I'm unsure where this relationship is going to go. Anyone have any input/advice/experience?? He has a Scorpio Moon, I have a Sag Moon.

I am 47, he is 53. Been a month and we seem to be doing OK so far. Agreeing to take things slowly....as hard as it is for me some days, it's what I know I need. Still got that wall up for fear of getting hurt. I really like him and just protecting myself from getting attached too quickly as I know I am prone to do and I don't want to mess things up. He has been single and independent for a long time.We have a great time together when we get together. I always have fun and feel comfortable. He has grown adult children. I have 2 younger children (12 and 9), one with special needs. He told me that he likes me and wants to make it work. He knows that there are challenges for him because of my younger kids. I appreciate his honesty....I feel he is ALWAYS truthful in how he feels and thinks. VERY refreshing to meet someone that speaks their mind and honestly....good and bad :-).There are sparks when we kiss :-)

Are Leo's normally very independent, stubborn and "distant" at times. He is a very busy man at work and I understand that and give him his space.

Do I chase? Do I let him know occasionally that I am thinking of him? I know Leos like to be complimented and appreciated. I just don't want to be a pest.

Just looking for some input. Thank you.

I love sun to moon compatibility... and you two have it both ways.

Occasionally let him know you're thinking of him-- sure... occasionally.

Otherwise, he won't appreciate it, anymore.

Complimented... eh.

Appreciated... yes, if it's authentic.

LEO men are really different from the women (imo)-- so I'll let them

go on about the rest.

Hope this turns into something good for you both.

I'm a Leo man married to Scorpio woman and let me tell you, this relationship is full of stubbornness lol. Although she can be a bit fiery, she is a water sign to the core and very emotional.

Her moon sign is Aquarius and mine is Sagittarius so both of us love freedom and her moon sign can make her quite the cold person.

Another thing with this pairing that can be good/bad is that both Leo and Scorpio are independent signs and really don't need anyone's help to accomplish things. Sometimes this can make both signs feel unwanted or not needed when in the relationship.

There will be fights I guarantee you and usually it is due to the egos both signs have. One thing that made it tough in the beginning with my wife was both of us going tit for tat with the other lol.

The advice I'll give you is keep astrology out of it, it'll say you two are not compatible, but you're attracted to each other for a reason.

Good luck.

It seems like things are going well so far, and your fears are natural, @Aramei. Going slow seems best, and just trying to enjoy the good experiences you're having with him as you get to know him better, to see if the relationship might be something you can commit more to over time. It can take many months to get to know a person enough to determine that.

I don't have much to add to what Montgomery wrote, based on what I've experienced with Leo/Scorpio pairings.


@Montgomery Please describe the differences between Leo men and women that you've noticed. I've observed this too, but don't know how to articulate it.

I don't know if I can do any better, CopperDove.

Because it makes me think... the LEO Men I've known typically had fire moons.

The LEO women have water moons (or a LEO moon, which imo is different

than the other two fire moons, but I'm biased... I like LEO moons, most times).

I think they can be more temperamental with too much fire-- almost petulant.

More self-preserving (again, coupled with fire moons), whereas the women

are a bit more open-- they'll (we'll) still skewer you, if you break our hearts and/

or embarrass us, but I think our fuse may be a little longer-- more resilient.

Thanks! Most of the Leo males I know have fire moons, too.

But I know one Leo male with a Taurus moon and he seems much more laid back then the fire moon Leos I know. I didn't guess at all that he was a Leo, he seemed so earthy.

It's sometimes said that Leos when upset (if it's minor) can pout, and I've seen that with some of the Leo males I know, but not the females.

Scorpio female dating a Leo male here. I have never been happier. He takes in all the outside attention so I can lurk happily in the shadows. I agree with previous posters regarding love of freedom and independence. However, if you just continue to be honest with each other about needs it works out great. By far the most affectionate sign I've ever been with. Though it took some time in the beginning for him to let his guard down. Just be patient. Don't chase, but do respond warmly and positively when he reaches out to you. Eventually, in my case, he took the lead and is now mushy all the time lol. I wish you luck. I'm 40 and he is 53 btw so we have both been married, hurt and come through the other side. I asked him why he never re-married and he winked and said he'd been "saving himself for the RIGHT one". I like that because I've been single for 3 years now and been saving myself too. It makes us both feel special.

What do you mean about the sun/moon compatibility? Are we compatible that way?

Thank you for your input. I am a bit confused right now. I know it is all the holiday stress. I'm just not sure what's happening in his head. I like to know!! LOL

He texted me last Friday in response to a text I sent him and said he is sorry if he is seeming distant. He is not, just busy with work and having some health issues (back). He said he enjoys spending time with me. Said he is independent as he has been single a long time. Said he would call me later....have heard nothing from him. I am trying hard to go day to day without worrying if I'm ever going to hear from him again. It makes me realize why I chose to stay single, this dating thing is stressful and hard on the emotions. 😢

Just going to try to get through the holidays without expecting to hear from him.

I think it's been enough days since he said he'd call you to contact him to ask how he's doing, etc. in a friendly way. I dated someone who was quite independent and often busy and time would fly fast for them. Usually things were fine when I reached out to them, so hopefully that's the case here too.

Over time, if he doesn't have the time for you that you have for him, you can decide if it's worth it or not to continue, but for now just a check-in seems like a good idea.

He contacted me Tuesday from work and said Hello hope your day is great. I responded with the same. Nothing since. Guess he was thinking of me....that's good LOL I actually ran into his daughter that night and talked to her a bit. Do not know if she told him about it. This morning I sent him a Merry Christmas message and told him I was thinking of him and hope to see him soon. Letting it go at that
