Posted by HermesVirgoSo you put "manipulative" in the title, and barely mention it in your post, then go on to mention other (perhaps equally legitimate) factors.
Hello,
Virgo male here. Mercury, 3rd House Virgo in my natal chart. I've been dating a Taurus female the last 2 years. We're on the verge of break up due to a few factors, but ultimately due to a relocation. She accused me of being manipulative in the relationship and putting her in situations of choosing me verses her other personal and social interest. We both have Sag moon, which seems to make our home life almost perfect. It's relaxed and calm, with a little excitement when needed. Sometimes we're even telepathic. However, we can get pretty tense and erupt. I blame it on the Sag moons.
What's the best way to deal with this growing distance or should we try to stick things out ? I've never met a partner that's so relaxed and calm when we're on good terms. Our living together seems like 2nd nature.

Posted by 81gemsI'd bet on the bolded because of the topic title.

Are you manipulative? Or is that complaint of hers something you're going to let go in one ear and out the other because it isn't convenient for you to address?

Posted by DamnataAn example of her saying I'm manipulative is regarding my relocation. I chose a city that works best for me with the thought she'd be fine with it several months out. Now as the time approaches she's expressing a need to stay and how I'm selfish for leaving her. She blames my intent as her being forced to come along. I asked her to come up with a compromise and she'd like me to delay moving for 6 months while she completes a personal goal.Posted by HermesVirgoWere you?

What did you exactly do and say?

Posted by HermesVirgoDid you consult with her before deciding where you would relocate or even talk to her about your want to move?Posted by DamnataAn example of her saying I'm manipulative is regarding my relocation.

There's other examples I could give. I don't agree in being called "manipulative". Maybe it's being persuasive.

Posted by HermesVirgoA relationship is a partnership. One where each party should have a voice. You making a decision without consulting her is telling to me. As your partner, making huge life decisions like moving away should be a decision both of you have together. You making the decision on your own is tantamount to saying you only value your opinion and her input is not valid.
I did not. I figured we'd both be leaving for new opportunities at the same time. I suppose to soften the blow I started looking towards a relocation preemptively. She seemed on board with it at the time. Now that I'm 30-60 days out for leaving she's asking that I stay. I'm not sure if its the actuality that I'm leaving or not but it's brought her closer to me. Her recent actions are encouraging. Now I'm contemplating do I go with what I sort forth or adhere to her request and stay.
Posted by HermesVirgoAnd maybe your response is sickening. Typical virgo spinning things around to make themselves look better, innocent, etc. In addition to manipulative, you do sound selfish as hell. And like a typical Virgo, you probably won't "get it" anyway. None of it.Posted by DamnataAn example of her saying I'm manipulative is regarding my relocation.

Posted by 81gemsThis is one of the reasons I made the post. I'm looking for insight outside of myself. The main issue is that I asked her if I should end my lease and also if we were okay to relocate. She responded indifferently to it and became a bit distant. I anticipated this as things coming to a close.Posted by HermesVirgoAnd maybe your response is sickening.

Now you asked her to come up with a compromise and she did. So be a mature adult and compromise.
You don't make unilateral decisions believing your significant other will just "come around" eventually, and NOT expect there to be some kind of resentment. For heaven's sake man, THINK!!! Use that brain of yours.
In another post you said you felt closer to her. Good. Take her feelings and thoughts and needs into consideration. LEGITIMATELY. Don't just gloss over them. And learn to start seeing your faults for what they are - faults. Don't put a more positive light on your flaws because you're somehow incapable of seeing the truth of how you've acted, and how you've been. You can look at your own truth, can't you? I mean, you are a Virgo, no?
Poor girl...

Posted by HermesVirgoIf you have to question it then the answer is clear enoughPosted by 81gemsThis is one of the reasons I made the post. I'm looking for insight outside of myself.

Poor girl...
We had all the traits of things ending. She'd be occupied on weekends or travel without me, etc. I started to focus on relocation and a life in a new city. Now that things are in motion. I brought up the compromise option. The next day she brought it back up and wanted to discuss the options of extending for 6 months.
I'm at my wits end and unsure if she's my soulmate and I should stick this out with her or if we were just for a period of time and its best to move on.

Posted by HermesVirgoYou have to take some accountability in how she is acting now. You essentially told her of your decisions to move, never consulted her about It, and then you thought she would just tow the line.Posted by 81gemsThis is one of the reasons I made the post.

Posted by HermesVirgoSo you wanted to see whether or not this Bull was still emotionally invested in you?
I wish it was so cut and dry. She displayed distance before me deciding to jump ship and leave. My relocation was a response to try and get the relationship going... or see that what we have was real. If we can both give to each other I'd love to stay. If she's not showing a high level of attraction or want to be together its easier for me to leave.
Posted by HermesVirgoWhat were the other factors?

Posted by TaurusBull1977I did ! I wanted to know if she was vested. We're both introverted (INTJ) so it's hard to determine if she's being distant or needs her own time. I wanted to either "fly or fight". Other factors would include her relaying on this sort of telepathy that we have. There's times when we're thinking the same thing or we know each other's words and actions ahead of time. Our aspects of Sun, Moon, Venus & Mars, and Saturn all jive very well. We had a convo when we agreed that it feels like we're married. I never experienced this closeness in a relationship. It was evident when we first met. My question is if I bank on this "connection" that we have or look for more overt signs.Posted by HermesVirgoSo you wanted to see whether or not this Bull was still emotionally invested in you?

Posted by HermesVirgoObviouly the telepathy thing is not working out for you... Common sense would suit you better probably.Posted by TaurusBull1977I did ! I wanted to know if she was vested.
