Paul Stookey in Relationships
Open and generous, Paul Stookey enjoys a wide circle of friends and acquaintances and he thrives on sociability and fellowship. He is adventurous, playful, freedom loving, and always ready for a good time. Stookey rarely allows obstacles or difficulties to keep him down, for no matter how bleak the past or present, Paul always expects a better, brighter future. In fact, he is uncomfortable with his own or other people's problems and emotional pain. Paul Stookey often tries to "cheer up" or offer philosophical advice to those who are hurting, but he unwittingly avoids or ignores the emotions involved.
Friendship means a great deal to Stookey, perhaps even more than love relationships or romance. For Paul Stookey to be happy, his mate must be his best friend and encourage Paul's aspirations and ideals. Paul Stookey also needs a great deal of emotional freedom and mobility.
Paul Stookey has a sympathetic nature and instinctively reaches out to people in need of help. Stookey also has a deeply ingrained tendency to want to improve or "fix" other people's lives, which can be annoying to the person who has no desire to be changed or "helped" in this way. For Paul, affection and caring must be expressed in tangible acts of some kind.
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. Paul 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. Paul Stookey is very sensitive to music and can use it to achieve emotional balance and harmony.
Paul Stookey has a strong desire for genuine understanding with others and finds it easy to share his feelings with them. His feelings toward others are very loving and Paul is likely to have a lot in common with many of his friends.
Paul Stookey tends to go to extremes to be different or to preserve his freedom, and his nature is rather thoughtless, impatient and restless. He is daring and audacious, ambitious and determined, but feels that things can only be accomplished by using force.
He is definitely not one to wear his heart on his sleeve. Paul Stookey cares very much about others' opinions and craves love and appreciation as much as anyone - however one would never know it from Stookey's reserved and seemingly detached demeanor. Casual, superficial relationships do not interest Paul at all. He is cautious and serious about love and really desires deep, genuine, lasting relationships. Paul Stookey is old-fashioned about courtship and love relationships, and will remain faithful to his loved one in good times and in bad.
Paul Stookey may be attracted to older persons who are emotionally mature and reliable and can provide the security Paul desires.
When he cares about someone, Paul Stookey likes to show his affection with small favors or tangible gestures.
Paul Stookey also has considerable artistic or creative skill. In fact, Paul is suited for a profession involving beauty or pleasure or making people happy in one form or another.
He is serious and finds it difficult to enjoy himself in a lighthearted, open and playful way with others. Paul Stookey rarely does something purely for pleasure, and can be very close-fisted and parsimonious. Perhaps due to painful separations in his early life, Paul is very cautious about becoming involved in close relationships and sharing his feelings. Though Stookey craves love and affection, intimacy is difficult for him. He may become romantically involved with people who do not value him or treat him well. Paul Stookey needs to learn to love and value himself before he finds happiness in love.
He is prone to getting involved in highly intense, even obsessive relationships - "fatal attractions", so to speak. At its darkest, this urge for intensity in the personal arena may compel Paul Stookey to choose friends or mates who are rather dangerous or dishonorable characters with a penchant for manipulating and inflicting pain on their "loved ones". On the other hand, Stookey may be tempted to use his own sexuality or charm to play the same sort of game, to use love or friendship as a bargaining chip or to gain power over others. Even if his intentions are basically good, Paul Stookey will find that his closest relationships are rather tumultuous affairs in which some rather unsavory aspects of his character (such as jealousy and the desire to dominate or to be a victim) keep surfacing. These are qualities that need to be understood and ultimately outgrown.
