“In each of the following experiences, man or woman is fully capable of giving and teaching others the first quality, but for the personality to learn the second quality is a struggle. When one’s understanding of this second quality equals that of the first, he or she has then achieved mastery of a particular Sun Sign. The soul must pass more than once through the First Six Initiations of Love as:
Aries
the infant “I am”
to teach that love is innocence
And learn that love is trust
Taurus
the baby “I have”
to teach that love is patience
And learn that love is forgiveness
Gemini
the child “I think”
to teach that love is awareness
And learn that love is feeling
Cancer
the adolescent “I feel”
to teach that love is ecstasy
And learn that love is humility
Virgo
the adult “I analyze”
to teach that love is pure and
Learn that love is fulfillment
After achieving emotional maturity in these first six stages of development, man and woman must then pass through love’s Final Six Initiations (more than once) to discover its deeper spiritual meaning in:
Libra
marriage “I balance”
to teach that love is beauty
And learn that love is harmony
Scorpio
sex “I desire”
to teach that love is passion
And learn that love is surrender
Sagittarius
knowledge “I see”
to teach that love is honesty
And learn that love is loyalty
Capricorn
experience “I use”
to teach that love is wisdom
And learn that love is unselfish
Aquarius
idealism “I know”
to teach that love is tolerance
And learn that love is Oneness
Pisces
submission “I believe”
to teach that love is compassion
And learn that love is ALL
And so to realize at last that
LOVE IS ETERNAL
Taken from Linda Goodman’s Love Signs “The Twelve Initiations of Love”

I am not sure which stage I am at. Either Aries stage because I don't trust people entirely, or maybe the Gemini stage with the thing about awareness. Of course I could just be stuck at the Scorpio stage (my own damnable Sun Sign no less).
I have been flirting with the idea of seducing a social butterfly. He is a Libra and is younger than me so it might not pan out as planned. I also may loose interest eventually. It's just that I've been spending most of my time at school with him, which goes along with having two classes together. My other friends, I barely get time to see. But I get along with my butterfly well because of his casual personality. His easy-going and comfortable behavior leaves me relaxed and well entertained in an otherwise rather boring day. With all the other assholes, dumbasses and whatever running around-boys way too young or too old, boys and their stupid trading cards, boys that are too short, boys that are too big and scary, boys that are not really boys, boys that deliver nothing but bullshit...I am not saying my butterfly better than the rest of them-just that he hasn't lost my interest like the rest of them. And I must say, when a man trys to play me for a fool, I loose interest, real quick. I've been called a shrew and I've been called a prude, I don't care. I'd rather be called that than be called 'easy'.
By the way The Wallflower in the title is me. I usually stay in one place and rarely move about to socialize. Let others do the talking I'll do the listening. However most of my friends are social butterflies. They've forced me to be less shy than I was in my earlier years and I respect that about them.
