Libras, how do you respond to nicknames?

I recently found out my Libra colleague has a Scorpio Rising, making him not so Libran-like from a distance.

He is a mix of sugar and spice. The spice scares me a little and has made me very reserved. I've decided the sugar; however, deserves a little more attention as he's been very sweet. He loves to wear pink, has long eyelashes like a girl, talks like a girl, and is just overall very cutesy. He made a funny face at me today, because he could tell I was bored.

I am thinking of throwing a child nick-name at him in return. Say his name is James. I would want to call him Jamesy. Or say his name is Thomas. I could call him Tommy.

I know Cancer venus signs and Geminis are cool with this. I am not sure about Libras though. And I don't want to embarrass myself or cause an awkward scene; his Scorpio rising already draws out insecurities in me I need to sort through.

Libras, how do you respond to random nicknames? Does it matter if it's from a close friend or colleague?

Err. Yeah, if anyone starts calling me Nicky, I ain't havin' it. haha

Nicknames in general aren't always about transforming one's given name into something cute. I've had people call me a myriad of different things throughout the years. Some not suitable for saying here, but.. yeah. Go with what he's into/likes and start from there. Nicknames should come naturally. I tend to do it with my friends, all to their annoyance.

But it matches him so much!! It's like buying your friend a cute pair of shoes to go with her outfit. And you know it would so match her.

I only know that he likes the food I cook. : ) I like the food I cook, too. I find I like food a lot in general.

Maybe I'll make him a cake pop with strawberry frosting to match his pink shirt. Hehehe.

In my experience all men like to be called tiger... Though it is an obvious flirt!

...But as all Librans like a good flirt/banter... You can't go far wrong ;oD

Be fearless! Grrr! lol

Hahah. That's some sweet advice there. : ) Thanks.

I'll remember it for when I find a Libra I like like that. : D

I don't want to give him the wrong idea...

Wait, would he get the wrong idea? Who knows.

I'd be uncomfortable with this if we're not that close. The only ones I'd be okay with giving me nicknames would be my hubby or those really close to me. You have to be part of my inner circle for that to be okay.

I would advise against a child like nickname. Aw look at little timmy he's so cute... No grown man wants to hear that haha. Kids added a y to my name to tease me, you wouldn't want me having flashbacks to "scotty tissues" chants would you?

Some things aren't explained like astrology. This is just personal preferences.
