I have this position with Venus residing in my 2nd house.
While reading about Venus in Libra, one gets all the usual adjectives: charming, pleasing, refined, sophisticated, polished and, well, sometimes, superficial.

What got me thinking was that Libra, represented by the Scales is famous for taking time to make decisions, meticulously weighing all options. I want to know if this dichotomy plays out in romantic relationships too.

Does one get confused by where friendship does and love begins?

Venus and mars in Libra here! Yes, I constantly confuse love and friendship and am utterly seduced if my lover is also my best friend.

Indecision? Perhaps. I feel a need for "harmony" in relationships and will often keep quiet so as not to disturb this. BUT if you push me too far I can get very angry. But overall, its a nice placement I think:-)

Dead on with the harmony bit. I simply cannot stand conflict in a relationship. Which is saying something seeing that I have Mars in Aries in 8th house, not to mention the Sun, Moon, Mercury and IC in Scorpio.

If the disagreement is over something really important then I'm game to listen to the other but bickering over things, especially if people get stuck on the same topic like a broken record is oh so annoying.

Venus in Libra here. I have no problem distinguishing between friendship and love, and never have. I either adore you and want to jump your bones immediately (that never sneaks up on me), or I just adore you and know it's going to stay platonic because you don't appeal to me sexually. But I agree with some of the descriptions: I have been told my behavior is refined and that I'm a pleaser, and as far as conflict in a relationship is concerned, I will try hard to avoid it, but in a long term relationship with someone who's already on my last nerve, I don't hold back that much.
