Moby
approach to life and appearances

The following is a description of Moby's basic stance toward life, the way others see him, the way Moby comes across, the face he shows to the world. In the page about motivation you will read about the inner Moby - his real motivation, which describes the kind of person he is at heart and where his 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 Moby" may not shine through and others may be in for so a few surprises once they get to know Moby a little better. This page describes the disguise Moby wears, his role in life, while the page about motivation talks about the real person beneath the disguise.

He is very strong-willed and proud, but intensely private and not easy to know well. Behind Moby's quiet exterior lies a great deal of emotional depth, sensitivity, complexity, and also fierce determination. When Moby wants something he goes after it rather quietly but insistently and wholeheartedly - and what Moby wants, Moby usually gets.

He is not a person who lives haphazardly or superficially. Moby wants to live passionately and intensely and is not averse to challenge, danger, or to facing the darker side of life - human pain and struggle. Moby functions well in crisis situations and he often seeks them out, for he enjoys the feeling of living at full capacity.

He is very intuitive about other people and especially about their unspoken feelings and hidden motives. Moby usually has strong, immediate gut reactions, either positive or negative, which prove to be correct. Moby approaches life very instinctively and is not always fully conscious of why he feels or acts the way he does. Moby also has a very strong affinity with animals - an acute sensitivity and a nonverbal rapport with them.

In new relationships he is rather cautious, sometimes even suspicious, until he gets to know and trust someone - and trust does not come easily to Moby. When Moby commits himself emotionally to someone, be it friend or lover, he is intensely loyal and devoted to them and he also expects the same kind of unwavering, undying loyalty in return. If he is ever betrayed by someone he cares deeply for, Moby is capable of hating and retaliating with as much fervor as he once loved. Nothing is done halfway. In fact, he is intensely involved and often jealously attached to whatever he cares about, be it person, idea, or cause. There is definitely a streak of emotional fanaticism in him.

Because of his natural reserve, others may see Moby as something of an enigma. He is quite self-protective and often defensive. Moby also has a very magnetic quality, especially to members of the opposite sex.

Moby appears sympathetic and approachable. Because he uses his feelings and intuition to assess people, others sense that Moby understands their feelings or their personal situations. At the same time Moby really wants people to know how he feels, and their care and support are very important to him.

Moby can get by in life almost on his personality alone. There is a radiant, warm, attractive quality about Moby that others cannot help responding to favorably. Usually he appears confident and clear about who he is, and it is very difficult not to notice him or feel his influence when Moby is around.
