So to be considered their gf/bf — not just some fling - like be introduced to friends, family, peers etc. you??d have to be something pretty special right? at least to them. Unlike other signs, not mentioning any names aquarius

Esssspecially Virgo, for a Virgo man to think you're special??_well, then you're pretty damn amazing😄

Such an ego boost to date one😛

What are your opinions?

If I introduced a man to friends and family he'd be simply spectacular in my eyes. One does not get a *free pass* into the inner sanctum unless you're treasured and thought highly of. Why would I introduce someone not worth their salt to the people I hold in highest regard? I would not is the answer.

My inner rectum!!

As far as Virgos I disagree; high standards kinda suggest we only go for women who are somewhat "above the norm" and thats not necessarily true, what we do have is "classic standards" which in these times seem to be disappearing, all we ask for is a woman with a sensible head on her shoulders but who can also be emotional, a woman who's nice to look at and knows what she wants.

Thats not too much to ask!

Well I think id like to comment on this. I am not an earth sign but both my venus/mars are in Taurus. For you to meet my family it's a big deal. Given that in the past some of my exes have met them and it didn't work out puts the spotlight on me and makes me look bad that it in fact never worked out with that person. I like to keep my family and their issues private until we are REALLY involved. My mother is a Taurus and my sister is a Cancer. So those two they have opinions and they talk about it to each other. My step dad is a Leo and he could care less. But what my mom thinks is important. She can spot a bum a mile away.

The standard checklist must be completed before there is even a serious thought about letting them anywhere near my inner circle, or private residents. I mean you gotta protect yourself.

I think this goes for most people though, right?

mars in taurus, virgo rising. if i bring you around my family we might as well get hitched.

so far, no-one's come close. but that's about to change 😉

i don't. most of my friends introduce a new guy to the family with no qualms. usually a few weeks in, a few times by the second date. however, my taurus friend takes her sweet time with the meet and greet. same goes for my taurus sis.

i'm the late bloomer of the group, no-one's met ma yet. *puts nose in the air* that's a privilege that must be earned 😛

I honestly don't think Capricorns put as much thought into it, at-least I don't. Meeting the family is no big deal, and means nothing good or bad, but hey, I'm from Texas and my family is pretty friendly so we welcome everyone with open arms lol...

But my Cap friend is like this too. It's nothing special to him if he brings you by his parents house and let you meet them. He might won't introduce you as his gf, but he'll still swing you by there.

I guess I've never been one to think about "when" I introduce someone, if we're headed out and I needed to swing by my parents (or other family) I probably would just introduce ya for the heck of it to be polite. I wouldn't go out of my way. But, the flip side, when others introduce me to those close to them, I think it's more meaningful.

Side note: I live 5,000 miles from my family, so we're not just swinging by, so my reference point is when I was younger... at this point, I don't tell my family about anyone unless I think it's someone worth telling them about.
