So Mr. Leo and I are great together, and I mean great....most of the time. It is when those cat fights come up and we, well mainly him is posturing his dominance. (yes I asked for a strong man and I got one, and wouldn't trade it for the world) I don't back down, but I try to pull him back and remind him it is not about who is in the lead (because I will never follow) but us working beside each other to come up with the best solution possible. We do have very very similar charts, so that causes issues with our fire and fixed signs. The Leo men I have dealt with in the past have always been submissively.

So Leo men...how do I deal with you dominate selves coming from another dominate leo female. I don't want to see us on the 6pm news. 😉

First off, never said he was NOT the man. And at least this Leo Man CAN'T stand a submissive female. He likes a woman who knows how to take charge and when to lead....must be a leo thing. I can't stand a submissive male who does not know how to lead. So don't make assumptions I am trying to over power my beautiful Leo man....wait I actually have a Leo man who WANTS me. It is about standing side by side. And if you knew anything about the Leo, whether Leo females or Leo males...we NEVER stand behind. We will always stand by your side.

Real opinions please. Drops mike and walks away....

I guess you told me huh? NOT!!! Any hoo, at the end of the day, man and woman was not created equal, therefore, you do not stand side by side with your man, if he is to lead..Men are dominate, women should not be...That is the problem with women today...And for that snide comment about me taming a Leo man......Chick, I bet that I can get yours if I wanted...Try that on for size. You say a Leo may not be for me, maybe you are right, but that do not stop them from running after me...

Is he also Aries moon? I think my moon trine mars that would make me concede arguments because I know I will get him another time.

It is about how great you are together though.



He is a Sag Moon.

His and my chart.

We are great together. Very good together and yes that is what counts. Just trying to get an appropriate handle of two dominate personalities, so when situation or disagreements do arise, it is a productive and communicative with a resolution. Does that make sense?

*Picks up mike, dusts it off, and hands it back to the Lioness* "Your turn"...



Really does not matter what you say. After all you are trying to be with someone who is IN a relationship...and you call yourself a woman? A real woman will let the man handle his business or move the fuck on because he isn't worth her and will have the grace to be with someone who does want her and HER ALONE. You can talk smack all you want about my man wanting you...just shows your low self esteem and I have no reason to answer that. I KNOW where my man stands and who he wants to be with....moving on.

How do you know that he is in a relationship? Do you know him personally? I think not...Furthermore, I left his behind alone for awhile, and now HE is the one begging me to spend time with him... Girlfriend,No... Baby mother, yes... And I know for certain that they are not together....Thank you very much...So the next time that you want to try and throw jabs, know what you are talking about...Gather Facts!!!

I am not going to entertain you anymore. I am asking for serious inquires. I can go through posts where you stated he was with baby moms....and if correct living..really doesn't matter. Let him chase you. If you were strong enough you will let a real man come and be with you....dismissed and moving on. LOL..key word. left his behind alone for awhile....not completely alone. WEAK. Woman up. That man would not be worth my time. I am worth more than the little scraps he is giving out.

TheLioness be careful, tread carefully because eventually your Leo will tire of battling for the lead.

Pick and choose your fights carefully. Eventually the battle of wills will turn into an all out Mexican stand off and you do not want that if you truly desire the relationship to sustain itself.

I'm not advising you to completely concede to your Leo but know when to hold em and fold em, everything does not have to be a battle of whose will is stronger or whose the stronger leader, to compete with your man can actually turn his attraction down a few notches and he'll start treating you like a friend/guy friend--of course this usually happens when the honeymoon is over and he questions if you're compatible with one another, the attraction you both have for one another can only go so far, if the compatibility is off eventually your Leo will seek new territory.

Just a reminder to not be too tit for tat because although he may not show it, he can begin to feel emasculated by your behavior and roam off and then you'll be posting a thread about why he's disappeared or doesn't seem too interested anymore.

The Lioness knows when she is losing...Stay in your lane chick!!! I was giving you advice, I did not come in here to throw jabs, but you want to go there, and now bow out...

I agree. I do not full engage all the time. And honestly, it is not often. I do know for him is it is a form of defense from seeing how he is and has been treated by family etc. I gauge his reaction and will just keep my mouth shut until I know he is in a more calm and communicative manner. I back off more than he does and if it is important, circle around another time.

No, no posting on roaming, disappearing, or not being interested... 😉 I just say next. 🙂

Lioness, i thought you were dating a Cancer sun male? 😕 Or was that over? maybe he was a cusper.



I was. I ended it back in December. He had too many personal issue he needed to work through and I couldn't help him with those. Only he could change himself. He was a good guy and I hope he does work through them and find the happiness he deserves.

I guess it is more me trying to get through to him...I am not trying to dominate you. I let him be him and take the lead when he needs to. But it is also trying to help him understand, I will not be dominated but will be by him through thick and thin. I am not like the women (family and past relationships) and trying to build a good strong partnership.

Thank you. It was hard to make that decision. I tried to work with him, but he completely shut down and shut me out which killed me inside. I tired my hardest. He contacted me a couple months later and apologized what he did to me and said I didn't deserve that. I told him I really appreciated it and I would always be there for him if he needed me.

If you think of it as being dominated then you might want to retaliate. How about you think of it as him being the leader and suggesting changes to the plan.

No fire for fire. Just serious and professional conference on the harder Issues.



Hmmm, interesting. I will need to chew on this in personal life application. I am great at this working with retired Military officer/High Ranking Government officials. It is a fine line you are to walk but need to walk to accomplish a task or resolve a problem.

It's almost July.. seriously? Almost 7 months later she's in another relationship? The Lioness, you should be ashamed. I'm not serious, by the way.

I am in total shame. How dare I?? How dare not get hung up on something not there. How dare I remain single until I found the right person I felt was a great fit for myself and him....Yeah I am so bad and not conforming to the 1950s. At least I know I wont be a lonely cat lady....dealing with this cat (myself) is enough in itself. HA 🙂
