Default Where do personalities come from?

Okay, we agree to disagree.

Or, we are on the "same wave length"

Is it personalities?

Does heaven forbid horescopes come in to play?

Well i have learnt that i am definately attracted to Libra but have been engaged and married to a Gemini and i'm a Gemini?

Is it that we thing "left or right brained predominately" as to how we are attracted to like minded people...?

Is it passionate people that can relate to passionate people?

Now let me create a whole new world for explainations and answer!!!

Because it's another interesting thought is it not?

"Anolitical "( how ever you spell it) lol. Verses, " Creative"?

I think not, in that reference, i can get along with someone who analysis and i can get along with those whom are creative...

Those whom are Geminis and those who are another star sign...

Ah the brain, thing......

Bring it on....

Tell..

I myself haven't quite come to any conclusion as to whether or not I believe in the horoscope/signs as to explain why people are the way they are or think the way they think.

I have often wondered though how much of a persons character is pre-determined at the very beginnings of their life, when the sperm meets the egg, and how much is determined by the parenting they receive and their environment. In other words how different would I be if I had been raised across the waters with some of you? How different would I be if my mom and dad hadn't been so protective?

As for me, I'm also a Gemini and I've been married to an Aquarius. Now I'm attached to a Scorpio.

I think horoscopes are a load of rubbish, but then I think that basically any unsubstantiable belief structures are just wishful thinking. I certainly wouldn't deny the posibility that experiencing your first months in different seasons of the year could play some small effect on the way your personality developed.

Horoscopes are just the art of bull-poo. Talking in a vague roundabout way that covers all situations.. Because people want to believe in them, they'll find a way to distort their personality to make it true. Just like people do with religion - they want to believe it so they won't analyse the bits that don't make sense, etc.

Sex has a lot to do with how peoples characters turn out too, as any Freudian will tell you... And I mean from the age of like 3 not necessarily when peope actually start having sex... If a person is smarter or more ****** (which can be down to both rubbish genes and rubbish parenting) will also greatly affect someone - whether they will be snobby and look down on people (like me), or if they constantly fight to try and prove themselves.

You take a lot of traits straight from your parents, whether you want to or not - for example my girlfriend hates her mum, and will be complaining about a character trait she has and how she'd never be like that, even though she is incapable of seeing it in herself.

Social interaction or lack thereof also play a massive part, if your friends are bad influences, if you are rejected by the social norm, whether you are short or tall, have a big penis/**** yadda yadda yadda.

There's so many contributing factors, that it's basically like trying to find the unifying equation of the universe. People are as they are...

Good lord, Anon...Pray tell we are now blood brothers....I agree with what you have said.

I was a middle child...Being a middle child I had to fight harder. Things did not come easy and I developed into the type of person I wanted to be....Unfortunately for me it has not stopped....I have a matching set with my husband and we are two of the happiest people in the world...Both lost in la la land....TC, C

I was also the middle, older sister, younger brother. Both of them have more aggressive personalities, won't take poop off of anyone. Me, somehow I got the passive personality, would rather have peace even at the cost of my own feelings. Maybe some of that stems from watching those two fight with each other growing up.

Ah to laugh early in the morning!!!! Especially when you re-read my thread and realise for the first time there is a spell check here!!! And i should use it, lol.... And then you add, "the sky is falling by well, - fallen" Sorry ....

Yes the horoscope thing.... Given that a Gemini is "2" people, and i appreciate, ANON, it is my "brain" doing the double take, but yep, that would be me. Given that my ex-fiance and ex-husband and i were not compatible it is fair to say that you steer clear of the same star sign, lol... But i truly get along with most people, just Libras that i have met and i seem to get on in the "mind", as well more so than other signs.....

If you were raised in Australia, verses America, i don't know.... I still had to stand up to myself at school but i think as a child it may have been a much quieter up-bringing, especially South Australia as it is more like a Country Town... And i'm not quiet? I definately can re-late to protective, perhaps over protective, like sit in that chair whilst i coach basketball so i can see where you are at 14? Gee... Wrapped in cotton wool i used to say but then i left at 16, i needed to be FREE and ME! Having said that, the morals i was bought up on, at least didn't lead me astray on the streets and i turned out ok! "That's my opinion and i am allowed to say it!!! " But as for personality? Well it did make me very strong. For instance, if i fell, i would get "get up" not oh come her love, let me cuddle you, but yet i am an extremely affectionate person in nature, so the opposite... I only had one brother and no girls in my street or near by, bit of a tom boy, maybe that played a part as well in strength, who knows, yet i am very feminine, extremely.

I do agree with people being obssessed absolutely and moulding themselves around it or a belief in general, like tarot cards, palm reading, she said so this will happen.

And parenting definately plays a part but in "character building"? Maybe more so, how you see the world and people in it....

That i can relate to absolutely. My mother had very little, still does, patience and i have had to really change that in me over the years... But then i also know that lots of people will say " well, i will not bring my child up like that" and aim at doing things differently to anything they did not agree to when they were children, with their children... Or physcologically, having the same make up and beliefs as dear dad did who went to gaol and son followed suit, seems to be an often occurance.

Social interaction i think "builds again character" or destroys it and of course, character is part of your personality, make - up...

I wrote something the other day, and then the next day, i made a small joke about it, and was then replied to with lol, pertaining to that's my make-up intense and i thought, well yes, it is... My cup has to be full, not half full, or half empty.......And, if i think about it, that's because of all i want, i'm hungry for life, learning, succeeding, loving, everything.... I think my family are only simular on the succeeding front with businesses and never give up and our love is kind of a strange family love, we certainly do, but we certainly all speak our minds now... Funny really.

And as i said, i had a brother, 2 years older, "shot me with a slug gun" in the leg, little....... lol, always caught me out being naughty and threated to dob unless i did the dishes, that was funny because my Mother would know who's turn it was so busted each time.... But he and i are great mates... But yes, i to sat in the peace zone, as there was no one else around just him......
