My Leo friend disappeared from me

Give him his space, he will be back.

I sure hope so, we've had a great friendship, just feels odd to me to just cut all contact for a while, I don't work that way myself :/
Why does one do that?

Aries do it too... we pull back and re-energize, think things through and then come back with our heads together.

Sounds like y'all messed up a good friendship.

My BFF is a Leo & she does this when she thinks someone isn't as into her as she is to them. You said you texted a few times though so....I don't know, I wouldn't give up because it's been 8 days maybe you haven't shown him THAT much attention in those 8 days. If my BFF disappears from a guy its to see if he reaches out....if it continues just make sure he knows you are still there for him but don't overdo it.

If after all of that...he still doesn't come around, he's pushing you away because he doesn't feel good enough. Leos like attention & need to know they are wanted and cared for but with his placements he may just be overly cautious.

Actually, you may be right about the second part, because I know he has high morals and wants to be liked by people and doesn't want to hurt anyone, and he can get pretty emotional and upset when he feels like he HAS or people don't want him around.. he told me the last part only two weeks ago because he had some sort of an argument with a friend, apparently.

Wow, are you desperate?

He is busy. If you can't trust him when he is busy, how will you trust him other times?

These doubts you're allowing into you will mess it up rather than help you.

Obviously, you are desperate. He will feel it, think you'll try to hold him back from his progress and then truly disappear.

Get busy yourself... don't badger him.
All these people saying he wants/needs attention. Try getting between a Leo man and his project and see what happens.

Haha no, trust me, usually, if someone doesn't want to talk to me, I'm not interested in talking to me. It just came so suddenly to me, he's always had projects going and is working full time, and trust me once again, it has never stopped him before from having time for me, he's been incredibly attentive to me, though I must admit, I may have been spoilt with daily messages and attention.
I do realise everyone has a life on the side, and I'm not badgering him, I haven't said a word to him in 8 days. Is that badgering to you?

* talking to THEM, obviously.

I say reach out, its been 8 days. Say "Hey wanting you to know I miss your beautiful face" and see what happens.

Yeah, I just feel a bit self conscious since I know I've been the one who's texted the last couple of times and he's the one who stopped replying.. I should mention that we've always had a very 50/50 relationship up until now. He's not paying any attention to anything on FB or anything like that either, it's like he's vanished right now, except you can see him online.

And no, I wouldn't say that's me being desperate - that's me being in love with someone and you do tend to notice everything that the other person does during that first intense infatuation period. At least I know I do.

I gave him a way out and I said that he should just tell me if he changed his mind ...

changed his mind about what?

Sounds to me like you must be putting pressure on him, regardless of how false your words are in here when you try to convince us that you're not desperate .....

If there is something for the mind to have a change on ... then that means you are giving him some kind of ultimatum.

And what do you mean by a way out?

If I messed this up, then why didn't he back out when I gave him the chance?

He says he hasn't changed his mind, though that was two weeks ago

And here it is again ..... you've given him a way out of what? And again, you talk about a changing of the mind.



The only logical conclusion I can come up with here is that since you've caught feelings, you are putting pressure on him to feel the same. And when he didn't come forward with confirming that his feelings are the same as yours, you must have told him he can leave if he wants or he can change his mind and decide to want you the way you want him.

And it sounds like leaving is what he wants, since you have put pressure on him to decide.



I can't make out any other reason why you would say this twice. Unless there is something else in here that describes what you mean when you say he can change his mind and/or a way out for him.


A way out? really? That sounds awefully forceful.

Maybe you should take several giant steps backwards here .... because you sound very demanding of him.

Say "Hey wanting you to know I miss your beautiful face" and see what happens.

dude really?

So, just forgo any rational thought as to what is actually happening here .... to just stroke his ego?


leave it to an Aries to be this vain

She wanted an answer, are you telling me thats not the best way to get one from a Leo— lol

I'm not trying to sound false, and I don't think I'm being desperate either, that's a bit rude of you to say so :/

I have a life on my own, my own friends, my own career, and there are other guys to date out there - but yeah, this one was actually special to me, so there.. sorry if that makes me sound desperate then.
