ive been paying social security for 30 + years and it will more than likely be gone before i retire..
i don't dislike millennials. i do think the parents failed to instill many values etc.. latch key kids, due to 2 working parents or single parent homes. We created it i guess.
I do have a hard time with the lack of or seeming lack of accountability i see and the outlandish sense of entitlement. Maybe because parents didn't hold them accountable and gave them everyting? i dunno.
That's just my 2 cents and i know it wil be trashed, but again i don't hate millineials- i think we can all learn a great deal from each other.
I agree.
I tried my best to instill accountability and responsibility in my millennial kids. They seem pretty good with it.
You swear you wanna act like you didn't recently get a new job for free.
What do you mean for free?
Not free, but I think there's a general tendency for companies to prefer hire people with a lot of experience. I think in some cases, it might be relatively easier for someone in an older generation to get into new positions than it is for college graduate because the former had been in the workforce for a long time.click to expand
It's called being in the workforce for 30 years. Of course, we have experience. And let me tell, that experience WASN'T free. I've worked my butt off to get there.

My Virguy friend is like this, always asking me questions but never revealing anything about himself. Why do Virgos expect the entire blueprint as you say, but don't show their cards?
Do they know it can seem hypocritical?
Here's the deal.
The "don't show their cards" smacks of trust issues and gameplay. Virgos don't do either. However, Virgos have this thing about being naive and oblivious with people because we wrongly assume others are as pure in intention as most of us are. As a result, you have to learn to gauge people.
About asking questions..while there is a strong inquisitive nature in us..it's curiosity more than any scheme at uncovering weaknesses or whatever people are afraid of. We seek like minded people or..not even like minded in general. Each of us has a value system we hold dear and we surround ourselves mainly with people who fit in that system.
When the Virgo asks questions, do you ask questions back? Is it a conversation going both ways?
If you do and he doesn't reply, it's likely because:
1) Rapport hasn't been established between the two of you.
2)Your tone seems "off"
3)Your questions are loaded (for example we're still on a casual level and I ask you what your favorite icecream is and I get a question back like..."Do you feel there is a God above?". That's a lot of me to expand on and it would shift the mood of the conversation from light to heavy talk and...I don't feel we are on the terms to discuss that yet)
4) He sees any hint of manipulation (not saying you do it, but we analyze intent and if the intent isn't just an exchange of ideas but building on ammunition..we won't go there)
5) You strike him as "Fixed" in your beliefs. He feels there's no natural flow.
6) You're just a person on a slide he's taking apart and figuring out. But then that's not friendship.
7)Something about you doesn't ellicit trust in him.
..etc
If you weren't being a dramatic fire moon with the "always never" and he literally NEVER reveals anything I am leaning towards either 1) or 6)
Is it hypocritical? Depends on the why.
Solution: (playful vibe)
"Hey I'd like to know more about you
" "Why?"
"Well you know a lot about me and it's unfair to be at a disadvantage
" ....It's weird to me because all Virgos I know talk up a storm with partners and friends. I'd pay up any partner of a Virgo that has stumbled upon the silent type. Really doubt they exist.

Since we both have the same Sun and Moon I'm curious, which dominates most often?
You're an Aries Moon?!?!?! I had no idea.
I'll get over the giddiness and edit with a longer reply once I think about it.
Added:
Hmm our Aries Moon in matters of the heart vs the Virgo Sun... it's harder for me to gauge because I have Moon conjunct Mars so if I feel it...you will know it because I act it. I think the conjunction overthrows my Sun more than the Aries Moon by itself.
I think the Aries influence lends people with placements here a type of charisma...and it also makes us react viscerally almost. Like...I feel it down my spine, it's lightning hitting me and coursing through my blood. And I get this type of zingggggg with every person that played an important part in my life.
It helps shortcircuit our self-defeating, insecure reasoning mechanisms. Not that it overthrows it because the analysis is still at the root of it..but it won't allow it get sidetracked into negative self-sabotaging patterns. Reasoning is never far behind but it's like I feel my way around a person more than I think my way around them.
It's a weird combo because it's an inconjunct...so it's not like we have a grasp on either/or. But my chart meshes well with inconjunct energy for some reason.
It comes across as this...instead of the Virgo "let me see you cross items on my list of things I value and then I'll consider you"
@MoonButter,
I will boycott ALL seafood restaurants (Yes, even Red Lobster, dam them and their cheddar bay biscuits, too).
I will be the eternal slave of a Cancer.

He's assessing the situation.
He's in hibernation mode.
It sounds like you caught him off guard.
He may not have initially seen you in this light, and may be contemplating it.
Back off.
Give him time and space to reach out to you.
I told him this 2 months ago the first time and he did some things in the past few months that made it seem as if he liked me. He might be thinking it through or something but I don't think I caught him off guard.
So just leave him be for the moment and if he wants to talk, he'll do that on his own time? Sounds reasonable

I read and researched the subject
And while looking for the essence of my name I came across a site that gave me an amazing and accurate video analysis
