ok so I have been on a few dates with this leo guy and he is always so nice when we meet and tells me all the time that he really likes me and that he has never felt this chemistry with anyone else? He is a really bad communicator in the sense I tend to instigate the texts about 70% of the time mostly he replies as long as its light hearted banter as soon as its gets more deeper than that he runs.... he is a lot younger than me and he has said that he has never been in a serious relationship longer than 5 months which makes me think why? I am not even sure if he has had sex before but that's ok with me as I really like this guy and am willing to work with him and at his pace. We do get along extremely well and we always stay over at each others after our date nights but have not slept together just done other stuff. I just don't get it we text probably every couple of days but then as soon as we meet he will text the next day and then go missing for a few? can anyone explain this behaviour? is he stringing me along? he has said that he wants to get married and have kids and isn't interested in just dating for the sake of it and we have talked about kids futures etc....

I am a scorpio female and this is my chart
Sun in: 10??45' Scorpio
Moon in: 28??13' Pisces
AS in: 11??16' Scorpio
MC in: 14??56' Leo

I am not sure of his as I don't have his time of birth

any help would be appreciated

Is this the same Leo guy you posted about back in May?

Couple of red flags here..
1. He is telling you that he has never been in a relationship longer that 5 months. He is telling you that for a reason, maybe as a way of making you think "well I could be the woman to change that" and make you do all the work. Well maybe you are..or maybe he is trying to tell you that he's non-committal with women so that if things don't pan out with you at least he'll have warned you before he disappears...

2. He doesn't respond to some of your questions, leaving you confused. I think for the most part if a Leo man - any man actually - leaves you feeling confused about his intentions then that too is a problem. Women on here who have had successful relationships with Leo men were TOLD by their Leo men that they were in a relationship, stuff like "tell other guys you are talking to you're off the market" (brilliant btw) so the woman was in NO DOUBT. Has he labelled this "thing" with you?

3. You are initiating -let's be truthful here - 99% of the texting probably. He has no reason to text you if you are going to do all the work!

4. He's never had a relationship longer than 5 months and tells you that he's never felt chemistry like this before—? I don't buy that; this young guy imo has had a lot of short term "relationships" if you can even call them that - and probably said this before getting in someone's pants..

I'm sure he likes you and enjoys your company and I'm not sure whether he is stringing you along, but you need to be a bit more savvy in this arrangement, like have your eyes open for what it is. And as has been said before.. Let him chase, that's what they're wired for, and see what happens..

Aries Girl - yes it is the same guy and things started to look up as we met up more and communication improved but I always find after meeting he disappears for a few days and that's what I struggle to understand - thanks for your advice though I am trying to take it on board but being a scorp I have to learn to either be more patient or just move on



I dated a Leo like that-- for a couple of years.

He was also vague or evasive about certain things, which *did* raise some red flags for me-- but he

didn't smother me and the charisma-- *sigh*

So I ignored the warnings signs.

The disappearing for a few days after meeting when nothing's wrong-- you just don't hear from him?

He did that, too, and I think it's a control tactic, tbh.

He was an Aries moon-- a sign that I like in women, but the men... we tend to butt heads.


If your Leo had a water moon, I might be a little more optimistic-- but if there are other warning signs that you

can think of, I'd urge you to examine them a little more closely before you jump in.

This may not apply to your situation, but that was my experience.

Ok so we spoke and he told me that I'm too emotional and intense for him and that he likes me a lot but doesn't think we would be good together and we should be friends! I really like him and wondering whether he will change his mind about us? Or should I just move on?




I have been with a Leo male for 10 months and we are now engaged.

From what I have read, he is still a cub and not ready to be in an emotional relationship. He even stated you are too emotional for him. Atleast he was very honest with you and up front. Let him go, if its meant to be he'll come back around at some point. Keep your gaurd up and be friends for now. There is a big difference between a cub and a Lion.

To me he is telling you that a relationship with you will not work, your emotions scare him. He's not ready for it, most Leo's that have become Lions, love the emotional connection they get with their partner.


You have now experienced a Leo and WOW they can be the most amazing men in the world, go find a Lion. 😄

Seraph is a Leo guy.


I've dated 3 Leo and IME if a Leo is interested then it's obvious. They don't hide it very well and they never lag in the attention department IF they are really into you.

He might not be stringing you along but it doesn't sound like he's that into you. You can make excuses of his relationship experience, but a man would never pass up a chance of being with a woman he's really into. I'm currently with a Cancer man and he has very deep seeded trust issues, but that hasn't stopped him from making the moves and continuing in adamantly seeing and communicating with me regardless of his past and experience. It makes for some confusion but never in regards to his actions and intent.

When people are interested in someone they won't give up chances of seeing or being with someone, even texting. And especially in this day and age where technology is the forefront of our lives... the lack of answering your texts or initiating a text are large red flags.

Lastly, a Leo guy couldn't give you more insight than what anyone else has given you today. Why? Because he's not your leo guy. And regardless of sign relatedness everyone has their own minds and thought processes and to think you can gain insight into his mind from people who don't even know him... well. The advices thus far is the best you are going to get. And they are good advice! Unless you're looking for some miracle advice that will magically change the way (and I think you already know this) he feels for you.

Thanks everyone I guess it's just wanting to hear it from a leo perspective but I guess he isn't ready for me and I need to just move on.... He said he wants to be friends but I won't be initiating contact as if he truly wants to be friends then I guess he can contact me.... It's the first leo guy I have dated and yes you're right they are amazing so it hasn't put me off Leo's that's for sure!!! 🙂

I just wish he was more honest with me he told me from the get go that he wants to meet someone to settle down with and he has been ready to get married etc for the last two years but then he runs hot and cold!!! You're right he probably not nature enough to deal with a relationship and has commitment phobia... He is fine as long as it's light hearted banter and flirty but then we have also discussed more serious stuff but he just runs and it's so frustrating when everything else is great— Right now I have decided to ficus on myself and work on having some me time spending it with friends and family! We have had no contact for over 10 days as I won't be instigating anymore texts even though he suggested wanting to be friends... If he contacts me I guess I will see how I feel at the time but part of me thinks he won't... I think he knows that once I'm done I'm done and think he would think that I wouldn't text him back if he text me now and I know how Leo's don't like being ignored!!! Absolutely gutted and wish I wasn't so understanding when he needed time out as to me I just wasted valuable time with someone who I thought wanted to invest time in me!!! Thanks for your advice though 🙂
