I was wondering if anyone out there has any dating stories that illustrates a typical (Sun) sign's temperment. Preferrably funny. For instance, I once dated a Virgo who was extremely self-concious of the fact that I was bigger and taller than he was. Actually, he was obsessed about it. During our date he actually had me stand against a wall and was going to mark my height with a pencil. Then, he asked for me to take off my shoes --I did thinking it was pretty funny. Using my hand to mark off my height wasn't good enough. He went and got a book leveled it off to get the exact measurement. Then he did himself. Amazingly, we were the same height, but then he realized he did not take off his shoes. I assured him I didn't have a problem with him being an inch and a half taller shorter than me. He went and got a damn measuring tape! I was a full inch and three-quarters taller than him and he demanded that I was 5' 7 3/4" not 5' 7 1/2" --just to make him and even 5' 6 1/2". Do you think this exactness ended? Oh No!! I asked him where a mirror was and he took me to one. I said "just look at us, do you think we look good together?" Trying to emphasize that this nit picking over height is a bit too much. Then he slid over a scale - yes really - he weighed himself then asked me to stand on the scale. At this point, it was getting a bit ridiculous and I stood on the scale - with coat and purse. After I stepped off he weighed my purse!!!and substracted the approximate weight of my coat to get my correct weight - I was five pounds heavier. It was a dark moment. Needless to say, I eventually walked out on the date and left him. IP: Logged |

 Kat! That story was great! You had me honestly laughing out loud! I've felt really crabby all day and that put a smile straight on my face! Thank-you! By the way... I'm curious now (big shock!) What sign are you? I'll have to think back on something really funny to add to your thread. Though, I don't think it could compare to yours !

Oh,thankyou Kat, I needed that today. I have had a very rough week at work and most of the rough spots have been with a female Virgo about nit-picky ways in which she wants paper work done. Some of it is appropriate, some of it is shamefully ANAL and when I read your account of this Virgo it made my day' I think I laughed for the first time ALL day and oh! so necessary. I am usually the one that is highly organized at work but this woman just takes the cake! And my apologies to any Virgo people here ( I know the Virgo people here are all 'tuned' up) Thanks Kat and I will have to think of a dating story to share with you soon. Love Flame  IP: Logged |

HiI'm an Aries and I have had two Aquarius men stalk me. 
Very scary and not much fun at all.
AND!!! Both of them said that 'we are meant to be together' ewwwwwwww
I was married to an Aries and we had LOTS of fun. The last long term was with a Gemini. Holy Cow!! Mr Non-Commitment.
Hmm Leos - not good
Cancer - unless I am a clone of their mum I couldn't win lol I would LOVE to date a sagittarian.  RP IP: Logged |

I am dating a Capricorn . . . Last Saturday we both found out that we like looking at the shoes people wear (I have a Capricorn Moon). We were stretching our necks staring and giggling. Then he started analyzing people just from their shoes! He called one lady, "Asexual" due to the plain black sandals she had on that nuns typically wear in Europe  As for the lady's date, he said his mother must pick out his clothes and shoes  He told me the rules to socks are that they should match the pants, and white socks are only for playing tennis. It was hilarious, because there was one wall of patrons sitting in a pastry cafe wearing white socks! I tell ya, if you are ever dating a Capricorn and want to make a nice impression---wear classy, beautiful, and well-kept shoes. IP: Logged |

Okay, here's one about a date that this Sun Sag had with a Sun Leo dude. Mr. Leo really does act the part. Very charismatic, regal and sometimes demanding. As we all know, Leo men can have some peculiar dressing and eating habits. Well, this one is pure Cowboy and ate like a ranch hand that needed to put a fire out. First, he was a bit dismissive to the waitress, but in not in a condescending way, more like in a "I am royal...don't you know that?" LOL Also, I think I was a little taken aback by his attention. He just looked right into me with the most amazing eye contact. He was also aware of others looking at me, but I think it made him somewhat "proud". When the waitress brought over our ribeye steak, she asked "Would you like any steak sauce with that". Well, Mr. Leo, being a cattle raiser as well, said in a very firm tone "M'am, you better hope I don't need any steak sauce, cuz if I do, then the coc*sucker was not raised right at all". She looked like someone just slapped her. I turned to her and said with a smile. "Now you know why we don't let him out in public very often. Maybe you should have served him on the back porch". He was mad that I did that, but he learned a lesson, especially after I shot one hell of a sharp arrow at him when she had walked away. I said "You are one of the most rude, pompous sob's I have ever met. How dare you treat her like she is the one that cooked that damn steak for you. If you ever hope to win my attention, you should learn some manners and for God's sake, stop holding that fork like your going to stake someone". He apologized to the waitress, but I think it wounded his pride. He also thanked me for being firm and telling him like it is. Sometimes Leo's aren't aware of the power of their words or the force that they exude, which some people may find a bit offensive  Kat, I had a similar experience with a Virgo. He drove me crazy with the fact that I am taller than most girls we has gone out with (I'm 5'9") and he was the same height or if not a bit shorter. LOL.....he didn't make me measure myself though. LOL He did ask me if I was ever sad that I was so big (?????? guess he didn't realize that kind of wording is insulting) I said "No, just like I am assuming you take your little feet in stride too". Hee hee, zowie...there goes another arrow!!! IP: Logged |

