Your first name of Batholomeo creates a quick, clever mind capable of grasping and assimilating new ideas. Your feelings are very easily hurt and to protect yourself you withdraw within the realms of your own private thoughts and shut out the rest of the world. Craving understanding, love, and affection but disinclined to verbalize your emotions, you may appear cold and aloof to those who would offer kindness. You crave friendship, understanding, love, and affection but your reserved manner appears forbidding to others. A quick learner, you may be resented by those whose mental processes are slower, and be misjudged as a "know it all. Because you learn so quickly you have little patience with those whose mental processes are somewhat slower, and you could become supercilious or somewhat "know it all" in your attitude. From an early age you have desired a home, family, and related responsibilities, and although you are not demonstrative in your affections you have a strong sense of love and protection for those in your care. This characteristic could make you rather unpopular with your associates. Your sensitivity and lack of verbal expression frustrate and limit the satisfaction in life to be gained from your responsible and capable nature. Moods, which are your worst enemy, result.
