How long is a LEO loyal?

I understand that it is said, when LEO is in love with you, he is loyal! However, since you guys have a reputation of quickly falling out of love (which would be -- I read -- when you stop forgiving her mistakes -> whatever that means?) then

would you still be loyal? Would you at least let the person know that you have fallen out of love?

I wouldnt say we quickly fall out of love at all (females at least). Actually, we tend to fight for something until the bitter end, whether it's for the right reasons or not. Most times we fight to salvage something just for the sake of not being a failure at it. Once it's over and we have given all we have to give, yes we move on quickly. We are excellent rebounders. We always tend to see the better of each situation. Now, that's not to say that we don't love hard and loyally, because we do. But to answer your questions....

1. Would we still be loyal? NO

2. Would you at least let the perons know that you have fallen out of love?... Yes AND No. We don't like to hurt or disappoint anyone but you usually always know where you stand with us. So, we might let you down easily, but we would give you some indication of the change in temperature. And IF we really were in love you, we will always have love for you, you just end up in a different category.

Seriously how many men actually leave you and tell you why or when...most just leave a woman hanging from the looks of things around here....Why should you expect anything more from a Leo—

Your description of Leo Love and loyalty is pretty much the way I see also in friendship. Leos do NOT give up on their friends easily. I have seen this throughout my friendship because I am the one who usually breaks the chains of contact. I disappear in silence and my LEO friends always forgive me for that. They continue seeking me up. I assume that is how I can relate to ROMANCE somewhat.

Unfortunately when it comes to Romance with me, my waters run deep and hot. I realized with LEO man, the more open I was about my feelings, the happier he appeared. It is very hard for me to announce my love all too often, but when I sense he wants to hear it.. I tried to be very open with him. When I do open my heart, I do get this unbelievably bothersome feeling that I may get hurt for opening myself up so much. It is conflicting. In a friendship I don't mind opening up my heart, but in Romance I have overpowering feelings that I know can destroy me. I suffered a depression for a very long time after this Virgo man disappeared on me last year.

which brings me to Sweethearts question:


Sweetheart -- I was only left twice in my life by men I fell in love with. One was when I was 16 and this last time was last year in my 40s. I am super picky when it comes to giving away my heart. The first guy fell in love with my best friend, but he told me the reason. The second guy, the Virgo, just disappeared.

I had casual relationships when the guy decided he wanted to move on, I asked.. what's the reason? The SAG told me, all his friends are getting married, he wants a younger girl and wants to get married. The other guy, the LEO man was just recently out of a marriage and he told me that I am more the type for long-term relations which he was not ready for. Which I actually found very funny, because I would never have wanted to marry him. It was just a casual/ sex only relation.



ProVs --

That is what scares me... which is the definition of "FAILURE". What does failure contain? For example, with LEO man I realized that he blows events a bit out of proportion, meaning, instead of keeping things more factual in number or magnitude, he overstates. Let's say instead of saying, it happened 2 times, he says it happens all the time, OR instead of saying I will be upset if you ever leave me, he says I will die and not survive this one. I am a bit worried that he may archive events in such way in his head that h

are larger in magnitude than they really are.

Therefore 'failure' could also mean that Leo man may remember things in a more serious fashion than they really are.

So yes.. I agree with the sense, if it is over, why staying loyal?

I am just hoping for a fair explanation before he decides to be disloyal. It is rather deserving a closure when it gets there.

Yes, you are right.... Leos do NOT give up on their friends easily. I myself only have two prior friends in my life that wronged me to the point of never trusting them again. I do not hate them nor do I wish bad things upon them, I just will never allow them back into my life again. This is not something that happens to me often. I think as a Leo it is somewhat engrained into our personality profile to be that way. But of course it does depend on the individual's past relationships and life experiences.

The reason your Leo man appears happier the more open you are about your feelings would most likely mean that he has feelings for you as well. As a Leo, we like to be flattered and lavished with attention, so hearing how you feel about us when we adore you makes our light shine brightly. There is nothing we get greater pleasure from than feeling our love is reciprocated by our object of affection. It is understandable that you worry that you may be hurt by exposing yourself. We all have those fears... at least I know I do. All I can say is to do what you feel your heart can handle and take it at the pace you are comfortable with. If you don't open yourself up to the possiblities you may miss out on something great! Good Luck!

>>> Btw, I do not represent the majority of Leos, this is just my own opinion. The answer to this question will depend on what we have experienced in previous relationships.

