This might be niche, but is anybody else scared they will run out of LOs one day because each time they get a new one, it’s a cooler person?

Let me quickly explain because this might be confusing. I noticed a pattern. My LOs increase in their status and perceived “coolness”. I’m in my mid twenties now and I’ve never been limerent-free. My LOs last anywhere from minimum 2 years to max 5 years.

LO #1: unattractive guy. way too controlling and religious. Bum as well. Super intelligent but nothing special. Not athletic. Not popular. Nothing. Went to a local community college. White man. No close friends.

LO#2: Start of college for me at a normal university (bachelors program). Really handsome frat guy majoring in finance (also white man). Way more popular than the previous guy and had a fun personality. Lots of women liked him. Not the best family life though and he was a tad reserved.

LO#3: A guy from my company after college. VERY handsome. Also a white man. Looks like Matthew McCaughney or however you spell his name. Very popular (even more than the frat guy), tons of friends and constantly traveling, also has a very tight knit family. Average intelligence.

LO#4: A pro baseball player. Incredibly attractive. Also was incredibly intelligent and got 2 masters. He also has a close family and also had loads of friends. The public worshipped him since he was a pro athlete. Latino/white.

LO#5: An Ivy League medical student. Also incredibly attractive (he’s Indian). VERY ATTRACTIVE tbh. Like prob the prettiest face of any man I’ve listed here. He looks like a God. He has so much clout because of how smart and cool he is. He also plays poker and competes in local championships. He’s always traveling and on a yacht somewhere. Also could get any woman in the world. Rich.

Idk what could be better than him in my eyes. I don’t find actual celebrities appealing at all. My LOs are only ever people I can see IRL and aren’t labeled as legit celebrities (like I would never be limerant toward Harry Styles). Idk what can beat a rich hot smart Indian doctor. I’m only in my mid twenties so….we shall see what’s to come.

Is it ever too late to reach out to a friend who you dearly miss and ghosted years ago?

We’re both in our twenties (females), both work corporate, have no kids nor are married. I only say this to get the basics of compatibility out of the way. We’ve always been extremely compatible. We met in college and were close for 4 years. In 2022, we moved and I was in a new city for my first full-time job. She would call me frequently and just talk about men non-stop and I got tired of it. I ghosted her instead of communicating. Like ghosted COLD turkey. I feel terrible. It wasn’t really worth ghosting someone over. The months turned into a year, and then a year turned into 3+ years of zero texts / calls. Some of this was due to me meeting new people and having a new life. I basically wasn’t thinking about her anymore. She tried sending me some stuff on Tik Tok a month later and I never replied to that either.

Now that years have passed, I look back on our friendship and realized she is one of the few people who ever understood me, hyped me up, was open minded and not religious, super non-judgmental about mental health etc. I just miss her. Idk. I’ve been wanting to reach out but am scared she will ghost me. I attempted this with ANOTHER friend a month ago and she left me on read.

I understand ghosting is horrible to do to someone who you are close to but I can’t even explain why I did it. I was just so caught up in my own world that I didn’t feel any type of way about it, but now that I’m way more mature and have learned a lot about life, I realized it was so wrong and I want her in my life again.

I used to have extremely thick hair. So thick to the point I had to go to the hair salon once a year and get it THINNED out. After covid, I lost - not exaggerating - like 50% of my hair I would say. To this day, it’s never grown back and it’s not as thick. Apparently covid passes the blood brain barrier and can permanently mess sh*t up. On top of that, I got vaccinated so who knows if that had any long term effects too (I’m not even a Republican and I sometimes regret getting the vaccine so blindly. I heard about it and got it the minute it came out). Despite being vaccinated, I got a horrible strain 3 months later and was so ill for 4 weeks straight.

I just miss my hair more than anything. I buy wigs sometimes just to feel thick hair on my head again. Wild how long term much damage this did. Who knows what else it did to my body? I guess I should be thankful that my loss of smell wasn’t permanent.

Anybody else here lose their hair years ago?? :(

I’m cancer and water moon, so I get along with most Tauruses VERY well. This shit had me dying. We were in a circle having a serious convo with this random roommate who was super problematic. Everyone was being super sweet and sugar coating stuff, not gonna deny. It gets to my Taurus friend’s turn to speak, and she goes in the most chill slowest voice ever…. “Nobody else is gonna say it, so I am. We think you’re a problem. You’re full of shit and lies. I see right through it.” I was like ope 😭 I nudged her and was like “cmon now”. But yeah that was so funny. I love how blunt y’all are, while also remaining so calm.

