My Gemini-ness is KILLING ME!

Help me guys Sad
I have like LOVE ADD.
I don't know how to stick with anyone, My longest relationship was maybe a few months LOL
the grass always seems greener on the other side, If I don't feel even a bit excited anymore then I've already moved on.. It gets so annoying UGH!
I want to 'settle' a bit (not like marriage & stuff) but in a relationship maybe, but yeah.. it never works.
lol it's like I expect them to keep up with me and make me have 'butterflies' at all times and if they can't then it's "bye bye but thanks for playing! "
LOL anyways... is this normal for a Gemini? do you guys ever feel this way? how can I get it to lessen?

I don't know how old you are, but when I was young I had the same problem. It was more because I was bored or there were too many other people waiting in line, so why be bogged down with someone who can't keep up when there are other options. I think stability with Geminis in the romance department comes with maturity. However you are a first decan Gem and I am a third. I have found that you first decans have a much harder time with this, then the other two Gemini decans. I think it is because of all that Mercury. I am sort of surprised that you have this problem since you have a Cancer moon and your Venus is in Taurus. That should eventually help you. Perhaps you have not met the right one yet.
You can only be who you are and if people accept it then great. If they don't well it is probably for the best. After all do you really want someone if they can't see the bigger picture or if they don't understand who you are? Which is hard for Geminis because most people don't get us at all. Just don't change in order to keep or attract someone it is just not worth it. Be yourself and when the right person comes then you will know it and they will like you the way you are. Besides you will probably have to date a lot of guys before you find the one that you connect with. The dating pool of men is just not that hot to be completely honest. Especially for Geminis, people who are attracted to the mind foremost. I think we have become a society that accepts and promotes ignorance. Which is sad to say the least.

Thank you, that does make sense as I have a lot of time.. no rush smile
Only Geminis can understand
I'm also surprised too with my Cancer moon and Taurus Venus cause I often feel like I have a Gemini venus and I'm so attracted to Aquarius moons.
Lol I feel like I connect with my progressed chart more than my natal chart because in my progressed chart I have an Aquarius moon and Gemini as my Venus sign.
Is that odd? o.O
I went on Astro.com
Then go to the bottom right where it says ' extended chart selection '
lol then from there you choose what you want !
try it from there.. if you didn't already that is
lol and tell me what you get Big Grin
I got sidetracked with that progressed chart thingy, LOL. Went to astro.com to see what mine would turn up with and all the drop down menus confused me. There's a date there -- should I pick the date today or my birthday? Anyway, I just woke up and my brain refuses to process anything complicated just yet... so I shall come back to it later.
GlamGemini - I'm with you on the relationship ADD. I have it too all for the reasons CCDarling mentioned. It sucks because I would also like to level up just like you and actually settle down but whenever someone actually wants to become more serious with me, the prospect of a predictable life and more of the same ol, same ol from here on out, the lack of freedom and being answerable and accountable to someone else -- it makes me PANIC. I feel trapped. I can't breathe. I run. There's always at least one broken heart in that scenario there.
There's a lot of good advice CC gave -- be yourself until you find someone you connect with. And I don't know if this will make sense to you (probably yes, bec you're a GEM) but I need someone who can connect with "all of my selves" to be able to get my defenses down. That takes time and by the time he gets through all of them, if I give him the opportunity, I'm usually bored.
So I dunno. I haven't given up but it sure would be nice to be my selves with someone who can keep up with it and still be around. I wish this maturing process (romantically) could be hurried up though. I'm running out of time haha.

I'm the SAME EXACT WAY.
I feel like I'm trapped and I can't breathe, I feel suffocated quickly lol.
You're running out of time? haha what do you mean?
Never girl..
Patti from the show Millionaire Matchmaker is a GEMINI and she's getting married at 52!
Better late than never right?

Even with the extended I got the very same results as usual. So mine did not change at all.


Really? lol hmm since mine is Aqua moon currently
Does that explain why I'm so fascinated by you Aquarius moon people?
Cause you guys rock .. seriously.

Hahaha... I didn't know that about the Millionaire Matchmaker! At 52, huh? Hmmm.... that seems a lifetime away, haha. I have heard so many stories of don't give up. It'll come when you least expect it. This or that girl still found somebody in her 40s, 50s... well, haven't heard of 60s yet... but I don't know anymore!
I do feel that I've somehow matured somewhat (I sound so tentative... lol) in the romance department but not after a harrowing, anguish filled break-up with a guy who totally broke my heart to pieces at a time when I felt ready to level up. (Are you getting how traumatic this was for me considering it takes me a lot to get there?)
After him, I'm not as cavalier in playing all the "cruel intentions-art-of-seduction" head games anymore. It used to come so naturally to me because it was mainly fun but since I realized that I was also gambling with a most precious commodity and resource (a.k.a. my fragile heart), I'm more careful now. I'm with a Virguy now and they're supposedly reliable and stable but I think that's going to end soon because I need someone who doesn't do the push-pull, suffer my moods, this is the way I see the world and nothing's going to change it thing.
Dang. 52, huh? What am I going to do in the meantime? LOL

Heyyyy... seriously how do you find that out? I'm Moon in Taurus but you're telling me I could be something else right now? If I were to go with my gut feel, I'd say I'd be in Moon in Oblivion right now, lol.
JOANIE - I feel you girl lol I've only wanted to commit once in my life.. he was a Leo sun/Aqua moon/Leo venus
Ugh he really took his time with me, and slowly but surely after like a year of us talking non stop and spending time together, I started to develop some serious feelings for him and he did for me, but then he was too scared to make it official because we're very different (backgrounds & all ) lol I didn't care but he did.. so we just parted but ha the one time I wanted to actually be serious, and I got fooled LOL.
It's okay girl.. we'll all find someone who can put up with our craziness, don't you worry! Big Grin
As Miss Monroe says " If you can't handle me at my worst, you don't deserve me at my best "

