A Simple Question

From what I've seen and observed, Libras get VERY attached to their partners. My libra gf and her pisces dude hang out almost 24/7, and I've observed this kind of attachment with other libras and their partners, regardless of the sex of the libra. I've also heard though that libras like "shiny and new", so how does one stay "shiny and new" in their libra's eyes when the libra is so attached like this?

MY ex(Cancer) was far too clingy for my liking, when it comes to spending time with my partner i choose quality over quantity. I would rather see them once a week with their full attention, the sit at home with them everynight while they try and nod at the right times whilst they are watching the tv/on the playstation!

Bingo to all!
Libras are actually very old fashioned, "shiny and new" is definitely for the novelty only.
And you don't have to stay "shiny and new" for Libra. If they like you, you are always shiny and new in some fashion. If you try too hard, they will like you, but later will go on to their old fashioned ways.

Those that like the "bling bling" have gemini, capricorn or aries influences to their sun. Gemini because the sparkly attracts them; mimics their ADD mindset, Capricorn because it shows affluence, aries because it shows social status.

@LadyLibra12... The libras I'm talking about are early to mid-20's but actually my dad is a libra too. He's still married to my mom after 40 years together. They both do their own thing on a daily basis...hobbies, chores, etc. but he's never cheated on her and although their is no passion between them, they seem pretty content to co-exist. I asked my dad to go on a father-daughter trip overseas but he didn't want to go without my mom, so we never went. A friend of my is an unhappily married libra who won't leave his wife. They have awful fights sometimes, but he won't leave her.

On the other hand, I have a libra guy friend, 21, who cheats on his gf like I don't know what! His gf has a serious drug problem and they always seem to be on the outs but he never breaks up with her and he goes ballistic at the thought of her with another guy.

hmmmm maybe they have an exciting sex life which make better friends outside the bedroom... For me i'm very open minded and yes i love shiny and new... as long as the bedroom is poppin then... I'M HAPPY......... LOL

libras need to be part of a "we". even an unhappy "we" is preferable to aloneness for a libra, especially since most libras are convinved that they can make anything work out well. it's hard to give up and let go. friends are nice, but it's not the same thing.

"shiny and new"...whatever. libras are creatures of habit. new toys and stuff are nice, but we like the core of our lives to stay they same.

the only thing that could ruin the "shiny and new" is to get demanding and pushy and take libra for granted. we can leave at any time. don't expect us to stay. we will stay, but pretend you don't expect it.

I remember reading this thread the other week and wanting to comment but I couldn't think of how to explain what I wanted to say. I just kept repeating in my head, "yes... but, no".

I do like shiny and new things, but not people. Frankly, I don't like most people. When I find people I do like, I don't want them to change and they don't have to be shiny or new. Friends or relationships we can do new things together, go to new places, make new memories, have new conversations... but the same people.
