is that wrong? im not really a "social butterfly", i hate crowds, large crowds and hate strangers and friends who i feel come across as fake or being around ppl who lied to me or pissed me off but for some reason i like to bebe entertained by what they say, maybe that is being social but im quiet the whole tiem im around those ppl, while they just talk smile and laugh like everything is cool and the whole time im thinking about something else
any other libras liek that maybe its just me but when im numb i just cant get into conversations cuz if i cant be real imma be quiet, unless you talking about coughing up something

I get what your saying. I like unique/interresting friends but I like having them at a distance. I am pretty engaged in company though, I am typically the one who keeps the social vibe flowing but for me getting to close to most people just leads to dissapointment or judgement them on my behalf.
I can be totally engaged in the company of my friends but don't need or want their company more than on an occasional basis.
I can also mix it up with people very different than me socially but leave it behind once I leave the enviroment. This is something I have found hard for other Libra's to do, if they have strong beliefs that are contrary to another persons character some Libra's just don't care to partake. I'm not quite that judgemental, I like experiencing people with different points of view or life style s (within limits) even if I know that they are in no way compatible with mine. I can switch it on and off.
I'm pretty much the same way. Although the friends I have I've had for more then 20 years but even those friends I can take only so much and don't even get me started on family... to late.
And as much as I hate to say it, I have to agree with nico in that I have the same switch when needed if I'm in that situation as I do enjoy a different point of view on subjects.
I hope that made sense.

that explains everything about the one I keep posting about. That IS it with him. the MANY friends the randomness of who he hangs with and then off and on with me and his disconnect with family at times and the not so connected relationship with them. he's like an as I need basis with the people in his lives. I'm starting to understand him more and for some crazy way feel bad for the him since he seems to be lost but I don't think he is. I mean, do you as Libras feel lost with this sort of feeling. I guess you won't since its a normal function that you do but do you ever feel lonely and not connected with someone since you are the type that likes to be in a relationship right? or at least be with a partner that will be your balance. the more i read i about it the more I feel bad about parting ways BUT if we were meant to be he would have come back to me.
It is true that when Libras pull you in they pull you in. I want that trait! ; )
jshark...i don't know about the others, but i don't feel lost when i'm following my natural socialization cycle (social, asocial, social, asocial). if i'm forced into a social situation when i'm feeling asocial, that's the closest i come to feeling lost, which is why i like to respect my needs. when i want to just have my own company, i find it quite enjoyable. not lost at all, completely at home.
i've got a little thing i'll say about people i really like being around...that i like their company almost as much as i like being alone. and it's true. socializing can be fun, but it's more like a compulsion. it makes me tired after a while.
That's just the way it is for me as well curious visitor. On my last post I may have come across as being anti social but in reality I do like people for the most part and do enjoy the company however I am very comfortable being alone and do enjoy watching things be it peoples interaction or just watching the world go by.
I do like the quote as well as it fits in there just right.

I agree with Curious.
There are very few people I can have around me all the time. Usually it is my romantic love interest. But even for those relationships to flourish, there is little spaces. But I tend to think every relationship needs me time, he time, and time together.

I am very much the same. I have very few "close" friends and those few have been friends for a long time. Generally I am not a social person. I dislike large crowds and feel out of place. In a smaller social setting I do fine. Large bars or clubs... no thanks! A smaller house party (especially if I am hosting) sure! However, a large social setting can be entertaining once in a while just to watch other people. I don't usually want to talk to any of them, but I like to watch how they interact.
