Lorelei Mahoney approach to life and appearances
The following is a description of Lorelei's basic stance toward life, the way others see her, the way Lorelei Mahoney comes across, the face she shows to the world. In the page about motivation you will read about the inner Lorelei Mahoney - her real motivation, which describes the kind of person she is at heart and where her true priorities lie. Study this page and the next one and compare them - there may be significant differences between the two, in which case "the inner Lorelei Mahoney" may not shine through and others may be in for so a few surprises once they get to know Lorelei a little better. This page describes the disguise Mahoney wears, her role in life, while the page about motivation talks about the real person beneath the disguise.
She is a natural diplomat, reasonable, tolerant, fair, always willing to listen to varying viewpoints, and prepared to see the other side of an issue. Even if she strongly disagrees with someone, Lorelei Mahoney will try to find points of similarity and agreement rather than emphasizing the differences. She often avoids taking an extreme or one-sided stance on anything. Lorelei has a strong desire for harmonious and pleasant relationships, and revels in a spirit of cooperation, compromise, friendship, and fairness. Lorelei Mahoney very much wants to be liked and because of her need for approval and acceptance, Mahoney is easily influenced by others' opinions, especially those expressed by the young. She so much wants to please that often Lorelei Mahoney will suppress her own intense or unpleasant feelings in order to avoid offending others. Sometimes Mahoney's politeness is interpreted as being phony or wishy-washy.
Her need to create harmony extends to her physical environment and personal appearance as well. Lorelei Mahoney appreciates beauty and has a natural sense of balance, symmetry, and proportion. She does everything in good taste, with a sense of style and art. From her home furnishings to her choice of clothing, everything must be aesthetically appealing, not simply functional or utilitarian.
She also feels that relationships are a form of art - one that Mahoney is especially interested in and usually quite skilled at, for Lorelei possesses tact and acute awareness of other people. Marriage is very significant to her and finding the right person to share her life with is extremely important. Being part of a close relationship seems natural to Lorelei Mahoney - she is not an independent loner. Having a partner increases her self-confidence. Lorelei Mahoney does have a tendency, however, to become overly dependent on her partner and perhaps not to develop a clearly defined identity outside of the relationship. Finding the balance between being herself and blending and uniting with another is a challenge for Lorelei.
Others see Lorelei Mahoney as an agreeable, smooth, harmonious, and "nice" person. Though there may be much more to her, this is the sort of face Mahoney shows to the world. She possesses personal charm and an understated, non-combative manner. Her motto could be "one catches more flies with honey than with vinegar" for Lorelei Mahoney usually adopts a friendly, cooperative approach rather than a strong, forceful, I'm-going-to-conquer-the-world attitude.
The effect of her childhood experiences, and the beliefs and attitudes Lorelei learned while young, are clearly apparent in her demeanor. All is well on the surface, but when trouble arises, Lorelei Mahoney seems childish and needy. When she is in calmer waters, she appears to have a vulnerable, trusting nature that brings out the mothering instinct in others.
