We were together for nearly 2 years. I was his first love. Our lives transformed togeth r and we experienced a lot of firsts. We had serious plans of building a life together. We viewed rings, model homes, and spoke about your relationship often. I even found a timeline that he created for gifts and vacations he wanted with me and engagement, marriage, future home together— down to the architectural financial details. He was CRAZY for me and I, equally, him. Things got bad after we stepped into shoes to big for us af the moment. We moved in young and the pressures of finances and individual autonomy bogged us. That alongside an unexpected pregnancy and loss of pregnancy caused a major raft that lasted for months. Other people got involved and we separated. Undeniably, however, we loved each other and still saw our futures together so we tried to make it work but because we never took time to heal and evaluate our own contributions respectively to the issues, we were on and off. This past “breakup” we got into a petty arguement and we didn’t speak for a month. Fast forward, I went to his place to make things right after some personal growth and recognition of my contributions. Two days later, he tells me via text that he still loves me but that right after we stopped talking that month prior, he started seeing someone. He says that he is on the fence because he loves me and knows that I am everything he wants in a woman, but that he feels we have differences that separate our union. He said he thought after we “made up”— sex, that things would feel the same but they don’t and still thinks of her and that he’s confused on what to do. I responded with “ I really appreciate your honesty. This hurts because I was so sure about us this time. For me, it felt like new. I wish you the absolute best with your new situation.” And he didn’t respond. I figured he is thinking, so I’m not going to say anything else, but inside I am HURT. I genuinely had tunnel vision for this to work this time, and for he first time ever, there was someone else that made him contemplate us and our potential future. I will leave him be, but my question is: Is it possible to regain the love of someone who was once in love and who saw their future with you, literally one month prior? And what would be my best move, if I am serious about wanting us to work again, in respect to him being a Leo man and with what he’s expressed?
How to regain a Leo man’s Heart?
If anyone could help, I’d appreciate it 😢

Leo male and Scorp female is a hard combo to manage. The petty arguments are the least of the problems. Communication style s are completely different and miscommunications happen regularly. Scorp ladies are hyper sensitive compared to Leo males. Leo men can be very brash and direct, something that Scorp ladies can’t handle.
If you want to win him back, be consistent.
Hope this helps
Thank you. Should I reach back out or would it be best to let him make the next move? Our relationship didn’t fail because of life style compatibility. We want the same things, we just hit a rough patch and communication wasn’t the best. I’ve grown and would like to give it another go, but idk if hope is lost. When I went over there, he even spoke about us in the future sense. It was two days later that he mentioned being on the fence. I responded calmly and concisely, but I’m wondering if I should say something else.

I reached out to him with a heart felt msg just now. This was his response:
“I understand.
I have so many emotions going on at once and like every thing came down on me at once.
I have relationship anxiety
I’m afraid to get back with you and not feel the same.
I don’t why I don’t feel he same
I love you deeply but right now something is stopping me from being in love with you “

Okay, will do. I offered to take things slow and told him relationship anxiety is normal. This was his response:
“Just let me think because I have so much going on in my head.
I have so many insecurities and things that just make me feel like nothing and I just need time to think about all of this and what it is that I personally want and figure out if I can even handle a relationship knowing that I will be busy 7 days a week for the next 2 years. Then there’s the gym and different things like my teeth and all that I want to tackle. I’ve gotta look in the mirror and think I’m sexy or look in the mirror and like my body and teeth and all before I’m able to hold someone’s hand and live a loving life with them.
I just need to process this all because it kinda caught me off guard and I just need time to think”
Idk... I’m losing hope. This wasn’t the response I thought would come 😢

That’s not being strong OR confidentclick to expand
That wasn’t my response per se. I sent:
I understand. We’ve been through a lot and it’s scary to be vulnerable again when your heart thinks there is a possibility of getting hurt. Kinda like how I was when we first got together.
I assure you that you have nothing to fear. If you felt it once, you can feel it again. You just have to be open to it and dedicated to healing.
It won’t be a light switch. It’s a slow process, but it’s worth it. Maybe we can do a counseling session, or we can come together, I sit on your lap and we have a candid discussion?
Or we can have a fun day— nothing too heavy. Boat ride on the water and just genuinely be present with one another. And slowly, we will work on the hard things.“


When a relationship fails for a leo we take that HARD. For we mainly blame ourselves.
Sounds like the leo you’re dealing with maybe lost himself in the relationship. He’s trying to get back his confidence and be happy on his own, as he should. We don’t come back the same ever, but it gets pretty close when we get our happiness back first.
Time will tell. Wish you luck!

