They are undescisive as hell. I have yet to meet a Libra who can make up their minds about anything. They are similiar to Leo's in a sense that they have a larger than life presence. For the most part, it is rare for a Libra to have an enemy because they are so friendly, and hate confrontation. Libra's are a very cool sign, but I personally do not get along with them.

Libras like to make informed decisions. Libras have a natural eye for beauty, and like things that are nice to look at. Libras are social butterflies. Libras like attention on their butts. Libras like shopping, gossip, parties. Where the action is, Libra wants to be there. Libras like wind and fog and other phenomena. The best pals for Libras are Aries and Gemini.

Libras are compassionate and easy-going. They are great at getting the job done, whatever it may be. They do not mind following orders. Libras are careful when it comes to words. They get along with just about everyone.

The typical Libra is artistic and refined, has very strong opinions regarding right and wrong, and is a born diplomat.
They are also charming and sincere, but when unhappy or frustrated in their ambitions they may exhibit some less attractive traits, such as laziness, narcissism, and indecisiveness. Librans are uncontrollably flirtatious, and even though they may not intend to cause any discord by this, to them, harmless habit, it may get them in hot water with those who regard is as a symptom of underlying dissatisfaction.

indesicive
independant, head strong
articulate
dreamy/romantic

"Fairness is a typical characteristic of this sign. Librans need beauty, balance, and harmony, although they can be indecisive. Romance and relationships are very important, and a Libran would much rather make peace than war!"
However, i am a libra, and must say that i was VERY suprised when i read the description at this link: http://www.vegaattractions.com/astrology/signs/libra.html
It describes me so well that it is unnerving. The above link i would reccomend.

Libras are very nice to be around, easy to talk to. They are procrastinators, tending to put everything off until the last possible minute until you want to pull your hair out!!! They are usually non-judgmental and can see both sides of an issue. They don't like to make decisions. Howz that?

I've heard we're supposed to be "balanced"
Other's have said a libra is wishy washy, and can't make up decisions.
I sure wish I could decide which answer I want to give you for sure.....it's probably best just to give you both.
