Communication Disfunction!!

So, I'm a Scorpio and he's a Libra.

[typical oh-the-horror ensues!]

Well, it might not be typical. I'm trying VERY HARD to communicate properly with him! In fact, the thing that draws me to him the strongest is how easily he makes me WANT to open up. About everything. With everyone. The feeling continues even after he's gone. So here I am, on the interwebs. 😉

The problem finally boils down to that my head is somewhat in the clouds. Being around him and having all the endorphins rushing around certainly doesn't help matters, but it's also an underlying issue that I've had for all of my life. Things don't always make 100% sense the first time I say them. I'll say something and use a few words when sometimes a lot more words were needed. Although it hasn't been such a huge problem with most people as it has been with him.

A verbatim example:
Today we went to a sport event, his choice. We'd been waiting for our group to get a turn, and started talking about other things. The loudspeaker came on saying we were to start lining up in 5 minutes. He missed that, so I relayed it. Yes I did so right away, because waiting for him to 100% finish his thought would've meant telling him with maybe 1 minute to line up. Anticipation told me he'd be as disappointed as me. I gestured to the line-up place and said, "Five minutes." He was baffled. Apparently he'd have preferred something more like, "The guy on the loudspeaker said we have 5 minutes to line up."

Much later, we were talking about sharing pictures (too big for e-mail) from another event. They're on my camera. He said he'll have to bring a usb card sometime. I said, "Ooo, put your videos on them! I can show [Name]." He took videos today of the sport event. We'd talked about getting me a copy because [Name] wants to see. I'd related bringing-a-usb-card to put-something-you-have-on-the-card. He'd related put-something-on-the-card to putting my different-day pictures on it to show [Name].

So we're having some communication issues. But not for lack of trying. Any suggestions? I really think this is worthwhile. We mesh so well on SO MUCH!! But not this. And communication is important, whether it be through words or intuition.

Some more astrology info:
My Moon is Virgo, and his is Aquarius.
Both of us have Venus in Libra.
My Mars is also in Libra, whereas his is in Mars.
(I should really have a handle on understanding Libra, right?)
My rising sign is Pisces, but I don't know his.

This bit could be a problem:
My Mercury is Sagittarius. Mmmm scatterbrained. His is in Scorpio. I should be able to use this to my advantage, right? I'm Sun Scorpio and all. However my Midheaven is also in Sagittarius and his is in Libra.

I don't know how much any of this means.

Here's a bit of practical psychology:
He's a guy and I'm a girl.

(Well dang, that about does it, usually.)

But I WANT to do what can be done to try to make this work. I'm open to psychology (something beyond osmosis and practice, though, would be quicker). I'm open to metaphysiology. But as gemstones cost $ $ $ off ebay and amazon, the huge list found by google won't help. 😢 Some personal experience or something a friend remembers actually happening, is something I'd like to try.

I'd like to be able to better explain things. Also, if there is some way to help him better understand the unexplained.

Anything. 0:-)

Edit: his Mars is in Virgo... oops!

Right where my Moon is O_o

This whole post is a reflection of the issue.

Shortened: I'm having trouble communicating in person. But I actually want to improve. Something to make it faster would be great. The idea of anonymously asking a forum was appealing, but probably not very effective. Thanks.

I am having communication problems with my Libra,All the time...
I get tired of always reviewing what I say ... I do love him

Ah the Scorpio and Libra dance! I've never seen two signs who enjoy each other so much, but yet can't ever seem to make it work. That's why they say, when it does work it is the best relationship, but it's rare. I think you need to lighten up on yourself a little bit. Scorpio's don't tend to talk through things often where as us Libra's love to talk and think our way through everything. He should be the one pulling you out of your shell a bit and if it's not something you typically do obviously it will take a bit of time before you get better at it. We are really good at accepting people for who they are and making adjustments on our part to balance things out. I know the Scorpio I was pursing I observed for a long time to see how she behaved in situations so I would know the best approach. Once I got the gist, I toned down some aspects of myself and dialed up the ones that needed to change.

We appreciate any effort people put forward, so just keep trying. If we like you, we will let a lot slide because of it. Perhaps he would have liked you to say 5 minutes in a different way, but honestly I don't think you did any damage. I know I can talk forever and sometimes you have to interrupt me so that things get done. I have a pretty good example that should help you out. The Scorpio I was pursuing worked with me and through a misinterpretation on my part I was doing something she was in charge of. At one point I was beyond my ability to complete the task and had to talk to her on how to continue. She tore my head off and basically refused to help. Mind you, at that point we were on very friendly terms and had been hanging outside of work. I had never seen her do that before and was very taken aback. Often I am hard to read, but I know she picked up on my surprise.

I ultimately fixed the issue and about two hours later she asked if I was able to figure it out, along with offering any assistance I needed. The point? We let those things slide because in the grand scheme of things if we like you we don't want to burn bridges. Keep trying and you will be just fine. The only way to improve is to keep talking and stop worrying about everything you say. If I worried about how I put everything it would be in my best interest to stop talking. I wouldn't worry about crystals and gems, plenty of information online you can use. I actually read this article on Buzzfeed that I think will help! Obviously, this is for a party situation, but most

I am a Libra, and am currently involved with a Scorpio. We Libras overthink even the most simple sentences. It's a curse.

Example (a real example with my scorp)
We were texting back and forth at Christmas time (we had known each other for about 3 mths) and I was very busy at work. He was going out with his buddies for lunch. I told him to have a great time and to msg me later if he wasn't busy. He msged me back that "its been a slice" getting to know me and he said good bye "ciao".
Now... in my head he had just broke up with me.
I obsessed about his msg, wondered if I had done something to turn him off and assumed he was going to pick up a waitress at the restaurant and get married to her.
An agonizing 4 hrs later he msged me and asked how the rest of my day was. I was floored. I never told him about the misread in his text. But I asked him what he meant by "Its been a slice"
He told me he knew I was busy and just wanted to let me know he's really enjoyed the time so far in getting to know me 🙂
Haha! There have been hundreds of times where I have totally read into what he said, and assumed the worst.
The best advice I can give you as a Scorpio is to tell your Libra to take what you say at face value. It won't be easy for him but it's helped me.