Thank you! I understand him wanting to get himself back together— I want that for him too. His last msgs to me were:
I’ll be off 9-20 and we’ll be able to talk more but just let me finish setting up college stuff and just unravel my mind. I’ve already been super stressed out with money and different things so just let me unravel this weekend and we’ll talk when I’m off. But I do think I would like to try and rebuild, just give me time to unravel and think”.
Does that sound hopeful. Ive given him space but my anxiety is all over the place. I’m freaking out and I really don’t know how to calm down inside or what to think.

Call or text him. A very simple & direct message aka meet me for coffee! A little ego stroking, a light kiss on the cheek, some light flirting. He might be licking his wounds over you this very moment & it feels wonderful to hear u want some time together.

As @Superman77 said, you'll need to be direct and consistent if you're looking to get back a Leo man back. As @MoonshineLeo stated, we Leos take breakups hard and we're never quite the same (with that particular person) after that. This is especially true when it comes to our first loves. Leos will never love harder and dumber than when we're with our first love. We may love just as hard for our true love, but we'll be a lot smarter about it. A Leo is ALL IN when dealing with our first love though, which is why the Leo had so many plans for your relationship.
"The best laid plans..." Unfortunately it is impossible to plan out all of the fine details of life, which you both discovered. Things aren't always going to go perfectly, but in this Leo's mind ANYTHING was possible while you two were in love. However now that the Leo has had a dose of reality, he is rethinking his goals and weighing his options.
It sounds like he still has feelings for you, but doesn't want to risk experiencing the same emotional fallout you two have had in the past. While Leos don't mind intensity, we don't necessarily equate it with passion. Too much intensity over too long of a period can burn us out. Leos do need levity at times. While your relationship may have a deep history, it's also littered with some serious baggage that may weigh it down too much to be enjoyable. This is where a Scorpio/Leo relationship can really fall apart.
Also one thing that stood out in your post was that, "other people got involved". For Leos other people getting involved spells the end of our relationships, one way or the other. If the Leo got involved with someone else, that's a clear indicator that his feelings are no longer the same for you. If you got involved with someone else, the Leo will never go back to fully trusting you again. Leos have long memories or don't forget past slights easily. A Leo who can't trust you, can't truly love you (at least not in a romantic sense).
My advice is not to overwhelm the Leo. Be consistent but give him the space to figre out what he wants. Meanwhile really consider if you want to be in this relationship or if you want to start fresh with someone else.

Thank you so much for your in-depth analysis & advice. I definitely do want this relationship, not a single doubt in my mind. As far as trust goes, if everything is clear in the table and he has access to it all, is it possible to fully trust someone again? While he has done his trespasses against me, I am able to fully forgive and trust him, like new. Is that at all possible?
And my involvement wasn’t in the form of cheating or anything. One instance, an ex texted me. Before I had he chance to respond, he went through my phone and addressed him before I could even have the gratification of doing t myself (I had waited long to see the end to that ex so it would’ve been a moment of empowerment for me). He was upset that I wanted to respond. There was another situation where we were going out of town and a good guy friend from college was from there, so I messaged him and asked his advice on things for me and my boyfriend to do and to also meet up with him. My ex was highly upset, when my intentions were good. And lastly, I dated and had sex with someone while we were apart. That hurt him a lot, but we had been broken up three months and I truly thought we were done. It was a moment out of desperation for intimacy that I hadn’t realized, but my intentions were good. These things have formed as baggage to him, but i truly meant nothing by any of that. He has done similar things as well, but I’ve never held onto it. I almost feel like a criminal, when I did not of that with bad intent.

That all depends on what happened between you. Forgiveness and trust don't always go hand in hand. A Leo may forgive, but trust is a different story. If a Leo's trust was given away freely the first time, it won't be so easy the second time. It all depends on what happened between you.

Sounds like your Leo has some maturing to do. Don't get so caught up in the intensity of the relationship that you overlook the issues. Your Leo exhibited some control/trust issues in the past. If there isn't mutual trust between you, the relationship simply won't work (regardless of who is at fault).
I spoke to Leo.
He said that he loves me a lot but his love for me was a distraction to him, in accomplishing his personal and career goals. He says when he is apart from me, he works out and is focused. & That when we were together, he would get so enveloped in me that he didn't get anything done and that he would only be thinking about me. I said that it has less to do with me and more on the fact that he made the personal choice to start doing those things and could have done them within a relationship.
Also-- The baggage from our previous issues weighed down on him and he hasn't forgiven some things yet, so when he talks to me, he feels super serious, versus happy. I understand that happiness and peace matters in a relationship, but of course he doesn't think he would be happy if neither of us have worked on bonding since the issues happened. With the new girl, he said he met her through a friend and they just clicked. He says he doesn't necessarily see a future with her, he goes with the flow-- they just work. If it doesn't work, he won't care. I guess to him, it's like a refreshing glass of water after an impassioned situation. If you're focused on yourself, why date? i'm broken, because he had a head start. He didn't even officially break up with me. He said he didn't know we would be done, but he met her and clicked.
He says if it's meant to be, we will both be available, but that he has to focus on building himself right now. I don't quite understand because in my mind, two people can build individually and give each other space while without losing each other, if he really loves me. I asked if he is willing to do that knowing that I may meet someone new and share a life with them instead. He said if that's what happens and that's what it takes for me to be happy, then yes.
How can he be okay with that? Idk if this is a rebound and ego talking or what.

