I've been thinking lately ??_

I always and working my ass off focusing on the guy I like and impressing him. It's actually relieving for me when the guy I like needs space to be by himself sometimes. When I am with a guy it can be emotionally draining ??_



So actually, you're the one who needs space.

I guess you're right ??_ Hahah. I think I worded my question wrong. As a pisces I always seek emotional intensity, but I'm realizing that a guy who isn't super emotional might be best for me.

I think when a Pisces starts thinking like this is when she makes the transition from water to earth signs.I went from a passionate but suffocating Scorpio to a more pragmatic and stable Capricorn. Only to leave the Capricorn for another Scorpio. I learned something from this flip flop of feelings about the concept of trade offs.

My point is for a Pisces woman you make that choice in what you value in a relationship. While I wanted to get away from emotional suffacation, after a couple of years I desperately missed deep emotional connection. In the end it's all about trade off.

I've noticed that many people who like their space are private and not very open about their feelings or what they're doing. This could lead to communication issues or feeling like the other is being too distant even if there is full trust. As a pisces I like to fully understand my partner, and it's rather hard with this type of person. I don't like clingy people, either, since they are emotionally draining, but I'd say the middle ground is best. The way I know it's a middle ground is when I don't think "Man, I could use some space" nor when I take notice of his need for space.

It's lovely when the guy needs space to do manly things and not be cheater/ traitor. That is what the OP means.
Wants someone with a life of his own and to feel complete even if OP is not around while OP does her thing and has her own life.

I am not here much, is the OP is a she?. 🙂




Yes, I am. And this is exactly what I was trying to explain. When I first started dating I was very clingy and upset when my guy was busy - it wasn't healthy for me. I'm trying to figure out if having a guy who is affection a lot to match my passion is best, or a guy who is less of a romantic and focuses more on work so I focus less on romance.

If that makes sense haha.

I am thinking someone who is less romantic might actually be a good balance for me. By less of a romantic I just mean values work and his own hobbies a lot instead of obsessing over dating.

I agree completely. This is exactly how I am feeling. Glad someone else understands.

I think you can get both in a pisces-pisces relationship. It just depends what else is in their chart. Pisces both need their space but also crave a deep emotional connection and balance in a relationship. I think that pisceans with a lot of earth and or air combinations in their chart could be very compatible with each other. I.e a Pisces with a taurus moon and taurus or capricorn mercury could go very well with another pisces who has taurus and or capricorn prominent in their chart. The earth in the chart tends to ground and to some what add structure or shape to the relationship in the real world but at the same time won't compromise or hinder the passionate component . Like you said pisces and earth sun sign pairings tend to have this issue. One of my best friend is in love but bored with her Capricorn boyfriend. He's a really nice guy but predictable and a little lackluster in a lot of ways.
