I thought of this many times. And as much as I’d like to be, I’m not so certain I am, and it’s probably not so easy to be either I assume. I ran this through with someone on another forum. What exactly it meant and how do you know if you are one.They told me that I’m probably empathetic and probably not an “empath” I suppose there’s a difference.

I’m really not sure if I am. But Im not really sure of anything. Im always doubtful. But I think that Im possibly for sure more “compassionate” than probably an empath.

The thing is, from what I see what an empath means, it’s not something that’s very common. I see so many people claim to be empaths but I doubt that they are. It’s probably just as comman as being a sociopath/psychopath. And I dont think astrology can really show it. Maybe a chart that is more spiritually inclined? I don’t know.


In my opinion compassion and empathy is incredibly valuable, you should be proud of that.

I've heard it's uncommon too but from what my Aqua friend described to me last night it sounds correct. She's been stressed lately and she disclosed to me part of it's from negative energy at her work. And said that she absorbs it and gets in her head and it brings her down. I just never figured her for one, though she is more emotional and sensitive than she let's on. Also pretty sure I'm an empath or at least a hsp myself. So that's another interesting layer to our relationship lol

Maybe it has nothing to do with astrology I can't say it does. But I've noticed that people with a lot of water especially Pisces are very intuitive and emotionally sensitive. That's why I was asking about placements. At the same time psychopaths and sociopaths are really all about how the brain is wired so definitely not astrologically determined imo


What are your placements?

I definitely think it’s really good to be compassionate or empathetic. I think it’s so important. Although I wish I can feel everything more, so Im not really an empath unfortunately. Typically I can put myself in others shoes, some things come easier than others though but if I put my effort into it I can. I imagine. Is it something I feel in myself? No not really, I can distinguish my feelings from others. Actually there are times, more specifically times of nervousness I can sense nervousness around me and makes me nervous. Also people getting angry around me is overwhelming but I don’t actually get angry myself so In not absorbing their emotions. I think I am quite able to tell if someone is sad, botherd, etc the thing is I am not always observant of my surroundings and I am also able to separate my feelings from others. But even if people around me being nervous makes me nervous I don’t think that being an empath. I think that’s a normal emotional reaction.

I don’t know if what your friend describes is the same as being an empath though. I think people get stressed in situations from others around them it’s the norm I think.

Sociopaths/psychopaths definitely can be any sign cause maybe like you said, it is something hardwired from birth. But I believe an empath can be someone from any sign.


I'm a cold, cold, Sagittarius lol

Image Not Found

Here's my chart in case you wanted to know more than just signs.

Maybe your just normal, you could also just be highly sensitive. And if we go with the definition and experiences of other empaths she sounds like she fits. Either way I'm certainly not going to correct her on it, not sure how I could know for sure anyway. Idk if it's a spiritual, psychic, whatever, kind of thing but I do believe it's real and yeah I'd agree any Sun sign could be this way. Just wondered if some placements in some positions played a role.


I’m not saying you are cold. Please don’t misunderstand. I didn’t know you were a Sagittarius. It’s just people always want to say Aquarius are the cold ones, yet I have an Aquarius moon (supposedly the coldest moon sign) and yet I have met Sagittarius moons, Aries moons, Taurus moons, and even Cancer moons who I thought seemed even colder to me. But Aquarius is always the one being called these cold and emotionless monsters. That’s why I don’t like clump people up as one and say one is more caring than the other. Because that isn’t always true and I think it’s messed up for people to assume that you have no heart or empathy because the sign your moon is in. I have known nice people in every sign and I believe every sign has it’s good and bad apples. Every sign has its warm and cold people. Natal charts are quite complicated. Either that or astrology is not very accurate. I dont know.

Also from what I see on your chart you’re a Pisces Ascendent, so neptune is your chart ruler and you have mercury and venus conjunct neptune. That gives Pisces influence on you as well. Your sun conjunct moon is also a good placement. So maybe that’s what makes you feel the way you do.

I don’t know how you or your friend feel. All that matters is how you feel. If you feel you are both empaths, that’s good, I see it as a gift. If I were you I’d use it to the best of it’s ability to help others because I think an empath can do that better than anybody. I’ve never been sure it exists but I think it does. So not many people have it. I think it’s a blessing. It may be hard at times though, so it’s best to learn to not let everyone’s energy overwhelm you. There’s much to learn. The person I talked to on another thread said her friend couldn’t live in the normal everyday life. They had to live away fron people somewhere far in nature.

