Mario Barrett
in Relationships

Mario does not appear to be an intensely emotional or sentimental person, and he is often unaware of his own or other people's deeper feelings and emotional needs. Tears and tantrums bewilder him and make him very uncomfortable. Mario Barrett would rather settle differences by talking things out reasonably and rationally, but he tends to ignore or poke fun at any attempt to probe his own or others' inner depths.

Mario Barrett avoids heavy, demanding emotional relationships and is wary of making personal commitments.

He needs ample mental stimulation and feels close to people with whom he can share thoughts and intellectual interests. Conversation is very important to Barrett. The strong, silent partner is not for him.

Barrett depends a great deal upon other people for emotional support and he has a large "family" of friends who care about him and treat him as kin. The women in Mario's life are particularly important to him, and his relationships with them have a powerful impact on his sense of security and happiness. Mario Barrett may be overly dependent and unsure of himself without a close partner.

Some rather acute fears of being excluded, rejected, left out in the cold or separated from loved ones can make Mario Barrett either extremely cautious about getting close to people or clingy toward whoever gives him any warmth or security. Mario Barrett tends to withhold and clamp down on many of his feelings and craves nurturing and security, perhaps feeling that they are unacceptable or will never be satisfied. Learning to be open and trust others to nurture him is important to him. His earliest years, especially Barrett's relationships with his mother, will determine whether Mario Barrett will overcome his fears or retreat behind a mask of self-sufficiency and indifference.

Powerful and complex emotions stir Mario Barrett, and his emotional life and closest personal relationships are liable to be tumultuous until Mario does some deep soul searching. Buried feelings and memories that he does not want to deal with may surface at unexpected times. Holding in fears, secrets or "taboo" thoughts and feelings can only intensify them, and Mario Barrett needs to share them with someone who is sympathetic, trustworthy and fairly objective. Ridding himself of emotional compulsions and deeply embedded patterns that do not serve him can be tremendously liberating if Mario Barrett is willing to do the necessary inner house cleaning.

Mario Barrett thinks big and is insatiably curious. He is interested in many fields, is talkative and a pleasant conversationalist. Kind, easy-going and optimistic, Barrett has good comprehension and excellent command of language.

His emotional life tends to be a bit strange and he is likely to fantasize a lot and to weave a web of illusions. Easily swayed by the needs of others, Mario Barrett must learn not to take on others problems and also guard against others deceiving him.

Mario Barrett possesses the gifts of tact, courtesy and consideration, and has a strong desire to please and understand his love partner. Because he values harmony so highly, Mario Barrett will compromise a great deal to avoid any discord or conflict in his relationships.

Mario Barrett often hides his affection, or finds his feelings difficult to express or get across to the person he loves. Being openly affectionate and trusting often does not seem safe to Mario. He may feel his love will not be appreciated or reciprocated. Mario Barrett may get involved in secret love relationships or fall in love with a person who is quite unavailable to him. Love and sacrifice often seem to go hand in hand for Mario Barrett - i.e. having to give something up to be with the one he loves, or having to relinquish a person or an aspect of an important love relationship.

His tastes and natural inclinations border on the extravagant and luxurious. Whether or not Mario Barrett possesses the resources to satisfy these desires or the ambition to provide these things for himself, he wants a life of plenty, ease and comfort. Mario may cause trouble in his love relationships by focusing too much attention on money or "lifestyle" rather than on the person he is with. Mario Barrett may also attract gold diggers or parasites who will take advantage of his hospitality as long as he allows them to. Indiscretion in matters of both heart and pocketbook can be problems as well.

He needs a lot of emotional and romantic stimulation, and may not be very interested in having just one mate or love partner. Variety, excitement, spontaneity, and freedom are quite important to Mario, and "settling down" is not that appealing. Mario Barrett tends to surround himself with unusual, creative, unconventional people that keep his life lively. Music or dancing or both play an important part in Barrett's life.

Mario Barrett tends to suppress his feelings and he approaches other people with great reserve. He may feel lonesome, but unable to bridge the gap between him and others. But once Mario Barrett enters a relationship, he will be faithful and steady in his feelings for his partner.
