Difficulties Connecting??

Has anyone else felt like this, I'm sure someone else has...

It's weird but I feel like it's difficult for me to truly connect and be sympathetic to others. I feel almost detached sometimes. I would like to attribute it to my Libra moon, but my older sisters have their moon in Libra too, but they are not like this.

I realized this last night when I had a really great conversation with this guy, and I thought to myself, when have I felt like this before?? Thinking back, I realize I haven't had many of these enthusiastic conversations, where one instantly connects--not many.

Even than, it's not difficult for me to speak to people at all, but I don't think I have that many close friends, only a few aside from my family. I'm not even close to my cousins, and I watch my other siblings and they seem to have no trouble keeping good friends and staying close to my cousins.

Bleh, I don't know maybe I've been too self-absorbed, or maybe I've been gone to long living in Florida. I do kind of miss my friends there...

Yeah, you know it sucks, because (I don't know if it's the same for you) I want to be more than just superficial but I don't know how to without seeming false/fake. I have a Virgo rising... what's your rising Virgo07?

I think that earth rising makes it more difficult, because Earth and Air are probably the most impersonal elements their is. Fire and water are a little more emotional and intuitive.

Sometimes when I'm in situations I have no control over that Virgo mask always comes up and people either think I'm super shy or a snob.

I think the question comes from the Libra, most definitely, always questioning and weighing the pros and cons of any situation. There is definitely a cloud of certainty that hangs over those with a Libra influence.

i know that mask. the switch flips and its like a steel plate on your face. lately ive been trying to be as open and friendly as possible. i think about it constantly and make it a point to socialize a lot. you should give it a shot.

i feel like this sometimes. my cancer bestie brought this topic up one time and she has more friends than anybody i know. she was talking about how she talks and hangs out with everyone but that she can only count her real friends that she talks to about meaningful things on one hand. this made be feel better because i have only a few super close friends also. i don't think this is self absorbed either, i just don't think that every single person i meet is totally worth it

i'm pretty sure this is typical of everyone for every sign. most ppl we encounter, even if we get along with them, are going to end up being merely acquaintances. i know a crap ton of ppl that i can go out and have a great time with. we can all even engage in meaningful, interesting, and stimulating conversation but that doesn't mean we're going to be close. in the end i only have about 3 close friends altogether that i can count on to be there through thick and thin. i can't even count on most of my family for that.

I totally get you with the not being overly sympathetic.
I'm happy to prop a person up if they're down on their look, but after a time, I start thinking 'for treetrunk's sake, get with the programme !' and end up leaving them to it. I think your observations of other peoples interactions shouldn't get you down either, as they probably buy into the 'fake it 'til you make it' attitude (lifestyle choice for some..boo!!) moreso than you...you're too much of a smart(ass..hahah) for that, from what I've seen on here, and that's not particularly a bad thing.

I live in more than one country so it differs by the country. In Turkey I absolutely cannot connect with people. They are very unpredictable. It's like they think their butter doesn't stink. But in other countries like Ukraine Russia and Azerbaijan, I fully connect with people.

Maybe it's a country difference? Just like mine.