Also for the progressed chart.. Go to --- > Astro.com
- Scroll down to the bottom right hand corner and click ' extended chart selection '
- Enter in your birth data if you didn't already
- Where it says 'Please select the chart you want' go and find "Progressed chart"
- Click "click here to show the chart"
VOILA! ENJOY! smile
CCdarling - Wow I find Libra moons charming too lol my ex was one but it ended up really badly! ( Capricorn sun )
But I think ( correct me if I'm wrong of course ) Aquarius moons are more quicker to move on as they eventually sense 'bull' from people more easier and they move on without making too much fuss, they seem distant and cold and yeah I notice most of them are in their own world but that's what makes me even more fascinated by them aha
Do you think it sometimes makes you lack empathy/not show ur emotional side too much though?
Or do you feel your Cancer venus balances it out?
CCdarling - I guess what I'm trying to ask is . . . what DO you get emotional over?
I know a couple of people with Libra moons but I just don't feel the same chemistry/zing with them as Aqua moons haha.
What about Aries moons? lol whats been your relationship like with them so far? Do you think they're very ADD like Geminis
at times?
Or maybe you feel even more of a strong connection due to your Sag rising?
My current Leo sun guy has an Aries moon aha so I'm wondering what's your 2 cents on it smile

I can remember the first time I got jealous of someone I dumped him. I can remember feeling jealous and being like nope ain't doing it later. I really liked him but figured if this was how it was going to be then I would just save us both time, plus if I was feeling that way "why?". Something just was not right. The initial feelings of jealousy made me mad at myself for even feeling them. Weird I know but that was how it was.


CC -- First off, sorry to hear about your soon to be ex. I know you'll make it through the tough transition time so hang in there!
Re: Jealousy -- same here, I have dumped guys who have tried to make me feel jealous especially when my feelings for him haven't matured yet. For me, at that point, that's all drama crap. I don't need it. If you want to be with someone else, go ahead and be with her. If you want to be with me, then throw all the jealousy crap out the window. I like to feel emotionally secure with someone, not forever wondering if he wants to really be with me.
OTOH, if I really want to be childish and immature, I could also go the "do you really want to play that game?" tactic. Because if he wants that jealousy thrown back and forth, I could really give him a run for his money. I have guy best friends, flirt friends, lovers, a very colorful past -- but when I'm in a relationship with someone, I don't bring all that up because it just gets complicated so sometimes I catch myself and just walk away, other times when I'm in a I don't really fucking care anymore mood, I dish out the ammo. Depends I guess on how much he tries to hurt me without provocation on my part.

GlamGemini -- okies, thanks a bunch for that progressive chart tip. Will still have to try later. Trying not to get derailed on my cleaning haha.
This is so off topic but what element do you think you get along with the best & why ?
Ooohhh.... I now kind of wish I knew the moons of the guys I had relationships with but it's kind of hard to remember asking "what time were you born and where?"... sheesh. It really wasn't since I started visiting DXP that I realized how important the moon sign is when it comes to getting along emotionally or attraction-wise.
Okay, I will make it a point to ask next time. =P
Air for friendship.
Earth for love lol and if they have air in their chart.. makes it better!
since you know I'm a Cap rising/Taurus venus/Virgo mars lol.
Air for friendship because we understand each other and can keep up with each other mentally, and they're not clingy, give me my space and don't like emotional drama (tried water signs as close friends.. just didn't gel with me lol)
Earth for love because they're reliable and stable, most earth sign guys I've dated were very very dedicated and with air in their chart it spicens things up aha!

I like water & fire too of course.. they're all awesome.
But air + earth = my lovers
CCdarling - AWWWWWW THAT'S SO CUTE! I think air + earth can connect well since they're both very cold at first..
Earth signs have the ambition and drive that Air admires as well.
and YES I have been with another Gemini lol it was a DISASTER but also so much fun.
He was like my first love I guess, but it was constant mind games and he cheated on me with tons of girls..
In all fairness we both played games and we were both young, immature & foolish.
He's now with an Aries female and is actually committed.. lol
I agree with what you said, it comes with maturity.
What about you?

I like gem females a lot . However i have to wonder how they can always "float" on the surface of life . I mean eventually after the wit , smiles , and verbal banter , there has to be some emotion . There has to be some depth and passion ? Maybe air signs were just born to be dispassionate and analytical i suppose .
At any rate i agree that air gets along well with fire and earth but probably earth more since they are also dispassionate .


Yeah well personally I CHOOSE not to.
I just like every other person do get emotional and deep but my Gemini-ness outbeats me.. I stop and say "no need to get caught up"
and I start thinking everything through logically, some tough love! lol
I believe we all CHOOSE how to react to things, Geminis simply think and act with their head & not their hearts.
But maybe that's just me..

Oh, trust me there is emotion, depth and passion but we're very particular of people who get to see that. It's like the transmission gear in a car. You can't exactly dish it out and be witty and engage in verbal banter if you let your Achilles' Heel be known to everyone or you'll just be a target. The same thing can be said with the almost Machiavellian efficiency we have in getting things done. We often have different projects on our plate and to get things done properly, sometimes sentimentality has to take a back seat.
If you want to see that softer, gentler side, we have to be really sure that you won't pierce us when our armor is down.
