I am a leo man, and i like this leo female. So, instead of figuring out if she likes me or not, what i have been doing lately, and i know there is something going on between us, we leo's can sense that from far away! Just saying!

So... Leo woman! Let me know... What is the way to your heart! :-) And i mean, i know her not yet that well, she is shy towards me, i am shy towards her, she is possibly in denial status or "over-thinking" status or what so ever. How can i get that wall down she builds up.

We both did not talked about us, we just text each other a little bit, she is still kind of little distant, and see each other few days a week in diverse settings like work, school and social life.

Let the tips roll in :-)

Give her lots of attention - don't go too slowly, she'll get bored and maybe has a bunch of admirers as it is, so if one of those starts paying attention you may lose - ask her out now. Play to her mind whilst also remembering to give her compliments - sincere compliments, we can spot insincerity a hundred miles away so it has to be real, its real real easy to attract a leo woman if you are her type.

Well... I have seen her today, and the day started off terrible, ignoring me and at the end she came to me when she left and asked if she was seeing me tonight at the concert where she needed to play. So, that was def a yes, so tonight... And i felt already a sort of a freedom in me before i left that afternoon before i saw her the second time. It started off as shy and not speaking to each other. Then slowly slowly she talked to me and me to her small small talk, and she opened up more, I opened up more. Anyways, so the evening progressed and she was standing all the time next to me, then the magic checking me out happened again... In a total of 20-30 seconds this happened... I looked her way and saw that she was fully staring at me checking me out, after couple of seconds she pulled away and i looked somewhere else as well, few seconds later i checked if she was looking again, and again she had her eyes fully fixed on me i locked her eyes the second time and after few seconds she pulled away, and me too, then few seconds later i did it again, and yup, again her eyes were fixed and locked into mine! My gosh! Then, i walked up there few minutes later, and she was kinda shy while before that we had talked and had an icebreaker lol. So, that told me again that she just so much knows. When i talk to her this evening several times, when we talk, she not only looks into my eyes, she is checking out my face, etc. Happened every time. Very interesting.

After that she was around me all the time, really. She also told me to text her when she left... And i texted her back and forth she was enthusiastic. And i promised to call her tomorrow or Monday...

So, progression here!

Spend some money. I am just being honest here. Buy her something. The price is of no consequence. It could cost a dollar. Her favorite candy bar. Anything. Invest about $ 25.00 and you will get an amazing ROI. Just watch what I tell ya.



hmmmm. have to disagree with this - personally speaking that is. You could buy me anything regardless of price and it wouldn't impress me - cause a) i can usually buy that myself and b) i'm generous and i'd buy anything for you without much thought if I saw something that would be nice for you, so you buying wouldn't be anything extra special, it would just be a normal thing for a person to do in my eyes. Do something out of the ordinary, and don't let another weekend go by without asking her out.

Hi there

I am a leo woman with venus in cancer and in the initial stages what tends to get my attention is men that are aloof. The push/pull thing will make me want to chase someone. I have moon in Aries too so I am pretty direct if I want to pursue someone, but if they are too soft and keen to start with it kind of puts me off.

My venus in cancer is how I act when I am actually with someone, thats when i want to see they are totally involved in me, romantic etc and I want to care for them.

Essentially, what I would want is someone who is outgoing, bit aloof, popular and witty..but with a secret softer side that only someone special would get to see. Once I have chased that person and won them, that's when my romantic side comes to the service and I want to see the softer side of someone.

Be funny, aloof and let her chase you a bit, but once you have her show her how caring you are - towards her only! Don't ever use jealously because she'll roar and you won't like it lol

WoundedLeo..! YES! I did this yesterday. She had to move out, and into a new apartment. Also yesterday morning her best friend moved to another state so she was kind off a "mess" as u can understand. So i texted her "Hope your moving out and moving in went well today! VCan imagine it would have been hectic and emotional with moving and see your bestie leave this morning, so sad 😢 We make sure to pass (the city she lives) to go visit, just because we can :-)" and she replied "I hope we pass through (city)" and my reply was "Yes we will as i am going to make it happen for you (her name)!" and some texts in between and i was with the drummer eating somewhere so i said we were eating here and go to a place on top of a building to drink a drink and said this "Then later on to (name building) for a drink on top if u wanna join us? 🙂" She said "I would love to, but i'm so tired🙂" So i said "Okay 🙂 if you change your mind you know where we are 😉 ha! But another time then 🙂" And she said "Okay, have fun!" and i said "Thanx (her name)! Enjoy your evening! See you tomorrow 🙂".