No please don't misunderstand me. I know you weren't implying I was cold I was just joking. Unfortunately tone is sometimes lost on the interwebz.

It's likely that Aquas get the most flack for being 'cold' but I've heard it said a lot about Sags too. I think it's all perspective more than an unempathetic person. Aquas get called cold because they don't always process emotions in a typical way, and they're very logical making them come off as detached. Sags get called cold cause we're rarely vulnerable and are brutal honestly spares neither friend or foe and we can be distant. So I tend to not take such claims too seriously. This is all in a general sense btw.

Yes, I am trying. I'm not sure if I have a choice at least if I want peace of mind. I just care too damn much. So I can't say I don't have selfish motivation. But I want to make a positive difference in the world before I die. I don't blame that person's friend, it's like constant overstimulation. Can be very overwhelming and exhausting.

Not really an empath eventho i have some Water placements.

I'm trying to be one tho lol.


What signs and planets are they in? If you don't mind saying.


Venus and Mars in Pisces. And they're conjunct in 1st house.


Ooh interesting! Is that conflicting for you or no?


Should it be conflicting? Why?


Sorry misinterpreted, I'm still learning this stuff. I suppose it's actually supposed to be more harmonious than conflicting and charming?


Well the planets in my chart are mainly pairs so I guess it's more to harmonious.

Sun and Moon same sign same house.

Venus and Mars same sign same house (conjunct).

Jupiter and Uranus same sign same house (conjunct).

Saturn and Pluto neighboring sign neighboring house (conjunct).

Charming? I'm not so sure.


Nice! Oh idk that's just a possible trait when Mars and Venus conjuct in the first house. At least what I read. Oh but you're an Aqua right or Aquaish? Automatically charming lol

Also unrelated but in your description tag is Arlong Park in reference to the forum?


By the book yeah Venus and Mars conjunct in 1st house can be really charming.

Yes I'm an Aqua sun. What yours?

Not a reference to the forum 😄 it's one of my favorite places in One Piece and it sounds fun (Arlong Park) hence I put it.


Sag sun🔥

Oh cool, another One Piece fan! I liked that part of the story. I used to be on the forum a long time ago. Man, now that place was viscous, woof!

This question is for research purposes...

I know better than to believe the whole Aquas are cold schtick. But it suprises me that an Aqua would call themselves this unless they have some significant water in their charts. Am I incorrect in this thinking?

Do you see yourself as an empath and if so, what are your non sun placements?


" But it suprises me that an Aqua would call themselves this"

It surprises me as well, if an Aqua would CALL THEMSELVES this 🙂 🙂

are they? sure

call themselves to be one? no (or if, thats a pretentious narcis of an aqua) 🙂

how was the situation?

Lol she's no narc but she has a healthy ego but I like that.

I suppose I should give a bit of context. So this whole confession came up cause about 2 weeks ago I texted her twice but never got a response back. Normally not an issue, I'd just wait a day or so and bug her again. However I'm currently dealing with some heavy stuff so it bothered me and then I got sick. When I finally texted her she had just noticed the previous texts and freaked out about how long it's been since we talked (it's unusual for us). She said she was stressed and apologized multiple times.

We met up the next night and she apologized again and said normally she's very conscious of others feelings but she was stressed from whats going on in her life plus other peoples stuff. And that she absorbs the negative energy etc. So I asked if she was an empath and she replied yes. So technically I asked about it specifically...I was just shocked cause I've never heard anyone call themselves or describe themselves that way in person.

I do believe people can be quite good at reading body language though.

Body langue, tone and observing.

I'm more intuitive than anything; clairaudient and clairsentient those I relate too. I used to have precognitive dreams too, so did my mom. It's been some times since that has happened, which I am glad for, it would freak me out.

IMO, it's more than just having water placements in a chart. Here is just one site that lists different stuff.

https://gigiyoung.com/indicators-of-psychic-ability-in-your-natal-chart/


thats a really nice site.



i resonate with both water and earth intuition..



Earth Intuition

If you hold a lot of Earth in your chart, you will likely make a great medium. You may find it very easy to tap into deceased loved ones that are just beyond the Earth’s veil and wanting to bring through their Earth-based experiences to validate their existence or give a message. You also may find yourself being a physical empath, meaning that you physically feel other people’s aches, pains, or ailments. You may also have a strong ability to command matter and be a natural hands-on healer. You also may be drawn to shamanic practices or nature-based religions. The Earth itself can feel like a temple to you— it may heal you and connect you to your spirit.



