The name of Srimali creates a dual nature in that you can be very generous and understanding, but you can also be so candid in your expression that you create misunderstanding. When you are happy and giving, you have a charming personality, you make friends easily, and would go to great lengths to help someone in need. You have your own strong opinions and it is not easy for you to be influenced by others to change your mind once you have reached a decision. Because of your definite ideas and opinions, you work best on your own, free from the advice or interference of others. Difficulty in accepting advice or admitting that you may have made a mistake causes you to appear to be stubborn and set in your ways. Thus, you have too often created the wrong impression, and friendships have suffered. Independence and freedom of action mean a great deal to you; therefore, you enjoy positions where you are giving instructions rather than taking them. You dislike monotony. This quality can spoil friendships and create losses in the affections. If you allowed it, temper and self-pity could be problems.
