Leo Loyalty??

I need some insight. I (a Libra) have a Leo friend who was/is my dearest friend for three years, but her behavior is now confusing. She was one of the first people I met when I moved to this town and we immediately hit it off, spending a lot of time together each afternoon (gossiping at the local cafe). At the time, I wondered how she had time for me all of a sudden, wondered where her other friends were. But then I realized that when she gets bored with someone, she moves on--she has admitted that she can only have one friend at a time around her (she says she doesn't like it if they give attention to each other and not to her), but I didn't realize that meant that some friends (me!) got dropped completely. I feel very hurt by this, because what I thought was a friendship, turns out to have been an amusement for her, just a way to pass the time. Or at least that's how it feels.
My mother is a Leo and she seems to have some similar traits--goes where the drama is, abandoning other friends, but not quite with the suddenness that my friend has.
I don't mean to sound harsh on Leo--obviously this person had very wonderful characteristics, which made me want to befriend her in the first place, but this situation is troubling and confusing, and I wondered if other Leos exhibit similar tendencies, or is this an anomaly with my friend.

i don't do that, but sometimes people do change and values change so i just go with my gutt.. and surround myself with like minded people when im in a certain mode...i always keep in contact with friends i care about either by calling them or droppin them emails...never cutoff contact unless i think they are selfish...or i get busy with other things in life...i think it's just a maturing process...i think you can learn from everyone in life...so why just limit yourself to one or two friends? maybe she is just and expansive person and can talk to anyone...

Yikes! She's not my ONLY friend(!), just a dear one. I just wondered about her concept of One Friend at a Time. It's sort of like serial monagamy, but with friends instead of romantic relationships. And it's not like a natural growing apart, as inevitably happens in friendships, but inexplicably sudden. In any case, thanks for your input.

hi im a leo girl i have to say that you are reading her all wrong she isn't really bored with you or her friends but likes to give 110% to her relationships so when she has an overload of companions "close" Companions it's harder to give her all. so if we see that the relationship isn't the going anywhere or that they do not have the traits we expect in a "friend" then we will stop waisting our energy say someone lies or doesn't show up when they say they will often or flirts with our man anything that has a hint of disloyalty will push us away we do not want to be hurt by someone who isn't standing true to their word. If you at nytime have not been there for her or him when they were goung through something they may more then likely think of you as less then a friend.

leos are selfish people, they try to love and care about other people, but the entire time you think that they are listening, they really aren't because they are thinking about what they are going to say next about themselves. I am a leo, trust me i know, and you know what? it's okay because i reveal the truth, i try to listen to people, but when i hear a story it triggers an interesting story in my mind, that i, in turn think i should have the right to tell my funny story if it is as interesting as the other persons. I really hope everyone is following me here, leos can go through many friends because they are socially extremely outgoing, they would sit there and have a conversation with a wall and laugh about it just because if they aren't amusing anyone else; at least they are amusing themselves. I try not to go through friends like that, but here is the simple fact: i stay true to my girlfriends of like 10 years, hardcore girlfriends, but guys...that's another story. i always feel so attracted to so many different men, and i always know my potential, so i never setttle down with anyone unless i really like them, but until then i am out to seek out the fun in life, meet new people, if we hit it off, then we hit it off and we will take it from there, but when a guy starts acting like a dick, or stupid or annoying or anything less then perfect, then i activate the "ONE STRIKE YOU'RE OUT POLICY" which you know what that means, you tell them to go to hell and never talk to them again. I know it sounds ruthless, and yes in a sense it is, but the only way to get over one man is to erase every possible way of communicating with him in your call long, text messages, and phonebook, never talk to him again, and go meet someone else, and what do you know? life magically goes on. 🙂 Life is good, don't let anyone bring you down, not for one damn minute 🙂

She seems like a lower leo... taking the leo tendency towards egocentricity to the extreme. Leos can be socially selfish and befriend people for their own gain (even if it's just to have an audience), but at the same time they are perfectly capable of maintaining friendships, even if it require that their friends know they have a bit egotistical (we all laugh about it with my leo friend but she's the first to admit it, and we've been friends for a very long time). However, despite their social selfishness they are quite giving with the people they really do care about.

That's a good way to desctibe a Lower Leo! Higher Leos are glorious though so no complaints here. I try to encourage to use my Lower Leo friends to use The Power of Attention selflessy instead of selfishly, but I don't force them or control them to change, I just sort of try to lead by example - some get the point, some don't. Just an idea for those of you who see lower Leos on a regular basis.

Everygal deserves better than that.

The Leo will be with the one who's gonna look at him/her the most, it's not rocket science. Give attention and flattery and they won't be going anywhere.

^^ They really are THAT easy aren't they! (Sorry Leos)

I think all Fire signs are easy though, naive Aries, royal Leo, and joyous Sag - haha three cheers for the easiest signs to hit on! hahaha

well i know this is a old message but i just want to say leos do nothing unless there is something to be gained i personally think she wanted more than friends with you that is exactly what her statement ment she hung around but got no results so she figured there was not sense in sticking around for leos are always looking for a relationship so she hung around to see if you would ask but you did't so she disappeared.it's never that we are bored we just don't get what we expect so we leave.

Im a leo and I find it very annoying when I see people talking shit about leo's like we anit the shit!!First off let me say that not all leo's are negative and arrogant like most people think etc.I think overall me being a leo I am a kind hearted person,but if you play with fire you get burned.Most leo's that I know are cool and down to earth people.I'm sorry that leo's are natural born leaders and that we are strong and that people take our strength as being cocky,stuck up,concieted and so forth.Leo's wouldn't be leo's without our strength.so who ever had a leo friend and thinks that he/she is being a bitch or whatever take the time to talk to that person.And not to mention leo's are very open minded and out spoken and we love honesty.People kill me saying that leo's are this ans that but leo's are the king/queen of the zodiac.The sun represents who leo's truly are.so people if you came in contact with a leo and he/she gave you an attitude it's probably for a reason.SO don't get it twisted without leo's what would the world be!!!!!!!!!!!!!
