Emily Post
motivation

Though Post may seem breezy, independent and freedom loving (as mentioned in the previous chapter), she is in fact not completely happy without a partner. She enjoys being on the move and exploring new territory, but wants a traveling companion! Post yearns for fulfilling, yet non-restricting relationships.

Harmony and balance are her keynotes. Emily Post instinctively understands the need to accommodate other people's interests and desires, and she is always fair and willing to meet others half way. Tactful, diplomatic, and quite socially aware, Emily does all she can to avoid conflict and discord. Her spirit is one of cooperation and compromise, and she often achieves through charm and discretion what would have been impossible to achieve with a direct, forceful approach.

Getting along with and pleasing others may be too important to Post since she can be too dependent on the approval and opinions of other to make her own decisions. Post will rarely act without seeking the counsel and feedback of other people. She prefers sharing and doing things with others rather than on her own. Being alone feels very unnatural to Emily Post, and she has a strong need for a partner and intimate one-on-one relationships.

Emily Post invests a great deal of her energy in personal love relationships and she is very idealistic and romantic about marriage. Emily Post seeks a partner who is her equal intellectually, and who is capable of a mental relationship as well as a physical and emotional one. She makes a thoughtful, considerate friend or lover, and she enjoys the traditional symbols of love - courtship, flowers, etc. Post perceives relationships like an art that requires time, attention and creative effort. Emily Post appreciates a partner who is subtle and polished, never coarse or blunt.

Fairness and equality, both in her personal relationships and in the world, are extremely important to her. If Emily Post fights about anything, it is often about something she feels is unfair and unbalanced. Balance is very important to Emily. She believes in moderation in all things and avoids fanaticism and extremism at all costs.

Emily Post also has a strong need for beautiful, harmonious surroundings and a natural sense of artistic style and grace, which is reflected in the way Post dresses and furnishes her home and workspace. Everything must be aesthetically pleasing and appropriate. Working with people as a counselor, advisor, consultant, or negotiator, or in an artistic field such as design or photography would be fulfilling to her.

World travel, foreign cultures, and studies which expand her intellectual horizons and broaden her understanding of the world are very attractive to Post.

Emily Post has a philosophical turn of mind and is concerned with seeking answers to the big questions of life or getting the overview of any situation. Abstract concepts and/or plans for the future occupy her mind much of the time.

Emily Post tends to see things from her perspective only and to be rather subjective. She also enjoys talking and expressing her views but does not always listen as well. Emily Post has a clear mind, a love of learning and new experiences, and she needs constant mental stimulation and activity.

She is an original! Emily Post radiates a sort of electrical excitement about the things she is interested in, and conveys this to others, but she also gets bored rather quickly. Emily does not mind being a bit unusual or breaking a few rules either.
