Leos can bring endless amounts of fun and romance into a relationship. They can also be passionately generous with their hearts, time, energy and money. But what if your Leo isn’t resembling any of this sign’s typical positive traits? What if your Leo likes to play mind games, is stingy (or worse, hot and cold) with his or her affections, dishonest or disloyal? If this is the case, then you’re in love with an immature Leo.
An immature Leo is one of the hardest signs to deal with in love, because when things are good, they’re soooo good that it almost makes it worthwhile to put up with the more difficult aspects of the immature Leo’s personality. They are usually very charming, which they can use to persuade you to see the pros of giving them their way all the time. However, this is the exact opposite of what will help them grow up and learn how to consider others in love. Like their astrological representation, the Lion, they believe themselves to be the Kings (or Queens) of the Jungle. When you cater to this belief, the immature Leo will take advantage and get stuck in the “Gimme, ’cause I deserve it” mode. They will take everything you have to offer and still want more. Nothing you do will ever be enough to convince them you are the love of their lives. The more insecure a Leo is, the more arrogant and inconsiderate he or she will act.
Ironically, the only thing this kind of Leo will respect (or respond to) is someone who has the courage to walk away. They may initially view your walking away as a sign that you don’t love them enough, but eventually they will come to respect you for not taking anymore of the crap they know they’ve been dishing out to you. (Because they’re very aware of how to leave a good impression, Leos know when they’re mistreating someone. Sidenote: RUN, don’t walk, if your Leo doesn’t care at all that he or she is disappointing you.)
As Leo’s partner, you might have come to expect that Leo won’t be able to survive without the daily doses of Vitamin A (affection), Vitamin C (compliments), Vitamin D (devotion) and Vitamin E (excitement) they’ve come to depend on from you. However, even immature Leos are very self-sufficient when left to their own devices. Either they will find someone else who will enable their “me, me, me” attitude or they will learn how to depend on themselves to get what they want. Doing the latter will help them gain the confidence that will bring out the generosity, loyalty, and lovableness that mature Leos already possess. While it will always be important to Leos that others admire them, a sign of Leo’s growing maturity is that they can recognize their own sunshine regardless of whether there’s a moon (i.e. you) around to provide a reflection.
When you’re feeling the urge to shower your immature Leo with more love, just remember that cats always land on their feet. And if they don’t, they have 8 more lifetimes to learn how…
What kind of Leo are you? How have you dealt with an immature Leo? Have you seen an immature Leo become mature?

Hi Domici
Is this your Mother or Grandmother because the age difference is staggering
and it doesn’t make sense if she was your birth Mother.???
Very puzzled Taurus.
Leos are ruled by the sun
They think the world revolves around them
They talk too much listen too little
Are very bossy, like to control every situation,
Way too much pride…
Plays the victim feeling sorry for himself as if they are the only ones that feel pain in the world.. Makes bad decisions than blames it on bad luck
Lost in his own ego and mind!
Well where do I begin? They entice you leer you in and then go from hot to cold.. Their problems are bigger than yours.. So they think .. They will adore you with loving words act kind but expect more of it from you and always feeding their ego.. Exhausting I’m telling you .. Leo men different from Leo women .. Hands down .. Big babies the men doesn’t matter how successful they are… Good side to them is aware of your emotions ~ kind words~ some gifts and letters of love .. Downside … Give me more attitude … I’m king … What I say is right.. Pompous … Lol.. Depends on if you can handle constant admiration of them.. Oh too much work lol =^\^=
Astro chick is right!
Btw I’m a Libra… Around 3 Leos frequently .. Sister is different .. The other two lions … Oh pow!!! Lots of drama ????????????????????
I’m Aquarius, the man I loved was Leo. He was great fun, gregarious, generous, smart….but he was very distant. It was like are roles were reversed. I’m trying to give love and affection, and he was pushing me away. He could also be very insensitive to my feelings, and cruel. I finally walked away, even though it broke my heart. I never heard from him again…that stubborn Leo pride, coming into play. He doesn’t realize he’s dealing with an Aquarian who is as stubborn as he is. I’m not taking any more crap. Grow up!
