They seldom practice what they preach themselves. They allow the situation to rule over and change their ideals according to the needs of the hour Divorced from reality, these people are hardly look at their own actions critically. Usually they are fishy about obligations but will honour all commitments with high esteem. Though they maintain a calm approach in life but at times when they loose their tempers, they can be the most fearsome people. Most of the times these people are ungrateful.
