Your name of Bette gives you a strong urge for independence. A physically active person, you have an appreciation for outdoor recreation, which you prefer to pursue on your own or with one or two close friends who share the same affinity for the peace of nature and the physical challenges it provides. You will not tolerate dominance by others because your freedom means too much to you. You have known misunderstandings and a tendency to jealousy and moods of depression. As a result, others withdraw from you as they find you to be somewhat severe, aloof, and uncommunicative. You can express yourself with greater ease in writing. Yet, when they get to know you, they realize you are loyal in friendships and would go to any length to help someone in need. Preferring the simple life, you are content to forego the comforts and amenities that many people regard as essential. You work best where you can combine physical labour and prefer to work where you can spend time outdoors. The health weaknesses due to the influence of this name could cause you to suffer either with headaches, weak eyes, sinus problems, lung and bronchial disorders such as asthma or emphysema, or a heart condition.
