Hope this is not a redundant topic or anything, and I rarely resort to astrology for this advice but I'd be curious to know what people think.

Some background:

I've known this girl at work for about a year now who I think is in a long distance relationship that doesn't quite seem like it's functioning. I've gotten clues from her about it but she always seems to hesitate to state that explicitly.
We have gotten really close over a period of several months and we spend a lot of time together at and outside of work. People at work seem to be getting the vibe that we're dating. It's really obvious. People in public think we're a couple. We get along real well, have the most profound and genuine conversations about everything, make each other laugh, help and support each other. It really is all there; I almost can't believe it. I also get a vibe from her that she may have mutual feelings but is too hesitant to admit it or is being indecisive. I pride myself in being able to intuitively feel these things about people.
This is the first time that I've really put a bend on a "friends first" idea with someone because I definitely love her now more than a friend so I don't wanna ruin it by rushing into expressing it to her. I've done it before in the past and don't wanna make the same mistake with her. It's getting to the point where I feel dishonest to myself and her about not letting her know. My only concern is that I will scare her away and essentially minimize my chances of being with her, even as a friend which she is definitely a great one. My question is this: should I tell her how I exactly feel (which I think may overwhelm her because I'm really straight and deep when it comes to expressing my affection to someone - I don't kinda sorta do it) or should I tone it down and make it sound a little subtle? I feel like the latter will come out as fake although the former may be a little too intense for her to handle. I know that she enjoys hearing me talk because I know how to speak my mind creatively and deeply at the same time. I wanna tell her that I love her in the same fashion. I honestly fell in love her the second I saw her. I remember everything about that encounter as I interrupted myself while talking to someone as I noticed her. I remember exactly what she wore that day too.

The whole situation is particularly unique because of her long distance relationship which is something that seems rather unfulfilling for her. I don't wanna just selfishly tell her that I love her and make it one sided. I wanna let her know that I care about what she will "gain" from this potential relationship individually and collectively as a couple. Thoughts? I'm a Scorpio man. Thanks a lot!

aleckrs, you are not in an official relationship and she is still involved with someone else. Don't assume anything.. if she is in it she still has some sort of attachment on that end. As you both work together, I don't think its wise to let her know verbally how you feel, at least not yet. I would take KsamCancers advice and keep showing it, keep getting closer as you see fit.

I don't know if you have a relationshipo goal but perhaps you should keep moving forward with her. If you verbally tell her now it could get awkward and if the timing is off you run the risk of losing her for good.

For your verbal announcement of love, I would wait until you've been intimate together either right afterwards while you are holding her or the next time you see her doing something romantic together and the dopamine is overflowing.

Just show her you love her and she'll realize her feelings as well.

This may be helpful:

Our Moon is in Libra, our Pluto is in Scorpio, and we have a bunch of Capricorns all around including both her Venus and Mars. Mine are in Scorpio and Gemini, respectively.

so, you're both libra moons. and you're a gemini mars?

well, your gemiini mars is very vocal, or is that mercury. Anyway, just be yourself and tell her.

probably since you're both libra moons, you're both hesitating and weighing stuff about the relationship.

& i agree with KSam

no, no Ksamcancer said show her, he never said tell her. I agree with this

Its best to wait until the right time where she is receptive and not on the spot, trust me and everyone else above.

Her feelings for you will probably deepen after you are intimate and she'll connect you with the good feelings if its the right timing of intimacy (including sex, snuggling in bed, nighttime banter in bed) and/or romance (sunset, romantic dinner, on the beach, in nature etc.) just make sure its AFTER you are intimate even better the 2nd time, not the first. That way you both know for sure there is direction.

My virgo is in overdrive!

With her possibly being involved with someone makes this even more difficult than just working with her.

You need to make sure it won't effect the working environment in a negative light. Not really a good idea to mix work and pleasure, but it works for some people.

Also i am not speaking for all Aquas, but if you know i'm invovled with someone and attempt to actively pursue me- it may not be taken positively . When I am committed to someone, I am all in. Again this is for me, i am not speaking for other Aquas.

Have you asked her if shes involved with someone?

uhhhh capricorn personal planets doesn't waste time with people they are not interested in. unless she is looking for career moves and moving her way up, then it's platonic. Capricorn is the sign of "I USE".....it could be positive or negative.

i have NO idea about the libra moon for her though. That could thow in a monkey wrench. There's alot of ladies here with LIbra moons i notice, maybe they can chime in and help/advise this guy.

for the feedback you guys!

