I'm curious if other Leos have ever been stalked or pursued in an uncomfortable way by someone? Did you know the person or were they a complete stranger? How often does this happen to you? Any sign can feel free to answer really, but I am curious to know if other Leos have experienced this and if it happens with some frequency. I had a woman pursue me a couple of weeks ago even though she was supposedly engaged. At this point my friends have a running joke about stuff like this happening to me.

HOLY SHIT! I was literally coming onto the Leo forum to post this EXACT question. I havent logged on in weeks and came specifically for this topic.

My current BF has had 3 "stalkers" in the last 2 years. One of which has recently found me online and literally looks at anything I post on IG stories within minutes. She doesnt even follow me, so she must be constantly looking at my page. I havent blocked her yet because i was intrigued in how long it will go on, but now its getting weird and ill have to.

Both of these women he went on a few dates with (im sure hooked up with) and ultimately had to block them from email and phone. One went as far to use one of those texting apps thats gives you a new number to text with. He is so friendly that I cant even imagine him handling the situation....which is I think the issue. Leos men are very nice when rejecting ive noticed. I think that warmth confuses people and they cling to hope.

Then a male coworker started stalking him and its an ongoing issue currently! The man was fired from his job as a professor because of it.

I kno there are people who keep tabs on me from a distance... but I wouldn’t call it stalking

Horrible really, who needs the stress honestly.

Just not Leo’s style


Funny, I don't mind someone keeping tabs on me, but I do find it confusing. Why hit me up, if they are not going to do anything? It just seems like they want undue attention and trying to use me as a source, which is not my style .

This. All of it. I have been told that I am too "welcoming" even when I am not DOING anything. Granted I have also been told that I am intimidating (at least at work), so I am not sure what to take from that. I also try to let people down easy because I never know what their mental/emotional state is. If the problem persists however, then I can become brusque.

You sound just like him. He actually feels bad and wont speak negatively about them even now, but will have to be like "Look, this isnt healthy I have to block you." He always seems so confused by the behavior. He doesnt have social media, so how this woman recently found me is crazy! Because there wouldnt have a noticeable link to me. He hasnt seen her in over a year. So she was def sprung!

I will say, I had my own brush with lusting after a Leo....that one I posted about frequently like 2 years ago. To be honest, he wasnt even my type! Was NOT a good fit at all. Looking back it seems crazy I even cared! hahaha
