Hmm interesting thought. I can tell you that the pisces man that I dated for a short while changed me for the better in some ways. He helped make me break away from my defenses and be stronger in my emotional well being. So while it never would have worked (says the pessimistic side which exists in any cheerleader optimist who walked away), I am very happy to have dated him.
For me I knew that I was never going to anywhere close to his ideal woman and he was entirely too old fashioned in some of his notions. I mean don't get me wrong here because for the most part I loved that he was old fashioned, conservative and wanted to be my hero. He's a guy that you can depend on (and hot too.) So many guys just aren't like that. I didn't even know that guys like that were around before I met him. However I need to feel equal to my guy in some ways and if I cook then he helps with the dishes type scenerio. I love pleasing people and especially the man in my life, but I'm just as smart and intelligent as any guy is (and probably smarter than most guys.) Wow that sounds so trivial right now, but when it comes to emotions it is the small things that matter.
He knew that I was smart and way to independant for him and it bugged him out probably more than it bugged me. He is way more ambitious than I am and he's proven himself brilliant, but somehow a piece of paper on my wall that he didn't have really messed things up. I am proud of my own accomplishments and I can't hide who I am just to please anyone.
And I moved on to a Capricorn guy but sometimes I can't help comparing them sometimes because the pisces guy wins on matters of the heart, how to treat a lady, etc. Truth be told I moved on to the Capricorn when I was still reeling from the emotional tug of war that the pisces and I were playing. I can't be overly emotional and my goodness in the end I was meaner than I normally ever am which to this day bothers me.
But I guess my nostalgia started yesterday when Mr. Pisces received my Christmas card and text me that he was honored... seriously who does that these days? But I'll never be as sensitive enough and I can't live my life walking on egg shells because of his hang ups (like he has to be the one to iniatiate touching even when we're alone and if a woman acts more wanton when alone it somehow means that she's not a lady.)
"you've never been drained emotionally, till you have dealt with a pisces."
That's because a Pisces makes you feel for what's more than just on the surface of life; perhaps a little more often, than not; i actually think it's wonderful. *To be fair, i think (every) sign drains in their own way. eg. virgo's constant fuss, worry and perfectionism, not seeing the forest for the trees, quite draining at times..LOL*
Thankfully however, most do look more at the BIGGER picture in life...*i would much rather be drained and challenged, than have something (too) easy, anyway..'that can be boring..'j/m/o 🙂
Virgo's are very limited in any kind of emotional energy, and if they recieve any from another person, it puts them into a meltdown situation, so that makes sense that they would drain easy .. you can't give what you don't have without feeling inferiour and inadequate.
Whereas Pisces are high-powered with so much emotional energy to give and take it's everything we can do not to go insane until we meet someone who can handle the affection ..
You've never been loved until you've been with an Aries ..
Aries are boundless, Pisces can draw on them and it only serves to ignite the Ram, rather than diminish .. because they strive on attention and emotional nurturing ..
A love match between the two could set the world on fire ..
For some reason, solitas, I haven't met any Leo's to which you describe. From what I've heard people say before, they have experienced this as well from the Lions in their life .. I haven't met one yet and I look forward to it.
That is to say - in person - there are a couple in here that I can feel their warmth radiating.
Hmmmm, lucky me then? Going through that for the second time. What about this difference though.... I have lived with a pisces guy for 7 years. He was a very nice guy, we never fought and had our little routine going. You know, me taking care of everything excpect for yard work. Me working 2 jobs, still running a household etc. He really never lifted a finger for me, unless I nagged, bitched, and threatened. I guess I had gotten used to it until I found out there are guys who take care of their girls, so I moved out and on.
A few years later, now, I ran into another pisces who seems to be the complete opposite of the first one. He treats me like a princess, brought over roses, champagne and chocolate one evening!!! HUH? Come on, I date guys who dont care and dont call much LOL. So this is really weird. I had to tell him to back off a bit. But he is super nice and considered and takes care of little things like the headlight on my truck. Hes visiting some family in Mexico right now (he had the trip planned before we met), but hes been calling me. Most importantly, he LOVES my little deaf pitbull. Even learing the handsigns I'm using. He takes care of him while I'm working sometimes. And I actually trust him with my dog, which never has happened before.
So things are looking great in fish world and yes i guess I have not been "loved" like this before :-)
I adore my pisces!! I am in love with him and it is mutual. we are equals. we have trust and respect. we laugh all the time. he suprises me. what an amazing man. i have never been loved or loved until now.
