James Cagney
in Relationships

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

James Cagney 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. James 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 Cagney.

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

Cagney 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 James' life are particularly important to him, and his relationships with them powerfully influence his sense of security and happiness. James Cagney may be overly dependent and unsure of himself without a close partner.

He is easygoing, agreeable and tolerant, willing to overlook others' mistakes, forget the past, and begin anew on a positive note. He enjoys making others comfortable and happy, and he sometimes overdoes his generosity. James Cagney often feels that "everything will turn out all right no matter what I do", thereby becoming lazy and lackadaisical.

There is another side to James Cagney as well, a rather introverted, self-contained, even pessimistic side which tempers his good cheer and generosity, as discussed below.

James Cagney 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, Cagney actually cares very much about being included. Because he is so sensitive, it may seem easier for James Cagney 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 James Cagney becomes very attached to the few people he considers "real friends". Cagney 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.

He is a dreamer who is attracted to the inner, mystical side of life, and may have trouble distinguishing the real from the imagined or illusory. James does not enjoy confrontation and becomes very evasive when problems in his personal life or relationships arise, and escapes into his imagination in order to avoid dealing with them directly. He is also rather gullible and naive about people, especially if his sympathy has been aroused. James Cagney is very sensitive to music and can use it to achieve emotional balance and harmony.

Emotionally excitable, Cagney tends to act impulsively and make rash decisions without thinking of the consequences. Others may see James as an eccentric, somewhat selfish and unpredictable. James Cagney seems to attract sudden upsetting experiences.

He is very compassionate and loves to share his feelings with others. James Cagney is always in search for new relationships and enjoy working together with others in meetings, clubs or associations.

Sensitive and sentimental, James Cagney is deeply attached to his family, old friends, familiar places and the past. He is romantic and tender in love relationships, and it is of utmost importance to Cagney to remember birthdays, anniversaries, family rituals and other personally significant days. James Cagney seeks caring, emotional support, and security in his love relationships. James likes to be needed, as well as to cherish and protect his loved ones, of whom he is somewhat possessive.

Promoting beauty, the arts, or entertainment can make James Cagney very happy. James wants to contribute something positive and loving to the world at large and he wants to be recognized for his beauty, artistic gifts, or loving generosity. James Cagney may "marry" his work - that is, being more involved in his career than in his private life. Cagney is a natural host or diplomat.

While he may seek loving relationships and an "everlasting" love, this is not easy for James Cagney to find - or more precisely, to sustain. When James becomes romantically involved with someone, either he or the other person will create rifts once a certain level of comfort and predictability has been achieved. Even if there is no outward break in the relationship, a certain emotional aloofness or dissatisfaction is apt to develop. This is because James Cagney really wants both closeness and absolute freedom - a combination that is difficult to attain. However, if he does not at least attempt to honestly fulfill both of these urges, events seemingly out of the blue will wreak havoc in James' closest relationships.

Cagney's constitution tends to be on the weak side and he may tire easily. In love relationships he could be somewhat reserved and have a tendency toward platonic relationships. On the other hand, James Cagney could also have questionable romances that leave James disappointed.
