After having done some brief reflection today, spurred on by a post concerning a Virgo just stopping communication when they felt unappreciated.
I recalled my teenage years and even up to now, I occasionally get fed up of managing all my social relationships. It is because I take it so seriously and put so much effort in to each and every one, I occasionally become exhausted and feel that it's my "friends" turn to do some work, to match my level of interest.
More often than not, they don't... so I decide to gradually let the relationship die over time, lest they surprise me with some random spurt of interest, which is usually enough to keep me from forgetting them completely.
During my "fed up" time, I usually will not be swayed by their petty shows of interest. I just lock them off.

Aha! This sheds so much light for me. Thanks cajun.
Although I totally responded and everything, maybe it was't as much as virguy wanted or something...

.... people deserve chances. People fuck up from time to time, but that doesn't mean that they aren't worthy. The hardest thing for a Virgo, I believe, is allowing someone into their world. And when they do, they expect that person to stay in there and appreciate where they are at. And when that person doesn't, a Virgo becomes offended.
It's easy to point out somebody else's mistake, but every now-and-then, a Virgo needs to take a good hard look at themselves and how they treat other people in order to gain a greater understanding of situations. You guys a analyzers, but I think if you turn that analyzation process inside out from time-to-time, you will gain an understanding of where perhaps you *gasps* may have screwed up, or where your action or your inaction (which is more of the case) plays into how someone will react towards you.click to expand

Everyone has limits to their patience and tolerance.
Virgos do this all the time honey. We are extremely harsh on ourselves... it's baffling at times.
I hate making mistakes and whenever I do, I feel a "crushing" feeling inside, it's not something I can control.
Sure, we might not always understand where other people are coming from, due to our inherent logic based thoughts, but really we do try. We are, however, greatly inhibited by our lack of understanding for emotions and naivety.click to expand

I can understand feeling crushed inside, and being harsh on yourself, but disappearing on somebody doesn't make anything better. It actually makes that person think they did something really wrong to deserve that treatment, and it can be very damaging. I little bit of humbleness and humility can go a long way. If you care about that person, then why shut them out? How can they prove anything to you if you block them, and shut them away— And then when there is no way of reaching you— It's very hurtful to experience that, and you could potentially be missing out on somebody who could be wonderful in your life. But like you said, everyone has their limits to patience and tolerance....

As a Virgo male
I must admit if something becomes stagnant and pointless I will quit and head for the hills.
whether it be personal friendships with pals or even sexual relations with girls.
if I sniff bullshit I am off.
however to those I have decided to be loyal too I stick with them till the bitter end..... it's a bit of a contradiction but I understand it.
at the moment I am going through various trials with new people who have entered my life recently and am thinking....would I simply be happier if these folks were out of my life.

True.... but the difference is understanding and accepting where it is coming from.
It's also conditional. And I'm learning that Virgo's are very conditional people.
MAking a mistake is something that you can't control all the time. What you can control is how you go about "fixing" that mistake and making things better for not only yourself, but for the other person involved.

virgos are horrible lil creatures when they play whodini.
in spite of what has been said, there's no rhyme or reason to it. there's no justification for it. there's no rational thought behind it. it's actually the one behavior that reflects how irrational, petty and out of control lower virgos are.
i've had a couple virgos disappear on me in the past. the problem is, i knew when i pissed them off. with virgos i do it for sport.
it's so easy that it's fascinating. so i knew they'd disappear and i didn't care b/c i also knew they'd return. they need me far more than i need them...which is why they returned even when i didn't seek 😉
the closer you are to a virgo, the more irrational their disappearance/behavior/temper becomes. if they hold you in high esteem, they're more critical they are. so a stranger could poop on their lanai, but don't you dare rearrange the spice cabinet! next thing you know, the pooper is invited over for dinner and you haven't heard from them in months.
my best advice when they disappear. let them. if it happens once. ok. twice. warn them. three times. reappear all you want b*tch, i'm gone.click to expand

