Bruce Dern
in Relationships

Open and generous, Bruce Dern enjoys a wide circle of friends and acquaintances and he thrives on sociability and fellowship. He is adventurous, playful, freedom loving, and always ready for a good time. Dern rarely allows obstacles or difficulties to keep him down, for no matter how bleak the past or present, Bruce always expects a better, brighter future. In fact, he is uncomfortable with his own or other people's problems and emotional pain. Bruce Dern often tries to "cheer up" or offer philosophical advice to those who are hurting, but he unwittingly avoids or ignores the emotions involved.

Friendship means a great deal to Dern, perhaps even more than love relationships or romance. For Bruce Dern to be happy, his mate must be his best friend and encourage Bruce's aspirations and ideals. Bruce Dern also needs a great deal of emotional freedom and mobility.

Dern depends a great deal upon other people for emotional support and he has a large "family" of friends that care about him and treat him as kin. The women in Bruce's life are particularly important to him, and his relationships with them powerfully influence his sense of security and happiness. Bruce Dern may be overly dependent and unsure of himself without a close partner.

He needs love, affection, nurturing and enjoys being pampered - all of which is fine, as long as Bruce Dern is willing to give as well as receive the attention and "babying". Bruce has a rather childish dependency on loved ones, which can make him cling to them, or be very uncomfortable with any conflict that could conceivably lead to separation. Creating a loving family is certainly a challenge for Bruce - one that can be enormously satisfying if he can achieve it, and a source of great sadness if he cannot.

His emotional needs are very important to Bruce Dern and he tends to seek approval and recognition from the people in his immediate world. Dern will derive more benefit in activities with others than by keeping to him.

He is hot-tempered and tends to get annoyed and angered easily. Very competitive, Bruce Dern is always willing to take on any challenge. Tact and diplomacy are not of his strong points and Bruce must learn to master his irritability and quarrelsomeness.

In a love relationship, Bruce Dern is more interested in the person's sense of humor and intelligence than in her physique. Bruce likes a partner who is mentally alive and keeps him guessing and Bruce Dern becomes restless and bored with someone who never asks questions, changes or surprises him. It is very important to Bruce Dern's happiness to talk, share ideas, go places together and learn new things together. Bruce Dern needs ample social stimulation, is somewhat of a flirt, and likes to have many friends of both sexes. Dern finds a possessive, jealous partner very stifling.

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