Claude Autant-Lara becomes very cross if he lacks vigorous physical activity. Autant-Lara feels his best if he frequently "does battle" on the tennis or racquetball court (or engages in another form of competitive sport).

Autant-Lara gets a lot of emotional fulfillment through his involvement in groups, clubs, organizations, community activities, or a network of close friends who support and care for him.

Claude Autant-Lara takes offense rather quickly and his instincts are to fight, defend or act first, and ask questions later. He has a tendency for impatience, irritability and outbursts of temper, especially in response to minor frustrations. When he is not actively involved, he is not comfortable. Claude Autant-Lara actually prefers a rather rambunctious, feisty, competitive atmosphere to a peaceful one.

Although Autant-Lara gets hot under the collar rather easily (as mentioned above), he also has a certain degree of emotional self-control and composure, which enable Claude Autant-Lara to rein in some of his more aggressive tendencies. This side of his is described below.

Claude Autant-Lara often feels that he must do something or be something other than what he is in order to receive approval and acceptance from others. He is very sensitive to criticism and easily feels left out or neglected, and though he may appear cool or distant, Autant-Lara actually cares very much about being included. Because he is so sensitive, it may seem easier for Claude Autant-Lara to withdraw into a shell rather than risk the emotional bumps and bruises he may endure once he lets others really know him in an intimate, personal way. His reserve and caution make establishing close emotional relationships with others difficult, and Claude Autant-Lara becomes very attached to the few people he considers "real friends". Autant-Lara can gain inner security and strength through periods of solitude if he views them as times to nourish himself and develop his own interests, rather than as times of loneliness.

In addition to Claude's rather introverted, serious or self-contained side, he has a wild streak and urge for emotional freedom that breaks through erratically. Claude Autant-Lara craves both stability and excitement, and the conflict between these two impulses can make Autant-Lara rather tense and irritable. However, they can also balance each other out.

Claude's pleasure-loving nature and his emotional and material generosity discussed above are counterbalanced by a certain caution or restraint in expressing his affection, and by a fear of heartache. At times Claude Autant-Lara is likely to be the jovial, friendly, rather extravagant person mentioned previously, but at other times he is far more contained as described here.
