I know the title doesn't seem all that serious, but I'm actually in a lot of pain. I just don't understand why I keep attracting men who're unavailable in some way..either emotionally or they are married, or if they are single they only want "fwb". When I was younger it didn't really bother me but as time goes on, I want something with substance and it makes me sad that nobody wants to commit to me. I've only had one long term committed relationship, any other dealings with men since then have been short-term. And I won't lie, sometimes I settle for the crap just so I'm not alone. But now I've reached my breaking point where I can't do that anymore. What is it am I projecting that gives men the idea that I'm not looking for anything of substance? I feel like men don't see me for who I really am or what I really want. It's frustrating and disheartening..I just want to know what it is I'm doing so that I can do the opposite.

Off the top of my head, I see that you have Venus square Neptune, and Venus opposite Moon.

You may idealize the people you meet, in terms of romantic relationships, or tend to have unrealistic expectations of those specific people? Not that it's unrealistic for someone to want to make a commitment to you, but maybe you're barking up the wrong trees, so to speak?

I'm just throwing that out there. I always make the disclaimer that I'm definitely not an expert.

Also, Venus opposite Moon could mean that you're attracted to men who don't actually fulfill your emotional needs (which you've basically already stated, so I guess I'm just reiterating). That seems like kind of a tough one, while the Neptune/Venus square seems like it could improve with conscious effort.

Venus opposite Mars would probably give you immediate appeal to others on a physical level?

My only suggestion would be to try to see your prospective partners with as much objectivity as you can. If they're not the committing type, move on.

Also, as your Venus is trine Uranus and sextile Mercury, you could look for relationships that are out of the ordinary, and involve clear communication regarding the relationship?

Venus trine Uranus seems like you would be comfortable with relationships that might not necessarily be status quo (like maybe not getting married, or living separately, or living fairly independent lives, etc.)

That's all I've got.

Your thread will probably get moved to personal readings, where other people can probably offer more insight.

I don't know anything about the textbook definitions regarding your aspects, by the way. So I could be way off.

What I see is Moon/Neptune square and Venus/Neptune Square. Moon and Venus are opposite each other.

All in all, a T-square formation in mutable signs Sag(apex),Virgo and Pisces(opposition energy).

Any time I see Neptune as part of a square, I suspect idealism and confusion(at worst).

The Neptune square adds a nebulous, dreamy, enigmatic and cryptic nature to the planet it touches.

So not only are you not sure of what your needs are(Moon) but neither do you know what you want from another(Venus).

What usually happens here is that you may project this confusion on to others and they may sense your undecided nature.

So they may project their own ideas of what they want on to you(which often happens with Neptune). And expect you to live up to them or fulfill them in some way.

This ends up creating an awkward situation for you where you feel your own needs are not being recognized(never-mind acknowledged).

But also where you feel an obligation to live up to what another wants(because you feel guilty that you may have implicitly suggested to being the person they they want you to be).

Perhaps this is the only way you believe/think you can be loved? Or perhaps see this as an expression of love?

I often see two possibilities with Neptune/Venus and Neptune /Moon;

1)You can resign yourself to a life of servitude; denying your own needs and offering yourself up(so to speak) in order to fulfill the needs of others.

Seeing the divinity of that love as part and parcel of what you are trying to aim for(Neptune/Moon/Venus mix).

2. Or you can aim to live out the fantasy in real life; experience deep, poetic love that does not conform to normal human understanding.

The latter being a very great leap and one that is likely to be faced with many disappointments.

So what's a girl to do?

I can't offer advise on what you "should" do. That is not really what is important here.

I think it is better to have insight as to why you do the things that you do. And perhaps a solution may spring up from there?

If we read it like a horary we would look at Mercury and Saturn. (On my phone so hopefully I saw right)

Mercury is in the 10th and Saturn is in Libra in the 2nd. First things that came to mind was that you're picky or fickle, and you want the best (no shame in that) but what if this leads you to meeting guys who objectify you (Saturn in Libra and in the 2nd, the House of Value) Saturn is also in Libra, so you'll have a lot of karma and lessons in relationships. Doesn't mean you won't ever get it right though.

I'll come back and edit, those were just my first thoughts.

You're smart though seeing as Mercury is at home in Gemini, and your Moon sextiles Mercury, and Mercury sextiles Venus. Maybe the message here is to use more of your head when dating or use your Mercurian traits since that seems like the strongest leader here.

My reply will be similar to what others already said here.

You are super romantic and idealistic (Venus in Pisces). It's important for you to be with someone who shares your life philosophy and ideals (7th house ruler whether it's Uranus or Neptune - both are in the sign of Sagittarius, also your Sun is in 9th house of higher self, philosophy, religion). You have strong views, your own life philosophy, you search for 'truth' in this life.

Now your 2-8 house opposition is between your Venus and Mars/Moon conjunction. Because your Venus is in 8th house, you will feel compelled to get what your want from your partner and not accept him as he is with all his faults. That's why it's very important for you to meet the right person, someone with similar views and values. Someone who you won't want to 'mould' into what you like. Otherwise, your Moon/Mars conjunction will get up and leave. This conjunction makes you very pragmatic and active, unlike everything else in your chart. It's this one thing that makes you ACT. Because it's in the opposite sign of Virgo, you don't want to play games. Even if your dreamy Neptune, romantic Venus and idealistic Sun will wait and keep the dreams alive, the conjunction won't. It has no patience. Your Moon in Virgo deep inside knows exactly what it wants. And when it doesn't get that from a partner, it either leaves, throws tantrums or remains unsatisfied.

On top of that Neptune squares this opposition. Even if it's not 7th house ruler, it's an element of this house because Pisces is intercepted in 7th house. So it directly points to problems in relationships. Neptune here is a problem and a solution at the same time. We see Neptune squares and straight away go 'unrealistic expectations'! I'm sure you don't think they are unrealistic and I think maybe they aren't. But they only become unrealistic when you want something you can't have. So if you meet someone who's not The One, don't try to change him (because of your chart it's inevitable that you will try!) and make it work. It will not work (I know for most people it will but not for you), you will end up being the deluded one, a bulldozer with unrealistic expectations. Solution - wait and wait and when you meet a kindred spirit - you will know it.

Other than the obvious above problem, I don't see anything wrong with your chart. It's not bad So you are not the problem, they are not the problem. You just haven't met your half.

Whit those neptune aspects I would try to focus more in general when getting to know a person... neptune is really tricky... everything will be cloudy at the beginning, until you reveal yourself more and more... so it's just about finding a person who is mentally strong and stable... maybe you should start being a bit more serious when dating, you know... ask some serious question like: What do you want from life? Do you want to get married, children? Etc...whatever you think is important in life.

Maybe they wont be honest with you completely though... but at least you started communicate. You need to communicate and not hold feelings too much back in the beginning.

I know its possible, cause you are taurus sun with pisces venus and libra mars. All very good placements for love and relationships...
