Your first name of Berdette creates a quick, clever mind capable of grasping and assimilating new ideas. Associating with your own age group often does not hold your interest and you tend to seek the stimulation of minds more mature than yourself. Often you are drawn to the out of doors as a coping mechanism for bouts of loneliness and moods. Although you are very knowledgeable and intelligent, you often find spontaneous verbal expression difficult. Your feelings are easily hurt and so, to protect yourself, you withdraw within the realm of your private thoughts. A quick learner, you may be resented by those whose mental processes are slower, and be misjudged as a "know it all. You are rather studious, mentally challenging each new idea before accepting it. You have a sensitive nature--sensitive to your environment and particularly sensitive to how your deeper and more serious interests are regarded by others. Your sensitivity and lack of verbal expression frustrate and limit the satisfaction in life to be gained from your responsible and capable nature. It is often only through writing that you open up and convey your deepest feelings and true appreciation for those you love.