Water Intuition

Emotions are going to be a vehicle for intuition if you have a lot of water in your chart or if the Moon and Neptune are in strong positions. This may make you an empath, which means that you will have the ability to feel and hold the energy of others, not unlike how water holds and reflects energy. A heavy water influence is also going to make you a natural connector and conductor of spiritual energy. Your life purpose may involve reminding people of how interconnected we all are because the feeling is so visceral. You feel the spirit world all the time, you know the rhythm behind consciousness and are always translating it into art, which is the gentlest way to digest spiritual information.



Interestingly, my sister who is an Aries with strong pisces placements, and Taurus moon,

she is mediumalistic.. how i call it. she can hold someone in her ...like a spiritual entity, which what exactly mediums do.

I have the ability to go in and out of the spirit world.



oh i can do what she does too, but i try not to be a vehicle for the deceased. they do come to me alot in the past, because i can and have seen them and felt them. They only do that to those who can actually channel, even if you are not related to them.

I've had this happen and my mother and grandmother too, like neighbor's who passed away and the deceased go to to my family members and show themselves to them,

and then my mother or grandmother has told the neighbors, "I had a talk and a dream about your deceased husband"

so of course, the neighbors in this case wonder WHY the husband or wife who passed away does NOT go to their wife/husband

because it's NOT that easy. not everyone can be a vehicle or have the spiritual channel.

I relate to the water one too. That's really wild about you and your sister! Do you also find yourself physically sensitive, maybe in terms of sensing changes in weather or the environment?

My family has a weird intuitive, maybe psychic sense as well. Lots of weird stories, many witnessed so it's not just an exaggeration. I guess I inherited it. Not sure how this could be a chart related thing since there's many people involved.

I agree with this statement for myself but I'll correct "they care on the surface" part. I am generally a nice person and look like a nice person too. I'm also a great listener, which is why I attract all these talkative narcissists or sad people who feel unheard.

lol I always ask an empath what I'm feeling. 10/10 times they failed.

Does not equate to it not being an actual thing. However I'm under the impression that an empath can sense energy or emotions but not necessarily know the exact feeling. That seems more like a psychic thing?

I’m definitely an empath.

I’ve got Aquarius in my Sun (6th) and Venus (5th), Leo Moon in the 11th, Pisces Mercury in the 6th, Aries Mars in the 7th and Virgo Ascendant. Oh and I feel as if my Ceres in the 1st makes me appear quite mothering and nurturing towards others.




Oh hi there, how are you? Ah I've been meaning to say that I never got the notification from your quote in one of your topics until much later, sorry.

Very interesting. Do you see yourself as mothering and nurturing as well?

I do believe people can be quite good at reading body language though.

Body langue, tone and observing.

I'm more intuitive than anything; clairaudient and clairsentient those I relate too. I used to have precognitive dreams too, so did my mom. It's been some times since that has happened, which I am glad for, it would freak me out.

but i dont know any other way to describe it.

i have the ability to open the veil to the other side.



oh and it's PURE scary as shit. i dont oftne want to do it, because it is incredibly frightening!!!. i even get scared at some moments in the past.

i have to call out guardians to PROTECT me if it gets TOO intense or i get sucked in. it is just no other feeling in the world.

i have the ability to open the veil to the other side.



oh and it's PURE scary as shit. i dont oftne want to do it, because it is incredibly frightening!!!. i even get scared at some moments in the past.

i have to call out guardians to PROTECT me if it gets TOO intense or i get sucked in. it is just no other feeling in the world.

(you can believe me or not..up to you) *shrug*

No I don't mind but I won't go into great detail, otherwise I'll be writing a book.

Things like my cousins seeing the spirit of a recently deceased loved one. She apparently talked to them. My grandma predicting certain events, same with my mother. My great grandma predicted her death. Though you could argue she was just really in tune with her body. Anyway she told her family to come by a day before cause she was going to die. And she did, gathered people around her bed, shared some words and died. As for myself one that sticks out is when I was little my mother parked at a store near a light post. For whatever reason I had a bad feeling so I asked her to re-park. She went into the store, I stayed in the car. About maybe 20 mins later this truck backups right in that parking spot and hits the light post. Crazy weird.

