How to React to a Libra Man Silent Treatment

If you don’t know what to do when a Libra man pulls away, you could sabotage the relationship. Leaving a Libra man alone briefly may be best.

When a Libra man goes quiet, it doesn’t always mean he’s done with the relationship. Sometimes it’s not even about his feelings toward you.

Libra men can be social and outgoing, but they need balance. They periodically need space and downtime in order to feel recharged. Don’t jump to the conclusion that something is wrong.

Don’t Chase Him

When a Libra man ignores you, the answer is not to text or call him repeatedly. He didn’t forget about you. He likely didn’t suddenly lose interest in you. He knows how to get in touch with you.

Try to relax and keep yourself busy with other things. If a Libra man just needed some downtime and you react by chasing him or becoming angry or dramatic, he’ll be turned off. He may convince himself the relationship is too much trouble.

He may not be intentionally trying to test you. Yet if a Libra man sees you react by losing your own stability just because he has been quiet for a few days, he will rethink the relationship.

Your reaction will show him whether he can trust you to give him space. If you chase him or erupt in anger or emotions, he’ll be turned off. It’s best to leave him alone for a few days.

If it’s been a week or more, drop him a brief line to see how he’s doing. Don’t demand an explanation or pour your heart out. Keep it brief and friendly.

Talk To Your Mutual Friends

If you are wondering how to know if a Libra man is done with you, your best bet is to talk to mutual friends. Don’t come right out and ask them, it will make them feel awkward.

Instead, casually mention that it’s been a few days since you’ve heard from your Libra man. Or wait for them to bring him up. If he’s no longer into you, they will know.

Mutual friends can also easily convey a message to your Libra man and will be sure to tell him how great you are doing. This will get his attention and lead him back to you.

He can’t resist his curiosity and he’ll want to know first-hand what is new in your life. Whatever you do, don’t try to make him jealous. That will backfire.

Post Interesting Photos Online

There is no doubt about it, a Libra man’s emotional distance can complicate a relationship. When he needs space to himself, you don’t have to get his attention directly.

You can use social media or your blog or other online platforms to your advantage. Post interesting photos online. Go to unique, beautiful, exciting places and take selfies. Post these to get his attention.

You can also post hints about the fun things you are doing or old friends you are catching up with in your downtime. Of course, you’re not posting to him specifically. Yet in a subtle way, you’re leaving a trail for him to find.

When a Libra man is distant, he’ll still track what you’re doing online. Use this to your advantage. You can find covert ways to entice him to reach out to you.

Casually Show Up At His Favorite Places

If you are trying to decipher signs a Libra man has lost interest from signs a Libra man is trying to hide his feelings, notice how he reacts when you run into him. Randomly show up at one of his hang out spots.

If he seems shy but glad to see you, he’s just been holding out because he’s bashful. If he seems annoyed and suddenly finds a reason to leave, it’s best to give him some space.

Planning to run into him someplace and pretending it was an accident will only work once, maybe twice. If you do this too frequently, he will get annoyed. Use this as a way to kickstart a conversation with him.

If he shows no interest in interacting and outright avoids you, it’s best to give him some breathing room. He’s showing you he’s not ready for a relationship or just not interested.

Upgrade Your Wardrobe

Libra men are the artists of the zodiac. They appreciate a person’s beauty as well as their fashion sense. If you spruce up your wardrobe, you’re sure to get his attention.

A Libra man who has gone quiet may suddenly take interest when he sees that you have adopted a new style and are suddenly paying attention to your appearance in a new way. He’ll assume something positive is happening in your life.

He’ll want to reconnect with you to find out about the inspiration for this sudden makeover. Also, he’ll enjoy being around you because you’ve stimulated his love of art and beauty.

Learn a New Craft

On a similar note, because Libra men are naturally drawn to art and creativity, they are also drawn to artists and creative people. Whether you consider yourself an artist or not, get involved in a new craft.

From jewelry making to crocheting to painting or woodworking, when you start to post online about the classes you are taking, he’ll notice. He’ll want to be involved in your creative process.

Being around inspired, creative people is tempting to a Libra man. He’ll reconnect with you after he sees that you’ve taken an interest in some type of craft or creative skill.

Give Him Space To Chase You

Don’t forget, a Libra man can’t chase you if you are always the one initiating contact. One of the best things about getting the silent treatment from a Libra man is that it gives him space to miss you.

He will go from missing you to chasing you. You just have to give him time. When a Libra man has gone quiet for a while but still loves you, it is inevitable. He will start to think about you and miss conversation with you.

Whatever conflict or issue he may have had with you in the first place will disappear from his memory. He’ll kick himself for spending time away from you at all. He’ll wonder why he ever made a big deal out of nothing.

Then, he’ll take the risk and reach out to you. He may act like nothing ever happened. It’s crucial not to be confrontational with him. Be friendly and positive.

If he sees that you’re eager to talk and to see him again, he’ll start pursuing more contact. Don’t get too comfortable, though. Let him put effort into evening the scales.

You don’t have to make him regret going quiet, but you’ll want to make sure he works for your attention. This will encourage his romantic instincts.

Remind Him You Have Options

If a Libra man has gone quiet and is not re-engaging with you, you may be tempted to make him jealous. This can be tricky territory to get into. Reminding him you have options can entice a Libra man.

Libra men hate making choices or commitments. Usually, they will waver back and forth before coming to a decision. They will only make a firm decision when they can no longer bear the tension of being in limbo.

When it comes to relationships, if he thinks he has all the time in the world, he may take it. He isn’t doing this to lead you on. It’s just a Libra man’s way of dealing with his fear of missing out.

Yet if you show him in subtle ways that you aren’t going to wait forever, it can motivate him to step up to the plate. You’ve got to be careful how you do this.

Reactivating your dating profile can be a subtle way to give him the hint. Only do this if he’s been silent for a longer than usual period of time. Start flirting with other guys online.

Again, only do this if much time has gone by. Also, it helps to be subtle about your flirtation. If you’re too obvious, he’ll think you were unfaithful and feel justified in distancing himself.

Playing with his jealous instincts can backfire. Only use this tactic if you are running out of other options and he has still not made contact or responded to you.

Compliment His Artwork Online

After some time has gone by, you can try to drop positive hints online and see how he responds. If you react positively to photos of his drawings that he posts, it can be an icebreaker.

A brief and complimentary comment on his posts about where his band is playing or his art opening or a photo of one of his paintings can also be a great way to initiate conversation online.

If he still ignores you, don’t pursue him. If he responds minimally, still wait and give him more time. This is only intended to be a reminder that you are still receptive to communication after time has gone by.

Don’t Confront Him

Libra men go out of their way to avoid drama. If you’re serious about getting him back, the last thing you want to do is confront him. Even if his silent treatment seems unfair.

If you leave a confrontational voicemail or text or if you show up at his work to tell him off for avoiding you, he’ll only convince himself he was right. He’ll try to claim the relationship is too much drama.

Even when he reaches out to you again, avoid confronting him or demanding an explanation for his silence. Over time you can bring this up to work on healing the relationship. Not right away.
