THE PISCES GIRL

Getting a Pisces girl to open up to you can sometimes feel like trying to knock down a brick wall with your head. In general, she tends to enter relationships with extreme caution and is not so keen on letting her guard down until she feels completely safe with the other person.

For many admirers, one of the biggest challenges they face in the beginning is getting their Pisces crush to open up to them. Many have tried and failed, giving up frustrated before they ever win the prize. It’s just the way it goes. But for the rest, the rewards can be great.

Beneath that veil of a nonchalant demeanor lies the heart of a deeply sensitive spirit. When she falls in love, she falls hard. She IS the kind to wear her heart on her sleeve. A Pisces girl in love wants to give of herself completely: mind, body, and soul.

Without a doubt, this intense depth of feeling has brought her heartache in the past. Though love would have her believe otherwise, not everyone knows how to handle the fervor of her emotions. So she learns to take baby-steps and guard closely until she feels her crush can be fully trusted.

Before you storm off in a huff, here are some things you can do to inspire her to open up a little more:

One of the more popular curiosities of the Pisces girl is her sex appeal. She’s got it, and many out there would like to know why.

Simple answer is she was born with it. Even Pisces girls who aren’t conventionally pretty have got that certain something to make heads turn.

Growing up, I’ve always been on the fluffier side, bigger than all of my friends and horribly insecure about it. Yet, despite having a bad case of the chubs, I’ve never been without admirers. Sure, they weren’t always the ones I wanted, but I had them anyways.

The first time I can distinctly remember a boy really taking a liking to me was in the first grade. I’ll never forget it. He came straight up to me, grinning ear to ear, and told me “I like your big forehead.” Like that was supposed to be a compliment! After that, I thought he was a jerk.  But he would continue to hound me until the fourth grade, when he eventually changed schools.

He was only the first of many who would vie for my affections, but I was so insecure I couldn’t really appreciate any of the attention for what it was. Luckily, I can now, and how it makes me look back and smile.

I think many Pisces girls can relate to this feeling. This understanding that she attracts, but most times, she is just as in awe of it as the observer. So, what gives?

Here are 7 reasons why I think Pisces girls have got sex-appeal:

For those who are interested, Schwabs just so happens to be an Aries. The Ram.

Astrologically speaking, we are supposed to be one of most romantic couplings in the zodiac-a real prince meets princess story. Though, we also couldn’t be more opposite. We literally fall on opposite ends of the zodiac scale. He is the very first sign, and Pisces is the very last. I’ve read up a lot on our pairing and some say its a match made in heaven, while others say we are too different to last.

In the end, I say only WE decide how our love story goes.

I can vouch that being married to an Aries man is not always easy. But he could say the same goes for a Pisces girl. While I cannot deny that we are very different people, the payoff to being married to my Aries man far outweigh our differences. Everyday, he shows me the kind of love fairy tales are made of. He really is my prince charming.

So, here are just a few more reasons why I love my Aries Man.

1. He Has a Wicked Sense of Humor
It’s a little bit sarcastic mixed with quick wit and silliness. I can’t exactly explain it, but it puts me ease almost instantly.

2. He’s a Manly Man
He goes after what he wants with boldness, he’s chivalrous, he protects and provides, he takes out the trash, he watches football and drinks beer with his buddies…He’s a guy’s guy in every sense of the phrase and has no shame in it. It’s the perfect compliment to my girlie-ness. I wouldn’t want it any other way.

3. He Lets Me Be Me
It’s no secret that on any given day, I can be one of a million different things depending on my mood. No matter who I am, what my mood is, or what quirk I show him that day, he always accepts me for the chameleon that I am.

Anyone who has ever been through a break-up knows how tough they can be. Forming a bond with another person can be a very special experience and having to dissolve that bond after a break-up can be downright painful.

During a break-up, we all need a little reminder that’s okay to hurt. It’s okay to go through the whole range of emotions while you are separating yourself from your ex. However, when you start to the take that hurt to a whole other level of cuckoo, it no longer becomes okay.