I don't have any experience with that but I wouldn't dismiss it either. It's kind of complicated. I believe in logic, reason, and science but I'm also spiritual. I believe in malevolent and benevolent spirits. But I'm also sceptical. However I've seen, heard and experienced enough weird stuff to know there are things in this world we can't explain and don't fall into the realm of science, at least for now.

And honestly we're on an astrology forum if someone looks at your post and thinks it's silly...they need a reality check lol

I do believe people can be quite good at reading body language though.

Body langue, tone and observing.

I'm more intuitive than anything; clairaudient and clairsentient those I relate too. I used to have precognitive dreams too, so did my mom. It's been some times since that has happened, which I am glad for, it would freak me out.

IMO, it's more than just having water placements in a chart. Here is just one site that lists different stuff.

https://gigiyoung.com/indicators-of-psychic-ability-in-your-natal-chart/


thats a really nice site.



i resonate with both water and earth intuition..



Earth Intuition

If you hold a lot of Earth in your chart, you will likely make a great medium. You may find it very easy to tap into deceased loved ones that are just beyond the Earth’s veil and wanting to bring through their Earth-based experiences to validate their existence or give a message. You also may find yourself being a physical empath, meaning that you physically feel other people’s aches, pains, or ailments. You may also have a strong ability to command matter and be a natural hands-on healer. You also may be drawn to shamanic practices or nature-based religions. The Earth itself can feel like a temple to you— it may heal you and connect you to your spirit.



Water Intuition

Emotions are going to be a vehicle for intuition if you have a lot of water in your chart or if the Moon and Neptune are in strong positions. This may make you an empath, which means that you will have the ability to feel and hold the energy of others, not unlike how water holds and reflects energy. A heavy water influence is also going to make you a natural connector and conductor of spiritual energy. Your life purpose may involve reminding people of how interconnected we all are because the feeling is so visceral. You feel the spirit world all the time, you know the rhythm behind consciousness and are always translating it into art, which is the gentlest way to digest spiritual information.



Interestingly, my sister who is an Aries with strong pisces placements, and Taurus moon,

she is mediumalistic.. how i call it. she can hold someone in her ...like a spiritual entity, which what exactly mediums do.

I have the ability to go in and out of the spirit world.



oh i can do what she does too, but i try not to be a vehicle for the deceased. they do come to me alot in the past, because i can and have seen them and felt them. They only do that to those who can actually channel, even if you are not related to them.

I've had this happen and my mother and grandmother too, like neighbor's who passed away and the deceased go to to my family members and show themselves to them,

and then my mother or grandmother has told the neighbors, "I had a talk and a dream about your deceased husband"

so of course, the neighbors in this case wonder WHY the husband or wife who passed away does NOT go to their wife/husband

because it's NOT that easy. not everyone can be a vehicle or have the spiritual channel.


I relate to the water one too. That's really wild about you and your sister! Do you also find yourself physically sensitive, maybe in terms of sensing changes in weather or the environment?

My family has a weird intuitive, maybe psychic sense as well. Lots of weird stories, many witnessed so it's not just an exaggeration. I guess I inherited it. Not sure how this could be a chart related thing since there's many people involved.


what are some of the weird stories? care to share?

if not...that's cool. i just curious about the stories.

yes with me too, lots of people witnessed it... but in my case,

it was more or less, opening of the "veil" lol i know that sounds hokey and ridiculously harry potterish. LOL

but i dont know any other way to describe it.

i have the ability to open the veil to the other side.



oh and it's PURE scary as shit. i dont oftne want to do it, because it is incredibly frightening!!!. i even get scared at some moments in the past.

Not really an empath eventho i have some Water placements.

I'm trying to be one tho lol.


What signs and planets are they in? If you don't mind saying.


Venus and Mars in Pisces. And they're conjunct in 1st house.


Ooh interesting! Is that conflicting for you or no?


Should it be conflicting? Why?


Sorry misinterpreted, I'm still learning this stuff. I suppose it's actually supposed to be more harmonious than conflicting and charming?


Well the planets in my chart are mainly pairs so I guess it's more to harmonious.

Sun and Moon same sign same house.

Venus and Mars same sign same house (conjunct).

Jupiter and Uranus same sign same house (conjunct).

Saturn and Pluto neighboring sign neighboring house (conjunct).

Charming? I'm not so sure.


Nice! Oh idk that's just a possible trait when Mars and Venus conjuct in the first house. At least what I read. Oh but you're an Aqua right or Aquaish? Automatically charming lol

Also unrelated but in your description tag is Arlong Park in reference to the forum?


