LEO HOT AND COLD TACTICS Please explain

This topic was created in the Leo forum by Babykaykesiam on Friday, April 2, 2010 and has 9 replies.
Hi guys I am noticing a regular predictable unppredictability of Leonine Hot and Cold behaviour.\Meaning being so loving, warm and affectionate and doting and expressive of love then becoming cold, detached and not as enthusiasiastic in responding a few days later.
Is it done on purpose? Or are they just moody?
What does this mean? What are they trying to achieve?
What is the best way for me to handle them so they keep coming around regularly smilesmile
Thanks for ur input and Happy Easter!!!
I'd like to know too. I'm getting the same after slightly rejecting to meet him. I think he thought I had go out elsewhere instead of being with him.
welll...usually when a Leo becomes cold/distant/detached...they're upset about something. The best way to get to the bottom of this is to....dun dun dun...ASK if something is wrong, and whether or not they are upset. Sorry, I don't mean to sound sarcastic, but generally when one notices a change in behavior with someone you know...someone who's close (whether it be friend, lover, family), one's usual response is to investigate and find out what's going on...yes? So...that's what you should do with your Leo (or anyone you care about for that matter). Just be upfront and honest with tact. If this inconsistent behavior bothers you...speak up about it and let him/her know that you aren't going to deal with it (being gentle, of course...don't want to hurt the big cat's feelings). If he/she really cares about you...he/she'll shape up and you two will be able to have an open and honest dialogue. Afterwards...you'll be thinking "man...that was easy" :-)
good luck!
I am a leo I can say I do that yes :-) its just that when we get a lot attention its nice and we are caring and loving, if promises are broken or we feel rejected in any small way we tend to get upset. For me my detachment is very temporary and I warm up fast enough. Asking us what happened does make us feel good also shows that you care - so that must work ...
what? i'm a leo and i don't blow hot and cold. i am consistently warm. if i'm upset about something u will know. u won't have to pry it outta me. i don't blow up but i'm assertive. yeah, i'm expressive and u will always know where u stand with me. if i feel rejected, u will know i feel that way. i know we can be busy ppl so maybe we're perceived as being cold or stand-offish sometimes. we're just focused!
i dunno. i have leo male friends and they're a lot like me in that sense. *shrugs*
Personally I tend to be very expressive in relationships, sometimes overly so but I don't like getting too close sometimes. If I feel like I'm getting too close to the her, I'll back away a little bit and be pretty distant. Then when I get too distant I'll make up for it by being very affectionate to the person again. It's hard for me to be balanced in that sense and I'll swing from being affectionate, to backing off and keeping a distance. I'm a retard at relationships lol. But Babykay I felt like you basically just described me in your post, could be a connection.
I have been seeing a Leo for just a short time. We were friends/co workers before. Then his birthday party July 30. We ending up flirting, snuggling and making out. He just turned 40, and am 39.
We didn't expect the night to turn out like that. So we continued to text, then went out to dinner. He wanted to chat and make sure we were on the same page.
By the end of the night he was all over the place. Saying that his divorce has just been barely a yr (sept 9). He said he liked me, liked spending time. Wasn't sure about a relationship. Which I did not ask for. He looked like he was fighting with himself in his head.
So we texted each other for the next two days. Then nothing for a week. I left him be. I texted him this Sunday about watching a movie, and he replied with a one word answer.
I did not push it. But I totally understand the hot and cold.
I am very confused.
What do I do?

I'm actually doing that right now, but the circumstance is very different. It's rather that I've been taken advantage of my enthusiastic nature while others act like they're on a pedal stool. For years, I did not care about that kind of behavior or attitude because I treat my friends like little brothers and sisters, but they have gotten my attention when they gave me attitude or mistreated me. Funny thing is they think they can do it. They don't see that I don't care about trivial matters that they cared so much. So sad. Cause I did care for them and took care of them and protected them.

I'm a leo myself, when we go hot and cold, you have wounded our pride in some way shape or form. We are really big cry babies, though you won't ever see that! lol
