Sophie Okonedo values friendship very highly and in fact, she is more comfortable being a friend than a lover. Sophie desires an intellectual rapport or spiritual bond with her love partner, but deep intimacy and emotional bonding do not come easily to her. The traditional "husband" and "wife" roles do not appeal to Okonedo, and she abhors jealousy and possessiveness since she feels that no person truly "belongs" to another.

Sophie Okonedo often hides her affection, or finds her feelings difficult to express or get across to the person she loves. Being openly affectionate and trusting often does not seem safe to Sophie. She may feel her love will not be appreciated or reciprocated. Sophie Okonedo may get involved in secret love relationships or fall in love with a person who is quite unavailable to her.

She 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 Sophie Okonedo 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, Okonedo may be tempted to use her 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 her intentions are basically good, Sophie Okonedo will find that her closest relationships are rather tumultuous affairs in which some rather unsavory aspects of her 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.
