Well, being a Libra, I can say that at least I like to use sweetness to win disputes or to get something I want...but on the other hand, I really do mean it most of the time when I give someone a compliment. I like to compliment. As for this being manipulative...maybe sometimes it is, but then again, on the other side, there is usually at least some sort of sincerity in Libra sweetness--it's not usually *entirely* a lie. As for not wanting to face something...that's just how we deal with things. Libra doesn't like unpleasantness unless there are heavy chart influences to indicate otherwise, but those are the exception. It's easier for Libra to minimize pain and to feel better than to just suffer and then try to recover from that.I've known a few Libra guys (not many, but a few) and most are not manipulative unless their scales are out of balance; Libra ladies are like this too. Usually if a Libra is showing the negative traits (and this is assuming they aren't like this all of the time), it's because something in his/her life isn't balanced. Usually, we Libras love to please and we love to be kind to people. IP: Logged |

I've been in long term relationships with two Libra men. Both of them definitely flattered and sweet-talked me to "manage" me (Leo lady here), but that was just smart. I don't find them passive-aggressive like, say, Cancers or strategically manipulative like Scorpios. Since I left the last Libra I've had unconsummated run-ins with a couple of Scorpios. Now, those guys just actually SIT AROUND strategizing about how to get what they want from you emotionally. A Libra man often genuinely wants his Leo woman to be happy, not just so she'll give him what he wants, but because he likes the world to be beautiful and peaceful and decadent. I feel like the Scorps were more cravenly trying to secretly bend me to their will. IP: Logged |

BR Lucia, i agree with you. "Manipulative" is a very strong word to use in describing a Libra. That's why i said it should be "diplomatic", they just want to maintain harmony and to make sure everybody is happy. I am a Scorpio and my romantic interest is a Libra man. It's a good thing i am aware of both our individual predispositions, otherwise it would not work. I am also a Libra venus/mars so we get along well. (Therefore, i am more manipulative, shhhhh LOL.)

well i am a libran and i am always being accused of being manipulative... my ex was a libran and he was easily the most manipulative person ive ever met. you could imagine the combo (shudder). yes librans 'get' people & often (subconsciously or maybe not) employ this skill to play on others emotions and actions.IP: Logged |
