I am not family oriented.
I do not want kids.
I love the outdoors.
I need to be around fun people..I don't do well with homebodies.
I would hate to be a housewife.
I don't like mushiness. I wouldn't want a guy to be all sappy and romantic with me.
I'm very into beauty in all things--like a libra.
I'm a clean freak.
I'm not reliable or dependable..lol sucks but its true.
ALSO..my life doesnt revolve around getting a significant other. I get angry when i see people put a picture of them and their boyfriend as their profile pic. Like, don't you have an identity of your own.

The rest is true lol. I save money like it's the great depression, I'm moody clingy overly nurturing etc, traditional/conservative, quirky, eccentric, yep.

What about you?

i googled some stereotypes and here are a few that i disagree with:

--possessive
not really. people are people, not objects.

--jealous
surprisingly not. very rarely do i succumb to jealousy and when i do, it is within reason.

--mysterious
i don't view myself as such. i can talk about things openly. people just don't ask or are afraid to.

--vengeful
no, a waste of time and energy. i believe in karma, too.

--hypnotic eyes
mine are pretty ordinary.

I've been waiting for the day you say that, lol.

Thats the typical cancer female. My Cancer mother is vary much the same because of her saving all of the time, we have 2 homes and both mortgages have been paid off.

Anyway, I have a fairly diversified birth chart so I come off in many different ways.

I save for rainy days and I'm not in a debt position. Mostly because of my Mothers influence.

Unlike other geminis, I'm vary reliable, dependable and get the job done. I Despise people such as John Edwards that are polygamists. I'm nothing like that.

But, I will admit I can very pessimistic and come off grumpy in a Gemini style grumpy. I think some my posts reflect that view from time to time.

I used to as a kid, but I do not go attention-seeking. Others can have that damn spotlight, I'd rather be somewhere laying low. (Leo planets in 8th house)

I don't have much of an ego. (Dunno what placements???) Even with fire signs in my big three, I am not a "dominating" personality, except maybe secretly. but I am not some dictator. I hate telling people what to do.

I'm not social or popular. I am pleased with that. (Empty 11th house, empty 7th house, Saturn conjunct 3rd house cusp)

I DO like attention from loved ones. I DO hate being ignored by loved ones too. (Venus in Leo in the 8th)

I am NOT flirtatious or promiscuous. I don't feel the need for romantic love or romance in my life, though I do feel a strong need for friendship.

Cancer moon.

I am strongly childfree and am not a kid person, though I love dogs.

That's awesome about your mom by the way! wow.
I can see myself being like that too.

Sand, yes, pretty recent development. I used to read that snakes had zero maternal instinct and was like...wah eh?! me! no way. I totally love kids.

Then I started working at a summer camp where i have to take care of a toddler, and I'm thinkin "I hate you, kid." No wonder. Now this is why people don't want kids. And he's the sweetest little guy, but, nuh uh aint for me.

Yeah I am just going to compensate for my lack of children by buying uncomfortable designer chairs! :p they're like kids too when u think about it! A bit strange looking and expensive. Sometimes cute! JK of course!

It must be ur Leo moon too coz like ur a big kid ur self! I bet they like u tho coz ur pretty. I think they can tell better than grow ups coz they have less influences. U know they might just go by symmetry.

haha i like that...expensive (sometimes cute, too!)

They are autistic toddlers, and even though they're very very normal, they do have certain things like they usually dont respond when you call them by name. I am like a big kid lol, i talk to my kid in different accents and read him story books really animatedly, but i am really glad to give him back to his mom at the end of the day. lord jeezus! lol. I feel really bad, but i just feel like they're brats. lol oh well.

Regardes, thanks, but i'm actually not happy to be childfree. It's kind of depressing actually. I always saw myself as such a kid lover. Maybe i'll end up adoptin a little kid who's a mini philosopher and very quiet and observative for his age or somethin, haha

Sorry, didn't mean to offend!

But hey, honestly, it's not a bad lifestyle at all.

Whatever happens, I hope that you'll come to be happy with whichever path that you choose.

Haha... you can say that again. I'm definitely not the typical Libra, way more Scorpio than Libra. In fact, I came up with the username since I feel like I was destined to become a Scorpio (all my asteroids are in it, NN in it, stellium of personal planets in it). I have a lot of Scorp traits.

Aren't the air and earth signs the ones who are supposed to ignore/rationalize their emotions until they pop up later and explode? I've read that especially for air signs.

I always felt that fire and water are so emotionally impulsive that they will blurt out whatever they want to in the moment, no matter who it upsets. And of course, that can easily make things get out of hand as u can imagine, thats why we need the rational air and earth signs

Animals 'progress'. They learn more and more, they become more and more comfortable with you, the two of you develop a bond. My Leo dog was one of the best friends that I've ever had. My Virgo dog had really gotten so much less shy with my family and it's really amazing to see how he went from being seriously ill (parvo) to being at a shelter to being fostered to having a happy life with my family. He used to be really freaked out and afraid of everything; while he's still timid about some things, he's adjusted so well and I'm proud of him. He's a very loving little guy.

I just honestly don't like kids that much, really. I prefer the company of canines. I wouldn't go as far as to say that I hate them or anything, but I am most definitely not a kid person.

It might be a great lifestyle, but it feels selfish. I mean, i was a kid once, too. and somebody put up with me/loved me

Well, you're not selfish. You're acknowledging your own needs. It's not selfish to choose not to parent. Parenthood isn't right for everyone. Just because it's right for others doesn't mean it's right for you. It's also unselfish of you to acknowledge and accept that it's not for you rather than to do it even though you don't want to just because society pressures people to do that or because "it's what people do". Just because a lot of people have kids doesn't mean that you have to or that you should. It's not a black-and-white or one-size-fits-all issue.

There are other people, too, who have kids just to have one of a certain gender or to pass on their last name. To me, that's far more selfish than not having a kid at all.

Lastly, just want to point out that I'm not saying that people are selfish for having kids--just that they are not selfish for choosing to be childfree, nor does everyone who has kids do so with good intentions or fully prepared/willing to be a good parent.
