 Spill the beans... How did you meet your love (s)? Do you think that had anything to do with how it all got started (or how it all ended?) Include Sun Signs if you can.

Well through work with the LIbra and it takes a lot of effort because in the end there is always the work angle to deal with. I think it's very hard to get involved that way but with a 6th house Sun that's the way it is usually.I would try and separate if possible, the work world and personal but we are still trying. Work, Work, Work, and an art gallery once, once a trade show, and the best was on a golf course. You meet cool men golfing. The worst is through a woman friend, too many complications and histories, through a man friend is better I have found. Don't meet men at casinos. Natasha

Two of my biggest loves were people I met in other places. One (Libra) was a trip out of state and the other was while I went away to school (Leo). And the distance is what made it great and also probably contributed to it ending. Another (Aquarius) was someone I met in school here. That ended for lots of other reasons. lol10thHouse Sun and Mercury in Aquarius

I met Jase at a Midnight Rocky Horror Picture Show. I saw him and his friend standing off to the side talking; we kept sneaking looks at each other. I then walked up to them b/c I was alone and had never been to one before and said, "Heya - ya'll look like you know what you're doing (they were both in make-up, his friend w/ fishnets and a garter)...would you like to show me the ropes?" Jason put his arm around me and said, "Why, it would be my pleasure." We attended the show, went to breakfast, and were pretty much attached at the hip until he left for training.

Gloria, at the trade show it was an electrical engineer from Australia who was selling lighting for his company. The trade show center was right across the street from my condo. They had shows all the time, I always went to get deals when they had show shows, or make-up ones with friends who were women, and I went to the electronic and compter ones by myself. Many men go to those kinds of things, computer shows, electrical shows.He was a Gemini with Merc/Venus in Cancer
I have mercury in gemini trine uranus in libra which is conjunct my midheaven. Electricity and science is my thing too. I always feel chemistry with Geminis and he had a cool feel. We were very serious and we flew back and forth to Australia but eventually I felt unhappy with living there, and moved back. Venus in Cancer can withdraw when Venus in Aries needs warmth.

But how did it start? Who said what first and how did it lead to the exchange of phone numbers... you know? Cuz I go to places when doing my own thing, but if I went to a trade show or something, I'd probably end up being there asking a bunch of questions, or looking at all the stuff, being looked at by a bunch of guys, but then... nothing...
 Don't get me wrong... if I put a little wiggle in my giggle... did you like flirt? Toss your hair around? And what about the golf thing?... I sound like a complete idiot. I know how I must sound...
 But there's nothing "wrong" with me. If anything, since I moved up to Central Florida from Miami like 17 years ago, guys are intimidated by me, no matter how lowkey I am. And when I've tried to start a totally innocent friendly conversation, their ego's go overboard and so I try to be even MORE lowkey, but never get approached. I'm not like wearing spikey heels and tons of make-up or anything like that. I'm comfortable and casual. My last guy friend was GREAT... the Taurus, Aq Moon, Venus Aries... he got things moving in a straightforward way, AND he was extremely intelligent right off the bat, but casual and comfortable, easy-going... UH!!! .gloria ------------------

Heehee...Aphrodite, that's how I met the Aquarian and Libra I mentioned. In fact, they both made me so nervous the first time we met.  Not intimidated-nervous, just silly-schoolgirl-nervous.When I first went away to school, I was walking around campus by myself (knew no-one) and as I was walking towards the entrance to one of the halls, a Leo and I looked at each other, our eyes kept meeting and then looking away-it was quite funny. Well, we started dating. I did meet a Scorpio by accidentally throwing a snowball in his face. He then proceeded to tackle me in the snow and we were an item pretty much right away. I met another Libra in an art class (shocker) who used to bring me rice krispie treats/cookies every day. Ok, those are the fun stories I can remember off the top of my head. IP: Logged |

