LOVERS FALL INTO 9 CATEGORIES

LOVERS FALL INTO 9 CATEGORIES

SANTA BARBARA, Calif. (Wireless Flash) -- Here's bad news for swinging singles hoping to add a little variety to their love life: there are only 9 types of lovers to choose from. That's according to California-based psychotherapist Daphne Rose Kingma, author of "The 9 Types of Lovers: Why We Love The People We Do & How They Drive Us Crazy" (Conari). "Cool Cucumbers" are unfeeling folks like Clint Eastwood, "Emoters" are drama queens like Monica Lewinsky who cry and scream a lot, while "Attention Seekers," like Madonna, can never get enough praise from a partner. Woody Allen-like "Skeptics" tend to make fun of themselves, "Workaholics" are Bill Gates-types who can't find time for their mate, and Elizabeth Taylor-like "Perfectionists" are easily disappointed. The final three categories include "Fantasizers" who are romantics like Ally McBeal, Donald Trump-like "Controllers" and Mary Tyler Moore-like "People Pleasers" who always accommodate their lover's whims.
