The letter M is the symbol of maternal love and is the key letter in the word mother in virtually every language on earth. So it’s not surprising that people, whose names feature the letter M, are usually described as having gentle and nurturing cores. But when the M occurs in words beginning with the sassy, sultry letter S, it takes on an element of provocative affection -- smooch, smarmy, smack, smutty, smoky, smoldering, smirk, and smoothie – whichperhaps explains why SMs so often display a high level of confidence and are universally well liked by the opposite sex.
The SMs’ high levels of physical and emotional energy enable them to seemingly cruise through life. With all this excess exuberance, these people are drawn to change and are always looking for new experiences to keep them on their toes. They could be considered high-maintenance in this regard, and friends are often left feeling that they’re simply tools to keep the SM occupied. Fortunately, one of their defining characteristics is that SMs genuinely like people: and almost always, people genuinely like them back.
When choosing careers, SMs usually favor high-intensity jobs over those more sedate and predictable, but because they’re famous for changing their minds, it’s not unusual for them to vacillate for years before making a commitment. The sharp-minded SMs are natural entrepreneurs, salespeople and marketers, and whatever they finally choose to do, they’ll probably have a role in bringing up the level of enthusiasm within the company.
SMs have uniquely powerful powers of persuasion and it's hard to resist their charisma once they’ve set you in their sights. In light of these persuasive powers, it sometimes seems as if they could have anyone they wanted. So what explains all their vacillation when it comes to choosing mates? It could be that they secretly don’t want to disappoint anyone by taking themselves off the market; but it’s more likely that they are perfectionists who would rather spend quality time with themselves than making small talk with also-rans.
If you’re married to an SM, you’re likely familiar with the frustrations of living with a person who's in such high demand. As they’re wont to remind you: just because they’re wearing your ring doesn’t mean that it’s in their nose. Still, the SMs’ nurturing side gets the better of them once children become involved, and they’re always careful to reassure their mates that their families top their priority lists.
