NUMBER 4 IN RELATIONSHIPS
Number 4s approach love and relationships seriously and they are unlikely
to play the field. Long-term commitment is likely to be the priority for number
4s, and other people will be attracted by the stability and security offered by
them, and in turn number 4s will be attracted to vulnerable people who need
more control and stability in their lives. Generally, number 4s are loving,
considerate and caring partners and they will be protective of their chosen
partners and will be faithful and dependable.
Number 4s should be careful not to dominate their partners though and
should allow them plenty of freedom and space to be individuals. Number
4s often find it difficult to express their emotions openly to their partners,
and this may be interpreted as a lack of feeling. Partners of number 4s
should accept that their mates are not prone to romantic outpourings but
that they demonstrate their affection in other ways. Number 4s should make
attempts to be more open with their partners.
Stress in the lives of number 4 people can create difficulties if they direct
their frustrations towards their partners. They will often take stress home
and create arguments in order to cope with their personal difficulties.
Number 4s and their partners should be aware that this is a trait that exists
and work out a strategy for dealing with it. It is especially important that
number 4s are honest and open about their emotions in these situations or
otherwise they may jeopardise their relationships.
4s demand honesty within all of their relationships and are quick to see
through any lies, fabrications or falsehoods. They are able to put 2 and 2
together, and once deceived and lied to, they never forget.
4s make solid and dependable partners in marriage and long-term
relationship settings and appreciate honesty, open-ness and love from their
partners in return.
4s are happy to, if not driven to ensure that their house/home environment
is solid, comfortable and well-stocked, and they appreciate partners who
enjoy good food and beverages with them. They are not necessarily overlyinterested
in the material aspects or luxury items, but prefer solid, functional
and practical home features and enjoy comfort rather than bling.
