How many of us REALLY get played by people?

I think 95% of the time we play ourselves. When someone genuinely likes us/ loves us...we don't go around asking questions.

I just read all these posts (and have even posted things like this myself). Sometimes we need to take accountability for our own emotions and proudly walk on.

It's also okay for people to not want to date you. Their Venus, Moon, Mercury has nothing to do with it. However, we search for these answers, but they don't exist. No one owes us anything... we only owe ourselves.

If someone isnt calling.... its because they dont want to. Period.

I'd venture to say a good chunk of us ended up here by googling someones placements at some point. I do it allll the time to try and decode someone. But, its very simple. Someone either has chemistry and likes you or they dont.

I just think sometimes we need to be brutally honest with ourselves. Instead of being like "Oh, he has an Aqua Venus he's hard to pin down"..... Nah, he probably just isnt feeling you enough. And that's okay!

Nawwww, some people are really out here playing with people's hearts because they're damaged and don't know any better. It's 50/50

You dont think your intution tells you, youre being played? I'd think on a board like this a lot of people have a strong intuition.

I play with people sometimes, but I know they know.

I'm just saying accountability for ones own emotions, should we have more of it?

I agree with almost everything you said.

I believe placements do determine compatibility.

But yeah, most of the time ppl play themselves.

Oh yeah, astrology is super helpful in a lot of areas. I love it.

I just don't feel it out weighs chemistry, life goals, timing, etc.

All of us. And yeah, i agree (: i wanted to say that as well): more often than not - we play ourselves. 😷

People don't even come here for advices from what I see. It's mostly venting. They come to vent and they are given counselling/advices. Astrology is just a medium used by the involved parties... to convey their points better maybe or for it all to make sense to themselves n others ...like something to lean on to feel better. Nothing wrong with that.

it has helped me see alot in the past, but it takes time, even years. it's not something you learn over a course of one year. over a long period of time... you "get" things as it comes.

some of us are slower than others in learning too.

astrology is really amazing but it's not easy to learn, i think one has to have an abstract mind.

I know it is so annoying trying to explain to self why someone isn't pursuing, making excuses for them, like oh he is shy, or oh i know deep down he is interested but there is xyz reason why he is isn't making a move. Fact is he is not making a move because he does not want to. And people might say the girl can also make first move, but I think 99.9% of guys will not like girl making first move. Some guys might argue, but it seems like a guy wants the decision to be his, and maybe girl too wants to be proposed by the one she likes.

People don't want to acknowledge what idiots they are or have been. It's easier to blame imaginary shit, then to acknowledge their stupidity.

Add a cat or two, and you got a gaggle of them circle jerking each other off here. Cause if any of them really wanted advice, they would acknowledge their faults so they could grow and have healthy relationships. Or better yet, ask advice or listen to women or men in or have been in long term commitments, instead of listening to the gaggle of morons that swap relationships like underwear, but "love" each one.

you so straight up, no ice - love it !

it's just all a part of the learning curve of life - looking back, yes, I wish I knew back then what I know now but it just bees that way