Alright, I'm going to try this again. Went out with an Aries guy. He shocked me! I have never met anyone with such horrible table manners in my life!! I know some Aries and none of them are like this guy was ! He would talk with his mouth full... food dropping out of it !! I was so embarrassed that I wanted to crawl under the table!! He got slammed on tequila and became so vulgar! He had it in his mind that he was going to come home with me!! Well, at the end of the night... I told him not a chance in hell!! It goes on ... but that's the jits of that tale!  Thing is he "WAS" so good looking. However, after that experience.. I couldn't stomach him anymore! Looks can be very deceiving! IP: Logged |

ok, this is me we're talking about here.After working all last summer and getting back to uni we decided to pay the updated uni bar a visit. On seeing a virgo girl i'd had a thing going on with at the end of the previous year and a bit through the summer i decided in typical Aqua fashion to introduce her to my housemates...but.... after saying "hey, i'd like you to meet..." her name just went out of my head and i _could_not_remember it for the life of me. After sitting there for about 30 seconds and undoubtedly turning the colour of a tomato i said "uhh...thingy..." and had to run off to get a stiff drink. that was sooo embarassing...... She was OK about it though. IP: Logged |

Hi 1Scorp, Ohhhhh, you poor thing!!! What a beast that guy was. I will say one thing, Mr. Leo all I had to say was that one thing that one time to Mr. Leo and he has really changed. Actually, with a Leo, you just have to word it right. When he does get a bit over-bearing or sloppy, I tend to throw out a "Hmmm, you know, not all of us can be as kingly as you Leo's, it would hurt for you to be a bit kinder to the others in the kingdom.". He'll smile and next thing you know...sweet as honey. He's slowed down in his eating (no more woodchipper) and he doesn't Stake his Steak anymore. LOL.....when I first ran his birth chart is showed his Ascendant was in Aries, but I had his birthplace as Boise not Moscow, ID. The latter changed his rising sign to Taurus, but he really has more of the Aries Ascendent qualities, right down to the rushing off into things like a ram does....head down, full steam ahead.
I went on a date with a Capricorn dude once. I was flattered that he has followed me to my friends house from work (I was a waitress and he was visiting a friend at the restaurant). That was until we went out and he said that he wanted to take care of me for the rest of my life. HELLLLLOOOOOO!!! I was only 19!!!! He tried to feed me Jr. Mints at the movies and said he wanted to do everything for me. From feeding me to giving me baths.
Yeah, I ran superfast....as fast as these big Saggie feet could take me. LOL

Well all, you've put a smile on my face also. I only check into this site about once a week and it was a pleasure to hear so many responses and get some laughs myself. It was too bad Virgo man was so critical especially since our venuses were highly compatible- both in Cancer and he was an excellent cook.1 scorp: I'm a cancer, leo rising, moon in Pisces.
Aphrodite: I've got a shoe thing also, but no Capricorn here. My philosophy is that most people pay attention to their face and body and then neglect their feet. If you check out the style and condition of the shoes it reveals alot about the personality of the wearer - fortunately I'm not obsessive about it.
Pidaua- Great story- I was visualizing one of those roadside Texas Desert Cafes. You know the ones that you see in the movies with a row of seats at the counter and 50's styled interior. I could hear the screen door squeek and slam.I kept thinking this guy seems a bit Aries to me. And Mr. goo goo minty boy - Oh my God I wanted to gag.

