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

Richard Egan often makes decisions solely for emotional or personal reasons, because something "feels right" or because he has always done it a certain way and is uncomfortable acting otherwise.

Richard's pleasure-loving nature and his emotional and material generosity discussed above are counterbalanced by a certain caution or restraint in expressing his affection, and by a fear of heartache.
