Posted by mars_in_cappyI agree to a certain extent. Desire is not enough it needs to be backed with action but I feel that is slightly unrelated to what you’re referring to. Thanks for your input and best of luck to you!
The Universe has a sense of humour you know! Whenever i get roasted by her (Universe) i chalk it up. Maybe that's why Buddha says to let go of desire, maybe it's in our better interests to let things happen, rather than will or desire them to happen. Maybe that's the prob with desire.. We desire it, but it takes a while to happen, so by the time we get it, we're over it.
I still want the job or business idea (and sucessful business) though.

So I currently have a house party going on in my 10th house.
Saturn and Pluto refuse to go home anytime soon.
...well this makes sense on why I'll probably will have have step up to take a Presidency Position for an Organization I'm apart of when before I wasn't planning to go for it.
It wasn't cause of lack of ambition, more of practicality and time management reasons.
Who here is good a chart reading? I have read my own chart but my Cap Bias hasn't been checked so my Neptune influence is whispering sweet "On Point Playboy President" things to me.
you ever casually swiped right?
not thinking much about it, not serial killer-faced is all
by looks he must be 4, maybe 6 if you're generous
after a tiring day of doing nothing at work, you just chill with your phone
then a 4 nags you for even more pics than what's already on profile
barely 2 mins in a convo, incredulously asking why you're unattached
so you quickly unmatch and take a long nap

" Deepa* grew up in western India, and when she was 19, she fell in love for the first time—with her college teacher. That Deepa's love for an older woman went unrequited wasn't very surprising. More unusual was that unlike most crushes, Deepa felt no sexual desire. At all. In fact, the idea of her teacher's body made Deepa cringe. And yet she loved her: her mind, her ideas, the reassuring beep of occasionally returned text messages.
It's not like Deepa never felt any desire, though. There were other women she frequently masturbated to: basketball teammates fervently kissing; Finnish ice hockey players warming one another on cold nights; women masturbating at home, bodies bathed in late-afternoon sunlight. Most of them had slightly masculine figures. Several were athletes. And all of them lived on Literotica.com—considered by some to be the internet's largest repository of erotica.
When people first began to use the term asexuality in the mid-20th century, it was widely seen as a complete lack of sexual desire. But as more people began to claim the identity for themselves in the late 90s, its definitions broadened to include a whole breadth of experiences.
"I feel sexual arousal, but I have not felt sexual attraction for anyone to date," said Deepa, now 23. "I am more inclined to have romantic attractions toward women, but I see attraction in terms of ideas, intellect, and emotional attachment. 'Body' is something I cannot think of." "
Well I guess your harem refuses to let you go~
Anyway, while I can see how Asexuality could be seen as a viewing of this mindset, me personally that isn't the case.
As for others, could be a possibility. Though to really get into this post, I'd have to split sexual desire, emotional and intellectual depth and intimacy building into separate parts and then explain how they each differ and have overlap.
Unless someone else feels like dying on that hill.

