Any Gemini’s around?

If so… tell me what you’re like in a relationship. I’m finding myself to be overly independent, not very affectionate, well guarded, don’t show my feelings, just a right old tough nut but who really wants to be loved.

I doubt that’s anything to do with your star sign?

That’s what I’m trying to gauge, interested in other Gemini’s

I'm a Gemini. It doesn't take a fellow Gemini though to confirm that who you are and how you behave in a relationship has fuck all to do with your DoB.

Lockheart · 10/12/2021 23:19

Everyone is different, your star sign doesn't matter.

Hen2018 · 10/12/2021 23:22

Please stop putting an apostrophe in Geminis.

Star signs are bollocks. 1/12 of the population of earth (roughy 583 million people) aren't the same or share similar traits.

I’m a Gemini. I like lasagne on a Tuesday and sometimes I chew my boots. My boyfriends describe me as a feisty lover with a raspy tongue and hair in various places. In a relationship I tend to bark like a dog and am drawn to things that smell like meat. It is relentless.

PissedOffNeighbour22 · 10/12/2021 23:41

I'm a Gemini. I'm the same as you've described. Doubt it's anything to do with my star sign though, I'm just a grumpy cow who doesn't like people.
My ex husband was a Gemini too and he was the exact opposite of me.

Saysama · 10/12/2021 23:41

You’re an adult. Surely you can’t genuinely believe that the reason you’re ‘a right old tough nut who really wants to be loved’ is because of the month in which you were born? And that 1/12 of the planet’s population shares these traits for the same reason? You must see that’s rather silly.

Is everything else okay, OP? You having a bit of a rough time?

Typical Gemini

Can you guess what I am?
I drive erratically, but have excellent clutch control. In a relationship I'm incredibly clingy and can only sleep lying directly on top of my partner. I'm known as an unenthusiastic lover except for in one position that only Aries are good at. The colour beige makes me incredibly horny, I can't eat porridge as a result.

I’m a Gemini, my grammar is appalling too

frozendaisy · 11/12/2021 08:38

If you want to go down the true astrology naval gazing it's your moon sign that gives your emotional characteristics, sun signs are personality.

Me and the Mr have one of the most incompatible pairings with sun signs and yet here we are. Perhaps our moon ones line up?

frozendaisy · 11/12/2021 08:40

As long as you aren't a Scorpio you should be fine! Xmas Grin

CouldThisReallyBe · 11/12/2021 08:46

I'm a gemini and I'm almost the opposite to what you describe.

Turniptracker · 11/12/2021 08:47

To answer your original question, I'm Gemini and I am the exact same as you describe to the point I annoy myself and wish I could be more loving

Dery · 11/12/2021 08:51

I’m Gemini but your description doesn’t particularly match me.

cloudtree · 11/12/2021 08:53

Geminis are supposed to be intelligent and therefore shouldn’t believe in Geminis being intelligent (or anything else for that matter)

Marineboy67 · 11/12/2021 08:53

My ex wife was a Gemini, cold yet possessive and jealous. I've met other people who are Geminis and they'll be nothing like that. Confirms its all a bit bollocks really.

CaMePlaitPas · 11/12/2021 09:02

I'm a Gemini, I'm a nightmare but I think that might be my personality and nothing to do with my star sign.

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 11/12/2021 09:26

Well I’m a Gemini and I sound like you OP. I think that’s a coincidence though.

layladomino · 11/12/2021 09:37

@jetadore def not Sagittarius as I LOVE porridge

I'm a Gemini and this is me. How strange! My DH of 11 years is the much more outspoken one with his feelings and always complains I don't show much affection 😄
pinkgin85 · 11/12/2021 09:50

An old boyfriend once broke up with me because "I wasn't opening up to him emotionally and physically" - but I think that's just how I am, my dad is the same and he's a Taurus

RedLipClass · 11/12/2021 09:54

My boyfriend is a Gemini and he is very independent but is also very loving and affectionate and is able to discuss his feelings easily with me.

I think the way we behave in relationships will have a lot more to do with our attachment style and general personality.
