Dear Wondering,

What do you mean another dead end? Your friendship with this man did not end up dead. He went in one direction for awhile, while you went in another. And this is very normal in long term friendships.

If you doubt that, just look at nature. Have you ever seen two streams running alongside each other in a straight line, forever and ever? True friendship is an organic thing. Two people cannot maintain the exact level of interaction and intimacy over the period of a week, never mind a year, or a decade.

So here’s what I think. I think you have a friend that is sometimes clueless. And I think you have lots of Pisces and lots of Virgo, so you’re going forgive him every time he asks you to! This will be in spite of your concern over investing in a relationship that may not be permanent. Know why?

Because it’s your nature. And you are perfectly fine, the way you are.

Good luck.
