He was a Gemini with a Leo rising and an Aries Moon. We were another match made in hell, but he had Mars in Leo conjunct my Venus - which makes for a sexual phenomena. So we both hung in longer than we would have otherwise. Someone told me a long time ago to “get it while you can”, and I took them very seriously.
One of the things about dating a Gemini is they look around a lot on a date. This is while you’re talking, I mean. Don’t be confused: they’re looking for someone more interesting than you. And you shouldn’t take it personally, because it has nothing to do with you. Even if you are the most interesting person on the planet, they’ll still need to check every minute to make sure. It’s your job not to smack them or get emotional about this, sheesh.
That’s not what did us in though. It was superficiality vs depth.
Gemini lives on the surface, very much like a butterfly flitting, and this is how it should be. Should a butterfly only flap their wings half as often? Of course not.
We were sitting in a bar talking to three people sitting next to us. Chit chit chat. If you date a Gemini, get used to this. They’ll strike up conversations with everyone, because very frankly their attention is split and it’s hard for them to focus on just YOU. In fact, it’s impossible.
Anyway, he was in the middle between me this trio, who I was waaay more interesting than. On the other side of me, there were three or four rugby players who were clearly not from the neighborhood. They were speaking a language I didn’t recognize and one of the people we were talking to asked, "I wonder where they are from."
