My Leo wants to take it slow, but...

he calls/texts daily, multiple times throughout, gives me money, is always looking at me, especially when i am sleeping (he told me that one), and is always calling me pet names, like cereal and candy bar names...lol. And he wants to go slow. He said that right after we made up, but since then, it has been business as usual.

what do y'all think about that?

Well they say Leos like power.

I think it's nice to allow yourself to enjoy the moment. Rather than questioning yourself out of all enjoyment.

Life passes you by just like that, before you know it.

i certainly agree to that. well, said.
i can't wait to make him a sandwich when he comes over...hee hee.

I dunno you lost me on cereal and candy bar names.

"Hey butterfinger whatcha doin?"
"you wanna go get something to eat fruit loop?"

That's seems strange. If someone called me "butterfinger" I'd say, "why you always gotta bring up the past, I was going through an experimental phase!"

LMFAO clueless.

The sammich thing really cracks me up 🙂 No other sign could make me want to put on an apron and bake like a mad woman while dinner is cooking on the stove... only because I know the pay back and appreciation for it would be endless and wonderful.

ok?
like, with nothing on but that apron.
seriously, tho...i am like, if THIS is taking it slow, his fast must be like coney island rollercoaster speed. i lurves. just weird.

thanks, golden graham.

Cute little crispy!

Stuff like that used to bother me lol. I'm not sure why it doesn't bug me now..

it weirded me out when he first started it...but he always acts like the old papa at the barbeque cracking jokes that are duds but having such an infectious laugh that all the kids and adults start laughing with him and not at him and joining in.

i have to say that i have never had better sex in my life. romance AND sex. sheesh.
i am no whore, but i am quite sexual and have had my share and this man is fucking amazing.
i think it's because he has met his match.
he truly believes he is freakier than i. or course, he is not...hee hee...but i would never tell him that.
fucking leos, man....

I need me a cute little lion to play with and pet from time to time. Good boy, here's a sammich!

lol!

update:
this man...this man...
he is still "taking it slow" according to him, but he is ALWAYS talking about our future together, my meeeting his parents, family, sons, etc.
he continues to call me daily, multiple times, but doesn't text as much. all of this is pretty new.
he says his band members know about me, but not many details. his closest band member friend knows much more, but not TOO much, let him tell it.
he calls me before every show and after every show. dare i say it's truly ritualistic. mind you, he has shows 4-5 times a week.

this freaked me out, though:
yesterday, we were talking about how much fun we had going out the night before. we don't get to go "out" often because he works so hard all the time and when we do see each other, we like to bone it out all day. anyway, i mentioned that i would like to do it again, often. he told me...get this...that he is working on making it so that we can hang out like that every day.
whaaaa...?!?
i thought he was mr. take-it-slow?
what gives?

He doesn't want to define it just yet, is what I take from him saying take it slow.
I.e. call you girlfriend even though you both "like to bone it out all day."

Just continue being a Sag and things will most likely go your way.

I am taking it he is very career oriented right now and has his goals. With you stating he is working hard and his statement saying "he is working on making it so that we can hang out like that every day." he is putting his focus in on his music career. I am going to go out on a limb, when we really dig someone, we want to give all of ourselves to them and if we have other things that we need to do or accomplish that we need to focus on, that will get our attention. And if I really dig someone and feel I can't give them all of me, I won't move forward with them until I feel I can. It just isn't fair to them. So it is up to you. What are you willing to wait for. I could be wrong.

love the comments...thanks!
both sound about right.
sometimes i just need to be told what i should already know, lol

Do you know his other placements, particularly Venus?

yes...his venus is in virgo.

cancer merc and
aries mars

well, he called me tonight after not calling for the whole day. we did send brief texts earlier and that was it.
he said he wanted to apologize for not calling but he had been extremely busy today, more than ever, in the studio.
this man does work a lot...plus he raises his sons himself. his free time is mostly sleeping or trying to get to me.
then he started pouring his heart out to me about how he missed me and how he talked about me to a studio "coworker"
about how he found the ideal woman.
he said that he needed to let me know that even when he doesn't hear from me throughout the day, that he misses me like crazy and is always thinking about me.
then he asked if i were busy tomorrow and could we hang out.
omg.
we talked for over an hour about us and how goo-goo we were over one another.
we talked about other stuff like how it is gonna be when we meet each other parents and sex and more sex and music, but mostly us and our feelings.
he told me to listen to willie nelson " you are always on my mind" lol!
i swear, i adore this man.
and, to think, i almost lost him.
oh, well...let's see how tomorrow goes.
i see good things in the stars for this one.
my leo...*swoon*

msX, He sounds so much like me. He is very career orieneted, and yeah, you may not hear from me during the day with me working so hard and single mother of 3, but it doesn't mean you have not been in my mind. Have fun today!!!!! Happy for you.

