so just checking out the zodiac signs today. im one sign and this girl is another. and together every website says that we are not meant to be. how much of this **** do you belive? what happened to opposites attracting? does this have any truth to it?
“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
Do you belive this kinda stuff?

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

At first it might not mean anything but I think in the long run it will pan out. So for example if you are a leo and you are a taurus you can still fall in love, get married but things will end up bad at the end (example my parents who are leo and taurus and they fought every week) and not surprisingly they are not compatible.
I'm superstitious and I believe the signs do have to do with people's behavior and how a leo or a taurus behave and their attributes for example, but I don't believe those generalized horoscopes which tell you what is going to happen in a month. If I ever were crazy enough to propose to a woman the thought of what sign she is would definitely make me think about it. Everyone has like 3 compatible signs. If she ended up being one of the signs that are not compatible with me I might have thoughts about it. But at the end love makes you forget everything and I would probably forget about all that.

I'd have to slightly disagree with Joe...
It only makes a difference if you believe it does.
That actually sounds a lot like how flirting works: you just have to know that you're good at it,relax, and hey presto, you're good at it.
Zodiac signs, along with most mysticism, homeopathic medicine, and psychic mind readers, work through the placebo effect. This is a mental effect where your beliefs cause your body (or your behavior) to change -- and it's a well-researched scientific phenomenon.
So, to sum up: if I were you, I wouldn't give it a second thought, because then you won't need to.
Some info, if you're interested:

An article about it in a scientific journal

listen its good to sell this astrology,palmistry,and relationship stuff but its just information that is neither true nor invalid.

no offense.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
I can't believe people believe this stuff... no offense. It is just FICTION made to SELL. You can choose to believe horoscopes if you want to, you can also choose to believe you have no control over your own life if you want to. Its your choice.
But seriously how can the month you are born have such a huge effect on your life? More than your DNA and the enviroment you were raised in AND common to everyone else who was born in that month?

do you also believe that witchcraft and black magic is fake? i'm superstitious and I tend to think that there is more to this world than meets the eye. We as humans don't fully understand everything in our universe just yet. Things in the relm of the spiritual have not yet been fully deciphered by science, not yet anyway. We shouldn't call things fake which we haven't yet written mathematical formulas for. The spiritual and physical are 2 very different things.SinJester said:But seriously how can the month you are born have such a huge effect on your life?

Yes I do believe witchcraft and black magic is fake. This doesn't not meant I discount the spritual, I simply have a different understand, expectation and belief of it compared to others. I haven't come to the conclusion that there is no soul, or no god, but I am still opened minded that there might not be either. Horoscopes really don't seem beliveable to me. Where do they learn how to desipher all these signs? To believe in them is to admit that some 'higher power' or 'the planets' control our lives. I simply do not buy into such nonsese.Joe The Homophobe said:do you also believe that witchcraft and black magic is fake? i'm superstitious and I tend to think that there is more to this world than meets the eye.

I have my opinions, and despite my tone I respect yours.

You guys can't be for real.
There is absolutely no empirical evidence for any of this nonsense.
As for astrology; It's based off the alignment of planets and stars. Please explain how that could in anyway effect my emotions and relationships.

planets alignign seal your destiny in eternity, for example Im a taurus and when I grow up I wanna be a bullfighter.
"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I have a simple question... how do you know that the starts, etc, seal your destiny? Other than some cooky webpage telling you so, or one single example?
There is no evidence that any of this stuff has a real effect. What does have an effect is the Placebo Effect. See my previous post here.
