> Jesse is a ' big ego ' character. All of her boyfriends ran away because of her compulsive need for control; she had many fights. She loves Matt because he's the only man who came back to her; she never went back to man who left her (or she put out of the door; she put Matt's stuff in his car and said ' its over' ) (looking for SM like relationship?; probably afraid to admit that she needs someone)
> Jesse seems intelligent enough to be aware of her character style; ' So I can't be rude and belligerent?' ' Its about control' ' Why would you marry when you have a job? ' (You look good) ' I know!'. Jesse orders Matt around: ' Matt put down the camera and come dancing!'

Hi Jan,
I've never seen this show but I'll tell you what I can from what you've mentioned.
Jesse seems to have Aggressive style as mentioned and needs to be dominate her boyfriends, control freak - her own worse enemy.
Vandy seems strange, a square peg. This would add up to Idiosyncratic. Having bad food in the fridge is not bothersome but a mouse being caught in a trap and dying as a result (the natural process) is unnatural to the Idiosyncratic.