My leo did all these cute things at first but once he got his claws dug into me he started the aloof game, I'm giving up.

thanks, lioness! i had a ball yesterday!
ok...jessejames, i feel you on your comment. my leo tried it. TRIED it. then i sent him a text (because i didn't thnk it was up for discussion) that he was not contacting me as usual and not responding to me and that it was tired. and then i finished with "have a good day, for what it's worth"
he never, ever addressed the text directly, he just totally fixed his behavior.
and that is how it's been with him.
he starts to slip, i say i don't like it or i miss the former behavior, and he fixes things.

😢 I am sorry JesseJames. You seemed so happy a couple of weeks ago.

I really am crazy about him but I can't do the sweep you off your feet only to knock you on your ass the next day. I'm just gonna ignore him. He wouldnt' for sure make lunch plans with me today. I told him I will be the one in the black mini skirt and high heels see you then. Nothing...crickets..... crickets crickets.

omg, jessejames.
i can relate to the torture.
stay strong.

Do you ever wonder where PUA's got their idea's on push and pull tactics? It came from the leo natural personality traits.

If i tell a girl i want to go slow its simply for control. I know a woman is emotionally driven and i'll press the buttons when they are ripe enough to be pressed and i want them to be pressed. Hell i've told a girl i want to go slow on monday and bedded her on tuesday night after her emotional 'lull'. We like to think of ourselves as an addictive drug. The high points we create are so encompassing and then we allow that to sink into a massive void before rising the woman back up again. This is the roller-coaster ride that we do unconsciously. This is why we like women with their own lives and not the clingy type because the clingy types will quickly get run down through this process and so will our zest for the hunt. You will never tame a leo - it will always be the leo that finally decides to calm down. This can take years. We will give you very good times but you should know that unless we specifically start to feather nests ourselves or start asking you to help us feather one we are still on our roller-coaster cycle of life.

This is why this aloofness begins again once a woman is at the point of thinking everything is set in stone and predictable. Because we do not like predictable at all. The woman will start to make plans to feather a nest somewhere but we are not actually ready for that yet. It's getting us very bad reputations as long term partners but in reality we are the best long term partners you can actually get. We are not about rushing to become predictable, old and trapped. We are about shining brightly and living a life without limits while we are young and impassioned. A leo from your past will always be on your minds when you are grey and old, its just the way it is. Everyone wants something different out of life and this is why leo-leo couples are usually the best linking couples together because they both understand the roller-coaster that early life can be. Its exhilarating and we would not miss it for the world.

This probably sounds egotistical and very offensive - that's because it probably is. We think and feel differently than most other people and we know that eventually the physical energy that we have always enjoyed growing up will dry out. Understand that if you want a standard relationship with a leo you should wait until you find an older calmer leo. Life is more than a mortgage and 2.4 childre

actually, neurath, i get that!
cool response you posted there.
the thing is, i do the same thing, but not the same way.
i get bored veeeeeeery easily. when i am bored with him, i find my conversations with him more casual.
he picks up on it instantly and starts nervously chitchatting feverishly and trying to make me laugh.
i didn't notice i did this until today when i talked to him, because i have been extremely bored with the predictablility of how our conversations go. i let his calls go to voicemail
for the past three calls because i just didn't want to talk...ugh.
that must be me and my sagittarianlicious ways kicking in without me even being aware of it.
he asked me how will i introduce him to my parents...like, what will i say.
hell, i don't know!
i just made something up.
boooooorrrrriiiinnnnnggggg.
so funny, this is.
when he does this whole thing, i am kinda dumbfounded.
then, when i do it, i don't realize i am and don't even care how he feels about it.
oh, well...
i so adore his ass, though!

MsX are you dating a leo? If you are that's very strange lol. I've never heard us being described as boring before.

My cousin is a sag and me and him will talk for hours on end constantly entertaining ourselves switching here there and everywhere whilst people look on and think wtf its an unstoppable tide! Usually we are reserved around others but when you put us together its like we do a weeks talking in the space of an hour or two. Crazy!

yes, he is a leo.
he is very exciting. we get along famously.
i just get (mostly temporarily) bored very quickly...and it happens out of nowhere. with everyone. and everything.
especially when i began to obsess over an individual and it gets a bit complicated or murky.
my mind just goes into "blah, blah, blah just let me fuck you and then i'll see you later" mode.
i think his push and pull is making me this way.
