I agree with Branh, that stuff above is no so black and white, people would love to believe that its that simple, it makes life seem a little less complicated, the truth is that it is complicated, very complicated.
Moloko, maybe tauruschic posted the above for fun, as in a joke? If you guys can't take humour, then you have serious problems.. Branh, I use to judge people like you as well until I found that it got me no where. It's better to accept people for who they are instead of being bitter and angry all the time.
Kupo, yeah i understand that the post was just for fun, was just agreeing with a point that Branh made aswell, i can take humour, i enjoy a good laugh, was just giving an opinion.
Don't take things so seriously branh, people aren't stupid. We all know that stuff is for fun. Actually I think it's just pretty basic stuff 'the devils in the details'
But hey how bout YOU guys do some pretty basic translations of your own... we'd like to hear that 🙂
Attention ALL Females! Let's post "What we REALLY are saying" to guys.
When I tell a guy that I just want to be "friends" what I am really saying to him is...I am not interested in developing a romantic relationship with him and I mean it!
Funny thing is, when I tell a guy this he doesn't believe me and will try to change my mind and then he is left with realizing - she means what she says!
What do you mean for a taurus branh? 😛 what has been your experience with taurus? I thought we were all pleasant 🙂 We're you being sarcastic? Hey I bet that 'i' after the period is bugging you, I'm surprised you haven't attempted at correcting it ... just teasing.
Well I guessed you were a virgo because virgos tend to get too serious about certain things they find important and will not let it go without analyzing it. My mother is a virgo and wow she can be a total pain in the arssse... no offense I love the woman. My best friend in h.s. also was a virgo and I've met quite a few. Actually when I try to guess what sign a person is... virgo is the easiest to spot, I'm always on target 🙂 The reason why the stars say virgo n taurus are compatible must be quite obvious because us bulls are so very patient and tolerant and still love ppl with all their flaws... hmmm or maybe it's not true... b/c the question is...?? will virgo tolerate us? 😛 Whatever I'll stop thinking bout it. Thanx for the compliment 🙂
"When I tell a guy that I just want to be "friends" what I am really saying to him is...I am not interested in developing a romantic relationship with him and I mean it!"
Hey men did you pay attention to that? If there is one thing that we mean it is this 🙂 We take rejecting you very seriously lol no it's not funny but ummm it's true. No woman leads on any man who she really doesn't want a relationship with, unless she's using you or she's some type of woman that you really shouldn't be with anyway.
Want something simple? ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS.
Why can't people just be straightforward? you know what really interferes with communication? pride, too much pride to really express what is truly going on inside your little hearts for fear of being taken advantage of, for fear of being heart broken, laughed at, but I say so what? so what if that happens? what is the big deal with admitting that one is only human and has emotions. Best advice is to get rid of that game playing mentality people have these days and if you're not met with the same simple straightforwardness then you should look elsewhere. Hmmm what was the topic again?
I am the reserved type, I keep to my business. I'm often asked why I am so serious but once they get to know me they realize that I am quite easy-going. Like for example some guy asked me why I never smile and I replied 'oh i'm not? i thought i was' and i started laughing and he replied that I should smile more often cuz I always look mad. I guess maybe it's just our demeanor. But you are right that when we get mad all hell breaks loose, it's not even anger, it's rage. I've blown up a couple of times, but it's only when I feel like I've really been trespassed and taken advantage of, we tend to bottle things up.
Well you're right about the compability thing because I've never dated a virgo, eh don't know what it is. But seriously brahn... leo? eeeks well perhaps the leo men are different from the leo women. Ay caramba! I cannot stand those fellas 😛 No offense but they demand too much attention and if you don't provide... oooh watch them pout and boohoo, there may be a few to despise me 🙂 So sorry I guess I like grounded men.
Im seriously thinking about getting rid of all this astrology belief in my life, seems many people take it so very seriously, and at the moment myself included, im getting to the point where im analizing everything, trying to live a life without mistakes, not good and not realistic, if i carry on i wont enjoy life to the full, im not disregarding astrology or knocking it, just having a reality check, i think im waking up, yeah it seems so.
Brahn it sounds like you don't believe that men and women can be strictly friends? Well personally, I have a lot of guy friends and I love to hang out with guys more than I do with girls. Guys are uncomplicated, no drama/rumors, no crap I don't want to know about, they're always up for something fun and have less fear, simple. I know what you're talking about when you say that some female friends lead men on but you can tell which relationships these are. For example male friends that I know have some sort of interest in me I will not go out with or hang out with unless it is with more friends, I'll try to ask them about their dates and talk about my own... stuff like that. One of my best friends used to be a guy in h.s. and we'd spent ours talking about our problems or giving advice, he introduced me to a friend of his who I dated and I'd go to him to ask him what he liked and what not or just for advice. You learn a lot from male friends and they're very protective of you too. When we go out they'll sometimes pick me up or I'll pick them up, sometimes they'll pay for me and sometimes I'll pay for them, it's very strictly friends. My boyfriend doesn't mind me having guy friends either, I'll invite them if we're hanging out and it's all cool.
Moloko are you having a crisis? 😛 j/k A life without mistakes? That's like worrying about being worried. I get you though. My only thought on that is that 'happiness is in your willingness and not on your circumstances' it's something to that effect, read it somewhere but believe in it 100%
Guys can actually be just the same as women, sometimes worse, drama and rumours come with them too, over the years ive heard stuff from other mens mouths that would make you want to vomit, and thats seconds after you have walked away from the group of blokes who were just laughing and joking with you, a lot of guys will act as you friend and they come across all nice and helpful but many times theres more behind thier kindness, im not saying thier all that way, some guys will be protective of you because they dont want anyone else too close.
Am i having a crisis, no tauruschic, i didnt say i was unhappy, only concerned about my recent over the top analizing everything because of the stars, that seems to be getting to serious and losing its entertainment value.

Everyone says cancers are moody and I find this to be true. I'm wondering if it's true for everyone else? I go a little krazy sometimes, like I'll be very meloncholy one moment thinking about something, then as I'm walking down the street the next minute

I've found that sometimes its pretty difficult to express what i'm feeling verbaly. Its an on and off thing. Stronger feelings require me to stop and think of a way to express them. Is this a major pain for anyone else? Anyone at all.
