Love will keep us together and keep the Lover going. They lead with their heart, which they wear on their sleeve. They're selfless, and even though fully devoted to the one they adore, can sometimes neglect their own health and safety.

Strengths of the Lover

Devoted to another

Passionate about the object of their affection

Open with their feelings

Weaknesses of the Lover

Willing to die for another

Can lose their own personality while pleasing another

The Lover's Motivation:

To give everything they've got to another person. To make any relationship as strong as it can be.

Character archetype examples:

Romeo and Juliet

Jack and Rose

Jaime Lannister
