Libra Sun/Virgo Moon and I've been seeing a Cancer Sun/Sag Moon guy for about 3 weeks. He's very sweet and affectionate. He loves to cuddle. He says that I'm perfect, that he likes me because he can have a conversation with me, he misses me, etc.

Problem is, he works late hours and sleeps all day. When he is up during the day, all we do is watch TV. I'm not looking to paint the town all the time, but due to my limited time off (I have a kid) I really don't want to spend it sleeping and watching TV. I feel like I've stepped into a 5 year relationship vs a brand new one.

My ex knows his ex and her only complaint was that he is hard to get to do things. Is this a Cancer trait? Also, even though he told me he'd love to spend all day with me this past Sun, he barely spoke to me. It was weird.

I've heard Cancer/Libra is a no go. Thoughts?

I don't think this is so much a sun sign thing as a guy who co-owns a bar (probably closing things down and not getting to bed until 3 am), drinks, and smokes weed.
May be a nice guy, but aside from the drink and weed, he may not always have the energy. And the drinking and weed don't help.
I know this can be a tough question for a Libra, but what are you looking for out of this?

Haha! Well, I've dated a lot of really douchy guys and he's the first one that seems to be genuinely decent. Good values, treats me well, etc. I have a 5 year old, and while he loves kids (don't worry, he hasn't met mine) I can't imagine a life with a guy who doesn't leave his house and smokes and drinks all day.

True. I also found out tonight from my ex, who knows his ex, that he's been depressed for awhile. I really like him and hate that he's in this place, but I can't save him.

Wow, this sounds like what I went through with my ex for 4 years...it really just became too much for my wondering soul. I craved adventure and he didn't nor could understand it. He was content with just smoking and drinking at home. I would say "leave it"

And he smokes weed and drinks, lol. He co-owns a bar.

His Mars is in Cancer.
Omg this right here!!! My ex smoked and drank a lot which demotivated him to do anything outside the circumference of his parents house... Yeah he lived with his folks at 32 years old :/

Yikes!!! How did you put up with it and how did you break it off?

Maybe you should talk to him about it.
Not in an accusatory way, or in a "my needs" way, but let him know the things you like about him but also balance it with his "tendencies" to stay home, etc. Frame it as "I'd like to [enter activity here} but we never seem to have an opportunity--that sort of thing.
And let him talk.

You should leave it alone!

Can you elaborate?
You're too different! Even with his sag moon. Crabs are homebodies until we don't want to be homebodies usually during vacation we got nuts


You're incompatible

Not necessarily. Yeah, Crabs like having their retreat, but what the OP is describing is something different that isn't necessarily astro related.

Why ? Why bother to change his essence to make this person happy?

I wouldn't do it...

Not to say don't like going out but she's never going to be satisfied

Libras love dinners and people and shopping


Yikes

Its not about changing him. She already said he expressed an interest in doing this or that. I'm not sure its necessarily idle chatter, he needs a nudge.

Yes. Talk about all of it. Are you willing to be there? For him? After a long night of trying to make a dream work? If so work it out.

It can work it will just be difficult. Aries with Libra moon dated Cancer with Taurus moon for 2 years.

Well I broke up with him about 3 times for short periods when I couldn't take it anymore. I even convinced myself that having a guy friend to do fun things with was ok even though the guy wanted more... Sigh...I had to ween myself from him starting mentally, physically, emotionally.

It's been about year and a half and I still miss him 😢 Best to walk away now if this is who he is... But it could just be his lifestyle so you gotta find out. Best of luck girl!

Yeah, she needs to feel him out.
If all he does is talk in circles, she's got her answer.
