VG knew exactly how many pieces of Halloween candy he gave out, and the precise moment when he did so and turned out the porch lights.

Spent an hour solid looking at VG's childhood neighborhood on Google Earth with VG, with ongoing narrative about historical routes to avoid parents & police, and detailed play-by-play of past pranks.

Spent a good 30 minutes calculating angles and rise for a potential new staircase in VG's house. Complete with scary tour of hidden spaces under an old chimney in a broom closet. Admired old-school building materials in 1910 house construction.

Got corrected for improper vocabulary usage.

Complete meticulous synopsis of VG taking care of his mom's multiple cats (including tally of how many times one of them threw up on the carpet).

Noted mutual instances of interrupting each other in conversation.

Quizzed on beer intake upon reporting back on my 1st homebrew club meeting.

Indirectly 'requested' to visit VG's office after our coffee lunch, via a snarky teasing comment that I've learned to properly interpret thanks to DXPers.

Multiple incidences of VG picking up litter while out & about.

And much much more! I don't know why all this stuff cracks me up, but now that I can 'translate' virgo to cancer a bit better, and now that VG & I have more time racked up together, all these quirks and mannerisms are rather cute.

That sucks!
Someone stole a mannequin (dressed as a mad doctor) from my porch one Halloween. That was it. I became a Halloween scrooge after that.

There's an old folk-tale trick for catching vampires that makes me think they must be virgos too....You're supposed to throw a handfull of rice or wheat on the ground, and the vampire is compelled for some reason to stop and count each grain. This can take long enough that the sun comes up and kills him/her.

A virgo wouldn't just count the grains though. S/he would probably pick them up and sort by size & weight

Friendship. Fun. Expanding my social circle a bit. One's partner can't be everything...or shouldn't be. Especially once you get to a certain age and have a lot of facets to explore beyond just building a relationship/household/family. As my partner often says "we're not joined at the hip"

There are some things VG & I like to do or talk about that are different than stuff my partner does with her friends. So it's nice to have someone I trust and feel comfortable with as an outlet. I'm also enjoying meeting more of his friends that are in the local music scene. I spent most of my adult life in the scene in Seattle, so it's fun to meet more folks like that in my new town.

Anyway....once the crushy stuff evaporated, and we've had more context to discover how well we click as friends, pretty much I am just enjoying the fun of making a new close friend and shaking up his social group a bit. With my farm, job, my partner's crazy shift work & overtime, I don't have huge blocks of time to rebuild my circle of friends I left behind when I moved here. So meeting VG has been a treat in a lot of ways. We have many similarities, enough differences to be interesting, neither of us is looking for a romance, we both have different groups of friends that it's fun to mix up....And I'm pretty sure he's on the same page. Just having fun with someone new who is of equal intelligence, age, experience, etc.

When I was over at his house, his ex-gf called (another virgo, he says much more nitpicky than him) and it was amusing to hear his end of their convo. Very precise, articulate, targeted language....
He said once where he would merely notice a crooked picture hanging at a restaurant, his ex would 'make' him get up to straighten it, and when he said no once, she actually squeezed behind a table of people to fix it

Just thought of another VG virgoism....when he divvies up anything, from slicing poundcake to share at work to sorting screws in his workshop, it all has to be as equal as he can make it. He even counts out cheese & crackers to make sure there is an equal amount of both.....

I do my own version of that when I'm sorting eggs into cartons for my customers. Each dozen has to have a fair distribution of all the colors and sizes of eggs, but it's more of an aesthetic thing than counting.

My Virgo is undefeated at scrabble. Apparently him and some co workers had
a scrabble.. phase.. which I heard about every night.. in detail..

The funny part is that I didn't understand why he would annoy his co workers
so much. That is, until I started playing with him... oh the fury of being beaten
by words you've never heard of! Including words of other languages that ARE
actually in the dictionary.. it's so stupid! aagh

It annoys him that the little lite bulb in my car went out and I refuse to let him
put in a new one..

His father is also a Virgo. I remember a time when my Virgo left his truck at
his parents house and when he came back the next week, it was immaculate.
His dad had cleaned it because he was bored.. it was cleannnn.. as in really clean!

On a trip one day his dad calls him and asked him if he had thrown the spare tire
in the back.. apparently he had been reminding him over and over to take a spare
during the day! lol What was the first thing he mentioned when we got back?
"Did you need to use the spare?"

Actually his dad is the picture of Virgo.. I could go on and on with tedious bits..

My Virgo friend new exactly how many days left of pregnancy our pisces friend
had.. I could swear he mentioned hours as well.. that was weird.

A Virgo gf once got irritated at me because I used my BARE hands to serve
chips at a party.. chips.. how disgusting am I?

One who possesses his Virgoeness in mystery.. hehe

Oooh I have another tid bit! My Virgo co worker once CRIED when another co worker
showed up straight from a night out (she looked torn up!) Her hair was a mess, her
makeup was a mess..

Ms. Virgo got so sad to see her like that and insisted Ms. Mess go home and get herself
together. The next day she said that she had gotten a headache and gone straight to
bed after work... after having cancelled a date. Good grief.

Actually, Ms. Mess was one of those atypical Virgos that is nothing like a Virgo! lol
That woman was absolutely nuts to say the least. She violated every Virgo law
there is. She must have been loaded with fire and air.

My partner (cancer/virgo/virgo) cleans for relaxation. And she'll wipe the same kitchen counter like 3 or 4 times, even after she sees me doing it.

My virgo boss will go straighten library books on the shelves if it's too rainy for her usual breaktime walk.

He is going to fall in love with you, this I promise.

Cancer women are too easy to fall for.

If a Virgo wants you, he wouldn't care for your partner; he'll go for the 'GETS'...

That is a sobering thought.
Aren't virgos too practical for that?
I took him at his word when he said he is only interested in friendship.

I sure as hell don't want to hurt someone I care about so much. But then again, maybe things won't follow that path...

Sekhmet -- if he figures you are interested in him, he will approach you. Friendship for a man can entail sex. He may think he is doing you good if he knows you are unhappy with your partner.

But I'm not unhappy with my partner.

In any case, it's an educational experience.....most of my close friends have been male, so I have lots of experience being in close contact but not crossing any lines. As long as all parties are honest about their intentions. And strong enough to keep any more-than-friends feelings where they belong.

It's the virgo aspect that is new to me. Very different than any other signs. Hence my thread about funny virgoisms.
