I'm a Scorpio girl and need help approaching this matter regarding a Libra guy. It's clear that he's developing feelings for me which is not what I expected to happen. I also made it clear to him that we are supposed to remain casual. We just talk throughout the day about normal things, nothing mushy. Sometimes he'll leave a heart after a text he sends me but he does that with everyone (whew). But he's a really great guy and I feel like if I start talking to someone else I'll hurt him.. BAD (yes it has progressed THAT far). I REALLY don't wanna do that. I don't want to shut him out completely because I do want to remain friends. I just don't know what to do 😢 He does draw me in completely with his charm but I know what I want and a relationship is not one of them and he knows this. I know I'm not leading him on. I haven't given him hopes that are out of reach since we've already had a discussion about where the line is drawn.

Is there anything I can do over the next few days or weeks to work around his Libran personality that will cause him to ease off a bit? Or should I just cut it off to save both of us the trouble? He IS sensitive by the way and so am I which is the entire reason I want to tread on this carefully.. I know what it's like to be hurt and I would only be a hypocrite to do the same to someone else.

Any advice?

Well I am in a similar situation, a libra I dated in sixth or seven grade found me on fb he is a great guy and we have been on dates but sometimes he will send me texts where I think I need to put a end to our friendship but I don't want to loose our friendship since he is a great guy. How I kinda dealt with it is I told him that I didn't want anything serious right now I need some time to figure out what I want and get to know me, he said that he was fine with that but still a week later he sent me flowers to work. I feel like I could start to like him but I have to clear out my path first and we have hung out about five or six times and only a peck on the lips is as far as we have went or he has tried to go.

The good thing about this libra he has an aqua moon so he is very cool and collective and ok with what ever my decision is, so his moon is good but in a serious relationship I think his chart is too cool for me I need fire and lot a fire and some water in a guy.

The way these things often go...

Girl meets Libra boy and thinks, "Meh. He's okay." She doesn't dismiss OR encourage him, she's just not THAT interested in him. But that aloofness often triggers the charming and flirtatious Mr. Libra to shower the aloof girl with attention (along with several others, usually. It's just him being friendly!).. Girl isn't all that into him, maybe Mr. Libra isn't her "type".. maybe she's still getting over the last guy she dated, maybe she's more interested in some other guy. So when it goes several days or a week of not hearing from him, she barely notices and certainly doesn't get in a tizzy over it. She also barely notices that he missed her and drifts back after a few days to contact her again.

But Libra is nice, he's sweet, he's fun and funny, a good friend and good company.. so they spend more time together, hanging out or talking and texting. Then, girl realizes she's actually FALLING for Libra... when did this happen?? NOW she notices when he doesn't contact her for a day or two, is afraid he's off with some other girl or doesn't want him to "forget" her.. so she sends him a "harmless" little text, "Hey you, haven't heard from you in a couple days. Miss talking to you." and she waits for a response. Six hours later, he still hasn't answered, and she's feeling increasingly upset and hurt.. WTF is UP with this Libra boy? Why is he suddenly blowing her off and ignoring her? So she sends him another, just in case he didn't get the first one. Still no answer, and now she's getting herself really worked up over it. The next day he finally responds and says he was busy. She asks if he wants to hang out. He says he's busy that day too. She says okay fine, want to go check out that new place on Friday?...

Lather, rinse, repeat... until SHE comes to DXP and makes a post about how this Libra chased his ASS off until he GOT her, then he started blowing hot and cold and hardly answers her texts anymore, and is often "too busy" for her.. WTF?

So what happened? Did you see it, boys and girls? Did you see when it switched and SHE started chasing HIM? I'll give you a hint.. it was right after she realized she had feelings for him, and suddenly every single thing he did or did not do meant something to her. The Libra did not change, not really.. he was basically the same before, during, and after.. except for his natural inclination to pull away when being chased (pushed, pressured).. SHE changed, not HIM!

But Nefer, pushing for commitment.. He totally wants it. I feel like each end of the sword is pointed here. I mean, our first date: "I haven't been in a relationship in two years. I'm kind of tired of it you know?" When this was me about 15 minutes prior: "I just got out of a bad relationship a month ago. I don't think I want to go through that trouble with a someone else again." Did I trigger something in his head?!

Yeah, Scorp girl.. you can't backpedal NOW, you've already hooked him in (though if you develop feelings for him and start acting all insecure and clingy and CHASING HIM, he'll unhook faster than a runaway train!).. was just giving you a heads up for next time LOL

All you can do NOW is straight up TELL him you aren't interested in him. You MAY even have to give up the friendship part for awhile, if he seems to still think that's his foot in the door to the relationship he wants (Libras DO so love to mix love and friendship!) You CAN'T be wishy-washy about it, and you CAN'T do "relationship type" stuff with him.. like hanging out one on one (he'll see it as a date, you'll see it as friends).. no snuggles on the couch watching movies or hours-long text/phone/IM convos.. again.. you will have TREAT HIM AS A FRIEND and TELL him he's just a friend. And if it doesn't work, cut him loose and stop answering his texts and calls so he can find another love interest.

Man, you don't seem very Scorpy to me.. what's the rest of your chart like, I wonder? I'm thinking some airy, detached Libra influence.. maybe some freedom-loving Sag. Maybe even a Sun-Moon Opposition with Taurus. Whatever it is, you sure aren't drowning in Water underneath! lol

PS - I can pretty much guarantee with 99.99% certainty... you're very pretty, Scorp girl. Oh yeah, downright HOT, with that smoldering sexy self-confidence to boot. Libras just don't DO "ugly".. a pretty face is many a Libra boy's downfall!

Libras LOVE beauty. Some people accuse them of being shallow, but I think it's just a matter of being a little picky and wanting to be attracted to their partners. *shrug*

Though I did know a Libra once who (while dating and discarding a parade of beauties!)... was still TOTALLY hooked on his ex.. and no, she wasn't pretty. Borderline homely, with buggy eyes and messed up teeth and an oddly pear-shaped body (gorgeous long hair, though!)... But it was her attitude.. she was a Sag, mostly aloof and fun-seeking... and Sag girls seem to have this INBORN "I am the shizznit" quality, regardless of their actual looks. This Sag girl thought of herself as Da Bomb, carried herself like she was the hottest thing on the planet, EXPECTED to be treated like the Queen... and in HIS eyes.. was the most beautiful girl he'd ever known, and as far as I know she still has the key to his heart -- even though she's getting married next month to some tatted-up biker dude LOL

SPOT ON! same with libra women. . . plus they cant handle rejection its like inside they're like " fuck what? are you saying no to me?" and then they would every tricks on their sleeve that sometimes you cant breathe anymore ( and some people are masochistic by nature so it works everytime ) and THEN they do this STOP thing which sometimes is a libra trap. The Subject would miss every sweet ( but calculated and pre meditated ) move, attention that once strangled them coz no one else can praise like a libra ( yeah some of them are lies )so they try to give the libra a chance BUT how sure are you you didnt blew YOUR chance with Libra.

CUT THE GUY OFF DON'T DO THE STRING THING AND JUST BE SURE YOULL NEVER WANT HIM EVER IN THE FUTURE COZ HE WILL GIVE YOU ONE HELL OF A RIDE AFTER REJECTING HIM THE FIRST TIME.
