Okay, so I am going to do a bit of ranting tonight. This Leo guy and I have been seeing each other for about 3 months now. It started off ok, but I noticed little things that I tried to pretend weren't happening. He is obsessed with his phone. It's with him every waking minute. He's continually texting god knows who.

The other day, he took me out to eat and he couldn't even hold a conversation because someone (he claims a friend) was texting him about a construction job working on an oil rig.. To make this very long and very boring story, short, I don't buy it. I've caught him in several lies. I have this feeling he's talking to girls he's met online. He flat out lies about shit. Elaborate lies that are very creative at that. I don't know what to do. I haven't called him out on it yet, but if he is cheating, it's obviously over, but how do I go about asking him without coming off like a paranoid psycho bitch? This is driving me crazy and I've got to say something soon. This is so like me to internalize and fester my emotions.

It seems that you're convinced that he really is cheating. If you are so convinced then what is there to ask?

Even if he were to tell you the truth, which may (or may not be) different from what you believe, it seems that you wouldn't believe him. Therefore, it sounds like your best bet is to move on.
Yeah you're right. I'm super paranoid. I rarely if ever vocalize that with the guys I've been in relationships with though. I keep it to myself. I'm not sure I want to move on. This is the problem. If I confront him and he's not cheating, he'll find me overbearing and mistrusting and if he is cheating, I'll need more proof than what I have.

But on a serious note, what's your sign op??

But i get what you mean..

Leo guy's are the toughest to figure out. Supposedly they're always faithful & loyal. But yeah there are Leo players, womanizers. It's because they're always so dam attractive & charming they usually always have lady suitors.

I feel like trust is one of the hardest things to earn in a relationship.

Clearly, you don't trust him. Because he's given you redflags.

I've actually been with my leo for 5years now. And trust is one of our issues. :/ I'm a taurus btw.

My only advice is to have the "what do you want talk"

Face to face.

You gotta ask him if he wants to stay exclusive with you, or to play the field.

3 months isn't that long of a relationship tho. Have you had the exclusivity talk before——
Taurus Sun/Scorpio ASC. He is very charming and sweet, but history always seems to repeat itself with me.. Pisces, Libra, Leo... I always get subtly kicked to the curb.. Maybe I really am the problem. lol. Either that or I am the unluckiest person in love, alive.

The exclusivity talk? I mean, I'm pretty sure we're a "couple". we go out, we've been intimate on numerous occasions. This isn't a one night stand or a hookup kinda thing.

If he never refers to you as his gf, even if he does what he does with you with another 10 girls, it's not technically cheating because you are not official.
We both acknowledge that we're in a relationship. He hasn't been afraid to admit he's with me. It's just that he's so nonchalant about my feelings. Maybe I've given him reason to be that way, because I cut him too much slack.

No, you Need the talk. Otherwise you are giving him free pass to do it with other women. Seriously.
Ehh. I agree. You guys have to have the talk.
I mean in a relationship , all you can do is communicate to fix the problems.
Taurus girls have trust issues, because once we fall in love, we go all the way. So we're guarded and very protective of our feelings. We always have our "Guard up". So it takes sooooooo much for us to completely trust a guy. I don't think we ever will give a guy that much trust.

You're a bull so you're stubborn as shit. And with ur scorpio rising im pretty sure u don't give ur trust away easily at all. Scorpio's don't fuckin trust anybody ‚‚‚‚‚

Simple solution: next time you see him, be honest. "Are you talking to other girls?"

Im curious, what lies have u caught him in to make you think he's untrustworthy?

Yup. Exactly. I don't trust anyone, really, but I'm too nice on the surface to ever show that, I guess. I don't know. I probably need to fix something within me because every relationship I've ever been in, I got cheated on.

Um, not sure why it cut me off. Anyway..

I was saying that the lies I've caught him in were silly alibis he'd use to explain why he wasn't there. He'd claim to be somewhere, forget the lie he told and then give me an entirely different scenario. I have a photographic memory, so.. I remember pretty much every little detail, whereas most people don't.
There's your problem.

Why do you out up with this?

See that's what I sense ; He's damned if he does and damned if he doesn't. Now don't get me wrong. I don't know the guy. He might be a lyin' cheat. But by the same token, if you don't trust him within yourself, he'll never be able to prove himself to you. See what I mean?

Let me ask you also...do you tend to be mistrusting of people in general? Or of men with whom you're in a relationship? It might be worth considering how YOU contribute to the mistrust issue. I'm not trying to put you down but I am trying to be honest and helpful.