This post helped me so much!!!! How I trying to hand my immature leo boy is break free been trying for months but have reached my final straw now he has a gay “homie ” girl her pictures flooded through his phone she has the password to his phone and I’m the so called girlfriend that has nothing and I have none of that no pictures of me in his phone I don’t have the password to the phone. the whole relationship was a piece of crap. I just been getting used for my money and my time wasted and I’m done I’m through closing doors trying to change my number today and just no contact whatsoever I’m tired of being hurt. Then Leo’s tend to always make it seem like they’re the victim ihe didn’t do anything wrong sorry to say but they are worst sign I’ve ever encountered. He just messed up big time and no turning back by the way I’m a Capricorn! With a Leo daughter hopefully I can break her out of their characteristics
I’m a Leo woman and I’m engaged to a Leo man . The way I broke him of cheating is being he’s perfect woman and held out on sex. That drives them crazy, they love the challenge. Then every other woman becomes suddenly uninteresting and boring and typical .. And you shine and all they want and think about . I love him to pieces , their a lot of fun if you can get thru the immature stage and break him .
This article was so informative but not that helpful. My girlfriend is an unrepentant spoiled brat and my son is a progressed Leo with the same attitude and youre right there’s no remedy for, if webreak up she’ll just find someone else to use control and lie to. Shes a fixed sign but worse than that her moon and mars are mutable which gives her the slick capability to be manipulative. Idealistic Mooon is Sag and her impulsive Mars in Gemini drives me nuts with dishonesty. I will befair and say i have the same signs in different places. Sag sun, Leo Moon, Gemini rising.
We may have a kid on the way, how do i fix this?
I have an Leo man immature I might add and he had been talking to someone for six months when I found out and he quickly pushed me to the curve after seven years he’s mean cruel self center and unappreciative nothing never good enough but he tell me that’s its hard to let me go I’m a virgo and that he love me unconditionally When I found the text that’s when he kick me to the curve because he couldn’t handle beening caught that’s pitty to broke off seven years for phone conversation for six months never seen the girl I’m hurt but I still love him can it work
Leos need their a$$ kick for treating ppl the way they do my leo man stab me and now he act like he the victim like I owe him something not only thing I owe him is my foot in his a$$?????
My leo immature man came back and said that we going to take one day at a time right now we are friends with benefits what do I do accept it
I’m a Pisces dating a Leo he has hurt me so bad but reading this he considers his self the victim but he cheated on me now he’s a shame to call he’ he’s very embarrassed that he was caught he won’t call nor he won’t text he just left do they ever return after breaking your heart
How on earth do you know this about immature leos?
Ive never read something about “myself” that has ever made so much sense and even made me cry a little lol i feel lik i dont know myself at all now even though eevvryhing makes sense.. argh!!!
😀 help
i now c y?
My Leo is stubborn you have to stand up to them and show no weakness..they always come back and if they get embarassed they gonna act a fool just ignore them or leave. You have to kill them with kindness.
In Response to Klarisa15, i was born when my mom was 46, there was 22 years age difference in me and my brother! She is my real mim & im still taking care of her, however when she dies she gets ni funeral from me, I JUST WANT OUT & AWAY FROM HER!!! SHE CALLED NNE FAGGOTS, TILD ME I DESERVED TO BE BULLIED IN SCHOOL, its too late i hate her and im to old now to even want her love!! It is what it is!!
I just don’t get it. My Leo friend (woman) did everything to turn me on (I’m a woman). I never got involved with a woman before. After she lured me into being attracted to her like hell, all of a sudden she turned cold towards me. I don’t understand? Please comment. If there are any Leo women out there attracted to another woman, can you please try to explain what happened to us. She did everything to make me love her.
I’m so hurt and feeling stupid for letting myself fall for this woman. Honestly, it was not my idea in the first place. She told me she loved me and touched me suggestively and really turned me on and then poof all of a sudden acted cold towards me like nothing ever happened. I need help, I’m unbelievably upset about this and don’t quite understand at all. I swore before I met her that I’d never open my heart to anyone again and now my heart is broken.
Ohh. So true. Iam involved with a leo and hes fantastic when things happen to his liking. Oh jeeez if things. Go little offplan hes the moodiest angriest. Hea knows that and often apologises for it. The sex and communucation between aries and leo man is fantastic. Its like u understand them so well. Give them their space when they r angry. Leos r spendthrifts and always in financial problems. But its a match atleast to try once in ur life even rhough they r arrogant with too much attitude
Thanks Ariesgurl….yes my Leo is mad at me, because I got a little attention, even though I usually allow them to get all the attention. They can be so spoiled and immature. If my leo friend stays mad, so be it.