Yeh, Aries can be so 'clumsy' and not up to par.
I have known this guy  and seen him around for a while at a club we both went to, and one afternoon he invited me to the 'movies'to go later that evening.
We met at the time and place agreed upon and went together to this 'drive thru', as per my suggestion.
He didn't know how much it cost, but found out it cost more than he had on him, so I had to pay for 'his' invitation.
It seemed he had only one thing on his mind, and thus was restless the whole time ( all 15 minutes of it) when he suggested we go somewhere else instead ( I can't remember where he said it was ).
A short while later, I found 'us' near a building, which he said there is a flat that belonged to his 'friend', and we could go up, chat and have some privacy ( I found out later, it was 'his' regular girlfriend's apartment who was on vacation then ).
And because he seemed harmless and quite vulnerable, I didn't think twice, so in we went.
I thought we would talk like two civilized people, watch TV maybe etc, exchange stories.... But he went to the kitchen, brought some Whiskey on the rocks for himself and started swallowing it in one quick gulp .
When I complained of some back ache he suggested some 'stretching' exercises, and then all of a sudden he kissed me with vigor  .I was flabbergasted. It was so sudden and not even remotedly romantic. It/he was so clumsy with a cave-man attitude.
Needless to say, I avoided him ever since.
He still doesn't know why ...!  lette

I started thinking back a bit and recall a story from my teen years. I had a date with a Taurus and we went on a family picnic at a large park. At one point, we decided to rent a small boat. I was thinking --- row boat --- kind of romantic, maybe get a little cuddly...But being the slow to get it, Taurus and teenaged boy he was, he got a canoe. So there we are, him at the front and me at the back. To make matters worse,he kept complaining that he was doing all the work paddling - He just didn't get it. Also, me being the Cancerian I am, I brought cookies and lemonade. His stubborn slow to change Taurus nature did not like my lemonade, since I used a few oranges, and my chocolate chip cookies has butterscotch morsels tossed in. Some people just don't like anything new and different. Later, he decided to go fishing. I stood there while he baited the hook and fished. Oh such joys. I'm so glad I'm a grown up now. Now men just sneak a peek at the tube to check out the latest score or downright ditch you. IP: Logged |

Aphrodite,I had to laugh at your post about Capricorns and shoes. I am a double Capricorn. One year I was at a local fair in my neighborhood. Due to the fact that this Fair sometimes attracted undesirables, there were a lot of undercover police. I looked at this one man who was dressed in gang style clothes and said to my friend, "That's an undercover cop." "How do you know?" she said. "By his shoes." I replied. The gentleman was wearing some kind of penny loafers that were totally wrong for the outfit he was wearing. My friend still did not believe me. So to prove it I walked up to the man and said, "Excuse me officer, can you tell me where the restrooms are?" "Over there." He replied and realizing I had caught him off guard and blown his cover he just rolled his eyes at me while I tried to control my giggling and then told me to move along.  Heidi IP: Logged |

Randall was that laugh an agreement on the shoe bit?!I don't necessarily look at just the shoes. I look at the whole presentation. I like for it to all blend and look natural. I have a hard time with something that looks like it took hours of effort to look that good! Natural sex appeal! This Aries ..... !! BLAH!! He would belch too!! I mean, accidents happen right?! However, he didn't act like it bothered him in the slightest! I DID tell him about that after the first couple of times! I would shoot him a look and "hoping" he would get the hint!! Didn't work. So I just had to tell him that it was a little sickening! I have been out with Geminis and these guys are quick eaters though they have a few manners The Leo guy I know... I love going to dinner with this guy! He is a quick eater... though we share our food!! He's like you want to try this... I say "no, that's alright". He tosses it on my plate anyway! So, I share mine... I like that arrangement. Get to try all sorts of new things I've always enjoyed the dinner dates with the Geminis and Leo! However, it seems that I'm always the last one eating! They're like you're so slooow! I say "no, I just like to chew"!.. A Taurus was very rude to the waitress! IP: Logged |

