So I posted in the Gemini section but want to get opinions from the Libras themselves. Maybe they can explain to me the situation from a Libra point of view. Here is my post:

So I am a male Gemini, and the guy is a male Libra. Long story short, we got to know each other online. I have known him long before but only made the move around April last year. We have a tons of mutual friends, but have yet to meet each other in real life because I only made a move on him after I left the city for work half way around the world. We hit it off instantly, talking non-stop 24/7 for ALMOST a year without any break in between. The longest that we went without texting each other was like 2-3 days when he/I had to travel for work. So it's safe to say that we have/had legitimate interest in each other and truthfully I am surprised by how long we were able to keep this long-distance thing working because I get bored extremely easily.

However, the guy only wanted to text and exchange photos (normal photos, not the other kind). I made the requests to call him 3 times but he denied it each time, so I dropped it, and did not think much. Fast forward to my birthday this year, the thing is, I could not care less about my birthday. I'm not the type to throw a party /expect gifts from ppl/like being the center of attention. One year I even locked my fb for that day so I did not have to go thank people that wished me happy birthday lol. But I do expect to hear sth from him, because he seems like the kind that care and would remember such sort of occasions. But boy he forgot. I was disappointed, man was clueless til I told him about it a few days later. I wasn't mad at him though, just a bit disappointed, but no big deal. As some of you might know, 2nd week of June there is EDC music festival in Las Vegas. I missed out this year because of work. Before the festival I kinda picked up something weird from his behavior (I'm pretty quick at this, or should I say Gemini in general all are lol). He would take longer to response and the response is quite short. And no follow-up questions so it's hard for me to keep the conversation going (I hate those interrogating-like conversations where one asks and the other just answers). Figured he's busy planning for the festival I let him be. So he texted me the night of the festival saying "Hi, Im at EDC Vegas. Wish you were here. I miss you. *heart*". Sweet I thought. Then I got on Instagram, browsing the hashtag #edc just to see how the festival is this year and voila, a picture of him and another guy was on top of the search. And the convo is nothing short of flirtatious (hearts everywhere). I gave him a benefit of the doubt, did not say anything and still answered his texts like normal (which has gone down to like 1-2 texts/whole week). I did stalk the other guy's instagram rigorously though (insta stories, old posts, comments, etc) so I know their whereabouts and I am quite sure they are at this point seeing each other. Decided to block the Libra's instagram (we did not add each other's fb, weird huh?), and wait if he noticed it and asked me on iMessage. Dude didn't and totally vanished. It has been 2 weeks, and needless to say I am quite disappointed. I'm not mad at him though, because I have prepared for this day where one of us might find someone else more geographically convenient, I am just extremely disappointed at how he handled the situation. I sent him a text yesterday asking for closure something along the line of "Hi, so I guess you are dating someone now, am I right?". No reply. Did some investigation and the couple is traveling for the long weekend (July 4th in the US).

So what I want to know is what the deal with this Libra (he is older)? He seems like a caring type, so this sudden change in behavior is quite a shock to me. And he seems quite matured, or at least he presented himself as such, so I just don't get it. And how do I deal with him now? I'm planning on giving him the full weekend plus a few more days (I don't want to disturb their vacay) then if still nothing I'm gonna drop him an essay about how disrespected I felt and how I hoped this relationship had turn out better (I was willing to be friends if he was more truthful and honest). At this point, how do I get under his skin?

With absolute silence!
So no more texts? I just wonder, do Libras tend to behave this way? Ditching the old for the new with no explanation at all? And down the road do they ever think about the damage they have done and come back? Just curious. Not that I would take him in, because to me once I'm done, I'm done for good. I was hoping to at least stay friends but I guess thats not gonna work. We Geminis give chances but they have limited expiration.

Sometimes this kind of things happened whith some Libras because they don't know how to " end things " so they'll wait until they find someone else and then poof they vanish.

It happened when the other person has better things to offer, i hate to say those things but it's the truth for some Libras unfortunately



Thank you, all input appreciated. ^^

Well needless to say, I am extremely extremely disappointed by how the events turned out. I am not mad at him at all, because I would have done the same, but at least I would have the decency to give an explanation. But to treat me like I don't even exist it's just on another level.

I have seen this situation happened before to my friends who date Libra males though. Libra women, fortunately, do not seem to have this trait.

I guess he would just give me the silence if I keep sending him messages? So I should totally ignore him and move on? I do hope down the road he reflected on this, and we for sure will be meeting again soon though when I visit the city (we have tons of mutual friends but we did not disclose our relationship to anyone so I think inevitably we will bump into each other at some parties)

Yeah best to move on. Even if you send him a message.. at this point he will only try to be nice and end it fast.

