marring a virgo!! 😄 he is also person who wants his own space and that's perfect for me.
with anyone who's more attached I would run already..I thought it's jut mine problem and now I see other cancers have it to

if your partner is like that just talk to him and explain thats your nature you need space to breathe and charge your batteries, that it's not about him..etc
do you have some personal activities where you can be alone (I paint, play piano, read a lot, enjoy to walk alone)

I dated a virgo for a year but he became very clingy and needy. He was fine at first

I am a Pisces and I need a LOT of space..so that might work..dating a cancer now who is worried about this exact thing if we move in together....I'm not worried..but, any advice y'all to ease his mind?

Yo, what you crabs crying about now? I work 40 hours a week, am in a second master's degree program full time, work on a research project for my school, answer the calls at the local crisis center and serve in the military reserves.

So yes, get a damn life and quit crying about being too busy for your man.

Drama queen! 😉 is that all you do? Haha

Not about being too busy, it's about space.

If he does seem distant then give him his space even if it's something as simple as him spending the evening in another room reading a book by himself.

Cool thanks!