So you can see how i care about her, and she notice this for sure! Did more stuff like this, just to show her i care. I don't show her when i see her all of myself, i am even careful like she is, i am a lion, too, and am not too much on her and need to know for 1000% sure she likes me before i even try to win her over haha, but we are getting there.

Sadlioness: She has moon in Sag and i think i will hurt her by being really mean and distant. NEVER ignore a leo woman. Even me as a leo man HATES it and will NOT appreciate being ignored. So i don't know if being aloof works. Now balancing the feelings might, as i do not show everything immediately and definitely am playful and let her win me as well kind of, but i hate to be ignored and shall therefor not ignore a chick, sorry...

Long sigh.......SPEND SOME MONEY ! I mean at this point sounds like you have tried everything else. I suppose their is that rare Leo female who is not into gifts, presents and the like. I personally don't know any but I digress.

Buy a card and a single rose. Just spend some freaking money.



Lots of people like receiveing gifts etc. but for me, as a leo, I love to buy people things and do, with or without a reason, so if i get them, while I appreciate them, its nothing overly special to me, its just what I think is normal behaviour - to impress you would have to think way outside the box, gifts are easy.

ok here's an example. A guy bought me a bottle of wine, never mind that I don't usually drink that colour, it was a gift and I appreciated it but that was it. What made me fall for him was he then suggested, in the middle of winter, that we get blankets and go up to the lake (not my place or his...) close to midnight and share the wine while looking at the moon and stars 🙂

Hey Celtic

Oh I love to buy gifts as well. In addition, the wine and the blankets was a really thoughtful idea.

To each his own. Live and let Live. Thoughtfulness is great but give me the purse and the shoes. That's just me though. I guess that's why I'm with a practical Cap. Thoughtful um not so much. A trip to the mall....all day.

In case you guys couldn't guess by now. I am pretty much the typical Leo female that all the astrology sites describe

"Leo women are not very careful about money and you will have to restrain her in this aspect. She can indulge in extravagance to fulfill her desire for exquisite furnishings, home d?cor, gifts for friends or even her own clothes. However, one thing is for sure, neither her home nor she will ever look ordinary. Her taste may be a bit expensive, but it is also excellent. While courting her, never forget that she likes class and style . Don't even think of going to the roadside hamburger stall after watching the movie. She is not after money, but shabby surroundings make her pretty uncomfortable."

100% -Me. I am who I am and to thy own self be true. Show me the Money !! (I'm kidding....uh no I'm not) 🙂

But we do grow out of it; when I got married I went on a shopping rampage, almost bought 3 dozen dresses with matching accessories and stuff and that too finest and really expensive .

Now I feel nauseated at the mere memory of that spree. Hardly ever wore anything out of my trousseau.
two pairs of jeans and some old shirts are more than enough for me.

Do not even feel any inclination to buy or get a gift from anyone.
So I can't say it's a generally applicable to all Leo women.

Buying something is not particularly it i think, do something unique, something special, impressive. It's about being original right?

When you go out, that is when you have to show off, however with Venus in Cancer? As they care more about cozy, romantic or am i totally wrong? Hey i am a lion myself and love to impress her so i would never go cheap ass.



Being a Leo yourself, you must have realized that we combine the charm of two world, we can be romantic, adventurous and practically sensible as well.

Show you care by being practically caring, not just words; and believe me money or show of money does not come in this equation.
Practical/sensible gestures of genuine care will win you more points.

I doubt that playing aloof will also win you much favour, the girl you described in your post does not seem to be the type who would be chasing men just because they are aloof. So my sincere advice is to rule out the option of being aloof or emotionally detached. Leo girls do like graceful men who do not throw themselves at their feet, but to be graceful you do not have to be emotionally unavailable. Kindness, warmth and consideration for her well-being and comfort/happiness will always work wonders with a Leo girl. I have also Cancer Venus and I do not take much kindly to the people who intend to show my any attitude. Be consistent in the amount of interest you are showing, otherwise she will retreat and you would have to start all over again with huge deficit.

