Hi again,

I have a best friend who was my maid of honor, a Scorpio.
She has been dating a Picses for over 3 years. He gave her a "promise ring" last Valentines Days, with no explaination as in "Will you Marry me".
She refused the ring. Last week he got down on one knee and "proposed" using the same silly ass ring.

Now here is the kicker. She has two teenagers. He said last time she moved out of a rental home, into an apartment that he would have them move in with him. He owns a modest home, but hey, he lives all alone there.

She just moved into yet another rental and that's when he gave her the ring and the proposal. Never did he say anything about moving them into his home.

I want so much to tell her to kick him to the curb, I've met him and really can see through his sorry stuff. She is so in Love. I told her that her kids should come first and if she has to wait until they are grown fine, but this idiot isn't for her.

Well that's it folks. I really want to speak my mind (Libra me) but I don't want to make her mad at me. At this point I really want her to think.

Hi Candle Girl,
I think that you should tell your friend your honest opinion about her "boy"friend. I say boyfriend because obviously heis not steing up to th eplate and being the "man" that your friend needs. If she has two teenagers she has to be above these juvenile games. I would sit her aside and tell her in non-judgemental way that you feel that she desrves better and tell her why you feel the way that you do. Explain to he that you are not trying to hurt her feelings or make her feel bad but you love her dearly and only want the best for her.

Hi CC~

Ya feel caught between a rock and a hard place don't cha? I know because I have been there myself. I have had two friends in that same situation. With them, I soon realized that no matter what I said, it was not what they wanted to hear so of coase they didn't. I just listened and when they did ask my advice I would reply, "do you want me to tell you what makes you feel good or the truth?" I would give them the reply they requested with no hard feelings and go on my merry way. We each have our own personal lessons to learn and sometimes those lessons need to be FELT in order to be UNDERSTOOD so no matter how much we pass along our experiences to others they are mere words waiting to be felt. "When the student is ready, the teacher will appear."

CC, do what you need to do for your friend so that you feel good about yourself and have no regrets. Best friends will survive anything!

My best to you and to your friend.

Thanks for your answers.

A few years back she was seeing the slimo she met in a club that we always went to. He was married, but said he was separated. I lowered the Libra Opinion on that one and we didn't speak for quite awhile. She eventually said I was right, which I didn't need to hear, because she is my friend I just want her to be okay.

I think I will wait this one out and just be there when she needs me.

I just want to know why we make such butterty choices in our lives. I know some of mine were awful, I even got married for 6 weeks once!!! Yikes!!

Take care,
