Lately, I feel like men love and admire me and tell me so often. Sometimes so often that it makes me uncomfortable. However, none of these men want to be with me. As I perceive it, they don't want to do what it takes to be with me.

I decided to take a look at the story of Psyche and Eros, once again. I came across a portion of the story that struck a chord deep within me:

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psyche_%28mythology%29

... all continue to admire and praise Psyche's beauty, but none desire her as a wife ... for her beauty is so great that she is not meant for (mortal) man.

Can we say story of my LIFE!?
I'm not short on the admiration of men or men who THINK they want to be with me. Only to end up in some strange situation where they put me on a pedestal and see themselves as unworthy or not good enough to be with me.

I realize that this sounds quite vain and conceited. However, I wish I were making it up.

My Venus is at 14'17"32 Capricorn.
My Psyche is at 14'43"55 Capricorn.
In my first house.

Its kind of strange because it seems like this could manifest as an internal conflict. Venus was jealous of Psyche. Could I be jealous of myself?? That sounds too complex to think about seriously. But on some level I could see how it could turn out to be a self sabotage type of scenario.

Anybody got a prominent psyche and can see how it manifests in their life and relationships?

This all makes so much sense. I've always found that I kind of intimidate guys and am perpetually single.
