Libra Man curiosity...am I doing things right?

This topic was created in the Libra forum by BreezyVirgo on Saturday, October 26, 2013 and has 3 replies.
Virgo female here. Dating Libra man for six months. He is 41; I'm 52. No issues with age. He is very sweet, attentive and has no issue that I make more money than him. He bought me a beautiful necklace (which he really couldn't afford at the time), and he was genuinely pleased that I realized the sacrifice he made to get it. It means more to me than a million-dollar ring, because I knew he was thinking of me and wanted to get me something pretty with the means that he had.
He is very loving and drives 1.5 hours (one way) to see me on Saturdays, after he drives that distance every day to go to work. We talk every day on his way to work and on his way home, and he calls/texts several times from work for no reason. I know he loves me, and I love him. He has never been married but has brought it up a few times...I never have, because I was married for a long time and didn't want to scare him into thinking I was going to "trap" him into marriage.
I'd just like a little guidance on the Libra man. When he says "marry me eventually", and "I'm gonna marry you" is he just thinking out loud (like Libras do) or could he be serious? We've discussed moving in together, although he's dragging his feet. He raises tropical fish and has many tanks that would need to be moved and all of his furniture, too. Does his hesitance mean that he might not want to move in with me? He texted me a few weeks ago when he got up and said "I woke up and want to start packing to be with you...I'm my happiest when I'm with you." He hasn't packed anything yet, and I just don't bring it up. I don't want him to feel pressured but, at the same time, want him to know that I'm eager for him to move in.
Any information is appreciated. I really think we're on the right track and that he's sincere. Being a Virgo, I tend to over-analyze although I'm much more relaxed in this relationship than I ever have been before. I think being a little older makes things better for both of us. I have no expectations and just enjoy every minute we're together. He says the same and texted me "We can do whatever tomorrow as long as I'm with you."
Thanks for reading, and your comments are very appreciated to ease my Virgo mind. smile
Take a lot of what he says at face value and don't believe him until you actually see actions that back up his words.
Not to say that you should just forget all of it, but I wouldn't start fixating on such declarations like that until you see it happening.
I've heard all sorts of flowery shit from the Libra guys I've seen, and a lot of the time, it was temporary or it never happened. They have a tendency to get all caught up in the moment.
Also, why are you not alarmed by any of this and it's only been 6 months??
Definitely take it all with a grain of salt. He's in the honeymoon phase.
Another question would be is why is he single at 52? Long term bachelor? Divorced or widowed? How many times has he been married?
While i don't think it's too uncommon to be unmarried at 41 these days, i agree that you want to pay more attention to his actions.
But I would also say that, even though this seems rushed-maybe because you are both older- don't discount what he is saying. Libra men are on the lazy side and it's a hassle to move! I wouldn't consider not immediately moving in after 6 months dragging his feet, and he is less likely to be in any rush if he IS serious, because you'd have the rest of your lives to share a home and enjoy marriage, right? Either way, i think it is better to take your time than to rush and have that much more to deal with and more time wasted if things don't work.