The distance could have been a reason but Libras tend to be indecisive so....

I think you should move on without skipping a beat. That's the best way to really make a person fume.

You sending messages will only feed his ego.

Take whatever you had as a learning experience and find someone geographically closer to you, as well.
Thank you. Yeah I have already made up my mind to let things/him go. Already block the other guy's instagram so I don't develop the habit of checking their whereabouts LOL (which I tend to do with my ex and it's not good for your mind, at all). I sure work/life would keep me busy and before I know it I will forget about this. I'm just disappointed by his sudden change that's all. No hard feelings whatsoever.

But, in case I bump into him, what should I do? In about 2-3 months time I will be back to the city for work/travel. SF is a small city and we have like a lot of mutual friends so I think it's quite inevitable that we cross paths. And I don't want to look like I'm purposefully hide away from him (and I guess I should have moved on by that point. I move on quite fast when treated dirty). Should I all smiley and all or should I pretend like I don't know him?

That is a tricky situation. I think if at that moment he decides to speak with you you can tell him that you were disappointed with what happened and that you no longer want to keep any contact with him.

I think that would be fair.

Depends on him as well. If he chooses to avoid you... you should avoid him as well. But if in any case he tries to talk i think you should tell him you have no intention of talking with him.

He's back with a simple "Hello?" after my serious question. Guess the long weekend is over and they are back to the city LOL Shall I just keep silent?

Thanks for the advice. Was doing fine the past 2 days. And now he's back with a simple "Hello?". A part of me wants to stay silent and the other part just wants to let it all out LOL. And I can't believe after I asked if he was seeing someone his response is "Hello?"
Are you serious ?! " Hello ? " ... Hahaha i'm sorry i couldn't help but laugh, it's unbelievable. It's like nothing happened

What do you want to do ? Will you let all out or just ignore him for now ?

Yeah I was like "You gotta be kidding me" LOL

Had he texted me earlier I would have unleashed it all on him for replying with such stupid text. But now that I have had some time to cool off (as a Gemini I rage quickly but cool down just as fast haha) I think I would just keep silent for now. Nothing is gonna change the facts that 1) He's dating someone else, 2) He treated me quite disrespectfully (which I have really low tolerance for) so even if he apologizes I will still not be able to treat him as a normal friend. I think that the more I let myself dwell in this and get involved with him the more emotionally drained I will be, and I don't like that. Life seems fine to me for the past days when I didn't have to think about this matter as much. So I will sit still until his next move. And if there is no next move then I guess this relationship isn't worth saving 😄

Thank you Astrology101. That is what I intended to do for now. But what if he comes back with more stupid texts and acts like he hasn't totally ignored me for the past 4 weeks, and as if nothing had happened?

Just let it go... writing an essay will only sound dramatic AF and only encourage his decision to move on... he's already ghosted you and disappeared faster than Houdini...so what's the point?

I get that you wish to seek closure but I think the proof is pretty concrete... if you need to write out your feelings like many Gemini suns/moons...then do so but don't expect for him to reply. Many don't because they are cowards and would rather disappear.

And to add - air signs have a tendencies to disappear just as they came... just like the wind that passes by and you can't get a grasp on... these are the hardest to overcome because they had no solidity and many have that instinctive urge to 'pin them down'... but you can never pin air down. You as a Gemini - should know this... he maybe mentally mature but that doesn't mean he's emotionally mature or even aware of his behavior - like a lot of air signs... I had to become self-aware to realize that I had a tendency to do this as well and because of my detached behavior I didn't see this as anything wrong...I figured that it was 'clear enough'.... but part of emotional maturity (and personal evolution) is about empathizing with others and understanding that not everyone copes the same way you do. Many air signs although 'mature' are not evolved... same can go for any other sign
Yeah thanks I no longer intended to do that essay thing haha it was because I was fuming to the point I want him to know how disappointed I am. But to me that's no longer necessary because, like you said, it's not gonna change anything or improve the situation better. Avoiding the questions seems to be one of his unpleasant trait that I have observed while we were communicating.

And your descriptions of the air signs are so spot on. I don't know about Libras but I am also guilty of this in several occasions. But the thing that frustrated me is that he came back as if nothing happen. Like sending me a "Hello?" after my serious confrontation? If I disappear then I will never go back, at least not this quick and not in such an absurd way. And if he keeps sending me texts pretending like he did nothing wrong or nothing ever happened then God knows haha But I'm staying quiet for now.

Haha that's kinda cruel. But the joke is on me. He got me first. Forgot to silent the phone when I went to sleep and 2 texts came in at 4:30AM saying "Hello? Who is this? How come I don't recognize this phone number?"

I'm dead .... LOL can't with this