I’m Pisces moon. Plz don’t get mad at this post. No I’m not calling us cheaters and players necessarily, but we all know damn well that we constantly love expansion (and on top of that have such a passionate romantic urge), similar to Sagittarius placements. I can’t picture me only being with one person for eternity. Sometimes I randomly fall in love with someone new, which is very common thing that mutable placements experience. Astrology loves to give the aloof/player/non-committal label to Libra and the other air signs, but I genuinely think Pisces placements might be some of the most detached f*ckers I’ve met in my life (including myself).

I know soooo many Pisces / Pisces moons / Pisces Venuses who have been single for years on end but have 10+ flings that keep them occupied (again, including myself). As soon as I fall in love, I detach and get scared of commitment, even at my mature age (I’m in my twenties). Most of us are always either in weird situationships or we’re just straight up rejecting people after playing with them for a bit. My boss is a pisces and he just got married in his late 30s because he couldn’t wrap his head around committing for majority of his life. And actually….now that I’m remembering, I think he mentioned that him and his wife may do swinging (which is very Pisces coded). I guess the way I view it is, we have so much love to give and we’re always so curious and wanting to experience new things.

Curious as to how any of my other Pisces / mutable charts out there are handling love and staying grounded with only one person? I can’t envision it right now for myself :(

Guys…..I am not exaggerating when I tell you that every man that has ever been obsessed with me or in genuine love with me (I’ve experienced both stalkers and real love) is a Capricorn OR they’re Sag/Aquarius suns who have Capricorn placements (since many Sag/Aquarius folk have either Capricorn Mercury, Venus, or Mars).

I have Cancer Sun/Venus and other cancer placements, and every single man that I have wanted to go to the grave with is a Capricorn Venus at a minimum. And no I’m not being biased because this was prior to me even knowing astrology existed. Many of them are also Capricorn suns or moons. I’m a water moon too so it’s a magnet for Capricorn. I’m not some teenager on here who had 2 experiences. I’m in my mid/late twenties now, so I’m talking like 10+ guys over the years. Here are other examples in my personal life:

  1. My mom is Capricorn and my dad is cancer (married for 27 years)
  2. My aunt is Cancer and her long term husband is Capricorn
  3. Every single platonic girlfriend I attract is a Capricorn. It’s actually creepy. Like literally all 6 of them are Cap suns or Cap moons
  4. My brother is Cancer moon and rising and his wife is Capricorn sun.
  5. I could list so many more.

I don’t think there’s any other pairing I’ve noticed more than Capricorn and cancer in my entire life.

I’m a Pisces moon, but this applies to Pisces suns/risings as well.

I’ve noticed a pattern in my life and other Pisces folk I’ve spoken to. We’re in our own world 95% of the time and just go with the flow. But these other non-water placements (esp suns and moons) keep tabs on us so much, it’s exhausting. My worst experience has been with Aquarius moons. They love to hyper analyze water moons are critique the fck out of us, but they won’t say anything for a long time and build resentment. If you say one slight thing to them, the world is over and their ego is crushed and they find a way to make you feel like sht. Aquarius and Capricorn placements do it a ton (uggg sometimes they’re insufferable to be close to, which sucks because I always trust them the most)

I also feel like we have too much humility sometimes. We’re always open to criticism and want to change for the better. We take advice well. But the moment we try to spread our wisdom, we’re harsh and judgemental and negative and all this other bs that isn’t accurate. Or people perceive us as mean (we saw this with Justin Bieber when he lashes out at photographers). Is it because we see things for how they are since we’re the most psychic? We objectively are one of the most wise. We’re the oldest sign and are closest to spiritual realm). Are people uncomfortable with our happiness being in our own world and not conforming to whatever the norm is?

Example: I had a best friend who I had to end things with recently (she’s Cap Sun, Aquarius moon) because I noticed over the past many years of our friendship, she would call me out every 2 years or so. She would sit me down (with no heads up) and basically analyze my behavior and say all horrible things about me (she called me negative which is ironic cuz I’m a sag rising and nobody has ever called me negative in my life lol, she called me judgmental, she said I’m too comfortable being single, and many other harmful things). I thought it was projection because she can’t be alone and has never been single in her life. She also probably can’t stand I’m lucky and make a lot of money on my own while she’s in debt. Mind you, I’ve never once brought up my money to her. She asks. I’ve thought about all the possibilities for the resentment. She makes comments to me to make herself seem better. For example, a couple months ago we were hanging and she goes “idk why I’ve never attracted a bad man but you only seem to attract bad men. I think it’s a you problem“. Mind you, the men I meet aren’t even bad. They’re just players and so I cut them off quick. She’s getting married soon and I’m very much single still. It was a dig. That’s one of hundreds of examples. Yet I still prioritized our friendship for some reason. I’ve never once in our 8+ year friendship called her out for ever sat her down. I think my Pisces moon and sag rising is easily forgiving and we forget things so quick because we simply don’t care.

I genuinely believe Pisces gives and cares wayyyyy too much.
