I met a Sag guy that I think is really smart, funny, and a little worldly. When he is being nice we have so much fun, but then he changes. I find him very hurtful and mean. I am overweight and I am not ashamed or hiding it. He feels the need to point this out every time he sees me. Tells me I should lose my stomach and then tells me if I am ashamed to be on a scale I need to do something about it. I think that is so rude and awful. I don't think it has anything to do with being blunt or honest. I have thick skin, but if you are not happy with me the way I am then leave me alone. What about all of his short-comings that I don't mention. I just don't understand this behavior at all. How does he justify acting/speaking this way? Then when I get upset he looks at me like I'm nuts. I have ended the friendship because I don't want to spend time with someone that wants to bring me down. - Let me add that he is the one that flirts with me. Makes no sense. IP: Logged |

Dump him.You don't need people around you that do not support or love you for who you are. In addition, I am sure you are beautiful no matter how many kgs/pounds you weight. Be confident, don't let someone with his own self-image issues drag you down. And don't look for approval outside of yourself, if you find yourself beautiful and treat yourself gently, you will attract those that think and do the same. Sorry if I was too blunt in anyway. I just wish you the best. IP: Logged |

You need to tell him that you are happy the way you are and if he's not happy with you he can move on! That kind of behavior is just not on and I don't think this is about him being a Sag. I had a Cancer BF who used to tell me the same thing and I wasn't even particularly overweight at the time. I just wasn't fit enough for him. He used to make me go to the gym with him. I was perfectly fine and he made me feel miserable about myself. Don't let this guy do it to you! It's controlling and as you say mean. IP: Logged |

You're worth so much more, than being with him. You need a man who treats you respectfully, supportively and who is caring. I agree, dump him and tell him to hit the road. Be secure about being single and alone. IP: Logged |

Sadly some Saggis are this way :-/ One needs a THICK skin with them sometimes. Really thick...but, there's a difference between mean and blunt. IP: Logged |

Thank you all so much. I was starting to feel like I was to emotional or touchy. I usually don't take things to heart like that. But I have never had someone keep telling me to "fix" myself. He told me he is just honest, it was his Sag ways. I'm like you need to learn to be respectful. I have already severed ties, as I don't need someone bringing me down and making me feel like a loser.

Being honest is swell, but telling you too lose weight all the time is just mean. Sags can be like that if they haven't evolved yet and if they think they know better than the rest of the world (which happens quite often). I've recently stopped talking to a Sag who kept provoking me on purpose to show me how insignificant and ignorant I was (his words). So I told him to walk,which made him livid, because nobody walks away from him and that kind of things. Whatever. Just forget about him. You're too good for that kind of behaviour and you should surround yourself with positive, uplifting people who'll appreciate you for who you are. You might give him a taste of his own medicine to see how he'd handle that. I'm sure he won't appreciate honesty as much after that IP: Logged |

Excellent! Well done. Only YOU can tell you what you need to fix (or not). We need people in our lives to help us get to where we want to be/be who we want to be. Not try to change us into what they want us to be. He's being controlling, not "honest".

That is a Sag thing, the weight. I've met very few of the males who didn't have an issue with it. It's like they're not mortal in that way. They just don't get it. My sister's husband was a sag who majored in physical education or whatever. He was a Tennis pro and later a tennis coach. I really don't like Sag men for that reason. They don't seem to have any insight or empathy on much of anything, regardless of intelligence. Utterly clueless. Funny, that astrological sight that claims to match you, can't remember the name, always matches me with them. LOL. IP: Logged |

Honestly....the Sag influenced people I've met and observed are insecure and being contradictory is a big (no pun intended) trait of theirs. No, I don't need any Sags jumping on me for this lol. It's the Sag-influenced people I personally know. The only one who isn't like this is a Sag ASC, Aries Sun, Aquarius moon girl. Tah-dah! I wonder why. Maybe it's that logical air moon she has... ???What's really confusing to me is how Sags like people who are happy with themselves, but then they say hurtful things like this and I feel like if you were to show your hurt by it they'd be turned off. Like, pick a side, man! IP: Logged |

You're clearly upset and he looks at you like you're nuts? Maybe he's a Sag with Aspergers. Does he have Virgo or Capricorn in his chart? IP: Logged |

Mostly when people point out "flaws" in us and criticize us for them, it is because they see the same flaws in themselves. Otherwise they wouldn't be so heavily invested. Some people look at their association with another person as an extension of themselves. So they start to dictate standards on how another should behave so that it reflects "well" on them. Stuff that In the interest of not throwing out the bucket with the water, maybe you should make a list(when calmer) of why you like to have this man around in your life? If the friendship is worth saving,telling him to "shut it" and stop hurting your feelings would be enough.Otherwise if he continues to be belligerent and disrespectful,you may say goodbye. Most Sag's I know cherish friendships and don't ever want to lose someone whom they see as "broadening' their horizon over something that they said or did. They may trivialize the reasons you are angry with them at first, but if you are able to make them understanding(perhaps switching the game on them)and putting them in your shoes,they'll catch on. I don't know what angle this Sag is coming from but as far as Sag men go, we can be idiots at times. But please don't give up on us. At-least not when we sincerely don't mean to be idiots

Every single Sag I've ever met was big on physical activity. Compared to them, I feel like a lazy idiot. IP: Logged |

I agree with others here. Sags can put on quite a show of confidence that they really don't have. To be fair I think Leos can be the same way at times. It's just handled a little differently. Leos go fishing for compliments, sags use a sledgehammer to pound you down. (I'm Leo if you didn't already know) This one sag sun/moon guy friend of mine at work would point out my gut before I lost weight and got in shape. I didn't take it hard though. I more saw it for what it was. Every now and then he would point out his own, but not often! Idk... His facial expressions gave him away. But then he would compliment me on a job well done on other things, etc. Invite me out. His comments never bothered me. I gave them back. Anyway... Knowing many sag's myself. I wouldn't be surprised if he actually liked you but your weight bothered him. He might have thought that he'd like to date you if you lost weight. They have funny ways about handling things. Blunt, but then hide other things. Hide thier vulnerablilities. Anyway, if it bothers you, then you did the right thing. I personally really like sag's a lot. I couldn't have ltr with them though. Ohhhh... There would be murder. Heck there's a sag with Leo moon at work that most can't stand. They love it when she's not at work but I get along with her OK. You just have to learn to brush off things. It's an important thing if you're around a sag. Some are different, I know a sag with Gemini moon (on LL) who seems very sweet.

How old is your Sag BF, may I ask? he seem to be really immature.Please do yourself a favor, and dump him. U guys only dating and he already disrespect and rude to you,imagine how he be like when you guys are married? Please go find a guy who treats you with respect, this is the most basic and absolute thing you need in a relationship. OMG, why giving advice to someone else is so easy, but when it come to my relationship, I get all clumsy and confuse, LOL! IP: Logged |

He is 42 years old. I feel like he has a million flaws, but I always over look that and accept people for who they are or walk away. If I am to fat for him, he should just leave me alone. Thanks for all the advice. I have not heard from him after I walked out on him and not answering his calls. He stopped. So that's that. I am aqua sun leo Moon. I went out with a Capricorn and Gemini guy and I got along the best with them. The gemini was a little boring to me. I love Cancer men, they are so exciting and sweet, but devils. lol IP: Logged |