He says if it's meant to be, we will both be available, but that he has to focus on building himself right now. I don't quite understand because in my mind, two people can build individually and give each other space while without losing each other, if he really loves me. I asked if he is willing to do that knowing that I may meet someone new and share a life with them instead. He said if that's what happens and that's what it takes for me to be happy, then yes.
How can he be okay with that? Idk if this is a rebound and ego talking or what.
The Leo's love for you has changed. Essentially what he's saying is that he no longer sees your relationship as a productive one. He can't get over the past with you and doesn't want to go back to a relationship that could spiral downward. He also doesn't want to go back to a negative headspace and is looking for a lighter more fun experience (hence the other woman he's dating).
Since you two do have history, it's hard for him to separate you from the past pain that he felt with you. Since you were his first love, he has nothing else to compare your relationship. He's now seeing his options and is looking to have fun without serious strings attached. Remember for Leos relationships are just about intense emotions. That becomes draining and unproductive for us. We need to feel lighthearted and carefree at times as well.
Also a Leo's goals are very important to us. If a Leo feels that the relationship will conflict with our purpose in life, that's a huge problem. For a Leo our relationships must click with the rest of our lives. Otherwise the relationship will become problematic. This Leo is starting to understand this and doesn't want to enter into something he thinks is doomed to fail.
Basically while the Leo stills cares about you, he doesn't feel he can be with you at this time. He wants to see what else is out there and what other experieces he can have. If he stays with you, he'll only resent you because deep down he feels there is more for him to explore. With you he feels as if he is being limited in some wat. Whether or not you two can come back together is a separate story, but right now this relationship feels like it will smother him more than it will help him grow.

He also said that he could work and rebuild something but he's not sure how he would feel or if his mind would change along the way, so he doesn't want to hurt me.
He's looking to have new experiences at this time. He feels that he knows what a relationship with you looks like and he doesn't want to recommit to a situation that will not fulfill him.

We were together for nearly 2 years. I was his first love. Our lives transformed togeth r and we experienced a lot of firsts. We had serious plans of building a life together. We viewed rings, model homes, and spoke about your relationship often. I even found a timeline that he created for gifts and vacations he wanted with me and engagement, marriage, future home together— down to the architectural financial details. He was CRAZY for me and I, equally, him. Things got bad after we stepped into shoes to big for us af the moment. We moved in young and the pressures of finances and individual autonomy bogged us. That alongside an unexpected pregnancy and loss of pregnancy caused a major raft that lasted for months. Other people got involved and we separated. Undeniably, however, we loved each other and still saw our futures together so we tried to make it work but because we never took time to heal and evaluate our own contributions respectively to the issues, we were on and off. This past “breakup” we got into a petty arguement and we didn’t speak for a month. Fast forward, I went to his place to make things right after some personal growth and recognition of my contributions. Two days later, he tells me via text that he still loves me but that right after we stopped talking that month prior, he started seeing someone. He says that he is on the fence because he loves me and knows that I am everything he wants in a woman, but that he feels we have differences that separate our union. He said he thought after we “made up”— sex, that things would feel the same but they don’t and still thinks of her and that he’s confused on what to do. I responded with “ I really appreciate your honesty. This hurts because I was so sure about us this time. For me, it felt like new. I wish you the absolute best with your new situation.” And he didn’t respond. I figured he is thinking, so I’m not going to say anything else, but inside I am HURT. I genuinely had tunnel vision for this to work this time, and for he first time ever, there was someone else that made him contemplate us and our potential future. I will leave him be, but my question is: Is it possible to regain the love of someone who was once in love and who saw their future with you, literally one month prior? And what would be my best move, if I am serious about wanting us to work again, in respect to him being a Leo man and with what he’s expressed?
Not as simple as just sun signs... Moon and Mercury play a tremendous role in long term relationships
My Leo man and I were really head over heels in loge with each other. He said he had a crush on me since high school. He was very sure that I am the girl for him he even told his parents, friends, colleagues and everyone in our hometown knows about us. He was the sweetest, most loving, generous, kind hearted man ever. We already had a plan on when we will get married. He introduced me as his other half one time he brought me to his church- he's a Christian. So things we're really perfect. Even on monthsaries he will surprise me with gifts, flowers and cake. He's the man that every woman would want I never demanded anything because he will give it even before I asked. Things turned sour and he changed so we started to fight. Then the unexpected news came- I was pregnant. We both weren't ready so we argued and I said hurtful things I insulted him and I broke up with him. He was hurt I know. I was so hurt too I felt he abandoned me. He said he won't but he blamed me. We didn't contact each other for a week and then I was bleeding so I found out I had an ectopic pregnancy. I called him and he came to me he was there throughout my operation. I was thankful for him that he didn't leave me during those times but he was distant and cold. I told him I want us to work out our relationship. I told him I was sorry for breaking up with him it was Just because I was really hurt and depressed. But he said he loves me still but didn't want a relationship as of now. He has a lot of problems soon he will become jobless coz their company will close. So I agreed. We still communicate but I was a mess coz I miss the way we were especially the way he cares and loves me so I sent him a long email. He did not respond and it's almost a month now. I called him I asked how he was and he sounded okay. He said he can't be in a relationship with me because he was hurt and humiliated. He did not expect I told my friends and his family about what happened to us and he hates that. I know it is over. But I just can't get him out of my mind. Our relationship was once perfect even we have a little fight before. He was my true love. I don't know if I could get over him. I can feel he's moved on and here I am, depressed about the loss of my baby and the love of my life. Should I hold on to his words that may be someday when the time is right and everything is okay we will be back at each other's arms? If I call he would still answer but I stopped calling him. Our family especially on his side were very sad they are expecting we will get married. I am really depressed and sad.

