Gummo Marx
in Relationships

Gummo Marx has frequent emotional outbursts due to his fiery temper and emotional impulsiveness. Marx expresses himself very directly and honestly and no one has to guess what his true feelings are. However, Gummo Marx dislikes showing any personal weakness or his need for support, comfort and nurturing. He is often impatient with himself and others. Gummo abhors emotional dependency and dislikes "complainers".

Gummo Marx inspires others to take positive action in their lives through his own enthusiasm and eagerness to meet life's challenges, and he is attracted to people who are adventurous, courageous and independent. Gummo is rather bossy but does not like to be with people that he can boss around too much. He enjoys a good fight sometimes. Relationships that are built on mutual respect and emotional freedom are ideal for Marx.

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

Gummo Marx often makes decisions solely for emotional or personal reasons, because something "feels right" or because he has always done it a certain way and he is uncomfortable changing it. Even when Marx thinks he is being rational, his prejudices, intuitions, and feelings influence his thoughts a great deal. Gummo is comfortable talking about feelings and personal subjects, and sharing confidences, which enables others to express their own inner feelings with him as well. Gummo Marx has good psychological insight into others.

Gummo Marx 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. Gummo Marx actually prefers a rather rambunctious, feisty, competitive atmosphere to a peaceful one.

Gummo Marx feels that little, daily acts of caring and thoughtfulness are essential to the happiness and success of relationships and he knows how to make others feel accepted, loved and cherished. He enjoys good relationships with women.

Gummo Marx tends to have strange quirks, idiosyncrasies, or domestic habits, and he may feel that he does not fit in with "normal" people. These could be endearing eccentricities, or truly outlandish tastes and behavior. Establishing a steady routine and rhythm in his life and relationships would be very beneficial but may not be easily achieved. Ideally Gummo Marx can create a unique lifestyle that affords him a lot of personal space, freedom, and flexibility to follow his own somewhat erratic rhythms - while at the same time providing some order and consistency. There is a current of emotional discontent or restlessness within Gummo also, which may be reflected in unstable personal relationships of the on again/off again variety. Gummo Marx craves change and excitement whether he realizes it consciously or not.

Gummo has very deep feelings and profound attachments to people he cares about. His relationships to his mother, sisters, daughters, and other females in his life are apt to be incredibly close and intense. Gummo Marx may be easily manipulated too, when it comes to one of these important relationships, because he is so emotionally invested in it.

In love relationships, Gummo Marx seeks companionship and friendship with someone who is fun loving, playful and open to adventure and new experiences. He enjoys traveling together, meeting new people and making new friends. Honeymooning in a distant location appeals to Gummo, and he is also attracted to foreigners or people with diametrically different backgrounds than his own. Gummo Marx supports his partner in taking risks and making positive changes, rather than preserving the status quo. He also very much wants a partner who will encourage his own aspirations and dreams. It is very important to Gummo that he have a spiritual or intellectual rapport with his love partner, perhaps more important than the emotional/physical aspect. Gummo Marx is not especially sentimental and his love partner may feel that he is too casual and not serious or romantic enough.

Marx is a very sociable, congenial person and he wilts very quickly without relationships with good friends and people to share good times with. Gummo Marx thoroughly enjoys working with others on group projects or community activities. He is quite happy when he is a part of a club, support group, or team of some sort.

Gummo Marx has a great rapport with the opposite sex, and love relationships, romance, and passion are absolutely vital to his well-being. It is rare for Gummo to go very long without an intimate companion. The physical component of relationships is also very important to Marx. Artistic creations and projects are another way for Gummo Marx to channel his passion.

Gummo Marx tends to be attracted to people who are not quite what they seem. Gullible, romantic and rather easily seduced, Gummo frequently falls in love with an image in his own mind, which he then projects onto the object of his affections, only to discover later that this person never really had the lovely qualities he endowed her with. Gummo Marx also confuses love relationships with pity, sacrifice, or misplaced notions of "selfishness", thereby setting himself up to be taken advantage of. He is capable of great devotion to a spiritual cause, for he is actually seeking some sort of transcendent or mystical experience through love.

Intimate relationships are the arena in which Gummo Marx explores the depths he is capable of. He could fall intensely and fanatically in love and be obsessive, extraordinarily jealous or deeply involved with his partners. Marx will experience both heaven and hell in his closest relationships. There is undoubtedly a peculiarly karmic, fated quality to these relationships, which - though difficult - will teach Gummo Marx things about himself and about love that he could not learn in any other way. Marx will often enter relationships which he realizes - rationally - will be very difficult, yet he cannot resist them, nonetheless. Gummo Marx needs not to avoid berating himself for these "bad" choices; instead, he needs to learn what he can from them.
