When you are dating someone do you resist the urge to ask them their birth date/sign or do you ask them right off the bat? I went on a date last week and it was going "okay". Everything inside of me is telling me this man is a Cancer, but I didn't ask. I didn't ask him his sign largely because I just wanted to enjoy his company and get to know him and his personality over time. Isn't that the point of building a relationship? An hour into the date he asks me what my sign is... okay  here it comes. I tell him, but don't ask him his. That seem to bother him a bit  . The date comes to an end and I still have no idea what his sign is. Initially, as I stated because I simply didn't care. I won't lie, I WAS curious, but refuse to ask. Part of the reason I stated above, but the other reason was because when I saw that it bothered him and that he was "gently" trying to get me to ask him, it then became a bit of a game for me. I'm thinking since he's so into signs that he should know that little ploy wasn't going to work on a Scorpio right?  .So the question... Have you ever resisted the urge to learn someone sign when you are dating until it become unavoidable (e.g you've dated long enough and their birthday is about to roll around) and if so, why? If you are the type of person that likes/needs to know, why? |

| i usually ask anyone (not just romantic interests) who peaks my curiosity after a convo or two, lol. more to confirm my own guesses. of course astro can color/taint your initial perceptions of someone but i think it's still possible to remain objective in getting to know them. |

| By the way, what does "gently" trying to get me to ask him sound like: Him: I always found horoscopes are a good way to get to know someone Me: Hmmm Him: Yeah, people are always surprise when they find out my sign because I am nothing like what they expect Me: Hmmm  Him: Yeah..... *change topic, about 10 minutes go by then* Him: I have found that I am the most compatible with Scorpios and Taurus Me:  Really? How are you compatible?Him:  Me:  Oh, okay. sounds like we have a lot in common Him: *stares and waits* Me: So....those wings look good.... |

that was so rotten.  pure evil. I've been on a date where someone REFUSED to tell me their birthday. I even made a freakin thread about it. It can drive someone insane.  |

| Typical Scorp--not giving *anything* away which of course will just make this guy more intrigued. But he did mention Scorp so he was probably hoping you were a Scorp and you probably didn't want to give him the satisfaction of knowing! lol I'm guessing he's a Cancer as well. Cancer would definitely ask for your sigh AND he gets along with Scorp and Taurus?? Sounds Cancer to me.  |

Posted by exoskeleton Yup, exactly. That was why I didn't want to ask. I know myself. Being the control freak that I am I didn't want to "learn all about him" and have it taint my perception of him. I also didn't want to have "insider information" (if that's really possible) and then use it to my advantage (e.g. being manipulative). I'm on a journey of personal growth, as corny as that sounds  , so I am trying to do the opposite of what I usually do.And no, I still don't know what his sign is  . I still say Cancer based on our "courtship". It took him six freakin' months to ask me out after a lot of compliments and friendly, but aloof conversations. |

| I just start talking about something birthday or age related which leads me to ask their birthday. Most don't catch on ever. Only ones who have was one taurus and one aqua. It's not too hard to drift conversation to an age-specific topic/birthday topic if you're creative. Still have NEVER found a graceful and subtle investigative way to ask for a birth time to get the ascendant. Lol. I only get that when people find out about my lil hobby and ask me to pull a chart. |

Posted by ellessque I know.... He made it too easy. I'm the type of person that will randomly one day as we are watching a movie turn and ask "hey so what's your sign by the way?" after jokingly suggesting he is every sign in the zodiac...."Oh that's so typical of a Sag" "You're such a Gemini" to see what he says. |

| Well, I recently got a new boss and I immediately felt protective and calm so I was really really intrigued about his birthday. After a few days, I asked one of the secretaries to let me know his birthday so I could "put it in my calendar" for birthday greetings. Haha Turns out he's a Pisces. Met his wife--a lovely woman who was just sooooo sweet. Yep asked secretary again--she's a Pisces too. lol Cutest damn couple, I swear. Carry on... |

| i admire that, phoenix! i would've torn up his chart by now, lol. i don't think it's necessarily manipulative though. i mean if you check the weather forecast and then prepare appropriately, that's wise, right? god won't give a treetrunk. (this is a bad analogy, but hey ) as long as you don't try to present yourself to someone based on their chart.lol @ elly. i don't ask for a birth time until i'm close to someone and they know all about my astro obsession.  |
