Though she may love and care for someone a great deal, Madonna rarely expresses her feelings openly and freely. Very often Veronica Ciccone's love for someone is expressed by her wish to help others, do something tangible to benefit them or serve them in some way.

Veronica Ciccone may therefore come across as rather cool and aloof - much more so than she feels.

Madonna is assertive and confronts difficulties in a direct, no-nonsense sort of way. She cannot tolerate self-pity or passivity, and she can be rather brusque with others' emotional problems.

She enjoys a touch of drama and color in her love relationships and is impressed by grand romantic gestures or extravagant expressions of generosity.

She thoroughly enjoys working with others on group projects or community activities, and is quite happy when she is a part of a club, support group, or team of some sort.

Madonna has a very romantic, idealistic vision of love relationships and may be disillusioned to discover that no real, flesh-and-blood human being ever quite lives up to her dream image of the "perfect love".
