Some Words Of Advice

I've started my Third Year with my Beloved Scorpio, and I feel (yes, Virgos feel!) compelled to share some words of advice with my fellow VirGuys -- all from the school of hard knocks (maybe our best teacher?)...

1. Be Yourself - only be better! If she fell in love with you as you are (God help her!); then you know the baseline, so why not build up from there? I'm not saying change, but I am saying improve. She will appreciate your efforts, and isn't that what our much-vaunted service ethic is all about?

2. Be Open - as much as you can be. We are difficult guys to read, and we're reserved on top of that, so help her out some times - let her inside that big ol' heart. Even if it makes no damn sense to you (and, it probably won't) she needs you to open up. She must be able to touch you emotionally as well as mentally and physically, and if you make that too hard, she may just give up...

3. Drop the damn Sarcasm! She already knows you're smart, and glib, and witty... using your tongue to slice & dice her, her family, or her friends is going to score you points, but they'll all be in the red ink, and what kinda balance sheet is that for a practical Virgo??

4. Let Go!! Plans, routines, and schedules are part of who we are, but there are times when it will not cause a catastrophe to roll with it - gamblers do win on occasion!

5. Accept Errors. Try to shrug off your fuck-ups, and hers as well. It only matters when the same error becomes a recurring theme or a nasty trend. Oh, and for God's sake, don't try to connect all the damn dots all the damn time - not every event in life is part of a complex matrix that only You can discern.

There ya go, my fellow Virgos. Life is so much better when you keep it simple, and make it easy on yourself and on her... The world may try to complicate it, but don't dive in with both hands to help!

I think I love you.

Ah... Strings! Those were the days, weren't they??

Back then I was courting, and now I'm just another married VirGuy -- but I'm not complaining!

After all, it was my Beloved Scorpio who inspired me; and, it was my love for her, and my trust in her, that allowed me to open up -- let y'all see inside the heart and mind of a middle-aged Virgo man... I have to sing her praises, because it took patience and persistence to win over a know-it-all, slightly jaded, thoroughly comfortable with his status quo neat little universe Earth dude.

I also have to thank all my DXP friends who helped me navigate the uncharted waters of a Scorpio ocean. I probably wouldn't have tried it without this forum...

My wife and I are such different creatures! I think first, and she feels first. I challenge her with reason, and she stumps me with emotion. Yet... we work as a couple. Why? Because neither of us is afraid of hard work. Each has to give a little to accomplish a lot. That's why I offered up this advice to my fellow VG's. I hope they see the fruits of their labors of love -- the most important "job" they'll ever have...

Wow DY! *fans self* hehe 🙂 It's wonderful of you to share your words of wisdom with us

D'yer (theres a Led Zeppelin song with that in the title, and it always reminds me of your name): "My wife and I are such different creatures! I think first, and she feels first. I challenge her with reason, and she stumps me with emotion. Yet... we work as a couple"


Just for comparisons sake, what other signs have you been coupled with previously? I'm curious to see how your insight reflects on those pairings, Dyar. Your words always intrigue me to no end!