Keep us informed 🙂

Admittedly, I have an issue with this. That isn't exactly 100% correct.

I believe the time and thought that goes into something is most important. As long as it isn't compensating for another trait that is NEEDED. If made in honest circumstances (i.e; your particular suggestion of a present, something sentimental, a gift that fits the 'gift-ee') then it's commendable and beneficial. The time worked for the money for the gift, the effort put into 'creating' a gift, and the uniqueness and fitted charm can account for that in it's positive.

But the second a gift replaces an effort or represents a piece that is to 'make up' or 'compensate' for a variable within the relationship (friendship, family, etc; ANY kind) then it becomes utterly useless and poisonous.

Though.. I will be the first to say that I have some form of hesitancy in bringing anything of monetary value into a relationship for the first time. I'm the type of Leo that will run to the ends of the Earth to avoid situations where another person has a chance to pay for something for me.

Hey Ladies,

I will agree to disagree. I don't think homeboy is even listening to us anymore. I am not sure what breed of Lion he is anyway. He seems so timid. Don't know what jungle he could protect. Let me stop, he might be shy. He must be a July Leo. No offense to July Leo's but yall are different.

All this talk, Leo's are action oriented. Dude needs to move, prowl, hunt, chase something !!

Whew, I got all worked up. Maybe it's this coffee. I mixed 3 flavors trying to create something-Dark Roast, Hazelnut, and Light Roast. I'm bouncing off the walls over here.

TTYL -Smooches

Oh thanks for the compliment WL. I'm still working on our project 🙂

I'm a July Leo, i feel like a failed leo most of the time 🙂 I do think we are different to the usual "sterotype" of leo's alright. I'm also pretty shy, but pushed and I will roar very loudly, as my class of unruly 20 year old men found out today, and I'm also very action orientated, if I want something I'll go for it/after it/chase it. You are funny Nala 🙂

I am a August Leo-( 10th Aug ) and I am also very shy and to some extent inhibited and despite being hot-tempered (as Celtic said rightly) I do not like to roar or whatever until pushed beyond tolerance.

I think it's a horribly distorted stereotypical image of a Leo woman that we are some sort of man-eating/using egomaniacs who are ready to put out at the single drop of attention being paid to us.

Thanks guys. I was a fat kid...who am I kidding I was a fat teenager and a fat adult. I still am a little on the thick side. It's ok I make it work ! Anyway, as a fat kid I learned that if you are funny no one cares about anything else. I was the class clown. Not easy to do in Catholic School. Its strange because I can also be the most serious person in times of crisis.

Yup you most definately want me in your foxhole. We are comin home

If I ever offend any one of you let me know. I will most certainly apologize. Step 10

Naa,
Nala you did not offend us, you are part of this forum as much as we are, with all the right to express your individual opinion and to assert your own individuality. We all do understand and empathize with each other---at least I would like to think so.

I was just trying to say that some images/ preconceived notions do not apply equally.And I did admit that I went on an obnoxiously extravagant shopping spree on my wedding; now I really feel bad for wasting my beloved father's money, but it did not stop me at that time when my heart was fixed on all that glitz and useless stuff.

And yes I do want to be a seductively assertive Leo woman, but I am not simply born that way. Had always been painfully self-conscious and felt gawky among other stylish girls of my nunnery. ha

August 13th. I am not timid. I am not assertive either. I am somewhere in between. I try not to get angry because when I do...Hell hath no fury.

It will take me days to calm down and it is an all out war. I mean you might as well be dead. My anger is off the charts. Usually people don't take me there though. I have mastered the art of walking away. With a "STUPID COOKIEMONSTER" uttered under my breath. 🙂

Nala, in the first place, i am a person who is very patient, and I analyze first of what i see and then i write. The opinion you have about me and this girl is based on what you read, without any background. Never judge before you know more. I am not at all ashamed to stand up and fight when i need to, believe me. I am... Not only August Leo's will do so. I am for truth, when something really pisses me off, after a LOT of patience, people will and can tell, and i will tell the truth, no matter what.