I’m sorry that that happened to you. Leave it alone for now & give him space to get over the hurt. He may never, and that’s okay. But more importantly, you are hurting from your loss of pregnancy and the end of the relationship as well. Take care of yourself.

Oh man that’s like a nightmare
Your unrequited love and his obvious zero fks.
Tell me about it smh

So did you give him his space or nah?
There was a point when my ex first left that he was remorseful. The first week but i could hardly speak to him trying to process it. We started talking more every day after that and I was sobbing, begging for extra minutes over skype. He kept hanging up and being distant trying to avoid my constant emotional spewing over the situation. Then I had this huge revaluation that I was being an absolute bellend begging for someone's attention.
I quit the bullshit, picked my life up and then the tables turned with him making a solid declaration to do everything in his power to come back but no, no, baby. No thank you. He is also a triple leo.
I hope yall have had some break through...
Hi Mudra! I definitely gave him space. I ended up calling him that one last time that I mentioned above, where I cleared up the misunderstanding that he spewed during our first falling out a few days prior. I was so upset because I felt like he had this impression of me based on completely untrue things. So I called to make one last attempt at understanding and to ask if he was sure. After he said he is happy and that he has more clarity and feels better without me around, I haven't reached out to him since. Honestly, I don't even want to at this point. It feels so below my worth to beg someone to see the goodness in me. And honestly, Mudra, I have been soo good to him. I literally took him in and helped him to become a better person that he is today. He had nothing when I met him. Now that he has "everything", I guess he's gotten all that he could get out of me and wants something new.
Even if he did come back, I would remember the love I had for him but idk if I can forget the fact that he so blatantly chose someone else over me and literally dropped everything with me for someone that meant nothing.

I hope you learned a lesson

You are absolutely right. I can not even argue with that. I was young & did those things from the genuine kindness of my heart, not thinking that there was a complexity to it. I couldn't see him down and out and do nothing about it-- my logic back then. Now, if you don't have your ish together, I don't even want to look your way. And vice versa. I'm not dating because I want to get in a place where no on will have to doctor me up either.

I'm not independent or strong
Fuk Leo's
I'm typically independent and strong. With him, it was different. Once we loved each other, I melted. I thought it was worth it.

Seems you're both better off. At least you didn't do anything stupid like get married 🙂 or get pregnant 🙂 🙂click to expand
Yeah.. That's true.
I hope everyone is ready for a plot twist:
Leo randomly texted me today saying "Let's get married"
Mind you, I have not spoken to him in weeks. I didn't respond, because frankly, I am not a yo-yo and it will take more than a text message for me to take him serious.

It's a grand gesture coming from a place of weakness. Either that or he's seeing how you will respond. Either way it's not an offer that you should take readily. You two need to walk before you can run.
The Leo/Scorpio relationship can be a hard one to shake, even when both parties despise the other. The difference being that while the Scorpio sits their stewing about the breakup, the Leo will try to forget it. Eventually the Leo will reach out in one last attempt to rekindle things. This will seem like a trap to the Scorpio who will become agitated and back away. This will then annoy the Leo, which will probably spark an argument and a destroyed connection.

Buy him an umbrella so when he walks home from work he doesn't get wet.
