Your first name of Pontin creates a quick, clever mind capable of grasping and assimilating new ideas. Although you are very knowledgeable and intelligent, you often find spontaneous verbal expression difficult. You crave friendship, understanding, love, and affection but your reserved manner appears forbidding to others. " You do not mean to offend but being reserved creates a barrier in communication and makes you appear disinterested. You tend to be studious, analysing each new idea before accepting it. Your feelings are easily hurt and so, to protect yourself, you withdraw within the realm of your private thoughts. For your interest to be retained you need to be mentally challenged; this was most evident when young and in school. This characteristic could make you rather unpopular with your associates. Health problems revolve primarily around worry and a weakness in the respiratory area that could lead to problems with the heart, lungs, or bronchial organs. It is often only through writing that you open up and convey your deepest feelings and true appreciation for those you love.
