Aha. Here's the Challenge I've come up with for you Libra girls:
We know you Librans are masters of subtlety so for those of us who are unenlightened, please let us know some subtle ways you would:
-say, "I love you."
-show you're interested in going to the next step----from friend to lover
-reassure another of your love
-ask for help
-ask for a specific gift / item that would be meaningful to you
-share a big secret

ooh, lets see to say i love you would be.. physical contact. a hug . a kiss, playful gestures, just physical contact.
to show interest, i try to be a good listener, ask them about personal things that matter to the person.
reassure .. i would do that special thing i've always done for them, that special thing i've reserved just for them. whether it be a peck on the nose, or giving them a phonecall each day.
ask for help.. i'd just straight out say it.. or if im too uncomfortable.. id go around it hoping they can read my mind.
sharing a big secret would mean ive fully trusted you and know you're not going to tell everyone.. but that hasnt happened yet.
thats my perspective as a libra.

-say, "I love you."
~ I like you
~ I am in love with you
~ You are so my favourite person
~ And wanting to touch and kiss
-show you're interested in going to the next step----from friend to lover
~ Remembering everything you say and then quoting you right back
~ Buying you a present (but nothing expensive)
~ Dress well, make an effort overall in that department. I'll dress the way I think you'd like me to look...(can keep it simple but not shabby therefore)
~ Incidental run-ins
~ Smiles!
-reassure another of your love
~ Constant and consistent attention (=devotion)(Once the green light is given you'll find yourself at the receiving end of this whether you ask for it or not)
~ We look for what you need and give it e.g. if you say to me I Love You a lot then it is a clear sign to me that you would like/need to hear that said to you, too. So you will get it. Part of the mirroring strategy
~ Talk through lyrics of songs (gentle hints basically)
-ask for help
~ Discuss the problem and see what you say. Not ask for help per se
-ask for a specific gift / item that would be meaningful to you
~ Would not do that so quickly. But after we're well established and the finances are merged etc. you will understand from the look in my eyes when I want what I see in front of me (I'm talking retail here)
-share a big secret
~ This is where it gets interesting. I am more embarassed about sharing an emotion with you than a crap fact. Crap fact comes out in one sentence without any tears whatsoever. If there's a need to share. But it's expressed more as an FYI
~ Sharing emotions or how you FEEL, can take years and years
Hope this helps
(oh and, we're not queens, we're princesses - queen somehome does not fit)

1) ask advice on something that I already know the answer to because I *want* your insightful input ... have a group of people serenade you ... that wasn't so subtle but funny. remember every detail of what you said. take a VERY keen interest in your life. Be helpful and do little things for you.
2) not sure as I haven't been in that position. probably find excuses to spend time with the person.
3) compliments, compliments, compliments ... you're pretty. You look great in that shirt.
4) ... ummm ... I just ask. I might lay the problem out and just wait for your response, action without actually asking so helping is your idea
5) ummm ... I dunno
6) ummmm ... I dunno

kennyq, 'Nice to hear from you! I'm SHOCKED at my patience---but also recognize it's an area I need work on. So I am learning without denying. I understand where you're coming from---you can't change your nature!---but at the same time, this woman has brought things into my life no other woman has (as I have hers). Attracted to her and accepting of her. I'm just searching for understanding of HER nature here to know her better, figure out how she "ticks" and see what / how I can contribute to her life. Yes, I lead from my head and brain, but I seem to be one of those more quiet Aries who has delved into soulical things also. (Y'know, music, art, spiritual literature---heck, ASTROLOGY!). Yes, Aries will stay Aries and if SHE doesn't accept that, then I know I have done everything I know to do--to at least share who I am.
(Okay, head hurts now---too deep, too deep. . .reaches for another cup of coffee. . .)

by the way ..
my libra friend shares emotional stuff to me and now i think he shared a "crap fact" as per above about this girl from his neighborhood that he likes but he doesn't know how to go on because he thinks she likes him too but is not very sure...
but somehow i felt he just made that up...and the girl was really me but of course i am not his neighbor..why would he share that to me..trying to gauge my reaction?
and just trying to get insights from you guys..
would you make up stories to get the other persons POV or to make the other person open..and know about her love life...as i haven't opened up to hm in a while?

