Hi THISCHICISBAD. I just read your msg. I'm a CANCER, too. My hubby is a LEO. We are marryed for 7 years now and we are going to divorce. HE IS THE MOST INSENSITIVE MALE I'VE EVER MET. If you can put up with that... good luck.
It took him two years to make me say YES, after that he became another person.

i dont know..if i can work dandy with a sagittarius, then i dont see how this cant work. But then again..maybe it's because i'm born on a cusp, hm, who knows.

I personally don't know, because I used to be absolutely in love with a cancer, until I decided he was a total loser... He was a great guy, just didn't aspire to any sort of greatness besides building a life and family by staying in the same town his entire life. For me... The doors always gotta be open...

Sigh what makes a loser is not being honest and coming out with his real feelings and just waiting for people to guess...

The doors must be open to spontenaity... To potential... He was the kind of person who would aim low so he wouldn't fail... I'm the kinda person who aims way to high so if I fall I still wind up higher than I would if I would have just aimed at an average hight... Hmmm... And he was I think too set on the "traditional" relationship roles... You know the wife stays home and cooks kinda thing... Oh well...

About the domestic thing.. It does work for some, but I feel the same. It's not the extra income, though of course it helps.. but I'd rather both partners able to get out the house, etc. I agree. Re: the signs: The people I've run into are "single" example zodiacs.. I don't have a plural number of signs to compare, yet. I don't think I know 12 different signs that I actually interact with.

Do you fall in that catagory of wanting attention "more so".. aka.. the Leo thing.. or is that over stated? And who's the longest sign or person.. (either equally good) that you've been with? Or is this too deep here?

I really never stayed in a relationship very long, and I'm the one who usually does the breaking up... And the attention thing, yes I like it, but I'm normally used to not getting it, so I'm usually surpised and delighted with just a little bit... I'd say I've been with a Pisces the longest (six months or so)... Although, like I said, that Cancer I'd really would have said I was in love with for like three years, although I was never actually "with" him officially.

Mine longest was the Cancer I mentioned, a long time ago. I think school at the time had a big impact.. There was alot in common at the time. Afterwards, it got exceedingly harder to have a place to feel as comfortable and as receptive for interaction. The frozen food isle.. does not work.. (lol. at least for me..)

So.. stepping out farther.. You feel it's easier to be a live in? or maintain separate places? For example, my Aries friend is *firm* about her wishing to maintain her own place.. supposedly even after marriage. Explaining finances to her isn't making a big impression. I've the feeling, at the very least, she'll have separate bedrooms. (That or.. stills needs work in the Me/You/Us department.. )

Well... I have to say that it really depends on the person... I personally really like my own space... And unless I REALLY loved the person, I don't think I could stand living with him... Actually, scratch that, He probably couldn't stand living with me unless he REALLY loved me... I can be VERY picky about certain appearances, organization, decoration and such... After a while of living with me, he may wish to kill me... That can be bad for a relationship. However, if I was going to actually Marry the person, I'd probably live with him... And probably live with him first before I married him just to make sure we wouldn't drive eachother insane... But I'd still like to keep my own place... You know... Just in case... Maybe rent it out and make an income off of it or something...

You know, that could be what's she's thinking.. (the just in case..) It is a shame that most often the tastes and living patterns of two people are very different. I went through that. I could concede the decor thing because it wasn't *that* critical.. but you do still feel a loss at not having your idea of expression, about you. (even a compromise isn't that fufilling at that point.)

Yeah... It's unfortunate... I know, if self expression is repressed it can lead to short temperedness or to severe depression, which is also a not good thing for a relationship.

Well espernaut.. the feeling i get about the leo? he seems pretty cool, funny. But it's just friendship to me. He says he thinks i'm 'smart', but that's as far as the comment went about me, but he keeps coming back to me and it seems like he tries to impress me, but maybe he just likes talking about himself har har. I dont know why, but i attract fire and air signs mostly, right now i have this aquarius guy who said that he would 'love' to fall in love with me. And my friend who's a gemini, apparently fell in love with me some time in the past...and yada yada ya. The only earth sign that ive attracted so far is a virgo, he didnt like the fact that im hard to reach, so he moved on. Ah well. I'd never leave my saggy anyway.
