In love

They approach love with seriousness and a focus on long-term commitment. Don't expect grand romantic gestures; their affection is shown through consistent acts of service and unwavering support. They value loyalty and stability above all, and will only commit once they are certain you fit into their meticulously planned future.

They are natural leaders through example, demonstrating unparalleled work ethic and a commitment to quality. Burnout often stems from their inability to delegate or their rigid adherence to process, struggling when unexpected changes disrupt their carefully constructed routines.
