Can't just be me dealing

This topic was created in the The Powder Room forum by virgoOPPP on Sunday, March 20, 2022 and has 15 replies.
Why does a guy's need for a constant stream of ego stroking so reminiscent of a fading hollywood star or a neglected housewife's need for validation? These dudes just why.


You can do your own thing as a woman and have all the hobbies in the world, respect their privacy, time and schedule; give them all the space they could ever want; be as independent as you can be; let them dictate your bedtimes and keep track of your phone and online activities; defend them from friends and family who tell you that you deserve better.


never a bad word from you, no demands, no phone checking, no gps tracking, no controlling your comings and goings, no financial expectations. but their need for validation is bottomless.


like why? sad is life when you're not a clingy, codependent drama-stirring gold digger which is what i wanna be in the next life. mah one true dream.


Pisces sun/Cap moon: "What if I like another girl? You should fight for me." **uhh bruh it's been 2 weeks i'm not really sure i'm even 'there' yet


Cap sun/Pisces moon: "Two women sent me nudes and trying to have sex with me. What are you doing right now?!" **angrily asks me over the phone while i'm just cleaning the apartment just coz i text back too slow like am i cheating coz i don't get jealous?


Pisces sun/Libra moon: "There was this girl back in my village who would bring me cake when I was sick." **then says he lost his wallet so can't afford meal 🤣😂


“defend them from friends and family who tell you that you deserve better.”

If you have to always defend them, they’re not good for you. You know it, you deserve better.

Yeah it kills the vibe, honestly.
No.1 you made the most virgo woman post of all time. Yall are naturally submissve YET naturally choosy. Something about these dudes that you're choosing. What phase in life are you at? And what are looking for? Free ya self from your expectations and standards. Being a virgo isnt about being discriminatory....its about swift thinking. Think on ya feet. Then eliminate. Or....do the other virgo thing. The mutable earth mercury ruled thing that requires honesty. Within that you'll find ya answer

You have to find out why and help yourself heal from that. 💯

Just dont ever settle. If he was up to par ya virgo senses wouldn't be going off
Girl, you have got to look into why you easily attract these low value guys. I don’t know very many Virgo males or females except my Virgo female cousin. She’s extremely picky but ironically has awful taste in guys.

picking projects?


maybe the neediness was attractive initially.
Your passivity or shall we say your lack of passion could become a problem for Pisces sun or moons. We are high….ahem….highly enthusiastic people, especially when in love. And yes, ego strokes should be part of the package, sorry. If our partner is not able to make us feel like a queen or king, who is going to do that….our neighbour? 👸🏻


Echoing what the others have said: I think it's time you do a deep-dive and ask yourself why you're attracting these types of men.


There is a lesson to be learned here or you're going to keep attracting the same type of men.


I used to be the same until I did some cliché soul-searching and started to work on myself.
The signs you listed dabble in femininity.


They act as if a girl would.


Passive aggressive, stir the pot, making you jealous.
I used to get these kind of antics with Scorpio and Taurus men. Particularly Venus in Taurus


They want to be chased and loved on.