Posted by starwars
have you dropped any hints before or done something that shows that you like her? -if yes what was it and what was her reaction?
I definitely have but not in a forward or verbal kind of way. She can clearly tell that I care about her more so than anybody, at least in our work / friend circle. I can also gauge this from a few experiences we've had where she needed someone to be there for her. Example: one time she almost got hit by a car soon after we said bye to each other, and I was the first person that she called to tell her about this, all while she unconsciously said that she didn't know why she wanted to let me know first. There have been other experiences where she'd rely on me more than anybody else. I get the feeling that she trusts me a lot because she doesn't quite open up to people as much as she does when we're together. It is also the case when I needed to rely on someone. I've had a few experiences where I was "in trouble", and she would genuinely care and check up on me -- something I never see her do with anybody that I know.

As an Aqua dominant, if it matters.. Tiz is right on the money

Show it - her reaction will tell you everything you need to know

I guess I have been showing it except I never try to go overboard as I would do with someone if we were in an actual relationship. I may be confused as to what the definition of showing love to someone like her would be. I'm not gonna straight up bring her flowers or anything because that would be a little too much. Can you think of some examples where that would fit into your definition of showing love to an Aquarius woman? I bet those examples may overlap with what I have already done, but I can't be sure.

I don't think working in the same environment would affect this as we don't work together normally and are not restricted to being together all the time. I just don't believe how strong her current relationship really is based on how she communicates to me about it. I honestly only hear about her relationship through other people. When I'm with her, she very rarely mentions anything about it -- as if her guy doesn't exist. The only time she brought him up when we're out and she said that "her boyfriend will be in town for a while, but ummm... he's so busy, and...." she couldn't finish her sentence with a distressed and sad look, and finished it with a vague "I don't know...". It's as if she wanted to complain that they don't spend time together, possibly due to his unavailability. I didn't want to be nosy and ask anything about it as I respect her private life. But I got a hint that their relationship isn't quite as fulfilling as she wants to be. That is the only reason why I still want to see if we can make it work. If she ever gave me a clear indication that their relationship is solid, I would simply hault my "pursuit" if you will and leave her alone and be happy with the fact that she's happy. It doesn't seem that way though, and I want to offer her something that her relationship currently lacks.

We'll wait for the next thread from you where your Stinger is out because a cheater, cheated on you ... and you'll be all crying and shit saying you never saw it coming.

Look how all the women are fawning over a man who is pursuing a taken woman .... so now you all know. Women may say from their forked tongues that they don't like cheaters ... but, look here ... they are all telling this man that it's cute, and to keep pursing a woman who isn't available.


So, the jury came back in ... none of you women actually hold yourselves to the standards you proclaim.

this man is a cheater, intentionally moving in on another man's territory the moment he sensed she was vulnerable .... and you all are cheering him on.

humpf.

i hate men who go after women when they are VULNERABLE.

it just means that's the only way they can get a woman. CHEAP. waiting till the other is single OR when the other is having big problems with the partner, ect. swwooping in for the kill.

i dont know if it's their libra moons going to and fro to and fro like a pendulum and cán't make up their minds. INDECISIVE.

but they deserve eachother.

let them be so they can take care of the "other".

Work and relationships can lead to disaster is all i am saying. You do you..

as for the other person she is with/involved with- you have no idea what is really going on between them. she speaks to you about it, but it sounds limited on what she tells you.

Again, i would not do anything until whatever that is between them has played out. There is a thing called respect and pursing someone when they are invovled IMO, isn't respectful of anyone. I know some believe no ring= free to do whatever. but that is not everyone. She might be one that might be offended if you do pursue. Tread carefully.

Jeez. I love those big words. That's quite an insightful point you got there; however, I don't think it applies here to be honest. You make me look like I'm going after an intoxciated girl who's running on fumes. I respect her a lot and seeing her happy (regardless of who's she's with) makes me happy. The only reason that I'm considering to take it a step further is because I simply get a vibe that there's a tremendous sense of mutual affection between us that doesn't seem to radiate in the same way with her current relationship. The last thing I'd wanna do is to wreck a relationship.

Also a good point but I'm not trying to take advantage of the situation. That just simply goes against what I believe in. If I was in a long distance relationship with someone, I would be alarmed if somebody out there was grinding it out trying to steal my girlfriend. That is definitely not the only way I wanna "get" a woman. I don't think of her as a woman, I think of her as the woman. If I wanted to "get" a woman as some kind of prey, I'd had done already. This is beyond a typical physical attraction. I love this girl as a person and not just someone to be in a relationship with. But I guess you're right about being indecisive. We both like to weigh everything a little too much. Thanks for the input!