 Yea, I always smile when I think about that. My friends and I were playing in the snow with him and his friends (we had one mutual friend). He gave me his number I think, and asked me to call him. I said I would call later in the week. Lo and behold, the very next day he tracked down my phone number and called me. I was a little taken aback, but ended up not minding at all. I did roll around with a Cancer in the snow once, but you asked about 1st time meeting stories.  I met him in a film class. Damn, it's too cold here for snow. And no one wants to roll around in slush anyway. lol When I meet Aquarians, it pretty much always starts with some looks, and then maybe a wise@ss comment from them about something or other. We proceed into banter mode and it takes off from there. Similar with Geminis. IP: Logged |

aj - Never underestimate the wisdom of your body, either...
The two other guys that I can really say that I ever had a real, tootin', lastin' infatuation with...weren't approved of by some part of my body, I suppose.
With the first, a Gemini (don't know the rest of the chart) when we were teenagers, I puked outside the theatre on the way to the movie on our first date. We went out for a year and a half, but he ended-up cheating on me. With the second - a 3rd House Taurus Sun, Pisces Moon, Aqua Rising, with Gemini Venus when we were in our very early 20s - I actually began to get dizzy in the car, got a headache once we got back to my apartment, and then puked as I walked him out to leave from our first date-date (and I had known and been friends with him throughout highschool with no ill effects). We had a long-distance, but steady, thing for about a year, but it didn't work out...at all.
Needless to say, there was nothing like that with Jase - there was just a kinda buzzy-comfort, familiarity, and really cool banter (although he did get dizzy a few times after we kissed  ).
I think that I'll trust the wisdom of my body on this one; of course, it could just be my rather hyper-sensitive Pisces Sun going to town.IP: Logged |

After several past relationships that made me pretty sure I would never successfully mate in captivity, I finally met my dream man...literally. One night I dreamed about a beautiful black haired man with stunning blue eyes. I had never seen him in waking life. He was standing beside the path I was walking through the forest stirring something in a large black cauldron. I asked him what he was stirring. He looked deep into my eyes and said, "Your soul." The dream effected me so strongly, I phoned my best freind in Nevada the next day to tell her about my dream man. About 6 months later, I went to a party and the man singing on stage was the man in my dream. He was even wearing the same coat and boots from the dream. I went up to him on a break and asked him if he liked older women (he is 8 years younger than I). He smiled and said he would probably like me at any age. Our tenth anniversary is comming up in August. He still stirs my soul.IP: Logged |

What a great story, fish kitten!!!!!I too, had a dream about "eyes". It was lucid, I was almost waking up, and a pair of eyes that were very blue entered my mind. I kinda' questioned them, and I heard... "these are your soumates eyes" I had been going through a need to be centred and find my direction, so the concept of soulmates was like an obsession for me at that time ( always, really.)
I met my husband through one of my best friends. We had faded to different things in life, then we got back in touch again. I went out with a group of them, and he just struck me as some one I needed to know. It was magical... things kept happening that drew us together. We were very psychic together, in little ways. When we talked at more depth, we found similarities in our lives in the strangest ways, like things coming full circle and making sense. I was with someone at the time, but when I met him, that faded for me, and in fact I broke up with my old boyfriend on my husbands birthday... I didn't know that then....
My hubby was at our mutual friend's 'hangout' apartment, with his coat and shoes on, ready to go. He had gone there to go fishing, but something stopped him from going that day. He'd been hanging out by the door, ready to go, for like half an hour, just talking to his friend, and I phoned, spontaneously, cus I wanted to go out.... I really wanted to see if he wanted to go out.... and lo and behold, he hadn't left yet. We went on our first date. It wasn't until later, when I looked at him, I saw that he had these blue eyes and I was like "AHA!!!"
He was and is, so sweet and caring. Yet he can also be sexy and has a great work ethic. I'd say, he is the ideal husband. If I step back and really look at how fortunate I am, It strikes me in the heart. On a side note, I had a very young son then, and when my hubby came over for the first time, my son ran up to him, sat on his lap, and clung to him for the rest of the night. So, my son knew before I did. Any man who can embrace two people and fall in love with them, and choose to raise and be a part of a child's life, is a highly evolved man. I am glad I found him. We have been together for going on six years. It is full of ups and downs, as any relationship, and my tendancy is to lose the 'glow' and wonder what this whole marriasge thing is all about anyway, when there is such a world to discover, and people everywhere, but I just have to keep falling in love with him, over and over, because if I let him get away, I know what I fool I would be.