I've never known Leo's to be cheaters. What are his other placements?

I dated a Leo for 5 years and have a Leo brother. Both good loyal guys. I know a few other Leo fellas that are great guys, would never cheat.
yeah they wont cheat with someone else... loyalty could be the only thing i cherished about my leo bf..

too bad i figured cheating is not the only thing that can break a relationship

He is not worth your time girl. I am a leo, but I am fiercely loyal and when I like someone, I am fixated on only them, I would want to give my all to them if could and would smother them with my attention and affection, they would literally be the only one I see and I would do my best to make them happy. I don't think it's a Leo thing to be not faithful, I think it's just a shitty human behaviour, he is just a shitty human who cant control himself and learn to appreciate what he have already, sounds like a greedy guy and would be annoying or even heartbreaking in the long run.

ok im a leo woman here and im not going to pretend to know the leo guys -- the ones I know are charming and they are sociable to a fault -- leo women as well... My advice is to tell him without telling him or asking him... make a statement... something like this.... I notice when we go out you are constantly on your phone and even though you mentioned its a job etc it does not give me time with you ... if it is other people you are texting of the opposite sex and you need time to be with them just let me know as I really don't want to be sitting here waiting to spend time with the man I love if he prefers to be somewhere else ... Leos love bluntness but don't accuse us without proof...if he is anything like me he will respect the fact that you bluntly made your statement without being upset and angry ... If he loves you enough he would not do it the next time or feel really bad to do it ... good luck

I've got to agree with blackphase. I'm a leo and ALL leos I know are very loyal and very relationship oriented. In fact, it's rare to ever see a leo not in a committed relationship. If they aren't you can go ahead and suppose they just had a rough breakup. That being said it's more than likely his placements effecting fidelity.

Regarding YOU- general womanly advice- where there is smoke there is fire. If you feel something is off it is. Assert yourself. Be polite be clear. Speak to him, or walk away. Trust your gut. If he reacts poorly he's not mature enough for a high quality relationships anyways. Remember, you are the prize. If he doesn't get that, it's his loss. And LEOS have a ton of pride. They will in fact let a good thing walk away....(if they are immature)

I think that everyone has the potential to cheat. I would say its probably because he feels as if his emotional needs aren't being met. not saying that you are doing something wrong. just saying that he have needs that he is probably not sharing or he doesn't truly desire to be in a committed relationship. the fact that he is constantly on his phone is a red flag though. could be a bad habit or maybe he has to check in with someone............ I would just ask..

Interesting as I'm Taurus dating a Leo. Can you explain why trust is an issue for you guys?

I was a serial cheater in my early twenties. It got so bad that I thought there might be something wrong with me. I believe it was just my own insecurities. Now I'm in my early thirties and have had three serious relationships where I did not cheat.

But yeah I am very social and I attend a lot of social gatherings due to work and I meet many different people at every job (I am a freelancer). My current man one day blurted out "You are a social creature" like an accusation. I didn't realise it then but he was trying to ask me to tone it down.

I'm friendly and always very warm to work related acquaintances and it is usually an issue with my partners. Doesn't mean I'm cheating on my man though, I'm wildly loyal to the right guy. But if he keeps questioning my motives and every phone call, I feel suffocated real fast. My advice is to ask him nicely. Always works for me. Hope this works out for you.

best thing about us is that we rarely have bad intentions. leos look worse than they actually are. It's a travesty .
I read on a blog about leos.. how you guys act differently than what you feel... like you would show you are cold when you are really vulnerable inside..

why are you so difficult leos?!
click to expand

Hahaha this is true, well at least for me. I have no idea why I do it. Too proud to show my real feelings I suppose. I always act like nothing's wrong when deep down inside I could be utterly devastated by what you just said to me. Or act cool when somebody I'm seeing is affectionate. He could say "I care about you deeply" and I'd probably giggle and say "Is it warm in here or is it just me?" I may even suddenly change the topic when deep down inside I'm all excited and giddy.

Honestly I don't understand it myself

the leo i was seeing was so obsessed with his phone.. i would call him out on it multiple times it was crazy..

he recently broke it off ache wasn't looking for anything serious even though things were great and easy, i think he just didn't want to stop from potentially hooking up with other girls.. however he was loyal when with me, would make sure to see me 4/7 days of the week, always checking up on me, etc.. also a HUGE mommas boy too.. idk he has a taurus moon too if that means anything
