Posted by KittenfishSounds awesome
hahahaha...seriously this guy has me reeled in. I reached out after a year of silence - we had never met before. This guy did everything but drag me into his den with his teeth. No hesitation....and I'm sort of scared by the intensity. We met for the first time last night.
Posted by CAPRILICIOUSOh! Ok. Thank you.
My parents are Leos.
If you're looking for a goal-oriented partnership, then it's a good match. The energies in such a relationship are mostly directed outwards.
My parents have been good at sharing responsibilities and creating wealth and opportunities for their children. It's a powerful matchup and my parents are highly respected in the community.
The downside, however, is that both have been guilty of neglecting each other's emotional needs. Their relationship with their children is stronger than what they have with each other.
Posted by CAPRILICIOUSInteresting. It so happened that during a friendly chat, he told me that I was humble and I told him that he was humble. I guess both of us had misinterpreted each other as 'humble', which is not the case really. It was funny.Posted by InLoveWithLifeI'd say they are respectful, sensitive and guarded, which makes them appear shy.Posted by CAPRILICIOUSOh! Ok. Thank you.

But are Leo men shy? I've come across 3-4 Leo men from different backgrounds so far. They seem to be quite shy to initiate a conversation, but they begin talking somewhat freely and playfully when I start a conversation and they're comfortable. Can't understand.
In reality these men are confident, prideful, ambitious and boisterous. They are good at earning money and looking after their family.
Mentally they are very strong. They deal with life's challenges head on.click to expand
Posted by CAPRILICIOUSAww... Thank you! Actually one thing I've learnt from my recent past is to not be so impulsive very early with anyone, because all those words you've used kinda apply to me, too, and it literally scares most of the men.

These guys are both nice and weird. I don't know when to call it friendship and when they mean more than that. They seem to flirt now and then, pay good attention, are also polite and sweet and there's a lot of joking, teasing, and laughing, but I don't think it'd be wise to jump to any conclusion till they say anything openly! (Till then, I guess I'd appear reserved to them.)
They do have a tendency to jump first and think later. They will go after anything that catches their fancy. Very impulsive. They are great flirts too.
You were with a Cap earlier, so you might miss that depth...if you have gotten used to it by now.
Anyway, Leos open up really fast and are generous with gifts. I wish you lots of fun!

Changing oneself for another person can make us start to resent them after a while, especially when things are not going well.

Posted by CAPRILICIOUSPosted by DivaCanLeoLeo men appear guarded at first, because they are sensitive and have a huge ego. But at the same time, they are impetuous. Once attracted to a girl, they will jump headlong.
Wait you say they're open yet guarded?
Hmmmm do how does that work
Also what do you think about leos with Taurus moon
Taurus moon is a very strong placement
When I say they open up really fast, I was comparing them to Capricorns, who usually take a long time to get there. In a relationship, Leos are quick to declare their feelings. They are very communicative, unlike Capricorns.
Well, I've seen a difference between Leos with Fire/Air moon vs Earth/Water moon. The former are spendthrifts, while the latter can be somewhat stingy.
My father has a Cancer moon, while my brother, Sagittarius. My brother is very outgoing and he believes in taking risks. My father, on the other hand, wants to follow the tried and tested. There is a huge difference in their natures.
Personally, I prefer the former. Most of my Leo friends have Aquarius moons.click to expand

But like Caprilicious said, it depends on how he takes it. If he's all fun loving and fine with initiating conversations, he'll find a way to get back again soon.![]()
Yeah, like she said, neither can I imagine anyone breaking up over a joke.![]()

Posted by KittenfishI loved the 'hijacking' as well. And I'm waiting for answers from Leos, hoping a Lion or Lioness would share their personal experience! I'm an Leo, and I've shared my experience with Leo men - most of them seem humble and reserved, but also friendly and playful, never seen their dark sides, never got the opportunity to, nice guys on the whole, and yes, guarded.
So...I do love how this conversation got hijacked by non Leos just loving on us cats....but...friendly reminder...this is a Leo + Leo thread. Does this shit fucking work or not??? I no know...

