I'm a Fig, husband is an Apple, and neither fits us totally - only 1/2 right.  Go fig-ure!  Perhaps we have been wrongfully grafted to another tree?  LOL!

MAPLE TREE (Independence of Mind)(very) - no ordinary person(very different), full of imagination and originality(definitely imagination), shy and reserved(fits) , ambitious(who me?), proud(no way), self-confident(well ok), hungers for new experiences(hehe), sometimes nervous(only sometimes, tapping my fingers), has many complexities(many isn't big enough), good memory(so so), learns easily(try to), complicated love life(definitly), wants to impress(maybe just abit).

I think I am just in alittle bit of denial. What do you think?

I am a Pine (feb 25) - which in itself is fitting as I LOVE Pine trees.

I am indeed idealistic, trustworthy and active and I adore agreeable company...

BUT - lets see - seldom friendly? NOPE - I am ever friendly. Practical? Only sometimes!! And I NEVER give up.

Hehe - so, half right I suppose.