I will not cater to silly behavior. I’m a Gemini with Leo Rising and Libra moon. Yup, gonna give my leo
friend space and if they come back…great…if they don’t…gonna keep going. Leo’s are great, but if you
constantly find yourself giving too much of yourself up for them, guess it’s time to move on. Glad you and your Leo man are doing well.
My bff of 7 years has cut all contact no argument nothing for 3 months we were like sisters she never was protective and vice versa use to call me for hours make me laugh always cheer me up when I was very I’ll she took care of me I miss her very much my life is empty I’ve tried lots of contact and got nothing back a few weeks ago she contact me to say she loved me very much but no contact over Xmas or new year I reason she needs her space but cannot believe she has done this a very sad and upset Virgo.
This is so accurate it’s crazy. I was in a sort of friends with benefits thing with an immature Leo and even for a fwb fling, he was incredibly inconsiderate, self-centered and could be downright rude if he didn’t get what he wanted when he wanted it. I stopped talking to him without any explanation because I figured his actions would be obvious enough for him to realize that he was in the wrong. At first, he was pretty pissed off and sat on his high horse. However, now, months later, I’m getting a respectful but silent attitude from him. It’s almost as if he’s ashamed to talk to me. I’m glad to say that I think that immature Leos can learn.
Oh btw I’m a Pisces ^^ and I know he’s not just ignoring me because he acts politely towards me. In any case, that’s a sign of maturity.
BTW my bf is a Leo and considering Leo and Virgo are not a good match well we were a terrific duo
And very tuned in as for Pisces they can b cool and indifferent cos I dated one for 4 year
I was with my Leo for 8 years, almost 3 months ago he started acting distant and I tried to hang in there until it passed but it was to painful so after about 3 weeks of being treated differently by him, I left. We haven’t had any contact since, and I miss him. Years ago something similar happened I broke up with him due to his behavior towards me but he came back and we were great until this last situation. I want us to get back together because overall we are so good together. I will not go back to him because I think that’ll tell him that I’m ok with not being treated right. I’m hoping he’ll respect the fact that I refuse to accept his nonsense and come back to me so we can work everything out. What’s the chances of that happening?
Hi.
In your comment you said you have a Leo boyfriend and when you had some issue. You left him for a while and he came back. Recently, my Leo boyfriend broke up with me for a very silly reason. He is very egoistic and short tempered. He gets pissed off for small things and is never ready to sit and solve things. But I insist on talking things out and solving them. I’m a Pisces. Now he blocked me from everywhere. It’s not that he doesn’t love me. He does love me. But is egoistic to accept it. He’s not replying to my calls or texts. Is leaving him for a while a good idea? And then contact him. Or should I just leave and wait until he does. I really love him and can’t afford to miss him at any cost. 🙁 what do I do to get him back ?
Leos are unlucky in Love…and they’re very much responsible for that. If you can find one
that has grown up and has maturity then they’re the greatest. I personally am tired of
my relationship with a Leo. It’s like having a little kid.
I was in a friends with benefits arrangement with my immature Leo.
Whenever I was with him he would be caring, considerate, he’d make me meals, have the house looking lovely, record movies for me, etc.. But once he got high, he’d become unreasonably demanding, he’d yell, criticise, be cruel.
Obviously, I liked the caring side of him more.. He was funny, warm and sparks flew in the bedroom.
But over time, things became more about him and his needs, without a care for mine..
I left him and said, no more, enoughs enough! He still today texts me wanting to hook up, but I politely decline. I would have him back in a heart beat if he grew up or showed he’d grown up..
I know he has other women at his disposal, but I also know he respected my decision to leave. They don’t care too much for weak women and Aquarian girls are certainly not that!
I just ended a fwb relationship with a Leo. Im a pisces woman so we are very incompatible. He is very selfish and self centered. He can be so hurtful. When we first met, we had SOOOOOOOOOO much fun and the sex OMGOSH! All of a sudden he stop calling and texting for a few days. I feel like he loves to be surrounded by a lot of women. When I ask him hed lie about it. I caught him being active on a dating site. What I will say is when I started to ignore him. Hed always text or call. Once he broke it off with me and I did not contact him. He came right back. I broke it off with him about a week ago and he contacted me yesterday. I no longer cater to his needs and I wont. He is immature, conceded and manipulative.One thing I will say is when he misses me he dies try to reach out but IM FINISHED!!
The reason Leos are unlucky in love is because they never appreciate what they have,
always looking for a new challenge. And they say Gemini’s are fickle???? I’m a Gemini
in love with a Leo and I can tell you THEY are the fickle ones. Well, know what? My Leo
just lost me…and my leo will miss the hell outa me, but until Leo’s learn to keep the
romance going with the one they love instead of always needing to be stroked by
others, they will never succeed in a relationship and always wind up unhappy.
