her. More compassionate than passionate, Billie Holiday may become romantically involved with someone because they need love and she wants to help them, rather than out of mutual pleasure or attraction.

She is drawn to sensitive, imaginative, gentle souls - poets, musicians, dreamers - or to someone Billie feels she can have deep spiritual relationships with. Billie Holiday idealizes love and has a very beautiful, romantic vision of what love relationships can be.

Holiday is very much aware of her personal appearance, attractiveness, and charm, and she can be rather narcissistic. On the other hand, Billie Holiday is concerned with getting along with others and she has a pleasing, agreeable manner that people find quite appealing. Billie uses tact or charm to get what she wants rather than intense effort or force. Her desire for love and affection colors everything Billie Holiday does.