By the book yeah Venus and Mars conjunct in 1st house can be really charming.

Yes I'm an Aqua sun. What yours?

Not a reference to the forum 😄 it's one of my favorite places in One Piece and it sounds fun (Arlong Park) hence I put it.


Sag sun🔥

Oh cool, another One Piece fan! I liked that part of the story. I used to be on the forum a long time ago. Man, now that place was viscous, woof!


Lol are you still following One Piece?


I am behind sadly. I left off near the climax of the Dressrosa Arc. So it's been awhile but please don't spoil anything. Already had Google do that to me twice...fuck you Google!


Lollll yes you're far behind 😂

There's also another One Piece fan here. An Aries girl but I forgot her username.

Btw I didn't get get like half your quotes notification.


I know😥

Ah I need more people to talk about OP everyone's still on about Naruto lol

My notifications have been off for about 2 days now, I nono🤷

I only like Pain in Naruto.

But I admitted that Naruto's anime soundtracks are more superior than One Piece soundtracks.

I thought of this many times. And as much as I’d like to be, I’m not so certain I am, and it’s probably not so easy to be either I assume. I ran this through with someone on another forum. What exactly it meant and how do you know if you are one.They told me that I’m probably empathetic and probably not an “empath” I suppose there’s a difference.

I’m really not sure if I am. But Im not really sure of anything. Im always doubtful. But I think that Im possibly for sure more “compassionate” than probably an empath.

The thing is, from what I see what an empath means, it’s not something that’s very common. I see so many people claim to be empaths but I doubt that they are. It’s probably just as comman as being a sociopath/psychopath. And I dont think astrology can really show it. Maybe a chart that is more spiritually inclined? I don’t know.


In my opinion compassion and empathy is incredibly valuable, you should be proud of that.

I've heard it's uncommon too but from what my Aqua friend described to me last night it sounds correct. She's been stressed lately and she disclosed to me part of it's from negative energy at her work. And said that she absorbs it and gets in her head and it brings her down. I just never figured her for one, though she is more emotional and sensitive than she let's on. Also pretty sure I'm an empath or at least a hsp myself. So that's another interesting layer to our relationship lol

Maybe it has nothing to do with astrology I can't say it does. But I've noticed that people with a lot of water especially Pisces are very intuitive and emotionally sensitive. That's why I was asking about placements. At the same time psychopaths and sociopaths are really all about how the brain is wired so definitely not astrologically determined imo


What are your placements?

I definitely think it’s really good to be compassionate or empathetic. I think it’s so important. Although I wish I can feel everything more, so Im not really an empath unfortunately. Typically I can put myself in others shoes, some things come easier than others though but if I put my effort into it I can. I imagine. Is it something I feel in myself? No not really, I can distinguish my feelings from others. Actually there are times, more specifically times of nervousness I can sense nervousness around me and makes me nervous. Also people getting angry around me is overwhelming but I don’t actually get angry myself so In not absorbing their emotions. I think I am quite able to tell if someone is sad, botherd, etc the thing is I am not always observant of my surroundings and I am also able to separate my feelings from others. But even if people around me being nervous makes me nervous I don’t think that being an empath. I think that’s a normal emotional reaction.

I don’t know if what your friend describes is the same as being an empath though. I think people get stressed in situations from others around them it’s the norm I think.

Sociopaths/psychopaths definitely can be any sign cause maybe like you said, it is something hardwired from birth. But I believe an empath can be someone from any sign.


I'm a cold, cold, Sagittarius lol

Image Not Found

Here's my chart in case you wanted to know more than just signs.

Maybe your just normal, you could also just be highly sensitive. And if we go with the definition and experiences of other empaths she sounds like she fits. Either way I'm certainly not going to correct her on it, not sure how I could know for sure anyway. Idk if it's a spiritual, psychic, whatever, kind of thing but I do believe it's real and yeah I'd agree any Sun sign could be this way. Just wondered if some placements in some positions played a role.


I’m not saying you are cold. Please don’t misunderstand. I didn’t know you were a Sagittarius. It’s just people always want to say Aquarius are the cold ones, yet I have an Aquarius moon (supposedly the coldest moon sign) and yet I have met Sagittarius moons, Aries moons, Taurus moons, and even Cancer moons who I thought seemed even colder to me. But Aquarius is always the one being called these cold and emotionless monsters. That’s why I don’t like clump people up as one and say one is more caring than the other. Because that isn’t always true and I think it’s messed up for people to assume that you have no heart or empathy because the sign your moon is in. I have known nice people in every sign and I believe every sign has it’s good and bad apples. Every sign has its warm and cold people. Natal charts are quite complicated. Either that or astrology is not very accurate. I dont know.

