Hi everyone,
I'm not exactly new - posted on here about 2 years ago (where has the time gone!), but have been looking at the messageboards again recently. Remember many of you from the last time I was on here : )
Just thought I'd throw a penny in the purse as I have been wondering about it lately. Just to recap: I'm taurus. Worked with a virgo guy two years ago (he is now 29) - had this amazing relationship (just friends, but connected on so many levels)...everyone thought we were perfect for each other and couldn't understand why it didn't go any further. This went on for 2 years (neither of us dated anyone else) and me (so naive and kind of shy) was so scared of rejection - we just never discussed it outright.
During the second year of our friendship, him and a friend decide to go tour OZ for a year and he made me promise to come and find him there once I have to leave the UK (I'm south african and my visa was going to expire while he was in OZ). So me and 2 friends went travelling (first NZ and then OZ). He wanted to travel together and even before I came he told me that he made a mistake - that we should've been together etc. etc. Mid-way through our travels things all of a sudden changed and i suspected there was another girl (don't know how serious)
By this time I had had enough - didn't confront him with it, just packed my bags early the next morning and left, without saying anything - with full intention to never have contact again. He knew how I felt and what I thought, because my one friend was still travelling with them and I'm sure she filled him in.
So that was that, I eventually came back to SA and have not had any contact with him, until December 2007 - An email from him (exactly 1 year after i had left) trying to brake the ice (as he puts it). Tells me he misses me a lot, have been thinking about when I left a lot all this time, which made him very angry then, as how could I leave like that, knowing we will never see each other again. Though he 'understands why I left'. Then goes on to tell me what he's been up to, how much I would just love where he lives now (in UK) and how he hopes we can put everything behind us and forget about it. What's that about??

"if she chooses to take what she can get before jerking him off - what is wrong with that?"
Well, if that's the case at, ahem, hand, there's nothing wrong with that. Unless money exchanged, ahem, hands, of course, in which case it's illegal(unless you live in holland, or Las Vegas, or etc.).
"they should be made to sing for their supper - are you suggesting rape or something???"
I believe he was suggesting music, which is unlike rape(unless he is suggesting she sings such Black-Eyed Peas classics as "London Bridge", in which case, close enough).

Hello all,
My concern regards my good Cancer male friend who is good hearted but he is always whining about something. Like 'Look heres something useless'
He is like Victor Meldrew sometimes..
He always finds something or someone to be negative about.
Is this a common Cancer trait? I know Cancers are moody and these moods are changeable but most of the time he is complaining and whingeing.
NB: I love the way he is.. I just want to understand him better.

Hello fellow Scorpios,
I am a typical Scorpio..intense, jealous, secretive, want to be in control..etc
I find that people rarely ever approach me.. and I dont always understand why. I look sweet and I smile quite a lot but I am reserved too. Im surely not boisterous.
But I find I am treated invisibly when I am in a room full of people. I am a better conversationalist on a one to one basis. I hate gossip and dont engage in it.
Fellow Scorps help me understand myself?
Thanks in advance.
Hi DearDiary,
What you said is exactly what I'm wondering - I had often in the past told him that I don't want to keep contact once I have to leave the UK, because in my head I just thought that if he could not be bothered to just see what we would be like together (even if it didn't work out) there is no way that I could torture myself further and keep in contact. He couldn't understand why I would just not want to have any contact anymore.
He's also told me in the past that he doesn't believe in long distance relationships - that it can work. I disagreed of course, but we didn't address the problem. We made half-hearted attempts to talk about things, but I just got so scared - neither one of us could ever just be straight. I promised myself I would never be liket that ever again with anyone - from now on they will know how I feel.
I think it just feels awful, because even now I can tell I still have feelings for him, though I would NEVER have contacted him and it did get easier to put things out of my head - and then all of a sudden, he emails. He even said that leaving the way I did, must've meant that our friendship didn't mean as much to me as to him. Honestly, is he completely stupid? It's exactly the opposite - I left because I felt so very much for him, and knew that I would never ever be able to be just friends. He knew how much I hurt - couldn't he just let go? I tell you, when a taurus falls in love, she falls so hard, it's difficult to get up again. BTW, I did reply - a short one - just told him what I should've said such a long time ago and left it at that.
I sympathise with you so much, DearDiary. How do you feel about your situation?

Yeah, Cancer men whine alot. LOL! You HAVE to be the stronger of the two because he can get VERY weak with his feelings at times.

Oh sorry CB, well I don't know, I know alot of Leo males and once they fall in love and you are faithful to them, they are there for the long haul. The men I know have wives who they are very faithful too.