I am 40 and my EX leo is 50. He suggested that we transfer to another state. So my transfer fot approved before his and i accepted the job and moved. Every since i moved he has been acting an ass. He came to visit and was just mean and snippy so i left him at the hotel and havent actually spoken with him for a month. He has my car at his house and he told me to get it. So i called and texted to set up a time to have it towed. He ignored my texts and phone calls. Then after s month he replies to s text saying my car wad towed. And that that was the 1st text that he recieved from me in weeks. Then he texted and said your car is still here. Im not like that. So i called yesterday and left a message so he couldnt say that he didnt get the info about the tow truck. Hd sent me straight to voice and didnt say yay or nay if he would be home to let the guy in the yard. Games and drama all the time with leo men. My friend told me this is his way of making me have to keep calling him. Silly and petty. Im an aquarius. And all the silliness is not worth it. Someone tell me why all the games. He messed up. You will not talk to me any type of way and act like i sm supposed to keep accepting it. You told me get my belongings now it’s a cat and mouse game. Im too old for silly mind games. Smh
LEO’S are never satisfied and don’t realize how they damage their relationships
by flirting with everyone in site, even the same sex, just to be complimented and
noticed. My Leo just ruined our relationship, by using me to make someone else
feel special. That someone else didn’t see my Leo for a week, but neither did I,
and she kept telling that other person how much she missed them and how glad
she was to see them, but didn’t say it to me. I’m not stupid…by saying it to them
and not me, she was trying to make that other person feel special. Well, guess
what??????she just lost me forever. She hurt me and didn’t care and now I DON’T
CARE. She’s the one who lost.
Hi SASHA….Sounds like the typical Leo silliness, playing games that don’t even make sense,
except to them. It’s so tiring, isn’t it.? Leo’s have a great personality and they’re very sexy, but
ya know what??? in the long run, after they’re finished tampering with the relationship, instead
of being mature and communicating, the relationship is ruined and no great personality or
sexiness can put the pieces back together again.
From now on I will steer clear of Leo’s no matter how great a personality they have and no matter how sexy they are. How about you? Hey Sasha, why not reply to my email here???? Did you learn your lesson like I did? Janet
You are so right. He was too much to handle after 6 long years of unnecessary drama. Im done. Ive learned. I was sad for a bit but i m getting better.
HI SASHA: I’m sorry you had to go thru that for 6 long years. That really hurts, but
if I remember you said you’re an Aquarius. You’re strong and will make it through.
I’m hurting too, but I will make it through also. By the way I’m a Gemini.
No matter what, love that ends is always painful and I hope you get better and
better and heal. From reading everyone’s comments, those Leos are something
else, but I bet if this blog were about our signs, there would be lots of complaints
too. Bottom line…..relationships are not easy…. period. Take care Sasha……….Janet
Thank you. Im sure there would be also. Lol. Take care. No more leos for me.
Exactly, no more Leos for me either. If you ever want to chat, reach me on this website.
It was nice hearing from you. Janet
I’m a Leo, and I’ve read most of the comments above. This is what I’d like to say…
The reason we demand so much love and attention is because we GIVE so much love and attention! Im not talking about “effort” here. We don’t care if you “match our effort” or not – we want the same effect! Yes it’s harder for you to make us feel loved up enough, because our expectation are higher than the standard – and that’s only because WE raise the bar when WE give you love and attention. Think about it.. It’s so easy for us to make you feel so good because naturally we have that vibe that’s so magnetically attractive. You, unfortunately don’t have that so you have to work harder to make us FEEL what we make YOU feel. Because for us, there’s no such thing as “inbetween” – it’s ALL OR NOTHING! The reason why we have so many girls on our list is because hardly anyone can give us the love we need… So we block it out, and enjoy a string of women instead. Even though this doesn’t come close to the feeling of real love.
And here’s another thing, “real love” to us is based on how you make us FEEL. NOT based on what you do. You can move the sun and earth and have no affect on our hearts. It’s not what you do, it’s how you make us feel. So understand this. The way to a Leos heart is to show him (or her) that you have their back! When all else is gone wrong, YOU have their back. Make us feel what we make you feel. Show us that this connection is soul deep. Do it because you want to. Not because you need to. There’s a difference. Speak softly and with respect.
