I met my SO with Mars retro. We only talked online for the first few weeks and Mars was direct by the time we started seeing each other properly and things advanced to 'physical', but that said, the physical side is really lacking - not non-existant, but just so lacking in variety that I've practically lost interest, which is not like me at all - I'm VERY interested in that side of things.

I am really curious because I myself am getting ready for summer romance haha

I don't know. I just don't want to have any kind of talk regarding that matter as long as mars is still retrograde

I have a really strange relationship though, cause I've been with my guy long before it went retrograde, but we still haven't had the talk… I think we are already "in a relationship" we just haven't really confirmed it… so to have that talk now is just dangerous I think… making anything official or just having the talk is something I'm gonna avoid until it turns direct

The past experiences have been very clear on the matter - the retrograde periods have coincided with my disregard for anything romantic.

Mars rules my H7,and it falls in Aries. I'm self contained and introspective. Up-at gym-bed type of energy.

I've read that a fling or casual relationship that you had in the past could unexpectedly turn serious and end up long term .

Wow i just quoted something from a site about a similar situation, a casual/fling unexpectedly tuning serious. Good luck with everything, I personally wouldn't worry about mars retrograde.

Yeah, why not? If I waited for the perfect astrological moment to do something, I would never get anything done. I met my husband in person for the first time during a Mars retrograde and our marriage is amazing.
Btw they say it's also unfortunate to start a new relationship (heck, to start anything basically ) when the Moon is waning. The waning phase lasts 2 weeks in every month, so

With my astrology knowledge, I would be nervous about it.

I made my relationship fb official the day it went stationary direct or just direct. It will soon be a year for us.

I know another couple that made theirs official during Mercury rx. They are coming on a year together as well.

A fb friend of mine got engaged during Mercury rx last year, and are getting married this year.

I'm moving in with boyfriend during Mercury rx we have been talking about living together since the summer though. And I've been starting to move in a few items like my clothes and hygiene stuff already.

I know right! I was wondering if I should be concerned that I am moving out when Mars is rx. But seriously it is so rare to do something when all the planets are direct. I mean I co signed on lease in March, and I've been slowly moving things in already.

Also I am taking a condensed summer class from May 9th-June 29th. This is a retake class for me too. So to me it's kind of an unfinished business transit.
