"Indecision isn't the question. What you do next is."
Six quick picks first, then your reading
A blindfolded female figure balances two swords upon her shoulders. Swords represents knowledge and thoughts and the two card represents duality. Together the two of swords represents competing choices-- a kind of indecision paralysis.
You have two competing thoughts in your head: these thoughts are weighing on you and holding them both is causing a lot of anxiety. It makes sense to be anxious, the outcome will be important. But the fear is paralyzing you. Romantically, maybe you are avoiding a conflict you know you need to have (maybe your current partner is not meeting your needs). When making a big decision it's important to look back to what you truly value and evaluate which option matches those values.
Your deep truth is being clouded by someone else, or you are doing something that isn't good for you in the long term. Making any step forward towards what is healthy for you is good; you don't have to know everything to move in the right direction.

Two of Swords for Virgo in Love and Relationships
The Analyst
Swords are the air suit, so the Two of Swords sits in Libra. Libra sits directly beside Virgo, the one relationship a sign cannot see clearly because it is too close to get any distance on. What it asks for is this: write the sentence down and stop rewriting it. The difficulty is noticing it is being asked at all. Upright, the second thing has actually arrived and the negotiation between them is live.
When reading about relationships through a Virgo lens, the Two of Swords says that you feel like your partner is someone whose life you can improve, a problem you can solve (or prevent), and a person you check on more than you check in with. This has either led to a partnership where you catch things before they break, or to your care feeling like an obligation nobody asked for. The thing you're not saying out loud is the thing that matters most. The Virgo blind spot in it is the feeling of being useless, or of having wasted time on something that didn't hold up.
In practice that can look like the truth arriving. Whatever form it takes, it is becoming a two person situation.