I promise you. If you can do just that, you’ll have satisfied us and we will make sure our sole purpose in life is to show YOU how grateful we are. That’s it.
Hello,
I’m a female Leo and I can tell you easily this isn’t always true. I’m reading about Leo’s and shaking my head. Female Leo’s are an entirely different ball park than Leo males. Leo’s tend to be immature when we are not respected.
I don’t look for multi lovers. I only have one when I do. I’m loyal and fair as long as it is given to me. As long as I am not mistreated or talked down to I can easily listen to you and talk our issues out. I’ve had plenty of relationships where I never once got into throw down arguements. If you cheat on us though and we give you another chance BEWARE:: hell has no fury like a leo scorn. If you can survive and by some slim chance you gain our trust back never break it again with loyally. Don’t lie to us, because once it’s about something big we may never trust your word again. Honesty and loyalty are huge for us.
We don’t need gifts of luxury and money to be happy, we can provide that for ourselves. The type of gifts we want are attention and love and not all the time. We will bend over backwards for family, friends and loved ones. You don’t have to match what we do at all. We just want to hear from you once in a while.
Yes, we are charming, we have big egos and think the world of who we love but also with big egos come even bigger insecurities. If you can ensure to tell us you love us and we are just being over the top we can respect that and it keeps us in check. Most Leo’s don’t want to be the center of attention with strangers but we want to be the ones who matters center of attention. We want to feel special once in a while. And if you matter you WILL know it! We don’t lack with showing it or telling you. Things are never boring with us!
Believe it or not, we prefer no drama! Don’t challenge us though! The harder you come at us the worse we can get due to our pride.
Worst sign I’ve met as of yet… Scorpio.. They can love and be the center of a Leo’s world so easily but they’re liars and cheaters..psychopaths! Manipulation! Leo’s will roll over and play dead and take beatings until we realize you aren’t innocent and you are messing with our feelings. Scorpios like to beat like no other.
Well, it was great hearing from you Leo’s!!! I am a Gemini with Libra Moon, and Leo Rising. I am in love with a Leo. Yes, they are great, affectionate, fun, sexy, etc. My experience has been that they’re crazy about me (super attracted), and they like my personality very much, but somehow they’re always looking around and flirting with others. I sincerely love everything about them, except for that. I can’t help it but when that
happens, I get jealous, but try not to show it too much. Any advice Leo’s???????
Male Leo’s are tons different than females. Females tend to be more loyal when in a relationship. When I say I love someone and want that one person. It’s just them. I don’t need anyone else. And it takes me a long time to get over them. We need to feel like that gushy romantic unbelievibly real love. Poetry romantic stuff. We want to know we are the only and not faked
Hi Lioness, I read your comment. I get what you said about wanting gushy romantic love. I am just like that with my Leo and my Leo just loves it and just loves me, BUT….why do Leos look around with what looks like desire for other people if they’re sincerely in love with you?????
Im a virgo, married to a Leo…now separated less than a year after marriage. This man courted me, seduced, loved, and did everything incredible for me…went above and beyond. This lasted in our relationship, then soon after we got married things started changing. OF COURSE all the blame was put on me…and never did I ever hear a sorry for the torture and emotional abuse he put me through. From what I have learned…Leo’s really think they are the most important people ever! They are selfish (but will call you selfish), they deflect every negative comment about themselves and project it onto you. You will never win a battle, nor will you have the energy to do so up against a Leo male (not a compliment). They are so self-centered! I am caring and nurturing and try to boost his ego ALL the time, but he is petty…if I even say something the wrong way..or he takes it the wrong way…he will blow up on me. He is quick to argue and go into a bad mood. I am thoroughly exhausted from his emotional bullshit. They are very needy..if you have a full time job, go to school, or have kids–you should not be with a Leo male, bc his life will consume you! Your entire world will start to revolve around him…which is terrible for Virgos, because they love to be needed and want to help…but even this Virgo lost fuel. Im now separated from him…we havent had any contact in a few weeks, but he thinks im wrong. I apologized for some crap I didnt even do, just so he can get out of his lame mood…but it wasnt enough, he said we didnt belong to each other and should break up. AT first, I was devastated at having my marriage ruined over his immaturity, but soon as he left…I felt a ton of bricks lift off my shoulders…I now felt free again…I started getting my life back…I did things for ME again…and now I am questioning if I still love him or if this was a blessing in disguise to just walk away from this energy-consuming relationship. Virgo’s and Leo’s have the potential to be great partners…I’ve learned that when I am mad and want to express that, I just go the opposite way and say something nice …it suprises him..and then it calms me down a bit…for the Leo–he will never change…so you can either adapt yourself to them…and learn how to deal effectively with them…or just cut your losses.
