Why I Love my Aries Man

I’ve been told on more than one occasion in my life, that I am handful. 
In my defense that is not actually true. I’m “two” handfuls..and probably a good portion of a forearm. It is what it is. Because I know exactly who I am and how I can overwhelm even the most sturdiest of personalities, I’m writing today to give Kudos to my Aries man and to let you guys know why I Love him so. 

He’s able to take a joke. Even at his own expense. 

No one has that I have come across has been able to fully understand my humor and to take a joke without being completely offended by what I am saying. Not thus far. In this case I would say that I have truly met my match. Not only can he take a joke, but somehow he manages to flip it back around on me and have me pretty much in tears and laughing at myself..and him in the end. He has an Awesome sense of humor! 

He understands my “Weirdness”
Now I don’t know if this is an act or a real thing, but my thoughts and behaviors can be well..pretty out there. From UFO’s to why pregnant women should be given more time off work and beyond, he rarely misses a step. I don’t know if this is a good thing, or we’re both nuts. In either case..it works. I’ve had to take way less Xanax since he came into my life. Thank you baby, because my next topic of discussion was going to be on how much Xanax is too much.

He gets it. 

He watches my favorite TV shows with me.

From the Big Bang Theory, to Scandal. He’s in it to win it. In return I have watched some things that I would have never considered before: Vampire movies, Deadpool, and I think we have a Netflix date to watch some more guys blowing up things and doing things I don’t quite understand, but fair is fair right? 

He’s worth it. 

He’s just an all around Awesome Guy. Far from perfect. He admits his mistakes when he makes them and makes genuine and noticeable efforts to correct them or at least understand what I am yelling about, or in most cases being silent about as I shut down more often than I yell. He just waits for me to snap out of it and we move on with our lives. He’s present. Attentive. Makes an Effort and he shows me every single day that he loves me in both big and small ways. To add icing to the cake he is freaking gorgeous to boot! 

Seriously..

What more can a girl ask for? 

Aries Man/Libra Woman How We Work..

Supposedly the Relationship between an Aries Man and Libra Woman is one that is filled with either one of two things:

                                                                 1. Passion and Excitement

                                                                       Or The Alternative..

                                                                       2. Crash and Burn

According to Astrology the Aries and Libra Couple are opposites on the Zodiac wheel which means that we will either enhance each other and fill in each others spaces, i.e. where one begins the other ends or we will get on each others nerves and wage war until something or someone…Explodes.

From research and personal experience I have found the above to be Accurate. 

In our case we have a little bit of both. Some days our Passion and Excitement level is crazy high. Other days..I suppose that its good that we both don’t have access to weapons of mass destruction as both of our tempers when ignited..are also very..very high.

Our Relationship is a special challenge that takes daily efforts to bring into and maintain harmony. The Aries side of my Love does cause him to constantly feel like he is the ruler of the kingdom (even if it’s not his)  and if left to his own devices will verbally mow down anything or anyone in his path and then turn around and wonder where everything went. Luckily in this case I’ve had my share of up’s and downs and understand his need to be right and don’t mind letting him be so..as long as he doesn’t try to steamroller over me in one of his daily and many attempts to prove to me and the world that he knows absolutely Everything. About..well..Everything.

A Libra woman is a paradox of sorts because we encompass many qualities. If you know any Libra ladies we are usually kind and very nice, almost to a fault. Unless..you try to Steamroller over us with your views and ideas. Diplomats we are. Doormats we are not. Although at first glance it may appear to be. It has been said that a Libra woman rules with an iron fist in a velvet glove. Dealing with the Aries man this seems to be about the only thing that will work because the Aries Man personality is Extremely dominant. Extremely.

This Matchup is not for the faint of heart by any means. However when brought into Harmony with mutual respect, understanding and a willingness to listen. I find that we do indeed, Balance each other out.

The key is listening. Not listening to figure out when the other person has stopped talking and waiting for your turn to interject, but actually “listening” to hear what the other person has to say to make sure that you understand “what” it is that they are trying to get across to you..and then responding.

This is something that we work on and have improved upon daily because as you can imagine when you have two strong personalities that both have the idea in their head that they’re right? Honey..the Fireworks are sure to come. We’ve argued about everything from the appropriate pronunciations of words to how to “correctly” build the fence for the backyard keeping in mind that neither one of us are either teachers or contractors.

At the end of the day, the most important thing that we have learned through this relationship is that the need to be “right” kind of negates the whole process. No one is always going to be right. At the same token..no one is always going to be wrong either.

The conclusion that we’ve come to is this: Would we rather be right or wrong about some mundane subject that doesn’t matter and be right, but apart? Or would we rather find the Happy Medium together…and just build the damn fence so we can roast Marshmallows in the back yard without having to look over and see the neighbors peeking in at us. Now “that” is the real issue.

What the hell are they all over in our yard for anyway??

The absolute Best part of the Aries Man/Libra Woman Relationship is that before anything, we’re friends. We have a damn good time together. Laugh like lunatics and generally have the same outlook on life. It is said that in life the best partner in crime to have..is an Aries. I have also found this to be true. My guy will participate with me in the craziest of the crazy ideas..and vice versa. Somehow with the two of us together..that shit just..works!

Remember these two?