'fine, I'm not Libra (an Aries boy), but I've run into that too with Libra Girl I like. She'll just say things that sound too vague and don't ring true; like I'm on "hold" in certain areas of her life while she's still checking me out. I HAVE caught her on bizarre lies, but she always has an excuse why she said it in "that way."
We were ice skating and I asked her if she had ever broken anything. Seemed a logical question while slipping and sliding. And she told me, "No." About a week later she mentioned how bad it was one summer when she was a child after she had broken her arm. Hmmmm. So I told her, "I thought you said you'd never broken anything." She said, "Oh, that's not what I meant. I wasn't sure what you were asking." Huh? Then she told me how she had broken her other arm once. And broken her leg once. I knew how Alice felt in Wonderland. And didn't know how to respond.
I don't know if that helps, 1. It's an experience I noted.

1_fine_gem, if a Libra man feels comfortable with you he will tell all his business... Trust, my libra friend does, the funny thing is they are not always avaialable as we are when we need to talk, which isn't often, as I am a scorp, who tends to listen to everyone else, however, keep my issues to myself.
I don't know if he is lying or not about the girl or if he really means you - they do like for you to read between the lines so, who knows. However, wether they want a serious relationship with you right now or not, they will get jealous about finding out you are spending time with other guys...

Keep my issues to myself (we are secretive) except for here. I seem to tell it all...

Strange that...coz my LIbran tells me everything - stuff I wasn't even ready to hear LOL (just out of NOWHERE it'll come up and he'll just go into great detail about stuff)...and he likes to drag stuff out of me...and yes its dragging - as a Leo, I hold my cards close. He wants to know all about my exes, childhood, yada yada....I dunno how to do that - sheesh....perhaps that's why he's a little more aloof than I'd like but Im trying....if I saw him more often perhaps I would open up more but these weeks that go by and no communication makes me clam up for next time *shrugs*
1 fine gem, I dunno if you can buy a Libran brain....no doubt they'd tell you it was priceless anyway LOL
Yup, I love to interrogate ?uh, ask about my boyfriend's past. I want to know all about his history in relationships and life. But I also love to talk about mine, in detail. (He once threw a pillow at my face to stop me from going on and on about one particular mundane topic. Alas, I caught the pillow and continued my story without pause. Ha!)
1_fine-gem, I will say that Libra's are not known for lying (unless we're implementing our "charm" by complimenting your new haircut or pair of shoes). But we do exaggerate, and we may use manipulation to acquire information.
And you're right Chatz... The Libran brain: more priceless than any Mastercard tag-line.
1.say "i love you" : i want to be with him everyday,every hour...or else say "i want you"
2.i dont usually go from friend to lover...i always show the other person that i dont want him only as friend from the start.
3.ask for help: helppppp!!!!!
4.gift : "ohhh i like that a lot"
5.secret : i never share my biggest secrets

* as per above about this girl from his neighborhood that he likes but he doesn't know how to go on because he thinks she likes him too but is not very sure...
You are a friend and that is how he sees you.
* would you make up stories to get the other persons POV or to make the other person open..and know about her love life...as i haven't opened up to hm in a while?
No. I would come up with reasons to contact the person .. have questions I can answer myself, but I wouldn't make up a love interest unless I REALLY wanted the other person to know I wasn't interested and was trying to tell them in a nice way without hurting them.

As a libra maybe he's saying goodbye in his subtle ways, and genlty laying me off so as not to hurt my feelings. making me realize things, my own time. I am fine and I apppreciate his concern. I will not bother him again cause I care about him. It's thoughtful of him to do that.
I will find someone in my own level. Our friendship will remain in the quiet corner of our hearts and grow each day apart.
goodbye.

Well, I am being interogated quite a bit. And now she has LOTS of questions for me, she says. And I've been very nochalant when she's "too busy" to see me---I think it's frustrating her because now SHE is talking about plans in the future, after she gets a couple things done. AND she's sharing her frustrations with me, asking my opinion, etc.---and, as you know nic', I'm being a good listener. NOT forcing my opinions, just being honest. It seems I have HER on the run now!
I bought her some flowers, just a bright country bouquet, to fill a large vase I gave her a few weeks ago. Went to visit at her place and there was A DOZEN RED ROSES sitting next to my "humble" bouquet. Roses from a mystery admirer. She indicated she knew who they were from. I didn't say a thing. She kept saying to me how much she LOVED the bouquet I gave her. And, hmmmm, I don't see "HIM" anywhere!?
