agree  Eloi Castellví Alonso: Aún a pesar de que puede traducirse como "de buen corazón", el adjetivo "cariñoso" encaja muchísimo mejor aquí porque se está hablando de una característica temporal ("puede ser cariñoso") y ser "de buen corazón" se es siempre, no a ratos.

agree  Miguel Armentia: Además del problema de decir "muy de buen corazón". Pero cariñoso queda muy bien, ¡y qué rapidez!
