Tony Lopez seeks to make his inner wealth outwardly manifest and substantial.

Relatively extroverted, Tony Lopez leads a life which is open to the outside world. His personal consciousness is forged by the heat of outer events. He is inclined to adopt the most objective viewpoint possible to be pragmatic and perhaps even materialistic.

While Tony Lopez contributes to important social causes or collective ideals, he tends to keep his individual identity intact. For this reason, although he may become personally involved in social affairs, he is likely to resist any project he will be unable to lead himself, according to his own individual direction. He tends to identify himself with an activity with social implications and attempt to know himself through this activity.

Tony Lopez needs to assert his originality. He is individualistic and independent and lives life according to his own rules. People and things matter to him only insofar as they relate to him, and he ignores or disregards any annoyances he may encounter. His passions are lively and ardent, and he truly loves to give. He is endowed with great authenticity and can be quite generous, as long as he is aware that others admire him.

Tony Lopez works harder than others to understand other people’s feelings. But this seeming lack of empathy and compassion for others simply mirrors Tony’s own difficulty in understanding his own feelings and emotional needs. Tony is not insensitive, but he is baffled by his own emotions. He sees the emotional world as a foreign terrain, perhaps fraught with hidden dangers. Becoming familiar with it would present more drawbacks than advantages. As a result, Tony may appear to be hard or aloof.

Tony might struggle to establish a rewarding relationship, as he seeks special individuals to bond with. If Tony were able to accept and understand his own emotions, he would have an easier time grappling with other people’s feelings.

Tony has a strong desire for emotional independence, and might have trouble seeing other people’s emotional needs. Tony might even be the first to deny that such needs are real.

As a result, Tony’s dependency on others is unconscious. Because it is seen as such a threat, it is repressed. Actually, although Tony offers conscious resistance to anyone who tries to lure him out of his emotional bubble, he is always making timid, half-conscious forays into the world of feelings, because his loneliness and fear are so unbearable.