Wow Tubby!
Your analysis really sheds light on some arguments my partner & I have had recently. She's cancer with virgo moon & rising, and has a lot of the martyr shit going on. So far there is too much emotion involved to try to talk her out of valuing everything based on services provided. And what you said about the bar being raised the closer we are is so true too. I was trying to explain the concept that I consider cutting me some slack to be accomodating my quirks that same way I do hers, but she sees cutting me slack as doing even more of the stuff I tend not to do (most of our arguments involve housework). The end result is that she's piling up martyr points instead of finding a logical solution that leaves space for our individual strengths & weaknesses.
She'll also fall back on using extreme examples sometimes, as in, 'if I didn't do xyz, then we'd be living in filth'. Which is completely untrue, and doesn't include any possibility of negotiating a mutually acceptable middle ground. It's almost like she'd much rather have this self-inflicted martyr drama than be sensible and open to smart compromise.
Usually I deflect a lot of that, but I end up feeling inferior just for having my own way of doing things. But every so often I get annoyed enough to expend the energy to brick wall the nonsense. It's a good exercise for me, speaking my mind without going nuclear, but not very fun. Such a stupid thing to get all worked up about.....

Like I Told My Mother At Age 6 When I Punch This Kid I Dont Say Sorry If I Did It And It Hurt U Thats What I Wanted

out of curiosity, for the virgos, when's the last time you gave a heart felt apology?
i think lower virgos are incapable of uttering "i apologize" or "i'm sorry."
yes, they can acknowledge when they're wrong but to saw the above would be tantamount to admitting they're imperfect.
so virgos, do you have difficulty apologizing?



Posted by tubbyscubby
Imagine - if you can - not having a conscience, none at all, no feelings of guilt or remorse no matter what you do, no limiting sense of concern for the well-being of strangers, friends, or even family members. Imagine no struggles with shame, not a single one in your whole life, no matter what kind of selfish, lazy, harmful, or immoral action you had taken. And pretend that the concept of responsibility is unknown to you, except as a burden others seem to accept without question, like gullible fools...
what you think? lower virgos?



Posted by tubbyscubby
classic virgo bs. i mean classic. i wonder how many virgos have uttered just this sentiment throughout the history of time?
lower virgos are the anti-christ. they give of themselves...selfishly. your relationship will be structured upon what they have done for you. the number of times they've called. the number of cards they've sent. the number of visits they've initiated.
virgos play victim soooooo well.
the closer you are to them, the less weight/points you get. in other words, instead of the bar remaining the same, it rises...even to the point where they are unable to reach it. it is at this point that virgos take stock of their "friendships" and ask themselves if it's worth it to continue because they've martyred themselves long enough.
it's sad to watch them at work really. to see a rational, sane person engage in a self-dialogue that is utterly destructive.
lower virgos are, IMHO, rank amongst the worst of the worst when it comes to the low signs. why? because it's all cerebral. scorpios may have raging emotion but emotional instability can be resolved through talking to and working with your mate to deal with their feelings in a positive manner. mental instability, you need a couch and medication for that.click to expand

Just to let you know i was agree with u no virgo will tell u that this does not exist but you talk in a tone like we are the only ones that do bad.. It will only be logical that bad exist in everyone I think the real issue is that us as virgos don't think our bad side is as bad as others.. But of course thats our opinion. Virgo life mission is not to care bc when we care u get things like what you wrote about I stop caring along time ago.. Now I give what ever a person gives me if I feel like I can give more i will..I ask about virgo female bc they show more of the shadow form than the males.. I know alot of virgo females that are hated by the same sex..


Like I said before, our emotional infancy, is a handicap. I don't fully understand emotions.
Without a doubt, I am Sweet P. 🙂
Yes, this is universal wisdom. However, the practice is harder than the preach.
That's the whole point!
And if anyone in my circle gets it, they sure as hell deserve it!
If you reread my original post, I clearly state they can atone themselves, but rarely do.
Indeed 🙂click to expand

sweety, i once read somewhere that virgo egos rival that of leo. hmm...maybe yall aren't psycho? maybe you're narcissists? NEWSFLASH!!! your poop does stink. and sometimes, it stinks worst than others.
in addition, am i not in club virgo. you're supposed to take it personal. it's about you. feel free to come over to taurus. you won't be there long. we'll acknowledge when you're right, say we're working on it and send you on your merry way.
i make clear distinctions between the lesser types. the lessers of all signs SUCK! our goal in life is to self-actualize...to better ourselves. what i find troubling about lesser virgos (remember, you guys are about perfection) is the inability to recognize that there is room for improvement.
lessers spend more time saying, "i'm not not as bad as..." instead of saying "i'm bad..." if you want to be delusional and think that you're better than everyone else, fine. but even you can improve right? unless you think you're God.
i would love to help my VF friends who do these horrible things. i don't know how. cause even on here i see some of you exhibiting the same behavior. it's crazy.click to expand
