After a 48 hour "stand-off" of sorts...I finally gave in to my Libra's little temper tantrum he was throwing and gave him what he wanted...which was apparently, attention.

We have been through this so many times since we've been long distance. He is so needy!! :/
I have other things to do with time then text him all day, and he cannot except this.
You would think by the way he acts, that we never talk...but the reality is we text ALL DAY...never does a day go by we don't talk, let alone more than a few hours. If he doesn't get a response to a text within 15 minutes he acts like he is so neglected...

So, he was acting out again...being bitchy...ignored a few of my phone calls, but texted me immediately after with "what?" (LMAO) *eye roll*

So finally I went off on him (which is obviously all he wanted) put him in his place...told him everything I stated above. (he got all my attention in that moment.)

His reply: he hangs up...then texts me a picture of our dog with a message "you're boring us, bye."

The leeb I was with worked out of town for about a year. We got in a fights cus I didn't want to talk on the phone during my morning commute. But he was effecting my morning happy time. I don't want to talk, I want to walk up drink my coffee sing with the radio. I tried to tell him, and it was "oh, you don't love me?", throw in a scorp venus and it occasionally it was also "who are you fucking in the morning?"

He was really into bitching tho, he'd just go on and on.. beyond a certain point everything he'd say becomes useless. I'd tell him once to leave me alone... which never did anything, so when he kept at it I'd just grab my keys and our joint banking card, he'd follow me out to my car, and I'd leaving him in my rear view mirror bitching in the road while I went shopping. After a few hours, I'd get an I'm sorry text. And I'd go home happy. And he'd be apologizing and wanting to fuck instead of bitching about the stuff I just bought.

I had a man begging to please me, and I had new stuff, Taurus SCORE!

I'm not exactly sure how your supposed to deal with it, but that method worked for a number of years. But you should never take relationship advice from single people.

Lol thanks Rob

not bad advice though

lol 🙂

The ignoring thing sounds familiar. Nope, not gonna text him til he texts me. Hmph! Oh, he took all day. He can wait now lmao. Guilty as charged. Sometimes we're just fucking babies. Cuddly, cute texts here and there should work even though it seems so.... Obvious because he should just know without talking ALL day, that's how you feel. The biggest thing with a Libran, I do believe, is the reassurance of love. That makes Libran dudes seem like some pussies lol but I'm gonna go out on a limb and assume this is what your dude wants.

Yes, because normally if I responded to anyone else in such a condescending baby voice they would just be even more pissed...but somehow he likes it. It's all he wanted lol

Libra male here. We are an odd sort that is for sure. I'm a wee bit different in that I tend to worry if I'm annoying someone, but we do love attention. We like to feel wanted and well liked. My tantrums are a bit different in that I will just completely ignore someone and act ticked off. It's very rare, but when it happens the whole world knows something isn't right. I will say you bought right into the game, he wanted attention and you gave it to him (I got a good chuckle out of the dog pic and you're boring us lol). But as others have said, we only do it to the people we truly care about. I don't think it's out of the realm of possibility though to set some sort of boundaries. We're bad at making decisions so if you can just do it for us, I think you'll both be happier.
