Aquaguy's right, T. YTA was just trying to funnily present it from a guy's point of view.

Nowadays, tho', so many people are "into" astrology, it really isn't a big deal.

My boyfriend, however, was not so easy, still wont ask his mom. Raised by devout Catholics he thinks it not so good. Says if I ever meet them I am not to say anything about my stranger ways.

I figured out he was most probably a Cancer asc, so drew up a chart for him, he is highly Virgoan, tweeked it out so his Virgo planets fall in the 4th, he is so darn connected to his mom, and family and the birthtime came out to be 2:30 am.

One day, my kid got frusterated with him and said "come on if you wont tell my mom, tell me!!!" He said he thought around 2:30 am!!!

Still not sure, but rectification can help alot. Had to do this with my own chart cause my birth time is sketchy.

Funny thing is, with the chart I have drawn up for him, his IC conj my DC within 2 degrees and vice versa ofcourse, so I really dont want to mess with it too much more!

When you are having a conversation with someone who is interested, asking their time of birth is not "loser alert galore"

And when you are a cool hot chick, guys will tell you whatever you want to know.

Maybe that's why it's always not been a problem. People - male or female, always feel comfortable enough around me to talk about it.

I don't understand why, but I feel such a compelling need to answer your questions. I shall do that honestly.

It was a tongue in cheek comment, but I shall now answer what is truly on my mind. Its not weird from your perspective. It is weird from mine. Right away, it identifies an interest in astrology, but that is not the issue per se. I find it highly inappropriate, akin to asking me the size of my paycheck or me asking your breast size.

I don't care if you are an Elite Model or Miss Universe, or you were some walking goddess, you ain't getting sh1t out of me because (1) when I was dating, I wouldn't have known myself without running home and frantically searching through my personal document safe, (2) I wouldn't tell you unless you really are my committed companion, and (3) I wouldn't be dating any woman who is that much committed to astrology such that birth time is a do or die mission. Like me for who I am and not my birth chart. You don't know who I am by looking at some chart. If you would like to form negative opinions from my chart, then perhaps it wouldn't be productive for you to see me.

Nobody has found it creepy and I don't have to bring up astrology with people I think might doubt it... nor do I have to let guys I'm interested in know that I am trying to see our composite

Another place to find that information, if they came from a small town, would be to find the local newspaper birth social news columns. They used to 'microfiche' (picture store on films) past pages of the newspapers. Send a request to their local region's library, offer them research fee, and I think some might send copied pages?
.. I used to do research in the past.
(Have used this type of service before.)
Good way to fact-check historic items.

This might be TooMuchInformation,
but just in case you were curious about archaic methods! LOL

If the family had been asked by a journalist they knew, the information "could" have been mentioned in an article about the birth of their child? You won't commonly find it in birth-notices anymore. I think smaller newspapers did, a long long long long time ago.

Geneology records (through some of these newest websites) could have photos of some birth certificates and records.

But if this is a person of your own age, (not grandparents, etc), they started doing extra security measures -- especially in the past decade. Identity thieves, kidnappers, can use what they find.

I remember when it was even suggested not to post a picture of your child, nor mention their names-- so that a kidnapper couldn't 'use' it to steal the child.
Code-words became important even with signing a child out of school, if you weren't the parent.

Good luck, CV!
