Why a Libra Man Suddenly Becomes Distant?

Updated August 18, 2024

Is a distant Libra man cause for concern? To answer this, you have to consider the reasons he has become distant.

Sometimes it’s normal and part of his larger pattern in relationships. Sometimes, it means he’s lost interest.

For a Libra man, emotional distance isn’t necessarily a bad sign. He loves to be in love but isn’t always ready for the emotional responsibility of a relationship.

When a relationship gets too serious or emotionally involved, a Libra man will usually step back to gain perspective. He may just need a few days to get his bearings before opening up emotionally again.

If you don’t know why he’s pulled away, panicking and confronting him will only make it worse. It’s better to try to understand why he’s suddenly emotionally distant.

He Misses Other Friends

You need to know what to do when a Libra man ignores you. First, don’t assume he’s actually ignoring you. For a Libra man to not text back or to take a few days to himself is normal. To him, it’s about self-care and not trying to ignore you.

Yet often women take this behavior personally. You may assume he has the intention of ignoring you on purpose. The reality may be as simple as your Libra man is catching up with friends. Ideally, he would still keep in touch with you.

Yet Libra men have a personality quirk that makes this difficult. They prefer to socialize with one person at a time. When doing so, they give that individual their full attention. They are used to operating as part of a pair.

This doesn’t mean they view the “pair” as romantic. But Libra men do prefer to pair up when they socialize. Taking time away from you may mean he’s getting to reconnect with friends. This is important to a Libra man.

This one weird trick is the only way to attract a Libra man.

He Needs Space

If you want to know how to make a Libra man obsessed with you, you have to know what to do when a Libra man goes quiet. It’s inevitable. At some point, he’ll start to detach even for a brief time.

The best thing to do is ignore him. Don’t confront him or bring drama into the situation. Just let him be. At the same time, fill your schedule with dates to catch up with friends or do things you enjoy.

Don’t sit around waiting for a Libra man. Show him that you have a life and are popular. Let him see that your time is valuable and you, too, are going to make the most of your free time. This takes the pressure off him.

It will reassure a Libra man to know that he can step away for some down time in the relationship and you won’t panic or chase him. Ironically, it’s the best way to get him to chase you instead.

He’s Feeling Too Emotional

When a Libra man stops talking to you it could be one of the signs a Libra man is trying to hide his feelings. This is common as Libras are romantic but fear vulnerability. They will hide their deeper emotions.

When things start to get serious in a relationship, it’s common for Libra guys to panic and step back. They may overthink things and try to talk themselves out of the relationship. A Libra man may also be confused about what he wants.

When he goes quiet, he’s giving himself time to try to analyze his feelings and decide whether he wants to move forward or not. If you’re wondering what to do when a Libra man pulls away, one of the best things to do is to stay neutral.

The biggest mistake you can make when a Libra man goes quiet is to pour your heart out to him. Showing him how much he means to you won’t make him want to be close to you.

Instead it will feel like pressure. He will retreat even more. Doing this makes a Libra man feel the weight of your expectations in the relationship. Your intentions may be good, but he will interpret this as neediness and will be turned off.

This magic will make your Libra man want a relationship with you.

He’s Angry

If you’re wondering how to know when a Libra man is done with you, pay attention to his anger signals. Usually, when a Libra man is angry, he’ll go quiet at first.

He does this to avoid any kind of conflict. He would prefer keeping the peace to bringing drama into the relationship. Yet when he’s consistently unhappy, he’ll start to show it. He’ll begin acting passive-aggressive.

When he’s ready to give up on a relationship, he won’t bother to try so hard to keep the peace. He won’t try to appease you or find compromises. Instead he will say what’s really on his mind.

This may come as a shock if you thought everything was great. He may have been storing up anger and resentments for a while. He may also go quiet because it is too much energy to even express his anger.

This is a sign he’s losing interest in the relationship. It means he no longer cares enough to tiptoe around your feelings or to suppress his. When this happens he may be waiting for a catalyst to leave altogether.

He’s Analyzing His Feelings

If you’re wondering how to make a Libra man feel guilty, it’s best not to try. Putting a Libra man on a guilt trip because he’s been quiet will only feed into his idea that you’re too high maintenance.

He will back away even further. Instead, try to understand that often when he’s distant, he’s simply analyzing his own feelings. This is uncomfortable for him and he treats it like a chore that needs to be done.

When he goes into this mode, he will want time to himself so he is not being swayed by your feelings or personality. When you understand how to handle a Libra man, you’ll know not to take this personally.

This is the #1 mistake women make with a Libra man...

He’s Second Guessing Himself

A very common process Libra men go through involves constantly questioning, second guessing and doubting themselves. He may constantly question if what he’s feeling is real. He may overthink a comment you made and search for deeper meaning.

All of this takes time and energy. Libra men could save themselves a lot of trouble by being more assertive. But they’re afraid to rock the boat. So instead they overanalyze every conversation and feeling.

They try to get to the bottom of things that are really quite simple. Rather than trying to work out their misunderstanding with you, they will retreat to analyze what they think is behind your statement.

The same is true of their own feelings. They constantly wonder if it is love, lust, excitement or infatuation that is guiding their decisions. Because they don’t fully trust themselves, Libra men never feel they have a satisfactory answer to this question.

He’s Completing an Art Project

One of the more benign reasons a Libra man may be distant has to do with his fascination with art and music. If he doesn’t text for hours or doesn’t reply to your text, he may be in the studio painting.

When he’s completing a project, a Libra man gets lost in the process. Hours may pass. He may forget all about hunger or even forget he made plans with you.

It seems flighty and irresponsible of him, but he truly does get that caught up in his creative process. A more conscientious Libra man may set timers to periodically pull him out of his inner world and remind him of tasks he needs to complete.

But usually he’ll just end up turning the timers off and returning to the project he was working on. He doesn’t like to be disturbed when he’s struck by inspiration. He has a powerful connection to his muse.

The simple secrets you can use to seduce and keep your Libra man (they work like magic)

He’s Offended

Libra men are sensitive to fairness and equality. If you do something that offends him, before he confronts you about it he may become distant.

This could range from telling a joke that is offensive to him or offends him on behalf of others. It could be a comment you made that offends his idealism.

You may be completely unaware that you’ve offended a Libra man. Eventually, he’ll speak up about what’s on his mind. He doesn’t like to do this, but he will feel it is his obligation to restore justice.

If you’ve offended a Libra man, the best thing to do is listen to why he is upset, apologize, show him you understand his point of view and then move on. He will let it go as soon as he sees you’ve taken his views seriously.

He’s Bored

No amount of love will keep the attention of a Libra man who has become bored in a relationship. This is important to keep in mind. Feelings alone aren’t enough.

In addition to nurturing the connection with a Libra man, you’ve also got to keep things interesting and exciting. If you feel the relationship is becoming routine and predictable, he will likely already be getting bored.

Suggest different places for dates. Change your routines or appearance. Do something exciting and new together. Don’t settle into routines with a Libra man. If he’s bored, he will become distant as he searches for excitement elsewhere.