Now, for your info, why expensive gifts or being aggressive doesn't work with this girl... And as i knew it. I need to be careful with this girl. I mean in a good way careful. She had a bad experience last year and was almost married to a wrong guy. She is kinda damaged because of that wrong guy and not treated well, and she had a really good year of healing up, but still. She has her guard that comes up, and that is what it is, i have to be assertive, not aggressive, and this is just why she is acting this way when men are coming to close.

Now i know why she is acting that way. The reason, a friend of me told me, and he is dating her roommate, haha, so now i know, he told me that when she is giving in too much, automatically her guard will come up the next day. Well, that is exactly what has happened and spot on i was right.

I told him the stories and he said it confirms totally how he knows her. So now i know the story behind it and why she is acting the way she does. He told me, the only thing is, be there, be available, and press on when it is possible, be consistent, when she gives her borders, don't go any further. Just every single day, never cross her borders, keep slowly gaining her trust.

So, buying (expensive) gifts are NOT going to help me at this point. Further on, if i knew her better, i could, but i would now only on special occasions, and then i would go more crazy and buy something extra special. Not just randomly. It will close her off and it will scare her off. She needs consistency and she needs slow steps approaching her, when she lets me.

Hope that gives you a good look on the reality of the situations. Possibly what you say would normally works that way, i don't know, but not with this girl, sorry..! I know the story behind it and now i understand why she is acting this way!

Nala, don't just shove all Leos into a hole! Quiet doesn't mean shy - but rather.. being a strategist. 🙂

I'm quite reserved myself.

Hey Twin,

I was not implying that all Leos are the same. In fact, I think quite the opposite. I was also not implying that timid is the same as shy or quiet. I am quiet. I am not timid however. There is a difference, in my opinion.


This is what bothers me. The key word here is me. If I share personal details of my life with someone close to me ,lets says a roommate and then the roommate tells her boyfriend. Then the boyfriend tells this guy who has a crush on me and he is using this information as a guide on how to tailor his approach to me, I would be furious.

First, You know details about me that you should not know.
Second, you were discussing me behind my back.
Third, you are treating me like some fragile "thing"

I could continue but I think you get where I am going with this.

I prefer people who are very open with their intentions. I like straight up no chaser kind of people. The what you see is what you get kind.

So, while his Leo is certainly not me...I would prefer a simple rose with a hey "would u like to go out on Friday".

Stop all this psycho analyzing me and my previous relationships and STOP discussing me with other people.

This may have little to do with my Sun sign or my Moon sign. It just might be a ME sign thing.

OH! I appreciate you clarifying that - and so concisely too 🙂

I would be similar in that regard - especially because my complete past has been shared with absolutely nobody. I will probably always remain that way. I dread the day that I am held by my lover and in the back of his mind he'd know that I was contaminated of soul and but a fractured mirror image of myself.

No! I refuse to let that happen. I'll hold a mix of traits a la Mae West, Audrey Hepburn, Mary Tyler Moore, and with some Steven Tyler attitude thrown in there!

Are you a 3rd Decan Leo as well? I find 3rd Decans to usually maintain and find an ideal with the 'open and honest no frills attached' approach from others.

Giver her attention, make her know that you see that she's unique and special and beautiful, but don't be fake about it or lay it on too thick as she'll sniff you out a mile away, AND, Leo women do like a bit of a challenge too.

Be romantic with subtle gestures, and be consistent. Leo women are very atuned to subtle changes in a man's behaviours etc, and if she feels that your interest is waining, she can shut down very quickly and you'll see her warmth dissapear.

If you do manage to woo her, you'll finally realise that she's actually be the one who's wooed you - you just didn't know it! 😉

You need to let down your shield and shyness before she'll do the same. Be fun, but most of all be you.

Invite her out somewhere. It can even be a walk in a nice public park or so. Or to a museum, if she's an art lover. Be your charming leo self, talk naturally, tell her about you and invite her to do the same.

Fact of the matter is, even though Leo men are different from Leo women, I'm pretty sure that you know how she wants to be treated because you like to be treated the same way.




Agreed. I don't know about anyone else, but as a Leo woman I like to be courted. Shy or not. Stop the texting and call her. I am old school. Get out of this digital world. Ask her out like WoundedLeo said. Preferably where you can talk and get to know each other. If you go for drinks keep it classy and don't over kill.
