What aspects would be responsible for this kind of behavior? (I was wondering whether it is a Sagittarian thing)Basically – on the one hand this person makes everything seem rosy and perfect and they promise several positive, happy things… On the other hand – it’s kind of like signing a contract… because at the end of their “positivity” they add in disclaimers. They might not explicitly say it – but this is the general pattern.. First there’s the promise.. For example: “I promise to love you forever more!” Then.. the disclaimer: “Mr Sagittarius shall not, under any circumstances, be liable for any direct, consequential, incidental, indirect or special damages of any kind – or any damages whatsoever – including without limitation those arising from any decision made or action taken by Ms. Aries, in reliance upon the content of Mr. Sagittarius’ promises.” It kinda kills the moment.

I read Sagittarius likes to have freedom. Could it have something to do with that?IP: Logged |

That just sounds honest to me (which is, after all, a pretty typical Sag trait).Would you rather they say they'll definitely be around FOREVER...and then feel like crap it that works out to not be the case? I'd prefer to get a disclaimer than an over-the-top promise that can't be kept.

I'd rather them say nothing at all - and go with the flow of life.. and whatever happens - happens. I find this really paranoid. I mean if I FEEL something today - then I'll be honest and tell the person how I feel. If things change tomorrow - and one of us or both us get hurt - then whatever - such is life! sh*t happens.

I can see your point, Odette. If they don't really want something why even bring it up in the first place? IP: Logged |
