Question for Libra's

Although I've been reading and thoroughly enjoying all the posts, I'm not a Libra, but a Gemini. What's weird is that I always manage to fall for Libra's since they are so irresistibly charming! But lately, I've become emotionally involved with one that has me totally baffled.

Through a quirk of fate, I met this man through the internet and we became fast friends. It's at the point that we would like to meet face to face, but I just can't go through with it until his divorce has been finalized. So, our relationship continues to exist behind the monitor screen.

My question is, are most Libs moody?

The man in question is happy, witty, intelligent & deliciously romantic one minute...then, out of the blue, he hits rock bottom and is so inconsolably depressed that it frightens me.

I couldn't ask for a better friend. I adore his magnetic persona! But his perplexing sudden, drastic personality swings are driving me crazy!!

My question is, do most Libra's resort to this kind of irrational behavior when confronted with problems, or does this guy have something weird going on that isn't a prevalent Libran trait?

Any comments from other Libra's will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance for the feedback.

Thanks Mandy for the input. I sincerely appreciate it...yet have more questions for you, if you don't mind...

How long do these moods usually last? Do you just get depressed for no reason at all? Do you have any helpful hints as to what another person can do to shorten these spells of deep despair? Is their any particular thing that seems to snap you out of your gloomy frame of mind or do they just have to run their course?

I do hope I'm not getting too personal; I'm just trying so hard to understand the Libra personality.

This man is intriguing... truly a wonderfully entertaining creature, full of wit & intelligence and people are drawn to him like a magnet when he's in "normal" mode. His freinds tell me he's in high demand at parties and people seek him out to unburden their problems because he listens, cares & gives great advice & encouragement. BUT when the Jekyl/Hyde pendulum begins to turn the tides, he wants to be alone to brood...sometimes for weeks.

These mood swings do make him quite a challenge to get to know as I'm always wondering if I did or said something to hurt or offend him (which could be a definite possibility since I'm a Gemini, a Psychology major, highly opinionated and intellectually oriented!) It kind of gets irritating feeling like I'm walking on thin ice around him.

I'm beginning to wonder if I'm just wasting my time with this man. If I didn't know better, I'd swear he was a temperamental Cancer! LOL! (No offense Cancer's! I admire you, too. My best friend is a Cancer!) I'd give up on him but he's just too damn sexy to let go without a fight!

Hi Loveslibras,

Well where to start.. I went through a devastating divorce and I completely withdrew. When I was with friends or at work I was my great happy self. When I went home I just wanted the world to stop. That went on for about a year. Then I started feeling like I was wasting precious time on the past. I realized I could not change anything that had happened, but I could change being a sad Libra. And so I did! That was seven years ago.

I don't know if your Libra just started the divorce process, but I can bet that he might be trying to balance his scales. We do go to the depths and get to the highs if life has been unfair. If he is not normally a manic/depressive type he should come out of it and it is worth the wait.

My suggestion is don't walk on thin ice around him, be yourself and don't be afraid to ask him question directly about what he is thinking or going through. Libras like to be understood and that doesn't happen easily! You can do it!

Take care,

Linda

We can be moody, but it's a shallow form of moodiness, just like all our other emotions, lol! Well, that's what the books say anyway... No, seriously, i can be moody, but it's more of a 'mood' thing rather than an 'emotional' thing. Yes, i guess our moods can change like the wind, but like the wind, they can change back too. If things are out of balance in our lives, that's when we are most likely to swing back and forth.
