Why do so many people ask about your zodiac sign before really getting to know you?

[Anonymous]

Almost every woman I've dated asked about my zodiac sign before asking deeper questions about who I am.

Why do some people want to know your birth month, birth year, or zodiac sign before they even know your personality?

Do you genuinely believe astrology can tell you who someone is, or is it just for fun?

I think astrology is interesting as a cultural topic, but I also think it has its limits. Character, values, and actions reveal far more than a zodiac sign ever could. What's your opinion?

That is stupid and pointless. They are made up weekly in that papers here. I don't ask the birthday of anyone that I meet. That's just not right thinking.

So many?

It has never happened to me.

That's a deal breaker for me. I don't date believers.

Compatability before they accept your #boyjoy !!!

My aim on GAG is to help you decode relationship behavior and spot red flags before they bite you in the ass 😏

Astrology is the “romantic shortcut”. It feels like an emotional cheat sheet: instant vibe check, fake compatibility test, and a cute flirty topic. Some use it for fun, some hide behind it to avoid doing real emotional work.

You’re right: values, consistency, and actions > zodiac. A walking red flag is still a red flag, even if they’re a “compatible sign” 💋

Horoscopes aren't romantic, they're ridiculous.

Some people believe that astrology is real.

[msc545]

Because they believe it's real enough that it will help them to get to know you better

[jahaims]

Because they are stupid and believe in magic

They want to estimate your character.
