HP - Question on your LIbra

This topic was created in the Libra forum by Maygirl on Thursday, January 11, 2007 and has 37 replies.
HP, I think I remember you saying once that one of your Libras was Oct. 23. Mine is Oct. 21. Can you tell me what your Oct. 23 Libra is like? Just curious to see how he compares to mine. I'm wondering if some Scorpio tendencies come into play.

Yes, a lot of Scorpio came out in him. So much so, that he and I got on each other's nerves (my polar opposite). He was a pity date...I haven't returned any of his calls or emails.
so what were the Scorpio characteristics as opposed to the Libra ones?
I see a lot of the Libra in my guy, but I'm wondering if there are some Scorpio signs I should be watching for.
Maygirl, Scorpios are INTENSE. They are usually very possesive. They LOVE sex (it seems to be on their mind ALL the time). CARNAL, if you will. DEEP emotions. IF you cross one you WILL be stung. They NEVER forgive you if wronged. Unfortunately, all the Scorpios I've ever known feel they must always be right.
Well, I guess my guy seems more libra. He is very laid back and relaxed. And he does do the withrawing and thinking things through thing. And he is very much into the gentle hinting, teasing, clever words, etc. But I do notice he is very sexual, and hints at trying things. Maybe that's the Scorpio tendencies coming through. He doesn't seem overpowering and overly intense, though.
Maybe I got the best of both worlds!
The Libra/Scorp cusp guy I went out with was very rushed to get into something with someone. Almost like he had co-dependent tendencies. He was a nice guy, but just seemed unsure of himself. The few times I spoke to him over the phone, he appeared to be moody. I'd tell him "You seem like you're in a bad mood." and he'd say he wasn't but then a few minutes later would start ranting/bitching about someone who'd pissed him off.
When we went out, I kept my cell phone on and even told him that I might get a call from my best friend due to an emergency that occured earlier that day. I don't like to answer my cell phone in public, but I told him ahead of time that I might get a call - felt it was courteous of me to at least give him a heads up. Well about 30 minutes later, my cell phone rang and it was my best friend. Instead of staying in the bar area, I went into the restroom since it was quieter. I ended the call as sooner as I could and went back to the bar about 5 minutes later. He was kind of snippy with me and said "So how's your FRIEND?" The way he stressed that word gave me the indication he didn't believe it really was my friend, but rather another guy. I told him "My FRIEND is fine, thank you for asking"...I can be snippy right back - I'm sure most of you can tell by the way I type on here Tongue. Later on, during dinner, he brought up the phone call and asked "Will you be expecting anymore calls tonight?" I replied "I don't expect or anticipate anymore calls, but I can't guarantee that. Why do you ask?" and then he said that I took a long time with the first call! I thought to myself "Wow, you're a needy/possessive/controlling kind of man! I only took 5 minutes!"
I only gave him a hug when we left. About 15 minutes or so after we left the restaurant (I drove my own car), he calls my cell phone and asks me "You don't want to see me again, do you?"...I avoided the question and fibbed and told him that I was on the other line with my sister and would call him back...I never called him back.
No, that doesn't sound at all like my guy. In fact, one time I had to make a phone call while with him and he kept up the erotic touching to the point where I almost couldn't concentrate. He never gets possessive sounding like that or gone off on the deep end.
I've never been with a Scorpio (as far as I know), so I wasn't sure what to expect. It sounds like the kind of guy I wouldn't be drawn to anyway. I'm glad my guy is more Libra.

bah...I miss Mr. Libra, but I need to move on. I really do. I've already told myself that it's not going to work and I needed to let him go. He didn't call or text me and it's pathetic how used to that I've gotten.
don't have to respond to that...didn't mean to hijack this thread...just me, thinking.
No problem. After the discussion I had with my Libra at the end of November, I thought it might be over. I really didn't want it to be, but I thought I pushed something in him that made him rethink our relationship. And the whole time I kept telling myself, I have to let him go, I have to let him go. As much as I was dying to call him up, text him, do something that could get me back with him, I had to tell myself, if it is going to work, then it will work out. But I know how hard it is to let go of some of these guys! I feel for you HP!
Oh, and during that time I kept telling myself, "just remember, you had several sweet moments to fill your diary. Keep that in mind and know it was a good time to treasure, even if nothing else develops."
(of course, in my case, he came back to me, so so far it is working out)
Hang in there HP!
I'm hanging baby...trust me. smile
Oh, yeah. I can relate to that. It has been a learning experience w/ my Libra, and several times I've decided "I'm done" - I actually even broke up with him twice, early on - but he keeps coming back and I miss him SO much when we're not together or in contact. I've never really missed someone quite like this before. It's a very passionate feeling that is HARD, but I guess that's also what makes it worth it.
If it's not him, HP, it'll be somebody else!
Ammorocks, you're a Gem aren't you? I am, too. I bet our relationships with our Libra guys are similar. I've gone back and forth with mine over the years, but we always still manage to come back to each other. I can honestly say that even though all these years, he's always been on mind. Something about him just makes him hard to forget!
I can't find the original post about how Libras like to look, dress, smell nice...but I just recalled that the night of mine and Mr. Libra's last night romp, when we got back in the call he asked me if I wanted some hand sanitizer and I said yes. He opened up his glove compartment and asked me which kind I wanted. I just figured he'd have a small bottle of Purell, but no...he had 4 kinds from Bath and Body Works: Vanilla and Fig, Coconut Lime, Ginger, and one other one. I bursted out laughing..he asked me why I was laughing, and I couldn't tell him why.
call=car
I think I would start laughing too!

