Leos and conflict

Hey all 🙂

I have two main leos in my life..i adore them yet i have noticed that neither one them like getting into conflict or potential conflict with me. They are both very capable of standing thier ground with other people but when it comes to me, they use excuses or become a little distant when i'm fired up. When i'm fired up it is normally over how they have treated me and they won't confront me on it. This causes me to get into a sour mood with them or keep my distance.

Its both a leo male and leo female lol i'm wondering if these are attributes related to the sign since they both do this lol Do leos not like getting into conflict with people they admire?

Not to mention my leo female best friend is very and i'm talking very territorial/ possessive of me and the leo male is showing the same signs. Whenever i get too close to another guy or even look at one he makes his presence known. I'm okay with it a little by my female leo friend...i just find it weird coming from my leo male...

What the hell, is this normal?

We choose our battles.

yeah, i can relate to the protective/possessive qualities of my leo sign. i've learned to deal with those feelings effectively though. i'm much more protective than possessive now. i don't mind sharing my friends for i love to make new ones myself. however, i do realize that whenever anyone new comes into the picture i need to meet them right away or i will feel slighted. i see this with other leos in my life as well.

there are 2 other leo girls in my regular circle of friends. one of them had to move about 2 hours north of my city for school about a year before i merged. she came down to visit every now and then and, while she was usually nice, she seemed to be a little put off by me. well, she's done with school now and she moved back about a month ago. we were all out a couple of weeks ago and she i and got to talking outside of the establishment we were hanging at. it was at this time she admitted to me of her possessive problem. she's really into astrology so she tried to explain that she's very leo but she's working on this issue. she confessed to me that she was a little weird about me during her visits because i became part of "her" regular group while she was away. while it wasn't rational she felt a little cheated because she felt it was her right to be "in the know" about my being there. it's like she needed to give her blessing or approval if you will. now that she's back she's much more accommodating and has made concerted efforts to be closer to me. she is a true blue leo if i ever ran into one... and i am one myself! i think it's because my chart is all sorts of mixed with equal parts of every element (with fire only slightly being the most dominant).

mm so do all Leos can't control their temper? ... I thought this comes by practice..

Once we "do battle" (for me, anyway), I know it's going to be over.

And this is where (some of) you Scorps must get a false sense

of security-- it's happened with a couple in my life (one, however,

tracked me down a decade later and then I finally found her ten years

after that.. we're still friends because we just are, but 20 yrs of no contact

was ridiculous).

And when they finally pushed me to the point that I didn't care anymore,

like only Scorps can do... I let them have and shut it down, permanently.

I'm guessing this is what your LEO friend is thinking, too, if she's anything

like me... so appreciate your amazing friendship instead of foolishly thinking

it's from admiration (rly?), and testing it out of existence.

🙂

I should note that both had fixed moons-- one Scorp moon and one LEO moon.

The Scorp/Scorp is the one that I'm friends with, again. ♥

I'm a Leo and I love conflict....

... and I don't want to burn bridges

I don't enjoy conflict and prefer to avoid it. However, if backed into a corner, I will fight 'til death.

Moreover, I WILL gladly fight for what is right, for a principle or idea in which I truly belive. I will also put myself on the line to fight in favor of the underdog.

It must be your Scorpio eyes- So intimating! I can just imagine how much your Leo's admire you :p

For me however, In terms of confrontation- I will never confront or assert myself against someone who i feel is weaker than me.

It's like fighting a cripple, not really my thing.

Leos are notorious for making excuses or even excusing the negative behaviors of the people they love. I have yet to see a child of a Leo sun or Leo moon person that was well behaved or didn't have an excessive level of immaturity or lacked self discipline.

Once they consider you a pride member, they still demand respect, but they back off from going to the point in conflict that the relationship is ruined. My Leo boys are like this to the point that my son was allowing his female roommate completely take it out on him that her little brother (who is my sons bestie) isn't pulling his weight. She has to cover her brother's share of the living expenses when he fails...which is often, but she was taking it out on my son while attempting to put him in the middle of the mess. I strongly advised him to distance himself with simple phrases like, "I know that it's stressful for you that you have so much responsibilty, but I need to rest/shower/eat/go to break dancing practice/work, etc" and let her figure it out alone. I also told him to just say, "ask your brother about that" when she asks him about her little brother's employment status or job attendance. My son has a very strong character and I was surprised that he was allowing her to make hid life miserable over something that has nothing to do with him.

My Leo moon Scorp won't go there with me either. He becomes passive when he thinks things are really bad for us. I'm careful with that though and try not to take advantage of his kindness.
