Just a thought. I feel like the famous Leo's I know kinda pick the wrong men. Bad boy types or men who just don't treat them right. I notice a trend with myself as well.

What do you guy think? Coincidence or something in the stars that makes us this way?

Lionesses need a man who won't allow them to "devour" them? Not literally anyway - lol

I was pretty terrible at picking for an embarrassingly long time, and there were 2 big reasons why:

1) I wasn't picking men who were my equals, but boys that I thought COULD be. Focused on the potential rather than the reality. That'll always come back to bite you.

2) I didn't have the self-respect, self-worth or self-esteem to set boundaries and almost always accepted being treated far worse than I deserved. Being riddled with insecurities ends up attracting its own brand of special treetrunked snowflakes.

I'm Leo venus and I tend to pick guys who put me on a pedestal only for them to turn around and feel that they can never make me happy :/

I agree. It's like they consciously give up.

I've had only two boyfriends, so I haven't experienced the "unluckiness" in love. Leaving my last ex, it really reinforced that I CAN NOT date guys my age. I'm upfront and tell others what I expect, but they run or try to take me on and they find that they can't follow through.

Like, peace. Don't waste my time
