You, my friend, are both one man/woman and also an island which is a pretty amazing thought, although somewhat unrealistic --- unless we are referring to problems like - losing your favourite goldfish, as opposed to *real* problems

In any event - at no point in the OP did I mention -ability to open up to a friend about one's problems-.
Whether or not you open up to your friends about the problems you have is a topic for another thread.
If your reaction to this ^ is "Huh?? But how ever would my friends know I'm going through a difficult period if I don't explicitly tell them??" -- Then either you have never been through anything serious, or you have no real friends.

I was not being sarcastic at all and actually concurred very much with Comatoes when he/she said that they stand alone.

In numerology, I have a Balance Number 1. This is the number energy that is, apparently, activated or depended upon when the individual is going through stress/trials and tribulations.

1 Doesn't share its problems and is a loner. Its not a matter of beating myself on the chest and saying "Well done", I don't know how to even start depending on others for emotional support.

Ok here's an example. There's a cyclone, your house is flooded.. Everything is damaged, you lost your car and all of your belongings.
This would be a difficult period in your life. You wouldn't have to explicitly call all of your friends and let them know: " Hey! Guess what? My house is flooded. I need help"
But your CLOSE friends - the people who give a sh*t would be there for you and they would offer help.
Those are the kinds of people I was asking about in this thread.

Loyalty is really important where Im from and yeah I would help out someone I consider a friend if they were in that situation.
Besides I have people crash over for weeks all the time..

So it goes both ways... I wouldn't go to someone who I wouldn't do the same for.

It's assorted.
Yeah I have a few leos I can depend.
Same with Pisces which are not always loyal by nature.

but I say something really opinionated and someone is offended.

and Im like Boohoo go **** yourself.
and their like WHY ARE YOU SO DEFENSIVE OMG.

That's Ironic. lol

But I don't like when people will start arguments but try and make you out to seem defensive..
It's like Im sorry if you ran out points to make..

I may search for support from others, but I rely very heavily on myself and only on myself. I don't expect anyone to come to my aid in times of crises. I have to be the one who pulls myself out.[/B]

LOL ascTaurus, we naughty children. What is your Moon sign and aspects? Your post really resonate with me. Some people seek support from their own reserves and resources, it's nothing wrong with that, as it's nothing wrong with having people stand with you, whatever rocks your boat. No medals required...

For me, I have a 12th house stellium and a 12th house person will be alone quite a bit. Some people come to the world this way, highly independent emotionally, physically, and/or intellectually. I have duplicated 7 and 8th houses in Aquarius, Moon/Pluto, Moon/Uranus.. I think the cosmos is trying to tell me that I need to believe in myself and stand with myself before I rely on others. That's some of my issues, to find my own voice and self-sufficiency and go forth.

I have a stellium in the 8th house; Sun,Jupiter,Neptune and Uranus in the sign of Sagittarius.

My Moon sign is Cancer and it opposes Mercury(Capricprn) and square Mars (Libra). It's actually a T-squre in cardinal signs.

Okay, okay I get it now. The examples are a wee bit dramatic though.lol

I thought that you meant in as far as "pouring your heart out to someone" or visiting someone for tea and sympathy.

I pour my heart out at random strangers when stressed and , odddly enough, they reciprocate with their own dilemas. Weird!!

And I don't do the "tea and sympathy" thing. I prefer beer and a round of squash, pool or volleyball with a casual stranger too.

As far as the cyclone example:

If everything I have is lost, I'll have to find a way to replace that which I can. If I need a place to crash until I'm on my feet again? Family can serve this purpose.

If the mother dying/dead;

My siblings and I would grieve together.

Is that satisfactory?