Yo Lioness….look at my last blog to you….would you be so kind as to answer the
question I asked? I sincerely need your opinion. Thanks lots.
No one has answered my question yet!!!! I know my Leo loves me, I just know it. But…..why do leos
look around at other people so much if they love you????? Am I fooling myself about my Leo
loving me???? I don’t think so. I’m confused right now. Will someone (Leo) please answer this
question????? Thanks.
I’m a Leo myself, and I’m confirming that if he truely loves you – you will see how he cares ABOUT you. Let him roam around freely, let him explore. Don’t let him “have” to lie to you aboutbwhatbhe does. Be open and honest with him. But don’t contain him and don’t let him feel contained or domesticated. He will always love you – even if he wants to see other people. It’s in our nature to venture out and explore and to have fun. It’s in our nature to exercise aggression to spark conflict. And it’s also in our nature to be loyal to those whom we truely love.
It could be that he doesn’t yet realise that this love between you and himself is the real deal yet. And when he does, he’ll feel compelled to stay with you – it won’t even be a “choice” anymore – it’ll be natural.
But DO NOT try to contain or domesticate him (if that’s what you’re doing) this will ruin everything.
It sounds like you were in a relationship with a guy like myself lol.
I’m really sorry about your difficulties with him. Maybe you might be interested in read my perspective on the relationship.
I don’t know what exactly happened so I can’t comment on that, but what you stayed about his character is surprisingly accurate to mine.
I just want to tell you, that’s yes, we do take the smallest things and turn it into the biggest deal. Why? Because when we truely love someone, they become so close to our hearts. And the smallest of things can really affect us emotionally – but we don’t show our soft side – we show aggression and rage because that’s what we know.
Imagine you were in the wrong, and he blew up in rage. The first thing you could have done is to say “I’m sorry, you’re right – and I want to change this. I don’t want to wrong you in any way because I love you”
Saying something like that, whilst holding his hands – can easily bring a Leo down from his high chair. Showing a desperate attempt to fix things and express your love to him desperately will make him love you so much more.
But people find it hard to express themselves. That’s why they don’t get along with Leos.
You might find this funny – but I’m with a scorpio lol – the most secretive of all. And she tries so hard to adjust herself to me. And when she beaks down and starts to cry – my heart softens – and I devote all my energy to comfort her emotionally – I literally stall my whole life just to make her feel okay again. It’s a roller coaster ride – and we’re learning a out each other everyday.
I am sort of dating one. Well, he’s half mature and half not. I have never been with a Leo before. I’m not sure but I think not only is he Leo Sun, but he might be Leo rising as well. I’m noticing the response to/craving for attention and stimulation, definitely.
When together we get on swimmingly. But we worked out early on that we do have core worldview issues to work through. Two years ago me would not have been in a good place for this. Maybe 1 year ago me wouldn’t cut it either. On the other hand, knowing we have at least one hard stop before the relationship could progress, does help me to work out how love him to the extent that I can do so freely, without particularly needing anything back, but without expecting me or him to love more than that.
Today me knows to love me as much as Leo loves themselves, so I do try to walk away (just a little bit) and then stay put, if I’m particularly feeling Leo is inattentive or irresponsible. I try not to belabor why because he knows the things I dislike, and why I dislike them for him. It does not need to be on repeat. I figure if I treat him as immature by doing that, then I’m just helping to keep him that way. And to be fair he is more mature now than he was not long ago so I guess the trajectory is at least the right way around (ha! how Saturn in Virgo I’m sounding).
Ultimately I cannot choose maturity for him before he does. So far apparently I’m still his favourite ‘moon’, it doesn’t take long for him to leave the distraction and come to where I’m standing. If he doesn’t come back one day, then I guess I walk somewhere else by myself. If I think I should like to see if I could try something with someone who could be more ready for me before he is, or go it alone, I’ll think of it then.
But the time I do agree to share with him now, should be only good because I’ll not get it back. Which means I must know where the boundaries are within which I can love without regret, and just play in that space. It’s hard enough that it should be plenty to occupy me to master that. But at least I know I’ll get to keep that mastery once I have it, even if I don’t get to keep him in the end. And that’s how I’m planning to love a half-mature Leo.
