Two things that came to mind today

One- Do you all consider yourselves movie buffs? A good portion of the Libras that I know are always watching some movie or TV marathon and it can be anything and everything. If it's on, they'll watch it.

...which makes me lol because my Aries self has to have my interest piqued to watch. This group just doesn't seem to give a shit and will watch anything, haha.

Two- Wtf is it with the crazy ones never content with what they have, whether it be friendships or material possessions?

They get something, like it for awhile, then have to go bigger and better. Would this be considered the whole "loves shiny objects" bit many are prone to? ...just on a more drastic scale?

Or they have to make everyone and anyone a friend (note: this isn't the thing where everyone has to like them). ...which is fine and nice, but I've noticed that they end up neglecting or ditching old friendships for new ones. It's almost like "well this friendship has served its purpose, time to go make new ones!"

And please note, I'm talking about the dysfunctional ones that most come here seeking advice over.

The "normal" ones don't seem to do it on the scale these immature ones do.

Libra/Virgo cusp here, and yes, I consider myself a huge movie buff and will literally watch anything under the sun (documentaries, history, discovery, travel, foreign, art, you name it). Only one thing I won't watch and that's reality TV. Needless to say, I make very good use of my Netflix account. But I get distracted easily, so I can't just sit down and watch back to back episodes of something. I need breaks to do other things in between.

As for your second question, I can't identify with the friendship aspect, since I'm very loyal to the friends I have. The ones in my inner circle are people I've known for many years, and I do not consider them expendable. But I'm definitely attracted to things that are difficult to obtain; it arouses a sense of excitement. Libras love freedom and we get bored easily (relates back to my movie example), so we have to feel a constant challenge in order to stay focused. We equate repetition and normalcy to a form of stagnancy and even imprisonment. I have a lot of Libra guy friends, and some of them have told me that once they know they've won over a girl completely, their interest starts to wane. So never let them get too comfortable or they will have difficulty staying the course. Others have said that once they reach that point of comfort, their interest does not decline, but they won't chase with as much fervor anymore. I guess that's when the laziness kicks in. We're usually attracted to people who can keep us on our toes.

When I'm in the preliminary stages of dating and I get an inkling that the guy likes me more than I like him, my interest begins to falter. It throws me off balance.

I wouldn't say I'm a movie buff. I don't have any film making knowledge, I don't care about directors or composers. I do however, love the movies. I do have to have some interest but Netflix has shown me that interest doesn't need to be very high (though it helps if I am). oh and it doesn't HAVE to be good for me to watch it, just some interest.

I do have a great memory though, so sometimes it seems like I'm a movie buff. My brothers and I will run lines back and forth frequently from some random movies. We laugh but often other people don't get it.

As for friends I'm kind of the opposite. I talk to anyone but don't really invest much in, or call many people friends.

Netflix, a Libra's hobby haha.

I've noticed these two extremes- either they keep a small group, or just hoard friends. I've found that the latter usually occurs with those who are emotionally needy in some sense.

I'm not a movie buff. I just stick to movie genres I like so I don't really know much.

As for friends, I just keep a few. You're probably right, those that do that are just emotionally needy. I'm okay with talking to anyone as long as people don't always ask how I feel. I prefer to talk about that when I feel like it. Generally, I just like listening more than talking. Talking about me makes me feel uncomfortable. The only time I do that is if I know they can learn something from my experience.

The libra I dated was crazy in moveies, we went to the cinema almoust every week, sometimes 2-3 times per week.. whaat...

After 2-3 months I got so bored of cinema..

By the way Libras, plaes give advice on this topic! 😢

+1 on the two extremes. However, I disagree with the latter part. My ex was the small group of friend type but he was emotionally needy. Lol

Emotional needs =\= emotionally needy

But yeah I've been accused of that as well. *shrug

Don't watch TV at all, but I do have my collection of movies and series on computer. I won't watch just anything.
I like watching movies in company, not with anyone though, got to be someone with the similar taste/way of enjoying watching movies. Actually, now that I think of it, having a partner that enjoys watching movies in a same way, in a relationship that is a huuuge bonus!

Don't go to cinema anymore cause movies are crap these days imo.

I tend to re-watch movies that I like, especially series (like Sons of Anarchy, Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad or Faulty Towers, Black Adder etc.)

Yes....serious movie buff here, but I love love love classic movies, and I'm a huge Bette Davis fan. I pretty much have every movie she's ever made. Also love documentaries, drama's, old westerns, news programs and paranormal shows/movies. I love to read and research as well...especially when it has something to do with history, but I hate most of these damn reality shows though. Such a waste of TV space.

On the friendship tip..not at all. I have the same 2 best friends I've had for almost 40 years. I've met quite a few folks later in life that I've grown fond of, but I'm not a "gotta" have friends type of Libra. My need for space and personal time is so necessary that I am considered more of a loner aside from family.

I love nice things just like the next person, but I don't obsess over any material thing because most of the time it's not a necessity....more of a want than a need kinda thing. I've always tried to live within my means and if I can afford something nice, then I'll buy it, but only after I have weighed all of my options and pondered over it for days, months or shoot, even years...lol, especially if it's a major purchase.

I think the Libra's that require a lot of attention or emotional drama has not quite figured it out, but then again,I guess it has a lot to do with what else is in their charts. I am am a Scorpio rising and Virgo moon, so I dunnnoooo.... guess I'm just a ball of confusion for most people. Sometimes I just don't think people know how to approach me.
When I was younger, and especially where guys was concerned, never understood me and most thought I was emotionally depleted..lol, but I figured out that it was a challenge thing for me. If I wasn't emotionally challenged, then I wasn't interested or became very bored with the relationship.

I'm a huge movie buff! I can quite literally speak in nothing, but movie quotes. Often I tend to think that if I filled my head with useful knowledge instead of lines from movies I'd probably be rich. I try anything and change it if I don't like it. As for always wanting something better I tend to think it's the indecision that causes this. When you second guess everything you do you're bound to be unhappy with a decision at some point. But often it is a back and forth kind of thing. Plus we often find something out later after we made a decision that makes us question ourselves. More recently I said yes to an outing that I found out had turned into a double date (I would be the fifth wheel). All day I agonized over saying I wasn't going to go and finally just bit the bullet. A few minutes later I find out another friend (who is engaged, but he was working) was coming so I wouldn't be "alone".

yes! its me.

I don't watch tv . the last time I saw something on a tv screen. it was before 3 years......

but I watch a lot of movies and tv shows on my laptop.

and unfortunately. yes. this is me ...
I do that sometimes.

''They get something, like it for awhile''

... aaannnd ... BOOM! Enough!
I am working on this.

let me explain why we do this!
it's because we like to ''evolve''.
a libra is a perfectionist.

when it's too easy. it's boring.
we always need to be in challenge. always ''evolve''
and go further.
sometimes when I settle with a girl. after a moment. it's boring.
I chased her.
I seduced her with my charisma. she fell in my webs. she lost. I won.
now. what am I supposed to do ? ... lol
it's boring. not thrilling.

when a libra gets something he really wants. he doesn't know what to do!
the exciting part is the fight. the struggle. the chase to the victory!

but after ? he doesn't know !

that was my mindset before 2 years.
how I used to see things.

now it's more clear ?
