@VioletsOh okay Enjoy your laziness! @cchampliss Leos are too appealing, and this is a problem? Ohhh because they trine and captivate your Sag Venus? Threatening your independence? :-/ I know allllllllll about that. Just be strong and fight it as long as you can.  IP: Logged |

I have to say one more thing, not all Leos are alike, and not all situations are alike. My college boyfriend was a Leo and virtually impossible to alienate. edit, no need to elaborate really.... IP: Logged |

Mostly yes. The most recent Leo, my Venus fell in their 3rd house and it brought out the most sweet talking, poetry reciting, cuddly little centaur in me. I was nuts Faith! Nuts! I can't believe I'm talking about this especially since mercury retrograde brought this Leo back into my life again this past week. Anyway, Leo's are alright with me. Just that ego upkeep is hard work. IP: Logged |

Aw but you do it so well! I hope you call them "angel," "sent from above," etc etc too! It works on my Leo ASC like a charm! Good luck  IP: Logged |

Guess Leo guys only do seem to care about themselves...
Ha! My Leo ex pursued me long after the breakup. He had zero pride and wouldn't leave me alone after I told him bluntly numerous times to move on and find someone else. Being rejected repeatedly didn't faze him one bit. IP: Logged |

I'm a Leo woman. After a breakup I cut off all ties with that person. I will never speak to you again. If that person were to see me in public I would act as if I didn't know them. I don't see the point of staying friends. Yes it has a great deal to do with my pride. IP: Logged |

Female Leo here. We have our naturally "mourning" period, but after that it will be very hard, if not impossible to get us back. It's a mix of pride with the optimism/hope/future oriented focus that we will find a partner who will be more suitable and more worthy of us. (Not mean to offend with the "worthy" word but that's how we think, we don't like to waste time, we give it all to every one we care so that's what I mean...)IP: Logged |

Is this true if you're the one doing the breaking up? What if someone breaks it off with you and tells you that you're the one who effed up and aren't worthy of a relationship. That's gotta be a blow to the ego. IP: Logged |

It depends on the situations and also on how evolved the Leo is. Personally if I had messed up badly, I would apologize and admit it and try to make up for it if possible (the whole thing we are proud and dignified comes here). If amends wouldn't be possible, I would walk away FOR GOOD licking my wounds and sit in my cave for awhile and learn from my mistake. This would be the time when no one sees or hears from me, because I don't want to show that vulnerable side too exposed/shown. Edit: Let me add that for a Leo to break up (at least this from a female perspective), it has to be really the last resort possible. We are one of the toughest and most resilient females out there and can go through the most difficult situations for someone we love or to save a relationship we think (and here it comes that word again...) is worth it.

The Leo I broke up with, avoided me for months afterwards. I never knew they felt so strongly towards me but they hid it well. They seemed like they were fine, going out, drinking and hanging out with friends, but of course sending messages to me and stuff. Just recently they came back around telling me they loved me and cared for me and all this stuff but I have had it really. I think it was a tough loss for both of us. Sometimes you can't make it work and in all honesty, had they just been like upfront about being so hurt before, I would've acted differently. But no. Too much pride. IP: Logged |

Yup, that's normal reaction. Only a very close friend will know the pain we go through (when it's a hard break up), but in social settings we don't let it show. Sometimes that could be the pride playing games too like "see how well I am without you" type of thing, but in reality we are hurting. IP: Logged |

Well I didn't know and that sucks. I was very much in love. Thank you for the insight. Quite a bit of peace I just found here.

This is normally how I am with people I want no part of as well, but I can't help but feel it's digging into childish behaviour territory. However, people have to keep in mind that we are mostly kids at heart, and just want to be in an honest relationship. Some leos overstep their bounds in an earnest desire for happinesd and have to be reminded to tone it down. IP: Logged |

Dont say that, you know all people want to do is beat the spirit out of leos because our life force is so strong. Youre really a leo saying something like that?
That we should be reminded to tone it down? I call imposter. If you are one we should be able to file papers to have you expelled from our team. IP: Logged |

That sounds like me, I have Leo IC. I thought the whole being completely done with someone was my Scorpio Moon. IP: Logged |

lol... I laughed when I saw the posts. Guilty of cutting ppl out of my life, esp ex bfs.There was this Scopio ex who dumped me after I found out he got his previous gf pregnant. I thought I should b the one doing the dumping but he beat me to it cos he got caught. I cut off all ties with him including ties with all common friends.  Could b more than Leo sun at work.. May b the Mars Pluto conjunction at work. I don't see the need to keep in contact with people who hurt you.

Anytime I had cut off the Leo guy I was involved with he would disappear for months afterwards, he never acted like he cared. He would do all of that only to send me some long letter or beg me back later. He would always reveal he had been stalking me the entire time he was away and he really did do this. I even remember this time when I was outside sitting on a bench when I noticed him nearby. He came over and I said it was a coincidence we were in the same place/same time and he was like "it's not a coincidence, I saw you at (insert location here) and followed you". Co-workers would tell me "some guy" showed up looking for me, etc. When I finally cut him off for good he sent me an e-mail almost a year later saying "I would like to talk to you and I would like a yes I would like to". Freakin' idiot *rolls eyes*. The message was so cocky and commanding I had to read it a bunch of times before I realized what he was even saying lol. I'm attracted to Leos thoughIP: Logged |

I only have Leo IC and S. Node In all honesty the more I let go from my ex. The better my state of mind got. Just having his business not be mine anymore, helped me move on and be so much more happy.When Scorpio ex dumped me, he wanted to look like Mr. Earnest. Since I showed up earlier than expected, he told me he wanted to take me out for food and do it. And I told him I'm glad he didn't do that, and that I don't want him to do that. At one point he told me that I am taking this well. (Seriously?!) But when I was like "okay, well let me get my things...." He started crying and told me that he wanted to be friends. And begged me to wait to get my things, and that he would pack them for me. I was like fine. Though he was the one who dumped me, my friends told me he had some strange reactions to my reactions. It really seems like my reactions didn't satisfy his ego. Just because I didn't beg him to give me another chance, does not mean my heart didn't break. But I could finally see that we were not going to be happy together. I even had a friend who would try to tell me his business, I told her I wasn't interested multiple times... I finally went off on her, and didn't speak to her for 4 months. Does this sound Leo to any of you? I had someone tell me that they thought I was a Leo before. I've been told I give off Gemini, Leo, Virgo, and Cancer vibes. IP: Logged |
