This guy's a leo with a libran moon. We've known each other for a few years but were always just acquaintances. Few months ago i returned from being abroad for vacation and we messed around while drunk for a bit. No sex. Word had it among friends that he was 'obsessed' but we hardly spoke after that night save for one or two brief conversations via text. A friend showed me how he was retweeting things about scorpios (me) during that period but if he was truly interested he never showed it. And with his playboy rep god knows if i was the even the scorp he was 'obsessed' with.

Fast forward a few months and i came back again recently. A friend had arranged for us to meet as a group one night but he billed to hit the clubs. He contacted me a while later to meet for drinks and i agreed and brought another friend along (one that is a stranger to him). We all played it cool at first, then got tipsy, and after my friend left he started making his moves. He sent me home and 'poured out' his feelings - how ever since know he found out about my return he's been thinking about me daily, how this feels right, how he missed a chance the other time round and isn't about to do it again etc. Basically the sweetest things anyone can say - just that being the scorp i am i on my guard, especially since he had told my friend (while i was in the toilet) that he isn't looking for a relationship and had looked like he was gonna cry when mentioning his ex, whom he had brought up voluntarily.

The next day he suggests flying over to where i am usually based to visit in july. Too fast, no? In all honesty we hardly know each other, and with leos' penchant to move in and out really quick this all seems pretty dubious to me. Since i live in an amazing city, could it be that, while he likes me to a certain degree, that its quite a win-win for him since he can then have free lodging/tour guide? I've agreed to it because his visit will no doubt be interesting - but if he is visiting partly so that he can travel yet save i will be ready to make things really awkward. Also, i don't know if hes coming just so he may sleep with me. As of now both our homes are inconvenient but i have my own place in that other city. We dont talk daily but since that night (actually just a few nights ago) he'll make it a point to say goodnight before he goes to bed. I'm not confident that out interest will even last till july, especially since i'm leaving soon.

What are his true intentions?

Just to add - on saturday me and a girlfriend went clubbing and he had called halfway to ask where we were. After telling him he said "oh i think my and my friends are heading there later too" but later dropped by alone (parted with his friends) apparently because he wanted to be there with me. My girlfriend and i were rather drunk and i'm sure it must have been boring for him but he was pretty chill about everything. No complaints - though not that i'd expect him to (since he seems to be in pursuit). Having laid out his words/actions.. how much should i open up to this guy? At the end of the day like everyone else i just dont wanna be hurt, and while he can be rather sweet at times i dont really know how to perceive this whole coming to visit thing. He already has a list of things he wants to see and do. Hm.

omg...this sounds horribly familiar OT. i'm scorp and i met a leo with a libra moon last summer....not really looking for a relationship....still hurt over ex....had apparently been obsessed with me for months before i formally met him...said the most gorgeous things to me and seemed to mean them....

but then the ex came back and i went through 9 months of rejection hell...with him never actually rejecting me but rather keeping me dangling on a string for all those tortuous months.

he's recently reappered and is talking to me as though nothing happened although i don't think i have ever suffered so much because of a guy in my LIFE...which has been veeeeery long LOL.

please, don't get sucked in. he may be sincere, he may not but all the time there's even the slightest issue with an ex, he will remain unavailable to you and will only hurt you over and over until he's resolved that issue.

just remain cautious but don't invest anything in him until you are sure beyond reasonable doubt what his intentions are and exactly how much pull his ex may have on him.

i have a libra moon too and we just don't like confrontation and will always end up hurting people more by not telling them the truth we know will hurt them anyway....almost cos it's easier for our consciences not to witness someone's pain at our hands..what the eye doesn't see n all that.

You know what I have discovered is a commonality among these posts in my short time here....OVER ANALYZATION of almost every and anything. No one here can tell you that you are not going to get hurt. No one here can tell you that your Leo is not playing games. After all your OP says he has a playboy rep.

Just do it. (Nike should cut me a small check for the plug here) Live your life. You will survive heartbreak, if it even happens. It does not kill. It may hurt. Look at it this way....Would you eat the most amazing meal of your life if you knew you would gain 5 pounds immediately afterwards? Only you know the answer...as for me I am going to eat it and enjoy it. No regrets.

You only get one shot at this thing we call life (unless you are a Buddist then you get ...um alot)
