Seriously. Someone enlighten me. I've just become re-involved with me libra ex after 5 years. We were first loves.
He went through a very crappy relationship in that time.
He came back to our hometown and we met up about a week later. We instantly got together and things go heated quickly (in a good way).
However, we matured a lot. After that night. We agreed to take it slow. I've been wanting to take it slow for awhile now.
We were together as teenagers and now as adults we see things different.
It's pretty amazing because now we're going slow. Going slow is now something I cherish because something rushed in could be rushed out. Learned that the hard way.
The dilemma here is that we are getting to know eachother in a brand new way all over again. It's no longer about the physical part now. Or the partying part. We are spending genuine time together as adults. Sober & upright/vertical.
Real conversation. Learning new things about eachother.
But one thing that's hard for me to understand is this mood swing tonight. I mean I had heard he had been through depression the past few years but I guess I didn't know the extent of it. I'm a leo woman and being patient and understanding to someone else is very hard but this time I was willing to understand more. I've been willing to silent my roar a little bit.
But maybe I'm not equipped to catch on to this.
We spent a few hours together today around his family. This girl he used to mess with was one of his moms friends and she showed up to eat dinner with us. He wasn't happy about it. It seemed like he didn't like the tension. I kept asking him if he wanted me to leave. He said no over and over.
He was in a mood all evening and I don't recall him ever being this way when we were together a long time ago. He was always a happy go lucky person.!
You think you know someone but as we were spending more time together, I'm learning more about him. And I'm sensing that there are deeper darker things that I've overlooked before that I clearly am getting a view of now.
Is it mood swings? Should I back off? I'm not acting clingy or on his case. But I am matching his persistence with this.
I just want some insight as to what I'm truly getting myself into as I'm now trying to see what this is, through adult lenses now.

When dealing with Libras, I've always found it's best not to force anything. Let them come to you on your own time. Otherwise you just might smother them.
Libras can also be moody and become unbalanced in unpleasant/confrontational situations. For a Leo this can be strange because we believe in either confronting unpleasant situations head on or ignoring them entirely. We do not like to fall in the middle and often think other people should follow suit.
If it seems like the Libra guy is pushing you back, then take a step back. Let him work through his own feelings and come back to you. You've already asked him if he was ok and he said he was fine. Just let him do his own thing and don't overdo it from your end.
