Your name of Marilena makes you independent, self-reliant, and determined. You desire affection and understanding but often leave the impression that you want to be left alone. Although you tend not to like crowds and social activities, there are occasions when you feel lonely and misunderstood. You are often drawn into pioneering circumstances in which you work alone without the benefits of congenial association. You enjoy exploring and observing animals and birds in their natural surroundings. You crave affection and understanding, but rarely find it as others do not understand you and accuse you of being cool and aloof. You are quiet and gentle mannered as a rule, preferring silence to argument and turmoil. The average person would never realize the true depth of your nature. This name would cause tension in the head through troubles with either eyes, teeth, sinuses, ears, or throat or cause headaches. The insecurity you experience from limited verbal expression and social ease results in a jealous possessiveness and suffering through frustration, repressed emotion, and self-consciousness.