Posted by Freetobe007Hey, Girl! There's a Leo whom I suppose is interested in me. We met online a few months ago and then we'd decided to stay friends. There was nothing interesting from then on and I totally avoided him.
I was in a long term relationship with a fellow Leo. Very intense, passionate relationship. He was one of the few people who was down to do all the crazy, fun chit my heart desires. If I felt like getting a spontaneous tattoo, he'd get one with me. If I was cliff jumping, he was sprinting right next to me. He was really sweet and generous; he used to massage me for as long as I wanted all the time & have a cup of mint green tea ready for me just the way I like it when I would visit just to name a couple of things. We had a lovely element of mutual-pampering to our relationship.
Major problems with the alpha role. It's not that I want to be an alpha, but I cannot stand being controlled or bossed around. I will rebel and be completely obstinate and would deliberately not give what he wanted until he fixed his approach. I liked for us to lead one another whereas he liked to be in control, often leading to me saying, "Get out of my face with that bullchit." We had really intense fights that often turned into raging sex. He had a horrible jealous streak. One time, he sped on the highway in the middle of the night to my apartment with a knife because he thought I was with another man and he was ready to stab him. -_- He also tried to do subtle things to keep us on each other's radar when he sensed I was pulling away like moving into the apartment complex I had my eyes on and repeatedly trying to encourage me to sign up at his gym.
Posted by Freetobe007We're living in the same city. We exchanged numbers the day we met online. He seemed to be not interested in anything then (neither was I) and he's busy on almost all days - working on the weekdays and doing some course on the weekends.Posted by InLoveWithLifeHey!!Posted by Freetobe007Hey, Girl!

This new year eve, he got back to me sending me a greeting. Since then, we've been chatting pretty often. We tease each other, exchange jokes and laugh like kids. He's both friendly and also seems a bit flirtatious. He's sending me a lot of emoticons (just the wink ones and tongue out or blushing ones) and even shared with me a romcom movie link.
He still calls me 'buddy' once in a while but also says "we've to meet sometime". He gives me compliments that are rare - noble, impressive, inspiring, "you're really good/humble", etc.
He hardly ever initiates any chat but if I initiate, he responds quite enthusiastically. For all the questions I ask him regarding my everyday problems, he gives me smart answers.
What am I supposed to understand from this? That he's interested or is this a Leo guy's 'friendly' behaviour?
If he's interested, how do they expect a woman to react? Be open and straightforward or wait patiently, let them enjoy the chase, and let them make the first move?Flirty, friendly warmth is usually normal for Leo guys so I don't recommend getting too excited about it unless he is consistent with approaching you and initiating time for the two of you. They tend to like flattering women and making them feel charmed even if they have no legitimate plans to romance you or give you a good sticking. Try not to get too hopeful about the cute emojis and sweet compliments or his helpful answers. The only way to know for sure is if they are going out of their way to make you more than just a brief experience.
In my experience, when a Leo man wants you, he will initiate putting you in positions where he can engulf you in everything he has. They're not shy about it at all. For example, my Leo ex kept approaching me out of nowhere and making up random reasons to make small talk when we first met until he eventually asked for my number. The main sign is him making a consistent effort to be present in your life.
Your situation may unfold differently though because you two met online. Do you live in the same state? Has he mentioned exchanging phone numbers?click to expand
Posted by LeodarlingHaha, wild Leo! Thanks for sharing that! It was good to read, after reading a lot of 'may not work' and 'too difficult'. I'm a wild Leo, too. Yes, I believe in showering a lot of attention and the power of courting, too.
I'm in a Leo/Leo relationship. In a few days, we'll have been together 20 years! When we met he was very guarded. But he loved the way I courted him with all my attention and heat. In return, he poured on all the playful giving that a lion does. Neither of us had ever had so much fun in our lives. We were inseparable by week 2.
Do we fight? Oddly...almost never. Maybe it's our moons: he's moon Taurus and I'm moon Pisces. We each have our own territories. He rules day to day matters, I rule all future planning and long term goals. He's practical, I'm the wild. It's an amazing mix.
It's also awesome having a leo/leo partnership because in the beginning it feels like you are the only two people in the world, and then it starts being you two against the world. Divide and conquer! You take the left, I'll take the right, and we'll both bring home the spoils to each other.
Posted by KittenfishHey, Kittenfish! I sent him a link this morning and he sent me replies to yesterday's messages saying "not at all, you're always welcome to come home."
Yeah, I'm not sure how pursuing works for Leo men. Are they into the chase, or do they want attention in the beginning?
Posted by Kittenfish
I mean, in general I'm playful with guys, but I try to let them initiate for at least a little in the beginning. I've been burned a ton being the initiator. (last guy was a scorpio...and oh my he would disappear all the time)
What kind of Leo am I? Well, I have an aqua moon, so I'm fun, but a bit aloof at times. I do a lot of questioning of my own behavior, and I think way too much, haha.
So back to this other Leo (here's my problem right now): this guy was hot and heavy last week, and we had been flirting every day for a week. We finally met up late last week - it was awkward for me (his hours are the opposite of mine, he works as a sous chef and doesn't get off work until laaaate) and he had been baiting me to come over. So I did. In the rain. And it's late (like "girl you know these are booty hours" late, wtf are you doing - but he was chiding me on, saying I wasn't interested in him because i wasn't making any effort, blah blah...so i had to bite). We got along well, the heat was definitely there - we cuddled and talked about life, and what he wants to do in the future. It all seemed pretty natural, but it was a short visit. I had to drive back home so I could be ready for work in the am. If I had stayed over, the traffic would have been unbearable.
So here's the rub. Ever since meeting in person, he's been distant (or busy???). We've talked a bit, but he hasn't been the initiator, and I haven't been wanting to put out more effort, because I made the initial effort of driving out to meet him. Friday night I wanted to see him, so I texted him to come over. He said he was working late, and it would be freezing to ride out to me...and that he gets off at 1. Well, I fell asleep, and woke up to find that he has asked me where i was, as in he wanted to come out after all. But it was late by the time I saw the text (It was sent at midnight, and I saw the text at 3am) so we didn't end up connecting. I sent him a cute text around 4pm that day (this is Saturday btw)...just a cute teaser text, not a question or anything because i know he's at work. The fucker doesn't respond until almost midnight on Sunday...with a one word teaser text. So I have not responded. I thought maybe if I didn't respond, he would initiate and actual conversation eventually.
Eghh, so I'm not sure what to do here, cut it doesn't feel all that good at the moment.

