I have been hanging out with this Leo guy, and I am finding with every day that I like him more. He doesn't play games and he is very earnest in his expressions of emotion. Basically, he is a very genuine person, and for me, this speaks volumes about his character, because what he shows is so...refreshing. I won't say perfect, because I know that is just an illusion, but damn...he's good.

I am really considering becoming more serious with him. I feel like I can't pass this up because men like him don't come around every day. It's funny..because apparently I am just as susceptible to his subconscious charms as others are to mine. Awwww, I'm tearing up here; just give me a moment *deep breath*.

Because he is currently the apple of my eye, and I want to get serious with him, I've been doing a lot of thinking regarding just about every aspect of the relationship and what becoming serious would entail. Of course, one of the many aspects I considered is that of *surprise* astrology. So I thought I would share what I have been thinking.

I tend to agree. Leos are very real and genuine and very warm. I do find them refreshing. I don't think they play games but I am not sure what happened with the last one. (wish I knew)

What are you proposing to do?

I hope it works out for you honey! Much love and luck to you!

A lot of astrologers say that a Leo-Leo pairing is purely physical. And yeah there's physical sparks there, but the emotions run so much deeper. It's like he and I are connected at the brain. I am chalking this up to the two Leos' mutual love of being in love.

I wouldn't call the relationship intellectual by any means, which is odd, because I have always considered good conversation to be of very high importance. But this relationship has shown me that the quality of the topics is not as important as the quality of the connection. I find that thoroughly discussing our feelings for one another - positive and negative - has brought us closer than any intellectual conversation I have had in the past. My theory on this is a bit difficult to communicate...but I guess the best way of putting it would be that I think it boils down to a warped version of the Leos' love of admiration. Exchanging feelings about one another, positive or negative, at least allows us to be certain that we are being noticed, appreciated, and evaluated.

Finally, I think this pairing has potential because I honestly believe that Leos intuitively understand some things about love and relationships that other people need to learn. I hope I don't offend anyone with that statement, it is just a theory, and anyone can feel free to prove me wrong. But I watch people with all these issues in their relationship that are, really, self-created, and can't help but wonder why, it seems so simple to avoid. This is what leads me to believe that maybe they just don't understand some things that I do (as a Leo).

I can understand about the power struggles and the pride really injuring Leo-Leo relationships, but, for me, it has not been an issue. The affection we feel for one another has been enough for us to avoid that type of behavior, although it may sometimes be our natural inclination. The vanity, well that's ok, because we simply feed one another's with our genuine praises, thus making us both very happy kitties 😉. I think Leo-Leo is strong, despite what some may say. The only real concern I have astrologically speaking is becoming too complacent and stagnant and feeling that since we have each other there is no need to work on ourselves and try to remedy our faults. If that can be avoided, I think that, astrologically, we have immense potential to flourish together.

"I think any two sun signs can work. It is really the other placements that make or break it."

Yes, I agree. I'm really just trying to explore the Leo-Leo dynamics (which are unique, as with any sun sign combination) through writing out my thoughts.

** where as some people are afraid to open up, but we aren't.

Oh yes! I totally agree. The last Leo threw me off because he spoke so openly and just asked what he wanted to know. I was suprised and was very closed off as I am not use to being direct or open. As a result of my relations with him, I find it much easier to be open with people. I realize it is okay to be direct and just ask for what I want. I will always be grateful for the changes he has inspired in me.

My Aqua friend would say the exact same thing Lady_M.

I think it goes beyond that though. It is more of an ability to be comfortable in their own skin. Just an openness about who they are. After dating Virgos for so long, Virgos are NOT comfortable in their own skin, it was refreshing. It is a trait I hope to find in my next partner.

Its good to leave somethings to mystery...

No leos arent that comfortable in their own skin. We had this discuassion yesterday on the aqua board and we all came to an agreement....Aquas and leos love one another and saggies too 🙂
