love alter-egos

so, everyone...what was it like, falling in love for the first time? what flaws did you expose in yourself...and what strengths came into play?

When I entered my first relationship and fell in love it felt like I embodied all of my Venus traits haha. I'm Venus in Leo and whilst I've always thought of myself as a rational, level-headed person normally, as soon as I entered into the relationship I felt I became the possessive, clingy girlfriend type I always thought very little of. I would shower my ex with gifts and attention but when he didn't do the same, I got hurt and felt like I was putting more into the relationship than he was.
And any time he failed to pay me attention when I wanted him to, it was the catalyst for a fight. It was like I became another person!

Anyone else have that experience with their Venus?

haha, that's kind of cute. i am slowly morphing into an over-emotional wreck. i cry when i miss 'my' cancer, and when he pisses me off i want to smash him up. so...so far, flaws- ugly temper and a crybaby. nice 😄

on the flipside, i'm much more caring and nuturing than usual. very positive and spontaneous. i'm wary of what's next...-_-

oh, whats your sun sign?

Strength - Selflessness...and I mean the real thing, like not wanting anything in return. More patient, more forgiving of human flaws like insecurities and possessiveness. Turning a blind eye when they're being bratty...is that a good thing? lol. The supporting, encouraging part of me comes out. And I'm classy, I never bad mouth him no matter what.

Flaws? When things get tough my bratty spoilt self comes out full force. I wanted things my way, and my way only. This leads to fights haha but I only get that way when I'm hurt.