Maybe it's our moons: he's moon Taurus and I'm moon Pisces.

Posted by InLoveWithLifeHey girl,
Hey, Kittenfish! Any updates?
I'm coming across the 4th or 5th Leo guy this month! Uff! And why are they all reserved???
The one Leo I was ranting about is now playing hot and cold! He'd never initiate a chat unless and until there's some excuse (say to wish for a festival or occasion). All other times, I've to initiate the chat!
Once I initiate it, he responds quickly, enthusiastically and the chat is really fun. He's witty, smart, soft and has a good sense of humour! His texts are kinda flirtatious with a lot of tongue out emoticons, wink emoticons and blush smiles. Lol, I use them, too, but not the wink one. And both of us tease each other, we crack timely jokes and it's fun.
But suddenly he'd disappear! Yes, he's busy with work, research, and he says he's out on a personal vacation with friends, but no response for days?
It's as though he'd appear online for a short time and go offline very soon... No response and I've to wait till there's some occasion! What does this mean, really? Friendliness or an interest?
Why so reserved? I'm tired! And recently he mentioned that he has a partner in research who's living in a different country.
We'd decided two months ago that we'd remain friends and nothing more. Now he comes back to wish me for the new year, we start chatting, he's flirtatious and hints that we've to meet, but what does all this mean!?
Currently no contact or response for 2 days.

So that guy I made the post about ended getting the stomach flu. He had a really high fever and was home for work half last week. I am just sort of letting him recover. Honestly, as for your situation...I think you might be focusing on these guys to much. Try to let them all go, focus on your own endeavors, and see what happens! A watched pot never boils.
I'm going back to TRX tonight and cannot wait! Love me some sore ass muscles. Also, I have had two great dates in the past week w other men...and I'm not talking about them or talking to them right now. Let them come to you if you're not officially dating.
Also...cut out the online monitoring...it's only going to drive you crazy!click to expand
