Ok, OK. I first I am a Leo, I get it! I have them. I reached mine and still going. My estranged spouse is also a Leo. The past couple of years have been tough for me. Job Loss, pride hurt, financial issues from job loss, depression from my world not being right. During this time, he was going to school full time then asked to leave for several reasons. (head hung in shame) I begged him for to help out and get a job financially especially after he left school. We have three kids and things were hard. He refused for various reasons. One of his biggest reasons is because he is going to be a famous DJ at age 37 and his career is going to be taking off. Music is his love and that what he wants to do. I supported his dream for music for a while until it interfered with the viability of the home life financially for our children. Remember I am the only one working supporting three kids and a fourth who would take money out of my account for his non existent music career and still trying to recover from my job loss previously. So as any Lioness, it threatens your cubs, you become deadly and I started to despise his music.
The day we lost our house I told him I wanted a separation. I needed him to show me he is willing to do anything possible for the family as it is needed even if it is against his own interest. I have my BA almost MBA, have worked hard coming into the workforce at 26 and have increased my salary almost 3X what it was when I started in 2006. But, if my kids needed it, you bet your ass I will be saying, Can I take your order please? He doesn't see it that way. he sees it as I am not being the supportive wife and supporting his dreams. OK, but dude a famous DJ making millions at age 37. Grow up, you made me your wife 14 years ago and we brought three lives into this world. Dreams have to be modified. Is this typical Leo behavior? Or extreme Leo Behavior? It is either one extreme or the other for him no middle ground.

Dimplez, I agree with you 100% . I don't if he is in a mid-life crisis or not. But that is why I told him to go. You can't take care of those who needs you because of your own selfish wants then do it yourself. Through many conversations his minds has not altered, thus why I foresee once our "waiting" period is over we are divorced. I have lost the respect for him I once had and sadly, if I am the type that if I lose respect for you as a person or you show characteristics that I see as not having morals or values I find vital, my warm heart goes cold. I hate it is coming to this and it hurts, but as Lioness, my cubs well being are my number one priority. The family needs come above my selfish wants.
