It’s hard to ignore the sexy and mysterious overtones of the CRM names. The crisply pronounced letter C suggests an individual of decisive intelligence, while the racy qualities of the randy and rambunctious letter R combine with the warm embrace of the motherly letter M to hint at a passionate and charming individual.
But there’s also a dark – and even creepy -- aspect embodied in these names that stems from the CRM’s association with words like: cremate, crime, scream, crummy, acrimony, and cramp. Perhaps this is why we instinctively (if not a little unfairly) associate the name Carmine with being the quintessential Mafia hit man, or why these names are often chosen to represent mysterious fictional characters like Carmen San Diego, (the elusive heroine of the popular children's computer game) and Bizet's ill-fated Spanish gypsy Carmen (from the most famous of his operas). It’s also significant that the CRM root shares the same core letters as the words charming and chiromancy (another name for palmistry).
The unique combination of inscrutability and strength in the CRM names evoke romantic and dreamy spirits whose mystique is their greatest asset. There’s no question that CRMs make for nurturing and loyal friends, but it’s wise to keep in mind the wild side of their personalities, in which their gypsy-like natures make it hard for them to settle down in the traditional sense.
When it comes to their careers, the CRM’s enigmatic powers are suited less to concrete pursuits than they are to the creative fields. CRMs shine in professions like design, computer software, science and the arts, but you probably won’t find a CRM in corporate leadership. This is not because they’re ineffectual leaders, but because they adamantly refuse to work under someone else’s set of rules. CRMs need to be in firm control of their emotional well-being, and exhibit a strong sense of their own destiny. But don’t make the mistake of assuming that simply because they’re dreamers, that they’re incapable of making sharply rational decisions.
CRMs need their intimate relationships to be tinged with a sense of adventure, and when family life gets too predictable they’ll simply move on in search of more exciting settings. Since CRMs are comfortable with physical expressions of love, you can expect them to be experimental and inventive in the bedroom, and the living room as well. But don’t ever take them for granted. CRMs know how special they are and will expect some effort on your part. Romance—the old-fashioned kind with wine and roses— is an ideal tool for hanging onto your CRM lover
