If you’re wondering whether a Sagittarius can forgive, the straight up answer is yes. What you need to determine is the level of forgiveness the Sag is willing to give you. The question now becomes, there are levels of forgiveness? To which I answer, yes. The mighty archer is known to be very nonchalant and happy go lucky that most people thing they would just let things slide, whatever that is. But everyone has a boiling point.

I ran across a forum thread where this is a teenage girl’s dilemma. She tried to play games with a Sag guy she’s crushing on and although most people would find it off, the guy just laughed and said he found it funny and even cute. Her scheme worked because she got his attention and they even became friends. The second time she did this she turned the notch up that our Sag subject actually found it offensive but said “it’s ok, it’s done, let’s just forget about it” and they remained friends. The girl then, tried a prank again a third time, thinking it was okay but this time turned it up and tried to involve Sag guy’s new gf. He then got mad and started calling her out on her prank and asked her to leave him alone then eventually stopped talking to her or responding to her apologies.

There’s no real need to look at the situation to understand where things went wrong. The girl already established a connection the first time she tried this approach so there was no need to do it a second time but let’s humor her. Yes, Sagittarius is known to love puzzles so a brain boggling prank (or mind games, if you must) might be very appealing to him. The second time the girl tried a prank on him is where the “letting things slide” trait of the Sag comes in. He did get offended but there was no harm done so he just shrugged it off. The third time, though, was obviously a whole different level because one, it includes someone aside from himself and two, the prank could be something that could ruin his relationship with another girl he started dating.

A Sag can be a nice person yes but, again, he has limits. In general, he will forgive as long as there is no lasting (negative) effect from the incident. If there is he will also forgive in time but maybe not because he wants to. The mighty archer can be a righteous person and he knows that the right thing to do is to forgive so he will grant this pardon but he will continue sitting on his high horse. He will not forget.

If you want to ask forgiveness from a Sagittarius you need to be ready to argue your point much like a defense attorney does in a courtroom in front of the jury. Choose your words carefully and make sure your arguments are valid. The Sag will use his intellect to prove his point so you should be able to do the same. Trying to appeal to his righteous side might help a lot. Make him feel (forgiving) it’s the right thing to do and he will grant you that. If all else fails walk away with this experience and learn from it.

It is a difficult task at best to succeed in capturing the heart of a Sagittarius and getting him to commit to a one on one relationship. However, if you are fortunate enough to accomplish that, you also want to be very careful not to do anything to doom the relationship. There are five things you can do that would doom your relationship with a Sagittarius.

1.Try to control your Sagittarius.
Sagittarians do not like to be controlled. They are content to go about their own business and do not need anyone in their lives. They must always be in control, and if you attempt to take control, you will lose.

2.Be boring
Sagittarius has a very active mind and cannot tolerate people who are boring. He needs to have challenges, things that will allow him to use his superior intelligence to explain and understand the things in his life. It doesn’t matter whether it is things that happen every day or in an exotic location. The Sagittarius would be happy visiting a third world country and during his travels would need to discover why the people don’t have enough money and food to support their families.

3.Fail to accept him as he is
It is important to accept your Sagittarius as he is. There are specific traits that are common to the Sagittarius including his refusal to be controlled, and you have to be willing to accept these things or your relationship will not work out. You cannot try to change him into the person you want him to be or think he should be.

4.Try to keep him on a leash
The Sagittarius is not a homebody, he enjoys adventure. If you attempt to keep him in one place he will walk away. That doesn’t mean he will never want to stay home if you get him to commit to a relationship, but he will always have the need for adventure even if it is close to home. He would much rather go on a camping trip or the beach than spending his vacation sitting and talking with relatives you see only once a year.

5.Try to make him do something he isn’t ready to do
While this holds true of many things, it is especially true of commitment. It is very difficult for a Sagittarius to make a commitment, and the more you pressure him, the less likely he will be of giving in. Even if he falls in love with you it will be very difficult for him to make a permanent commitment, so you need to let him go along at his own pace. When he is ready for something long-term he will let you know. Just because he loves you does not mean he is ready to give up his freedom. In fact, many Sagittarians believe it is their goal in life to be with several women rather than committing to just one.