This last time with my guy (the hot tub morning), after we got out of the tub, he grabbed a towel for me and wrapped it around me. While he was doing it, he said "this is not a bath towel, it's a bath sheet." I kind of laughed because he seemed so serious and proud of himself (and, of course, because I know what a bath sheet is). But in retrospect now, I wonder if he was just trying to impress me a bit or just showing off a little of his class. It did make me laugh, though.
Yes, I'm a Gem. The Gem/Lib relationship is interesting to me because it's hard to imagine how it works out long term. Both get bored easily, are somewhat fickle, free spirited, etc. So, I guess it makes sense that the relationship would be touch and go over the years. My Lib has made comments that even if someday he moved back to his home country and I didn't go, he would want me in his life.
" if someday he moved back to his home country and I didn't go, he would want me in his life."
has he elaborated to what extent?
No, we haven't talked about that yet. Right now he is confused about whether or not he wants to move. He feels like he would like to be able to visit often rather than move there. Mostly when he talks about moving there is either a) he is stressed out in his current work situation and wants to escape it or b) he is looking to find out how I feel about it. It's pretty obvious to me when he's fishing.
Anyways, at SOME point we will have some kind of talking to do, but right now, I want to just go with the flow and see what happens. I guess I am the kind that if I KNOW it's not going to work in the future, I leave now...so that's something I'm going to want to find out soonish...we're going on a year together now, and while it's been good and fun, I'm not one to waste my time. So, I'll need some kind of sign.
"Mostly when he talks about moving there is either a) he is stressed out in his current work situation and wants to escape it "

Have you noticed if he escapes other problems in his life?
Hmmm, funny... HP I also had a short friendship with an Oct 23rd Libra/Scorp cusp. Yes, one day before mine and he got way too clingy too fast. He did seem kind of dependant. We are still friends but no shagging.
Mr. Libra just called me at the office to see how I was feeling. Why is it that when I'm on the edge of letting him go, he comes back.
It's a
TUG

O

WAR
Yeah, QS. He was way to clingy to me and I'm a Taurus for goodness sake.
and I ended the phone call...usuallyit's been him to end it, but i told him "thanks for calling and seeing how i'm doing - that was so nice of you. i'll talk to you later".
oh oh and get this..you guys were so right. during our 10 minute-ish conversation, he made TWO references to our late-night secluded road romp. he just kinda worked it in...heehee
See, you tickled his fancy and now he can't get it out of his mind, especially because now he's finding you not so available.
jeez...I swear i'd label them gay, if I hadnt known better.
My libra guy friend is always spotless and smell good....he acts a little airhead-ish but he's the smartest thing walking...
Oh and when my libra guy told me he waxes...I was shocked and asked if he were a metrosexual, but he says no....yeah right.
HP, you are soooo right, just when you make up your mind to leave them alone they will contact you out of the blue, the more you ignore (at least for awhile) the more they contact you. Trying to hang on to control.
Told you, I knew he would bring up the message. We think they don't pay attention, but at some point they let you know they have.
I told him I contacted someone about a laptop and I was shocked at how little the guy was selling his laptop and Mr. Libra's response was "Did you offer to show up in a hot little mini skirt in exchange for a low price?"
That was one reference...
Another had to do with a trampoline, but I honestly have no idea how we got on that subject. I mentioned to him that I had one as a kid and they were neat to sleep on at night under the sky. He mentioned "We should put it in my truck and take it a secluded road"...something like that.
They have that air sign ADHD thing...x10...so ive noticed.
HP, I am very curious about the jealous comments. I don't know if they are jealous, but they make those statements often, even when you are not in a relationship with them. My ex-husband just called and said (b-day 10/15)"How was the Green Dolphin (a club)last week?" I responed "I don't know wasn't there last week, I was there 2 weeks ago and it was nice" He responded, "who did you go with?" I told him one of my girl friends.

I asked my libra friend if his company had a corporate office downtown. He said they did and asked who I was looking for.
I responded - Some dude trying to mack said he worked for your corporate office
He responded - So it looks like you are getting your mack on, I guess you are ready to date now huh? - I ignored that comment, as he is in a relationship again, right?
Oh and by the way my ex knows almost everyone in Chicago. I have even talked to a guy or two out who knew him and it didn't go anywhere from there. He has spies everywhere it seems. He told me on of his friends told him I was on a dating site. I responded - yup and it was fun, you should try it sometime. He didn't like that.
"he acts a little airhead-ish but he's the smartest thing walking..."
This one is, too. He has a PhD in Chemistry and acts goofy.
Exactly, its like their allergic to serious conversation...but dont play along, then they get frustrated and whine...
Yes, they are smart. My libra comes across as just a basic workman (he's in the trades) but some of the words he uses amaze me. I wonder if they don't want people to know smart they really are?
Whoa, you guys are having an awesome conversation on this, I almost feel bad like busting in on a tupperware party to respond to some stuff.
The possesiveness you guys experienced is the Scorpio side of the cusp, the high sex drive is a trademark of both signs. The gay/metrosexual comments are funny. My roomate came out with "it's kinda cool having a Metro roomate." I my immediate response was like I was offended. I mean, I have been running a fugitive recovery team for the last year, owning a bail bond company and he knows I have had a fair share of no holds barred sparring matches so I asked....What do you think the definition of Metrosexual is? His response was "I dunno if it's in the dictionary but your really concious of your appearence and well dressed and rarely ever offensive." I was like crap.... I might be slightly metro. I picture a metro guy as looking/acting gay while being strait. I might come accross as a bit ambigious from time to time but I don't ever act like a flamer. I dunno how I should take that.