I have nearly zero tolerance for the following.
1. Her whole life revolves around me
2. Suicidal tendency
3. When my 1+1=2 explanation was interpreted in complex Physics or Calculus computation
4. Emotional blackmail

Other imperfections I can tolerate but the above is really an annoyance and that's when I realized you can't change the stripes of zebra to polka dots.

Btw, my LEO man says the same.. he does not represent majority of Leos, he is the quiet type who rather observes.

Another co-incidence is... that the name on your amblem is his partial name... ha hahaa

Can you open up Number 3 please? Do you mean you have zero tolerance for complexity coming from women? Not sure if I understood correctly. The rest makes sense. It looks like you do not appreciate weakling ladies...


It is somewhat conflicting, because LEO men I met so far do sound themselves like those 3 points you made up there (1,2,and 4), but as you said, you must be the exception.

ok ... what I am trying to figure out is that those 3 points coming from LEO man was until he hunted his Lioness. Now he is in a less active stage.


Can't figure this one either...

ProVs & Ike


Thank you for showing and clarifying no.3.


I do have the tendency to assume and I did see Mr. LEO getting very upset twice for that matter.

This is an interesting thread, OP.

Provs, I have a question for you (and any other leo who wants to reply)- Do you observe that you don't want "the woman to revolve her entire life around you" after you've hooked her, been reassured of her interest, etc.?

I know you stated that you are not the typical leo BUT do you blow extremely hot in the beginning of courtship and need contant reassurance?

Thanks for taking the time to respond, Provs.

One thing about Leo women, we are very approachable, even if we're being standoffish -- we are not afraid of the truth and you could always approach us with anything and get warmly received. I'm thinking if you've got some questions in mind, that if you just ask your Leo, he will answer them in a straightforward type of manner.

I totally agree with this statement.

thank you all. 🙂 I respect Lions even more now for what your sign represents in you....

Would you at least let the person know that you have fallen out of love?

I can't speak for all Leos so I will speak as an individual, but in broader terms if that make sense.

First question:
Yes, that is until he/she decides to move on.

Second question:
No matter how painful it may be to tell another person who you were once in love with that you've fallen out of love with them, the answer is yes. No sense stringing them along and perhaps it's best to communicate this to another person.

I am going to tell you the brutal honest truth, Leo will be loyal to you IF and ONLY IF they are getting everything they deserve. If they feel they can get EVERYTHING they deserve from someone else they will cheat. Most of the time Leo is content with your company so this is what constitutes of EVERYTHING they deserve. If you play mind games, this will keep the Leo going however once they are BORED or FIND someone they think gives them MORE then you they will cheat.

Oh you are trying to dump a Leo? Well you shouldn't have hooked her in the first place. That's just my opinion. Leo's don't go out falling inlove with everyone, it takes balls, work and time. So if you don't want her "life" to revolve around you which in guy language usually means some evenings and weekends, then you shouldn't have revolved your life around her, wasted her time, energy and value to get some pootang. You should definately let her know you have been wasting her time, that it's exactly what you have been doing, that you are sorry, and that she doesn't deserve someone like you. I'm sorry but you have to know what you are getting into before you literally getting into it. People aren't toys that you can give away when you are done with them.

I am loyal to a fault. There have been people I should have just walked away from, but between the loyalty and pride I have thing on too long. However once its gone, its gone.

I agree with the statement earlier that if I have ever loved you deeply that I will always have love for you and would never hope for anything negative for you.

Cheating is something that I have never done and will never do. If it is to the point that I want someone else than I will just leave. However, getting me to a place where I feel comfortable to be committed is another thing... I am a total relationship person and like monogamy, but I can be tough to pin down.

I couldn't agree with LeoLady more! I could've written the same exact response!! _??

Well Hi again... 🙂

I had forgotten about my inquiry on these forums about this past Leo man who was a short-lived romance.

Thanks for bringing it back up. Interesting to see this thread coming back alive at a time I consider crucial.

Similar thoughts were coming to my mind.

I feel there is an ENDING in the air.


Our contact with past LEO man continued for 4 months.

Family issues came in between. His parents threatened. We had big age gap. Not that I was expecting anything, but it was nice as long as it lasted.

I recently had some bad falling out with a Virgo.. that was about 8 months later when this LEO man's persistence gave me some inspiration to hold on to.

I was just curious if he was going to be honest with me in the end.

He was.

I hope he is happy and successful where he is. A July 25 LEO.

* sorry I meant, 8 months after the Virgo, I met this Leo man.