Ahhhh.... Hmmmmm.... Rolling around... BTW - How you've met Aq & Gem's is exactly the same way for me too! It's the best.
Proxie - Yes, wisdom in body is something I believe in. Maybe someone here has experienced this too, when you wonder if your standards are too high, so you accept some flaws, and then get confused as to which flaws to accept? Anyone?
Because I'm physically ill around crowds anyway, and being a bit of a hermit girl, when I FORCE MYSELF to get out there, my physical cues are scrambled. Help me out guys! I told myself I would go out this weekend and did I? NO!
 FishKitten - That's so cool about your dream. I have EXTREMELY lucid dreams and remember them all. There's a bounty of information I wake up to and scroll through. Thus far, whenever I've had one of the future soulmate dreams, when I fully recognize the dude, it just ends in failure
 So I must admit, I've not been attempting to laser in on "him" in my dreams because of fear. Thanks for making me think about this.
Pixel - Amazing synchronistic clues for ya there, eh! Love the part about breaking up with ex on the guy's b-day. Man oh man... awesome! You have the relationship I've always desired so much and have been SO not getting, that to a certain (and measured) degree, I find myself envying the power's that be in your life. The part about how the guy can embrace you and your son that way. HOW DOES THAT HAPPEN?!!!!
I'm actually getting teary-eyed... please do share...
All you of, thanks for all of this sharing so far on this thread. Please keep them coming....
You are all the loves of my life right now... .gloria ------------------

Hey Gloria, You're in Florida, right? Do you think there might be any outdoor evening venues that you could hit up with a girlfriend of yours? Maybe a concert or something like that? Friends can help you realize when someone is giving you the eye.  You can do it! I have complete faith in you.  IP: Logged |

I met both of my loves at work. The first one was at a GM dealership that we both worked at. The minute I laid eyes on him (he was coming in to drop off a resume)I declared that he was "my husband". I was only kidding, or so I thought. I was just coming back from a break, and the girl who was relieving me was sitting there, and he came walking up past the show room window, and she said "Who's that?" and I said, just joking "oh, that's just my husband". (I only said it because I thought he was good looking LOL)....Well he got the job, and we hit it off immediately. 6 years later I'm still entwined with him...although he hasn't become my husband yet. (other than common law, which ended last Feb....but that's a whole other story)The second one was our sales rep for industrial products, and I had the same thought flash through my mind the first second I laid eyes on him, only it was more like "Oh, now there's my REAL husband". But the reaction I felt in my stomache when I first saw him was a bit overwhelming to me, and he made me nervous, so I looked away and kept walking. (we walked past each other in the ware house. He was sort of smiling at me, and I looked away and didn't say a peep, just kept walking. "Ice Queen" is what he thought initially, but he found me intriguing too. (maybe more so because I was so cool towards him, which he's probably not use to because he's so sexy and charismatic)But, we didn't actually begin to talk until months later. Man, he made me so nervous. I always just pretended to ignore him because I couldn't deal with how nervous he made me feel. He must have thought I was a total bi---. Well, eventually I started to feel more brave, and held eye contact with him, starting being freindlier and saying hello, and then making small talk. He was always staring at me. Which is why I starting being more friendly. Then his company opened a new branch in a suburb and wanted him to manage it, so he wasn't going to be our rep anymore. We had a new rep, but he still kept dropping by. (??)He said it was to visit the buyer, but when he wasn't avialable, he would just stick around anyway, and start making small talk. He was having a grand opening bbq at his branch and he wanted us to come. Which made no sense since we were no longer in his sales zone. And he wanted me to come. Which made even less sense since I'm not the buyer.LOL. He made a poster advertising about his grand opening and he actually made a referrence to me in his poster.LOL. He actually put "Sorry, Wendy...no doughnuts" in small pring at the bottem of his poster!! LOL. Can you believe it? What a nut. I didn't believe him when he told me that, so he said "give me your email address and I'll email the poster to you" So I did, and it was true. Then we started communicating back and forth by email, getting more and more personal, and the innuendo started to fly....well the rest is history. Sort of. It's still being written. Nobody knows how this story actually goes...at least not yet. IP: Logged | |
