The tiger and the dragon

This is a love compatibility for the tiger (me) and the dragon

------------


Characteristics of a Tiger

Passionate and dynamic, the Tiger is a stick of dynamite
waiting to go off. They are born leaders and usually have
the charisma to cause people to naturally follow them. Yet,
they have a sensitive, even artistic side as seen in the
passionate dancer, Rudolf Nureyev. They are also nurturers,
and the Tiger lady makes a great mom. The downside is they
are often hot-headed and foolhardy and may not always
justify the faith we place in them to lead us. Their
fault-finding and rebelliousness can be almost unbearable at
times. Still, we love the excitement they bring into our
lives and their redoubtable accomplishments.

Positive Traits:

Adventurous, affectionate, charitable, colorful, courageous,
dynamic, empathetic, exciting, humorous, optimistic, playful
and resolute.The adventurous and courageous Tiger is a born
leader. You are not afraid to blaze new trails, and, given
your independent streak, you are more than willing to go it
alone if necessary. Your firm determination also makes you a
fierce competitor.

Your passion also gives you the potential to be a star
performer. Colorful and dynamic, you have a commanding
presence before any group. Yes, we can count on you to
command our attention and generate excitement.

Interestingly, you have another side, that of the playful
kitten. It is characterized not only by youthful innocence
and optimism but also a playful sense of humor. You enjoy
telling jokes, which are all the more funny because people
usually see your serious side and are caught off guard to
see you out of character.

Your kinder and gentler side also includes a genuine
humanitarian streak. You are empathetic and keenly sense the
emotions and feelings of others, to which you respond with
compassion and a sincere desire to help when needed.

Negative Traits:

Anxious, argumentative, authoritarian, critical,
domineering, edgy, impatient, impulsive, narrow minded,
rash, ruthless, self centered and temperamental.

The downside of the Tiger's passion is that it can lead to
emotional distress, especially when frustrated by people or
events. You have a tendency to be anxious and edgy. This
uneasiness of mind could come from brooding fear about some
contingency or simply a feeling of being tense or on edge.

Your high energy level fueled by passion often makes you
impatient. You want to do things right away and can become
deeply frustrated with unplanned delays. Your rashness
sometimes manifests itself as impulsive behavior. There is a
bit of the fools rush in mentality in you. In other words,
you do not always think things through before you act.

You have a tendency to be self centered; so, this hasty
action occasionally fails to take into consideration its
affect on others. Your focus on yourself can manifest itself
in a form of narrow mindedness as contempt for the interests
of others. You also can hurt others by being overly critical
and argumentative when they do not perform up to the high
standards you set for yourself. And, you almost demand that
they do. Your sign is a strong one, and it is not surprising
you have a tendency to be authoritarian and domineering. At
your worst, you can even be ruthless. It is not wise to
cross you deliberately.

Qualities Admired: Forthrightness, sincerity.

Pet Peeves: Boastfulness, pettiness

Characteristics of a Dragon

Idealistic and proud, the Dragon is someone you want around
when something big needs to be done. They think in large
terms and dream big dreams. They are direct and up front,
always letting you know what is on their mind. Dragon is a
karmic sign, which means they will experience more than a
few extreme highs and lows in their lives. The downside to
the Dragon is that some are quixotic, i.e., wildly
unrealistic with their big plans, while others are simply
all talk or show and no action. Flattery will get you
nowhere with the mighty Dragon; they expect worship.
Nevertheless, the Dragon is the sign of luck, and we
certainly want them on our side.

Positive Traits:

Brave, decisive, dynamic, enchanting, exotic, fashionable,
flamboyant, idealistic, imaginative, proud, self confident
and tenacious.

The flamboyant Dragon is an integral part of every Chinese
New Year celebration, and why not! You often come across as
strikingly or mysteriously different or unusual. Maybe it is
your fashionable dress or your high energy.

It is no wonder you have a lot of pride and self confidence.
You generally command respect wherever you are. And, you are
always on the go.

You boldly confront the mightiest obstacles and accept
challenges that seem beyond the reach of others. You are not
only decisive but, having made a decision, tenaciously hold
onto the idea, moving heaven and earth if necessary, to
fulfill your dreams.

And, with your limitless imagination, what dreams you have!
As often as not they are very idealistic and geared toward
the betterment of mankind.

Negative Traits:

Aggressive, authoritarian, conceited, dictatorial, dogmatic,
domineering, eccentric, impractical, overzealous,
superficial, tactless and unpredictable. Unfortunately,
there are times the Dragon never gets beyond being a
dreamer. Perhaps your big dreams are too impractical and you
are just being fanciful. At times you might appear to people
as a strange eccentric or just someone who is all talk and
no action. All we can say for sure is you are unpredictable,
and we can never know whether yours is the next great idea
or just some crackpot scheme.

What we can say is that it is not unusual for you to have an
excessively high opinion of yourself. Call it vanity if you
will. It does grate on the rest of us in those moments when
it is obvious to us you are superficial and your behavior
tactless. Although you rarely intend any malice (it is not
really in you) your speech and mannerisms are occasionally
insensitive and offensive.This is most apparent when you
exercise leadership. You are often a born leader; yet, on
occasion you resort to a dictatorial style. You can be
oppressive or arrogantly overbearing towards others. You
sometimes play the authoritarian and require blind obedience
from your subordinates. Perhaps it is your overzealous
enthusiasm for otherwise noble ends that causes you to slip
into these behaviors.

Qualities Admired: Perfection, grandiosity.

Pet Peeves: Pessimism, being caused to lose face.