Also from what I see on your chart you’re a Pisces Ascendent, so neptune is your chart ruler and you have mercury and venus conjunct neptune. That gives Pisces influence on you as well. Your sun conjunct moon is also a good placement. So maybe that’s what makes you feel the way you do.

I don’t know how you or your friend feel. All that matters is how you feel. If you feel you are both empaths, that’s good, I see it as a gift. If I were you I’d use it to the best of it’s ability to help others because I think an empath can do that better than anybody. I’ve never been sure it exists but I think it does. So not many people have it. I think it’s a blessing. It may be hard at times though, so it’s best to learn to not let everyone’s energy overwhelm you. There’s much to learn. The person I talked to on another thread said her friend couldn’t live in the normal everyday life. They had to live away fron people somewhere far in nature.


No please don't misunderstand me. I know you weren't implying I was cold I was just joking. Unfortunately tone is sometimes lost on the interwebz.

It's likely that Aquas get the most flack for being 'cold' but I've heard it said a lot about Sags too. I think it's all perspective more than an unempathetic person. Aquas get called cold because they don't always process emotions in a typical way, and they're very logical making them come off as detached. Sags get called cold cause we're rarely vulnerable and are brutal honestly spares neither friend or foe and we can be distant. So I tend to not take such claims too seriously. This is all in a general sense btw.

Yes, I am trying. I'm not sure if I have a choice at least if I want peace of mind. I just care too damn much. So I can't say I don't have selfish motivation. But I want to make a positive difference in the world before I die. I don't blame that person's friend, it's like constant overstimulation. Can be very overwhelming and exhausting.


I dont quite understand what people mean by Aquas don’t process emotions like a typical person? I kind of find these things said about Aquarius hurtful because it kind of makes me feel alienated and dehumanized, as I have quite strong Aqua placements. Like I start wonder do I not feel emotions like a normal person? And I start to feel bad and awful about myself. As it appears not too many aqua moons worry about being this way, Im sure there are other Aqua moons/placements such as myself who are just like me. Although I don’t see myself processing my emotions logical at all. And I never seen myself as emotionally unavailable. However people constantly saying Aquarius feel nothing, or are super detached doesn’t help me to not second guess myself. And as it is I already have doubting disease. Like what is “cold” exactly to people? Not outwardly showing emotions? Because I don’t see how how much you express emotions shows how empathetic or compassionate you are. I know many people who are super showy with emotions but are mean people.

Not sure on moons but I've heard Aqua suns say they worry they don't feel emotions like "normal" people. So it's not just you. Ah but you're a Pisces sun, imo that's a strong placement. And that's why it's good to keep in mind generalizations.

And I'm sorry it's hurtful. But no need to worry or doubt. I'm sure your emotions are fine, healthy, and likely deep. But people are different and they react differently. That's ok. Some people when they have strong feelings like to pour them out in that instant, completely unfiltered. Maybe they surround themselves with others and openly emote. Some people may internalize and do activities like working out, painting, going for a walk until they are calm again. And some people may take a more logical approach and try to figure out how to solve their problems, relying on mental strength. I think the last one can be similar to how some Aquas deal with emotions. However just because they take this approach doesn't mean they don't feel just as strongly as a person who will express intense feelings outwardly.

Try to ease your doubts. You're are your own individual. You may not be normal but who wants to be that, normal people rarely do anything extraordinary. You are different but you're also human. Just be confident in that, and yourself, and you'll be fine!

i've never been emotionally unavaiable either.

and i'm married, happily. My husband does adore me. (and of course i adore him)

Also my last ex, but my first two ex's ...ehhhhhh ;p pfft. lessons learned lol



i think in your case, its hard because you are sheltered more. You dont really have many options to meet men who will "test" to see your emotional availability.

you can really only test it when you are with someone long term...and with your loved ones.

and i'm sure you are very loving and kind to your own family (like parents and brothers /sisters, cousins) and even close friends.



correct me if i'm wrong..but are you from a culture that also believes in arranged marriages?

if so, that is cool, i hope you meet some good men out there. whether your parents find a good match for u, or if you happen to stumble upon some men who will pursue you. =d
