I have a friend, a close one whom is a Virgo and I have known this person for 27 years. She says she'll call me and she never does. She says she'll send something inthe mail and it never arrives. She says she meet up with you somewhere, like a street corner to go out and she shows up a half hour late--every time!!
It is typical of Virgos to not make extra effort, to not follow through? And take their sweet a** time? This friend of mine can't keep to her word.

Also, based on Virgos that I have lived with, befriended or worked with...these negative traits tend to be with female Virgos--the ultra criticisms, smugness, snobism, being uppity, not to mention being slow as molasses and a bit boring. No funny jokes with these people.....yet, I tend to not find these problems with most of the men. What is up with you Virgos— Some of you think you're better than the rest? I think not. Hey, NO ONE is perfect. But please someone explain this and no lame excuses. I always get them from my friend.

Hi Sloane, you describe me perfectly. You sure we haven't met? Unfortunately for me my priorites are different. I am always late and expect for people to wait. But once I get there you have my undivided attention. I am always told that I am sometimes a snob but I dont see it. However I am pretty sure that your virgo friend is the most caring, gentle, sweetist person that you have ever met. Are you two dating? If so, the reason why she is late is probably because she wants to make everything perfect for you. I wouldn't say that virgos are boring but they are reserved. Sloane what is your sign.....are you a Gemini or Scorp?

Hi Lady Virgo

No we're not dating! We are very close friends--have known each other for over 25 years. She's married. I'm not. Yes, she is a caring person but many times she has not been totally honest with me and she has a sneaky streak also. I am a Libra. She can be a good listener but her attention trails off very easliy--you get the impression that she has either short attention span. Mostly she zones out. So, there you have it. I'm losing my patience with her.

Hi sloan, I have a good friend who is also a libra. Libra are very dominate when it comes to opinions. They think that they are right and so do virgos. sometimes it is a loosing battle. My libra friend always wanted my attention because I was very nuturing and always listen to him. sometimes I will zone him out. Not because I was not interested in what he said but because he probably said more than once. Don't give up on your virgo friend. Also you state that you are not married. Are you interested in her? Just a bit?

Well, I am a gemini, but I have a virgo moon which affects how I deal with things inside. I have to say that a lot of people take me to be a snob and I don't know why? What exactly do you consider a snob anyway? Maybe you are mixing that with having confidence. If you had it, you wouldn't even notice it on another. I don't go around trying to pick out snobs. I mean, if someone wants to be one, let them be honey! Yes, i would say virgos are slow because of trying to make everything perfect. I think they are absent minded also when trying to remember appointments and things.

Twinkee77,

Didn't have the intention of ruffling your feathers. You don't need to get bent out of shape based on my thoughts--my anger is toward my friend of 25 years--NOT YOU. And I DO have enough confidence in myself. You're not one to judge. And yes My friend is a tad snooty but she's not as bad as some people. Her smugness and "I think I know better than you" attitude is truley grating--a trait that anyone can do without. I have noticed one thing though.....she has a bad habit of not following through with things--even arbitrary things and not being "on the ball" and this too gets on her husband's nerves as well. I've noticed.
As far as slowness and f****** perfection goes, she told me three weeks ago that she was sending me a little birthday gift and that it would be a "little bit late". Well guess what? It hasn't arrived. I don't care about the gift ay all--but don't tell me that you're sending something to play with my emotions--and NOT send it!!

To me, a snob is someone that gives the air that they are better than you and sometimes pity you--condescend down to you and it could even be in subtle verbal ways. Sometimes giving unrational critisicms are a hint as well--when they don't know the whole story. This friend of mine has a nasty habit of analysing EVERYONE and EVERYTHING and who said what to her, who did what and that it was wrong what they said or did to her, so on, so forth....I say to her: You gotta stop judging people. They're not going to be perfect for you and do the things that you want them to. You have to accept people in your life for who they are. I guess her expectations are unreasonable too high. But of course when I tell het this, I get that same smug response! AAaarrrrgggghhhhh!!

Well, im a libra with venus, and some other planet, in virgo. My north node is in pisces, which means my south node is in virgo, so i have very strong virgo tendencies. I often feel aloof, yet in a state of inner turmoil. My aloofness is often confused with appearing slightly snobby or superior in some way, when i am actually shy. I am never late and i don't like to be 'snobby'. Snobbery and criticism are strong virgo traits. Oh, i must admit, i am highly critical and slightly anal at times!

Although virgos have the reputation for being quite neat and tidy, i read somewhere that they can sometimes be sloppy. This rings true. One virgo i know is neat to the point of taking every crease out of the bed when he makes it, and another i know still has things stacked in her car (messy!) from 2 years ago. Its funny that they can exist in these polarities. Maybe your friend, Sloane, is the sloppy type. Late, yet critical...?!

I've found that virgos are often aloof and able to detach themselves from their emotions in order to analyse a situation. Interesting creatures i say.

Well, having a virgo moon, I have a lot of virgo tendencies. I haved analyzed the hell out of things most people wouldn't think about! I find that sometimes I have to find something bad to say. As far as snobbery, I don't look down on anyone. I am better that no one. I am working on some of my rude behavior though. I think if you tell your friend how you feel about this, she will be very pissed, but deep down she will know you are so right.

Yeppp. That's right Twinkee 77. But sometimes you have to hear the truth from your friends...it's what is known as tough love. I think that if there is a certain bothersome behavior that one is repeatedly exercising, it needs to be brought out into the open--even if one doesn't want to hear it. Otherwise, goodbye friendship.

On another note, I'm still waiting to hear from another friend--(A Virgo too). She is my best friend's girlfriend. (My best freind is a guy). She still hasn't returned my call--going on day 2. What the hell is it with Virgos taking so damn long? Picking up the phone is so damn simple. And we ARE good friends.....
