Understanding Personal Boundaries in Astrology

In astrology, respecting personal boundaries is important for healthy relationships. Recognizing when to engage and when to listen is key. If someone shares personal details, consider their comfort level and your interest. Respectful boundaries foster better communication and understanding between individuals.

People keep insisting on telling me things about themselves and I really don't care. If I don't ask you a question about you, I probably don't care. I hate it when people decide they're important enough to tell me their entire life story, every time we talk!!!

It's just... there's this lady here at work that does it daily. Every time I see her she tells the same stories. THE SAME STORIES!!! I didn't care the first time, or the tenth time, or the hundredth time and I still don't care now!!! I've even told her I don't care and she still tells me anyway!

What makes you thinks that anyone cares about what YOU care or don't care about? Its irrelevant. Take the conversation and shift it elsewhere...its all about communication skills, whether you have em or not.

I communicate fine with people. I've never had trouble communicating with friends and making conversation. It doesn't matter where I shift the conversation. She still finds a way to jump back into the stories she's already told. I've never met anyone that does this. It's incredibly frustrating.

What about severed horse heads on the pillow?

Does that count?

Are you trying to communicate with the person that owns the bed? Or with the horse? Either way, yes it counts.

lol...stay clear of aries moons.

we LOVE telling stories.

the tiniest thing will set off a memory and we just have to SHARE it or the world will self-destruct in 5.3 seconds if we don't. πŸ˜›

We get away with it because people really find us interesting. But they will bitch to high heavens that they don't.

Actually...this comment is irrelevant cuz you're communicating just fine.

Who's communicating just fine? Her or myself? You're not communicating this very well.

I do let her ramble. I haven't been mean to her for all of those reasons. I'm just venting here to keep from saying something to keep from saying something to her. I don't wanna be a dick, but it's driving me insane.

Going off this subject, I also hate when people follow me around. Like I say I need the restroom and they walk me there and wait to walk back. Or when I get coffee they go too and don't get any. The fuck?

if you tell her about the severed horse heads....I guarantee she'll stop πŸ˜›

I met this really annoying girl that liked me once. And she would follow me around never left me alone. I tried everything to get her to stop. Finally I told her, "you have such beautiful eyes. I just wanna cut them out and put them in a jar and put the jar next to my bed so I could look at them all the time."

She stopped talking to me after that. Mission accomplished.

Remember...we're fixed-as-fuck signs. It's our responsibility to recognize our stubbornness and realize we can't enforce our views upon er'body else.

Sometimes we just have to bend a little.

Very true. I just have little patience today. It's been three years of the same stories and stuff. I haven't said anything to her because I don't want to be mean, but it get tiring.

The lady now doesn't hound me romantically. She's like 20 years older and married. I think she just likes talking about herself to me. I think it's like TS said. I think she likes that I listen and don't interrupt her.

Yes, this happens all the time with this one particular Gemini I know.
Quite frankly I give zero fucks about what she has to say about this or that unless it is something with substance or importance.
Sometimes I am too patient for my own good.

In case you haven't realized by now, Scorps have communication issues with all their partners.

They aren't big on words..it means jack shit to them. Which is why dating air signs is the stuff of nightmares for this sign.

joking..a little.

LOL ... Well, honestly, I love communicating with a male Scorpio with whom I've become close. Mainly because we DON'T talk a lot. He is very skilled with non-verbal communication and I'm fascinated by how well we understand each other and get things across without lots of talking. I like taking a break from all the chatter and just being quiet with him.

lmao!! there's truth to this. the watery drenched scorpio and the airy fairy air sign. it's a nightmare to behold. one too chatty and can't hear his/her own voice and the other sitting there with dark sunglasses brooding and taking maybe 1% of the convo he/her expunged is at least suitable for discussion.

I don't know...I'm a Gem and I also don't give a crap what most people want to talk about. I'm a good listener, and have empathetic facial expressions, so people can't seem to leave me alone. On my first day of my new job, I got cornered by 3 different people who told me all kinds of intense, personal things about their lives...things I could never DREAM of telling a stranger. I listen to make people feel better, but it would be a lie to say I care at all. Is it the Scorpio rising?

We physically communicate just fine. Our issues stem from her doing something and I can't figure why she'd do that. And she can't figure out why I do what I do. And we talk about it, and we still just don't get it. I seem irrational to her, but totally rational to me. She seems irrational to me, but it's totally rational to her.

So what it they're like your friend or something?
You still wouldnt listen to them?

Friends are a very different story. I hardly know her. We've worked together three years, but we don't see each other every day. But over the three years, every time we see each other, every single time, she tells me the exact same 3 stories. The exact same. Nothing different. Just the same stuff. It's maddening.