I need some insight and probably a blunt truth. I started seeing a Taurus man a little over a year ago. I was very clear with him from day one that I was only interested in something real and he said he was too. We took things very slow, as I’ve learned is the way with a Taurus.
We saw each other once or twice a week typically but most of the time we were spending time at his place. Part of the reason for not going out together much is because he is the high school basketball coach in our small town. One of my 2 high school age daughters is a cheerleader for the basketball team, and I’m very involved with sports boosters and things at school. We agreed that it was best to keep things private because of all the grey area there.
Things moved very slow with us and we never officially put a title on our relationship. He has 2 kids with 2 different women and has amicable relationships with both. I also have an amicable relationship with my ex husband/kids’ father so I didn’t have a problem with this. Until November.
In November, a picture was brought to my attention of him and his younger son’s mom at a party. They were standing next to each other, he had his arm around her shoulders and she was holding that hand. Now, part of me felt like it wasn’t a huge thing because I know they’re friendly and part of me felt like it crossed some boundaries. So I sent him the pic and asked about it. He had a very reasonable explanation that they are both friends with the hosts, didn’t know the other would be at the party and that she asked someone to take the pic.
But he had also previously told me that she still very much has feelings for him and brings up getting back together frequently. He said that he always tells her he doesn’t want that. So I told him that the pic looked like there was more to it than just running into each other at a party. He apologized and said he should have told me about it.
So things were fine after that for a while. He told me on thanksgiving that when he stopped by to see his son, they took a family pic together. I appreciated that he told me and we left it at that.
That brings us to yesterday. Another pic was brought to my attention. It happened to be the pic from thanksgiving. He’s sitting on the couch with his son on his lap on one side and her on the other. I was pissed. I sent it to him and basically told him I’m not interested in wasting my time if there’s somewhere else he’d rather be. I support him having good relationships with his kids’ moms, but this looks like more than that. And I said if you want me in your life, I’d also like to have good relationships with your kids’ moms. I also brought up my ex and how we get along but have boundaries, so a pic like that would never happen.
He called on his break at work to tell me this was the pic he told me about on thanksgiving. He also said he needed to think about some things and would call me later.
He called last night and told me he needs to take a step back from everything and figure his life out. He said up until that morning, he thought everything was going good between us and that he wants me. But he needs to figure out everything else. He said this isn’t what he wants. I asked if that meant we were done completely or if this was kind of on hold until he figures things out. He said he didn’t know. I asked if he wanted to be with his sons mom and he said he didn’t know. I asked what he wants from me and he didn’t know. He told me I’m everything he wants in a woman, but he needs to take a step back. He did share a lot with me that he’s never said before - to anyone. About how he wants to be more involved in his kids’ lives and he wants to change jobs and maybe quit coaching so he can watch his older son play basketball. I gave him my honest opinion about a few things. He told me he appreciates me and that means more to him than it maybe does for other people. He said he didn’t want to hurt me, he just needed to figure things out. I said I feel like I’m gonna get a call from you in 6 months and he said I’d hear from him before that but feel free to curse him out.
So I don’t know how to process this. Obviously we ended things and it hurts. This isn’t what I want. I respect that he needs to figure things out for himself and obviously if he still has feelings for his ex, I don’t want to be a second choice. I just don’t know if the things he said mean there’s any hope of him coming back to me or if I should just move on. I love him and want him in my life but I don’t want to feel like I’m convincing someone to want to be with me. Any Taurus’ out there willing to shed some light? I just don’t want to be naive and think there’s hope of this was just a nice way of saying it’s not you, it’s me. Help!

I’m shallow and usually go for 7 and above, which puts limits on my dating life.
I was picking up 3 guys at a time and trying my luck. I ended up dating 6 guys on the site and 2 of them still contact me randomly.
Then I deleted the app.
I’ve never unmatched the person.
I was also surprised that men lie about their looks. I was so nervous about the type of pictures I put up. Making sure the filters weren’t too much. And then I meet up with these guys and some were way older looking then their pics or 25 lbs heavier. Smh.

Posted by tizianihey man. No harem here, does such a thing even exist nowadays on DXP? Personally I am on the divine and holy path now lol
And no worries, I just wanted to post the counter-point that may be midly panic-inducing for people who are more visceral. To tell you the truth, the article depressed me a little. I mean I can relate to a lot of it - being more turned on by the idea of sex than the act itself - but that doesn't mean you just stop there, label yourself and say "well that's me done for a lifetime." My 2 cents.
Divine & Holy Path?
Vedic Version, Christian Version or New Age Spiritual Version?
Fair point Mr. Libra. Isn't it said Air-Signs have that trend of liking the *IDEA* of sex more than the actual act itself? I believe the more Fiery and Watery types would be the "visceral" ones due to how emotionally detached and dry that post sounded about a topic that is seen as something that should be filled with passion and feeling.
My earth placements give the perspective of separating the actions from the thoughts and feelings. They can be in different places to me and make sense, while others would find the idea appalling or sociopathic. Honestly not everyone is built to show and feel love in reckless abandon where they're helpless to all the feelings and loin a blazing romance so sought after and idealized these days. It's great to experience but it's not practical or rational in the least.
