Denzel is not easily moved by emotional displays and can be curiously detached from his own and others' emotions. It's almost as if he could turn his feelings on and off at will so he should be careful not to leave the switch "off" too often, for he could easily become too impersonal. Family ties and attachments are not as important to Washington as they are to most people and he often considers his friends closer to him than his blood relatives. Certainly, his sympathy and concern extends much beyond his immediate family. In his personal relationships, Denzel insists upon a certain amount of independence and the freedom to pursue friendships with as many people, of both sexes, as he chooses. He does not appreciate a jealous, possessive partner.

He feels comfortable in an atmosphere that is open and experimental, and has little taste for convention and tradition.

Denzel Washington gets a lot of emotional fulfillment through his involvement in groups, clubs, organizations, community activities, or a network of close friends who support and care for him. He makes friends his family, and feels a close kinship with people who share some ideals or beliefs that he holds dear. He needs people outside his physical family to relate to and belong to.

Denzel often feels that he must do something or be something other than what he is in order to receive approval and acceptance from others. He is very sensitive to criticism and easily feel left out or neglected, and though he may appear cool or distant, he actually cares very much about being included. Because Washington is so sensitive, it may seem easier for him to withdraw into a shell rather than risk the emotional bumps and bruises that can occur when he lets others really know him in an intimate, personal way. His reserve and caution make establishing a close emotional rapport with others difficult for Denzel, and he becomes very attached to the few people he considers "real friends". He can gain inner security and strength through periods of solitude if he views them as times to nourish himself and develop his own interests, rather than as times of loneliness.

In love, Denzel Washington desires a deep, intense, passionate union with his beloved and form very strong emotional bonds and attachments. He "marries" the person he loves at a very deep emotional level, and is often extremely possessive and jealous of any threat to that union. Washington can be very demanding with his love partner. He tends to be somewhat suspicious of even platonic, friendly relationships his partner has. If ever betrayed, he is capable of hating with as much force and intensity as he once loved. He is attracted to people who have an aura of mystery about them.

Denzel craves very intense, deep, emotional relationships, and would even prefer stormy, tumultuous relationships to ones which are smooth but lacking vitality and passion. He loves wholeheartedly and expects all-consuming, total devotion and attention from his partner. Casual, light relationships hold no appeal for Denzel Washington.

He appreciates beautiful surroundings and congenial company, and though he enjoys helping people, Denzel will rarely put himself out too much in order to do so. He is good-humored and generous at heart but inclined to be lazy.

Washington's pleasure-loving nature and his emotional and material generosity discussed above are counterbalanced by a certain caution or restraint in expressing his affection, and by fear of heartaches. At times Denzel Washington is likely to be the jovial, friendly, rather extravagant person mentioned previously, but at other times he is far more contained as described here. Because he is upbeat and fun-loving, people probably do not suspect how sensitive Denzel is to being left out or unappreciated.

Intimacy does not come easily to Denzel and he may appear cold or unfeeling to others due to his emotional reserve and caution. Perhaps due to painful relationships and separations in his early life, Washington does not trust others very easily and it takes a long time to take down all of his barriers and defenses. He may feel that he has few friends or people that really care about him. He needs to learn to value and love himself more and to express his appreciation for others more openly.

When it comes to love, Denzel Washington is apt to feel pulled in several directions at once. In addition to his desire for depth and for security in his relationships, he has an impulsive side and needs a lot of variety and excitement, as discussed in the following paragraphs. These urges do not have to conflict, but they certainly can, especially if Denzel acts on your spontaneous impulses without much consideration for their long-term effects on his personal life.

Washington is open and progressive in his attitudes towards love and romance, and spontaneous and free in his love-expression. He is always willing to experiment and tries anything new that his partner suggests, and enjoys being surprised. Relationships in which both Denzel and his partner have a good deal of freedom and independence will hold his interest much more than a safe, predictable one.

Denzel experiences powerful, compelling emotional and sexual attractions, and may feel that he has little choice or control over his desires. He has an intense need for love and may be emotionally greedy or insatiable. His love life is passionate and often tumultuous and painful as well. Jealousy, power struggles, or possessiveness can become areas of conflict in Denzel Washington's relationships. Positively, he can be unusually creative and bring about beneficial and healing changes in the lives of others, motivated by deeply felt love.

Denzel Washington is rich in feelings and has the ability to express them well. He has a knack for making others feel good and is likely to enjoy a harmonious sex-life. He also has a strong need to create and may have a flair for designing fashionable clothes.
