So spill all those flirty, tantalizing ways your loves have allowed you to see the fruits of your "labor" coming through him. From the most subtle silent gesture, to the biggest overtures...

With my Leo its how I sleep with him. LITERALLY. SLEEP. (the sex is good too but that is another story… )

He is the only man I have been able to totally sleep with. I take sleep seriously. I have never been able to ‘spoon’ or be held or hold someone when its time to really hit the Zzzzz.

My Leo either holds my hand or inter twines his feet/ankles with mine. We are connected at some point.

Now we have known each other for years and he has always been the only man that I could sleep with but the difference is that this time we are a couple…not just friends or lovers but not friends…or lovers who are friends…or friends who are fighting…

When we first started to try this type of relationship this time around (I am not a believer in past lives but my relationship with this man gives me pause…I was told once on this board YEARS ago that my Leo and I, our souls ‘hang out’ together if they find each other on the same plane of existence. He and I were hardly speaking at the time and I was questioning why in the world we were friends, why I was upset but not afraid of ‘losing him’ he wasn’t mine to lose but I also knew he wasn’t going anywhere even though he was in love like I had never seen him-and honestly won’t see him again, not even with me, I could say especially with me… It made no sense then it makes little sense now but we have always had this comfort level that you will have with someone who you knew and who knew you for a lifetime or two…who knows but I digress (Linda would not be surprised )

When we first started he would sleep close to me, actually the first week or so was bad. He didn’t come to bed until hours after I did. Not that it mattered but there was definite avoidance. The next few nights he was so on the edge until I thought he would fall off.

My feelings were hurt. So EMAIL to the rescue. I explained my position (hiding behind a screen-I email a lot at work..) anyway he slept closer like he did in the past. Kinda that “OK let me try this out…”

But now it’s different if I move away and he is sound a sleep he reaches for me and pulls me close and I don’t shrink away…

My Leo…hmmm….I’m not sure what his sign has to do with the issue. He would seem distant to someone who didn’t know him. Even to me I wonder. The Royal Distance…The Leo Vulnerability-when you are close to it is almost frightening…know wonder they hide it so well. My confirmation for my head –my heart already knows- is how he sleeps. When the guard is down…he won’t let me get far…No Leo Man can resist a Libra smile…besides, why did he stay ‘with me’ on some level…because I understand…sometimes it get Libra’s into trouble but most of the time we may not like what someone does but we understand…

OK this was probably no help but I loved answering the question.

What about you AJ…what signs do you see…

I enjoyed reading it very much.

Well, as you may or may not already know, I'd known him for over a year. I was already in a relationship and then needed a few months to get my head straight. And even then, I wasn't like, ok I'm gonna start a relationship with Libra guy now.

I'd known he'd liked me a lot for a long time, and we went through all kinds of stuff together as friends, but never crossing that line.

When we gave into each other (March 17th), EVERYTHING changed, and it scared us both TO DEATH. Sort of like the proverbial "Adam & Eve". You hang together until you bite the apple, and suddenly the nakedness changes all the rules.

I've been guiding him back towards the communication we USED to have cuz his Singleton Cappy Moon in the 1st House was ooozing with Tarzan all of the sudden, and it was extremely cute to me, but had to nudge him back (just a teeeeny bit) so we'd (perhaps) acheive the perfect balance.

He figured out what I was doing, and sort of hopped on board and it's been unbelievable. Things are taken at a slow and deliberate pace for a reason.

It's so beautiful because it's the true definition of "making love". The act itself raises things to a higher level, and then we try to match it by deed. Then the deeds hopefully lead to more "making love"...

That is the wonderful thing about sex. It can mean so much. There are times

When it sex is just about fun and its raunchy and all of that stuff.

And then there are times that are about communication on a physical, chemical, energy level that cannot be achieved any other way!

Then sometimes it is an expression of love plain and simple!

To share all those facets with someone is such a gift!!

Over the past month or so, it's become so much more like a real relationship. We function like two people who know each other SOOO well, and really care for each other. I guess I had such expectations when I got here, like it was going to be very easy and it was just going to flow like any relationship that had been going on for a while would. It was frustrating to me that it was taking time for us to understand each other better, but I've realised now that our situation isn't typical, and that although we lived together right away, it was going to take time to build itself.

The first 2 months with my Leo after knowing each other for 9 YEARS was like getting to know someone I had just met. I expected it to pretty bump free...No freer than anything else I had experienced

Isn't Love grand

Best Wishes!!!!

Gee what nice posts!! It just makes it feel like Spring (OK it is Spring but you know what I mean )
