So being that I am a Libra I abhor being alone and somehow always stumble upon new relationships along my journey in life ^.^ It just so happens I got tangled up in the critical eyes of a Virgo man. Now, being that I'm a huge pleaser I want to accomadate my significant other as much as possible. Please can anyone tell me the best way to go about making this relationship work? The critisism is killing meh >.< Here are our stats lol
I'm sorry I didn't preview my post beforehand. If you just imagine a space in between the Me and Him and our signs/planets that would be great. I hope it's readable. The first one is mine and the one right next to it is his of course! Thanx again! ^_^
venus scorpio and virgo are supposed to be a good combination ... as for his criticism ask him to tone this down, ask him to be gentle with his comment because they either hurt you of get on your nerves and if he is any decent he will strive and will eventually cut on it
you can always use his sharp and discerning mind to get advice or tips by asking him about things
I was married to a Libra for 20+ years - first marriage for both of us.
I'm a huge pleaser I want to accomadate my significant other as much as possible.
That's your first mistake. My Libra let me get my way TOO OFTEN, and over time I wound up running virtually everything in our lives. Not because I'm a controlling bastard, but because Virgo thinks his way is the best way, and if you don't stand your ground, he'll reorganize every square inch of it for you!
The critisism is killing me...
... and it will only get worse over time.
My current Scorpio wife doesn't put up with my bullshit. She's actually very patient, but if I start grumping about something not done right, she either: 1. Tells me I can do it myself; 2. Ignores me, but shoots me a "Don't you dare bitch again!" look; 3. Tells me to shut the fuck up.
L+V can be a great couple - we had lots of happy years - but L has to make V use his compromising skills, or it won't work.
If your VG won't ease up, don't get too serious about him. There are other guys out there who are a better match for you.
"and somehow always stumble upon new relationships along my journey in life ^.^ It just so happens I got tangled up in the critical eyes of a Virgo man." ........ I'm not sure what this means. If it is implying that you are a social butterfly who finds herself fluttering from one relationship to another, and at this time you find yourself at a resting period witht his Virgo man .... then I would say not to even worry about getting along with him with any depth, if you know that it is in your nature to be off flying towards the next person once you find yourself alone because ..
.. being with a Virgo, means being alone.
I don't mean in physical sense, or in support sense .. but, in attention kind of sense. They are alone inside of their heads, and are't prone to share with people the intensity of what goes on inside of this head, unless the other person is one of worth to them to be able trust in sharing this.
And if you flutter from relationship to relationship easily .. then Virgo will never trust in you to share wht is in his head, and will stay silent, unsupportive, emotionally unexpressive = you being alone, you being alone = fluttering off to a new adventure.
A circle.
Second ... and this is 2-fold .. a Virgo critisizes in others, areas they need for themselves. For example, say he bitches about your eating habits .... he will critisize this NOT because of your health, but, because of his own. A Virgo doesn't TELL their partner what it is they want or need in their lives .. their love or just feelings for a person is an extraction from you, it's a vicarious existence of sorts .. it's through you, in what they get out from you, like a reflection.
So, since they live for themselves, through you .... then he would bitch about your eating habits, because he wants to eat healthy for himself.
He would want YOU to do as he would wish for himself to happen, so that when he extracts from you ... it will be for his benefit.
Can you see what I'm saying here because it's kind of difficult to put into words?
Anywho, simple thing that pissed me off with my Libra ex were her very cold fronts.
She would never show her emotions upfront and often left cutting remarks with no sign of apology. Apology would come later.
Show him your emotions, just in a structured way.
His criticisms are inevitable. Simply state that you are uncomfortable with his deliver and ask for him to be more gentle.
Virgos are people of service too. So give him the chance to please you. Ask for massages, hugs and other things you may like, and be sincerely grateful for it.
I don't mean in physical sense, or in support sense .. but, in attention kind of sense. "
what do you mean by this P .. I get this feeling that my girl feels this way around me but I thought this was due to my vagueness which made her trust in me less so she doesn't show her feelings around me
"He would want YOU to do as he would wish for himself to happen, so that when he extracts from you ... it will be for his benefit."
I wouldn't frame it this way .. it's more like virgo will treat their partner the way they treat themselves, if they are tough on themselves then they will be on you, if they are relaxed with themselves then they will be with you ... either way it bites us in the arse, if we are harsh then we are just projecting our lack of self esteem on you and if we are relaxed then we lack fire and determination!
What they want is a contradiction: On the one hand, a woman wants a warm, sensitive, communicative guy who's in touch with his feelings; but at the same time, a woman wants a man who's strong, confident, independent, and resilient - she wants an amalgamation of She-Man & He-Man, of Carson Kressley & David Boreanaz...
Such a man does not exist in the real world...
So, what do they do?
They focus prodigious energy on turning Typical Guy into Ideal Man, and often grow weary, frustrated, and bitchy during this external & unending pregnancy...
