We met in a very unconventional way. Wondering if anyone can get it right

Just had a very strange conversation with my boyfriend. Left me feeling unsettled. Curious if there’s anything going on in the sky that might be affecting us right now.

Somebody gave him my number and represented it as their own. Neither of us have ever met this person. I’m still trying to get my head around it. The very first card I pulled had me cackling. I would love to hear an outsiders opinion on the cards I pulled.

Two different synastry charts. One being with an ex-wife, the other being with the new girlfriend. I’ve omitted the birth times of both women because only one is known. Based on this information, can you tell which one is which? And which one holds the proverbial key to happiness?

I feel like I read it accurately and I think they were just trolling, but I’d love a second opinion.

I already know the answer, but I’m wondering if any of you fine folks can figure it out based on our relationship chart

I was curious if my cards could reflect back the way that I met my boyfriend. I don’t wanna give anything away, but I’m wondering if an objective party will get the same read as me because I clearly already know the answer.

The answer:
We met back in September. He was a wrong number text. He was looking to buy something of an intimate nature from somebody he connected with on Reddit. They gave him my number instead of their own. For some reason, I still don’t quite understand, I decided to play along. Every other day of the year, I would’ve blocked this person immediately, but I didn’t. It got very sexual very fast. And then we both discovered that we actually liked talking to each other. I didn’t know what he looked like for the first couple of weeks, but I felt myself starting to fall for him anyway. We discovered that we lived in the same city and were the exact same age, off by just a month. We also realized that we had been in each other’s orbit for at least 20 years, but had somehow never actually met before. When we finally did, it was instant recognition. I didn’t believe in love at first sight until I met him.

Some backstory..

I had been single for 18 years up until this point. By choice. I had a very traumatic relationship in my 20s. Being alone felt safer. And I had gotten to the point in my life where I was OK with being single for the rest of it.

He, however, had been in a relationship with someone for the last 18 years. Married for 10 of them, with a 10-year-old son. The marriage was dead though. He had been sleeping on the couch for the last five years. Staying in the family home just so he could have access to his son.

Both of us had stifled our sexuality for years. He decided to explore a kink of his for the very first time and it led him straight to me.

Seems like the universe threw both of us at each other and said “HERE! This is your person!”

I’m blue, he’s orange.

The last couple of weeks have been pretty intense. Romantically, sexually, emotionally, etc. I’ve felt a powerful shift that has brought us closer. He seems to have felt it too. Any insights explaining this would be most welcome. I’ve included our synastry chart and our composite chart. Thank you!

I swear, a lot of the time I know exactly what he’s feeling without him having to say a word. Whether I’m with him or not. We regularly text each other at the exact same moment about the exact same subject. He will mention two unrelated things to me and I can trace them back to a memory of his from years ago that he told me about in an offhand comment. The strangest and most fulfilling connection I’ve ever had.

Edit: i’m the Libra, he’s the Scorpio

Astro seek says it’s in the fourth house, but other sites say it’s in the third house. Any other insights into my chart would be welcome as well.

Apologies for the terrible picture. I’m experiencing a power outage right now so I thought I would have some fun with tarot.

I pulled the moon, three of cups, six of wands, with three of pentacles at the bottom of the deck

My initial basic read is that it started out with an unexpected emotional impact, moving into genuine companionship, with renewed confidence. And the three of pentacles has been the slow build, brick by
brick.

This does seem to align with my experience. When I met him, he was broken. Going through a divorce, not trusting anyone. I’ve spent months retraining his nervous system. It seems like we’re currently in a very good place. We’re best friends. We’re each other‘s
person. And we’re seemingly heading into calmer waters.

Can anyone help me look at this objectively?

Was visiting my boyfriend‘s cats while he was at work and sent a picture for proof of life. Couldn’t have timed it better.

We’ve been seeing each other for approximately eight months. He recently gave me a key to his apartment and yesterday, on our way home from a day trip, we made a detour to a little stretch of river where he used to camp with his dad as a child. His dad passed a few years ago. He showed his son this piece of river and they had a little memorial for him a while back. And now he’s shown me. I already know it’s big. I would love to know if anyone has anything else to say on it.

It tastes and smells completely normal. Just like the day I bought it. How in the world is this possible?
