Love of the Monkey
The Monkey is a great sentimentalist. His only problem is how to manage to hold on to the person he loves. His zany side can sometimes be disturbing. He is extremely charming and devoid of complexes, happy to bare his soul. He likes the sound of his own voice. At parties, he will not be on his own, but in the group of people creating the most atmosphere. When in love, he therefore has no fears and will immediately try to seduce the object of his desires.
He is not afraid of one-night stands, being capable of avoiding ties. He enjoys life and pleasure plays a great part in his everyday existence. He needs time to be able to succeed in maintaining a lasting relationship.
On the other hand, even with the person he loves, he will not tell all. He will always have his little no-go area. In love, he will have a tendency to seek out his own interests and will not commit to a person who does not bring something to the relationship. There is nothing of the Saint Bernard about him.
