Leo Men - why do you ignore people you like?

I have been chatting to a Leo guy we met up and have been on a couple of dates which were absolutely amazing and we even said that we couldn't believe how well we actually got on. The Chemistry was amazing and we had a kiss and a cuddle but that's it. His communication wasn't great before we met like he promised to call and then didn't and then called a day later. We met got on so well he was full of compliments and told me that he really liked me and hasn't liked someone like this in years. It was just amazing but then last couple of weeks he has backed off and I seem to initiate all the texts and he replies but not always. When he does reply they are lovely messages and always quite flirty. At first it was a mix of me and him initiating texts but lately its been me. He will sometimes just send me a random text like ask me how I am I reply and then nothing for 2 days—? I am so confused as I do like this guy and I know that we will be good together. So I have asked him directly whether he wants to see me again and I have not had a reply? he has been saying that he definitely wants to meet etc.... but why is he ignoring my texts when all I want to know is whether I should still pursue him or just walk away? His rising Sun is Scorpio, Sun is Leo and Venus Virgo. Please can someone explain this odd behaviour.

I am a Scorpio 🙂

Emily stop wasting your time, chase a man and he'll run.

It doesn't matter why he's doing what he's doing. What matters is he's doing it to you and you don't like it and with that being said...

Stop initiating contact, take your lovely dream of having love, future, boyfriend with this man and cast it aside because he's not willing to be what you want.

When a Leo male wants a woman he'll do whatever it takes to ensure he gets her and if he's not doing anything despite the good time, compliments, flirting, then he's just blowing smoke up your ass and keeping you as an option.

This happens a lot when it comes to online dating, people lose interest, people have too many options and can't keep up with any one person, and men sometimes don't really want anything no matter how much they say they do.

Stop initiating communication because the more you initiate ie chase him the more he'll ignore you.

So, get back to meeting other men online and offline, put the Leo where he belongs out of sight out of mind, go tend to your life, your life has to keep moving with or without him and most of all be happy, he's given you the gift of freedom and another opportunity for the man of your dreams to find you.

thanks for the reply Impulsv - I know I found it to be very strange although as I have never dated a leo before I thought it may have something to do with the way they are as I know they love being flattered and have the need to feel wanted but as a woman so do we.....

Hi Tiki33 thank you so much for your reply that's made me feel heaps better already and yes your right I am not texting him anymore or making contact I have text him asking him what he wants and no reply so I guess its about moving on now and he in my eyes has lost his chance... I am a very patient person and quite persistent as a Scorp when I want something I go for it but I guess there comes a point where self respect means more to me and your right think he is just feeding me and feeding his ego at the same time. xx

yeah I guess I do really like him and we connected straight away which was amazing but I guess I cant just sit around and wait for him to fix up..... I guess time will tell and I only asked him yesterday what he was thinking so I guess he balls in his court now....but in the meantime I cant afford to waste time and sit around even though I am upset. Thanks for the reply 🙂

Thanks Jynja... So what do I do now it's all about his lack of communication when we are together it's amazing but when apart just random texts....

Thanks so do you suggest I wait for him to text back ?

Ok thanks I think I'll leave him until he responds he obviously is having his time out x

He text me we are going out at the weekend....do I approach the lack of communication? He did apologise for being rubbish lately xx

I wouldn't labour the point with him to be honest. Like Jynja has already said:

"If you want him and can understand his issues with the phone, sticking with him through it all can win you the ultimate life partner"

Your responses here show you are flipping from saying you like him and you want to stick with him, to virtually saying "fuck him I don't care"

If you want him, decide that, then decide HOW you are going to make it work not IF you are going to make it work. Solutions not problems yeah?

Ok thanks I guess I just been a bit confused I do want him yes but I guess your right it's about the how xx

Hi all, ok so my leo guy has asked for some time out as he is having some personal issues I told him I respect him for letting me know and I'm here if he wants to talk... He has reassured me that he loves what we have and wants more if it and that's fine but I'm just wondering do I just stop all contact or do I still let him know I'm here from time to time?

I agree with Tiki on this she gives great sound advice.

If you want something more than a friendship than I suggest you give him some distance and time. He's a grown man he can take care of his own problems. If you want just friendship than sure be there for him as much as possible and call him all the time.

IME Leo men might ignore the person they like but they will never purposefully ignore the person they care about. And those two words are the difference between a person they date casually and a person they can seriously commit to. Because you "like" a friend but it doesn't mean you want them romantically.

There is not enough information here to be definitive, but from what you've said I get the impression you might like him more than he likes you... and that can be dangerous for a persistent person.

Since we don't know for sure I suggest you play it safe and just give him some space and time to sort through his problems. If he cares enough he will continue to contact and pursue you. Plus, in a time like this if he's really going through some shit he will need the space and time

Thanks for your advice xtina I will give him the space he has requested and you're right if he wants me he will sure come back and pursue me just didn't want him to think I was ignoring him completely with no contact x

So recently during the christmas holiday I met this Leo guy we got talking and it really seemed like he was into me, he was so loving we even shared a heart baring kiss before he traveled but for two days now we haven't spoken...he hasn't called just texted me when arrived his destination and I don't like to wait, I thought I met my Prince charming cause he seemed to be the man of my dreams..I don't know what to do..our time zones are 6hrs apart and I don't want to seem too needy he told me he trust me so I don't even feel comfortable calling up my old friends to hang out cause from our conversations he wouldn't want that...what do I do cause if this doesn't work out I think I'm done with Leo men for life😣

I'm an Aries girl

Why did you resurrect a 6 year old thread instead of creating your own?

Thats men in general so l cant imagine leo men...

I'm a Leo woman,and I do what he does when I'm not really interested.sometimes I just chat people up for fun and leave them at double see nreceipts.let it go.if a Leo loves you,you'll be tired of seeing his face everyday,but if you keep on chasing he'll lose interest and ignore you,well you never can tell just wait it out and see what happens.