LOL....Ms Scorp, that is sooooo true about Leo men AND they will eat of your plate as well. My Leo does that all the time. He knows that 1) I eat slow ( I think food is to be enjoyed, not swallowed whole and like a good saggie, I do like fine quality food..hee hee). 2) I usually don't eat half of what is on my plate 3) He always gets something different so he can finish mine. LOL.... how true. NOW, if you'd like to have a dining partner that eats slow and is very entertaining, I would suggest Cancer people (but sometimes they like the food tooooo much). LOL Virgo's are great dinner companions and they take their time...analyzing, digesting, etc. also, Taurus dudes eat pretty slow and enjoy their food, but then they are down for the count. Oh that's another thing. Ladies, if you are with a Leo man, watch how much he eats. If you are in the mood for a bit of "fun" later that night, make sure he doesn't get overly stuff or he will just lay on his back, belly exposed and purrrrrr, sleep, and mostly like make weird bodily noises. I suggest either something light or getting the fun in a bit later. OR, my favorite, the challenge..."I'll bet you won't be able to top last night with that rich food you are eating tonight.....you'll be sleeping in now time" .. Hee hee, next thing you know, he's eating a bit lighter and raring to go later. Then again, if the night before was so much that you need a break...bring on the rich food. Steak, potatoes and maybe even a slice of pie.
NEVER do that with your Virgo. That slice of pie can do them in and it will be Pepto / Tums and maybe even some Imodium.....

hmmm...I had a date with an acquarian recently who asked me if I had BOTOX injections in my lips! hello? is that your way of flattering me! My friends had a good laugh out of that one...I then met this gemini over a year ago through a girl i worked with...my initial reaction was that we would be friends..I had no other ideas of any other type of relationship with this guy....but apparently he had other plans.... He was an artist...and I'm kind of "artsy" myself...but this guy would just stare at my face and tell me how he liked the shape of my lips and how "cherubic" they were....and then he called my cell phone at 8AM on a SATURDAY to leave me a message and before he hung up he said "I hope you're delicious"!!!! I had to replay the message several times before it sunk in that he had really said that. Another guy..a Taurus..I only went on one date with...all he did was stare at me from across the table at dinner....I was trying so hard to make conversation...he didn't even eat his meal...when I commented to him that he hadn't touched his food he said it was because he was nervouse because he couldn't beleive I had agreed to go out on a date with him...I looked at him and said..."You better get over it real fast...because I'm here and if you want me to go out with you again...you beter start acting normal because I'm a normal person and if you think that this is your way of flattering me...it's not...it's annoying me....you wanted to take me out on a date and now I feel like I'm talking to myself...one word answers are doing you no good". So then he warmed up a bit and after dinner he took me to a bar...to me...that is no place to go on a first date...maybe a club..where there's music and dancing..but not a bar...so then he proceeded to drink like a fish...and wouldn't you know it...some of his friends stopped by...they were nice...so then I excused myself to the bathroom and when I came back he proceeded to wisper in my ear how "HOT" his friends thought I was. I ended the date shortly after that and never went out with him again. I would like to add that I am normal looking...yeah..I'm attractive but within the normal standards of attractivness....the men that I talk about above acted like I was the only attractive woman they had ever seen....alays seems somewhat contrived. My sun is in Leo but my moon and ascendant are in pices. I guess the leo in me makes me attractive to the opposite sex but it's the pices in me that really doesn't want to be recognized for this...well..I take that back...maybe I do...but not in the way that most of the compliments come across. The very best dates I EVER EVER went on were with a Sag...totally appealed to my Picean side...he used to say my eyes were like chocolate drops and my smile lit up a room....and the dates were fun...mountain biking...different restaurants...going to an Observatory at one of the big colleges here to look up at the stars through the gigantic telescope....sitting on the deck at his house eating peach sorbet wrapped in blankets looking up at the stars! going to a blues club, drinking some red wine and listeneing to live blues music. Ugh....just THE BEST DATES. Nobody has topped that...they were always so planned...like he wanted to date me and he KNEW exactly where he wanted to take me and what we were going to do...to me...that's REAL dating/courtship.

Hi Heidi and Randall,I was sick with the flu this weekend and had to cancel a date with Mr. Capricorn. He called and e-mailed to ask how I was doing and did my grocery shopping  Aphrodite P.S. Is it a good sign when he invites me to an Easter lunch to meet his friends? IP: Logged |

Oxychick, I agree with you. Then again, I am a Saggie, so I know all about that old "tactless" thing. Besides now days you just never know until you ask..LOL
Actually, it's kind of funny because my Leo has an Aquarian moon that pops up with some of the most interesting things to say. It really makes me laugh because it can be so off the wall and at others times so endearing. I love it!!!
