I suspect there are a number of corollaries that we could derive from this as well. For example, people who have a tendency to get very excited about new people in their lives, frequently struggle with having to deal with bad reactions. Thus, they would end up with a number of coping strategies to deal with this.
On the other hand, people who have a bad reaction to enthusiasm from someone new may tend to avoid new people and or choose to spend most of their time with people who aren't very enthusiastic.
Then, there's the people who love that enthusiasm and thrive on it. For them, it's likely very hard to have a longterm relationship, because the enthusiasm fades over time and they lose what keeps them going.

Yes, that makes a lot of sense.
