    When this Leo gets mad he blows up n is very harsh. Before I used to go back and forth but I realized it only mad it worse. So now I let him explode. N then He feels like an asshole a few hours later. He tells me express how I feel but I told him when I do he has a fit n says a blame him for everything. Which I don’t only the things that are CLEARLY his fault. I told him everything always goes according to his timing. It’s when he wants to do it. It’s when he wants to see it. It’s when he wants to go. I told him I’m not making plans or anything with him anymore. If he wants to do something he can let me kno. This morning he hit me with “I can’t properly articulate what I want to say so i’ll call you later if you’re” I’m just sitting here thinking if it’s another outburst smh


    Well a few things: First (and most importantly_ this Leo needs to learn how to control his temper. No on has time for a person who can't keep his silly little emotions in check. If the Leo needs drama in his relationships, you should figure that out fast to see if this relationship is even worth your time.

    Second, running headfirst into a confrontation with a Leo is never the best idea, not because the Leo will win necessarily, but because Leos are a fixed sign (meaning we can be very stubborn and hard to budge). A Leo will hold to a point/idea/argument for a long time, which can be exhausting over time for the both of you. A Leo can fight tooth and nail over something we believe in, meaning if you fight us we may take you down with us. If you do win the argument, it may like a hollow victory.

    That's not to say that a Leo can't be reasoned with, in fact Leos can be very pragmactic and easy to persuade. Approaching a Leo's sense of pragmatism is the fastest way to win an argument. Even if the Leo is in the middle of a flare up, a Leo will calm down if they're the only one yelling. This is especially true if you're catering to the Leo's sense of self respect. Basically you don't need to be argumentative, just don't be a doormat.

    The biggest issue I can see here is that the Leo is looking for some push back from you. Leo's need a partner we feel is an equal. We don't need a partner who is confrontational, but we do need a partner we can respect. A partner who is too passive or indirect will seem boring and/or weak-willed to us. So if you feel a certain way about a situation, let the Leo know.

    If the Leo gets upset just calmly/sternly tell him, "While I'd like to discuss this, I'm not talking to you when you're flared up. You can speak to me when you calm down or not at all. I will not take your animosity or disrespect. If you're looking for a punching bag, you've got the wrong woman." Then stick to your guns and follow through with this statement. If the Leo continues to act poorly, simply leave. Spend less time being passive aggressive and make more of an attempt being direct/to the point. Libras may not be the best with confrontation, but being calm and persuasive is defnitely in your wheelhouse.
