Your Existing Situation
Active, but feels that insufficient progress or reward is being made for the effort exerted
Incorrect. I am active but I think Im progressing well in everything Im doing even though I may be a little impatient at times with anything that is beyond my control.
Your Stress Sources
Wants to overcome a feeling of emptiness and to bridge the gap which he feels separates himself from others. Anxious to experience life in all its aspects, to explore all its possibilities, and to live it to the fullest. He therefore resents any restriction or limitation being imposed on him and insists on being free and unhampered.
Pretty much on the money except that there is no big gap that separates me from other people. I do valuve freedom as my highest priority and will resist any attempts to restrict me.
Your restrained Characteristics
Insists that his hopes and ideas are realistic, but needs reassurance and encouragement. Egocentric and therefore quick to take offense.
Very exacting in the standards he applies to his choice of a partner and seeking a rather unrealistic perfection in his sex life.
Somewhat true. I do elicit feedback from others about the choices I make but I rather that people disagree with them because I enjoy the challenge of "going it alone." I am egocentric but I dont take offence easily. Im concerned with self actualization first and foremost which is something that didnt come naturally to me, I hate to cultivate it. I do look for perfection in the woman that will mother my children, but I dont expect perfection out of anyone. I am resigned to never marry because I will not find a woman to meet my standards or maybe Ill settle for someone I just have a lot of fun with and can hold her own in any situation. I do consciously work toward perfection in anything I care about and have the most respect for those that do the same.
Your Desired Objective
Wants to make a favorable impression and be recognized. Needs to feel appreciated and admired. Sensitive and easily hurt if no notice is taken of him or if he is not given adequate acknowledgment.
Somewhat true. Im an exhibitionist and teacher by nature. Whenever I teach, I love for students to embrace the knowledge and wisom I am trying to impart but at the same time I love finding a new teacher and being wrong about things so that I can learn. When I learn a lot about a subject my interest in it starts to decrease. I love to learn and teach then learn something else and teach that. Im also far from sensitive. In fact, If wish I were a little more sensitive to criticism these days because I can be a bit of an asshole and not care when I upset people.
Your Actual Problem
Strongly resists outside influence and any interference with his freedom to make his own decisions and plans. Works to establish and strengthen his own position.
Afraid that he may be prevented from achieving the things he wants and therefore demands that others should recognize his right to them
True, but is that a problem?
