I haven't heard from this guy for 17 days (we have never gone more than a week without speaking for 6 months)
if he was -anything- other than an aqua id tell my ass to move on..

Welcome to Aquamanland 😄 ..

Same situation, he`s not my boyfirend though, met him over a year ago, he did this and kinda went aloof probably from october to january i moved on, thought he didnt like me, he comes back and tells me that i was wrong and that he really does, stayed in touch, never went past 4 days without either of us mailing or texting, usially starts with something silly, we kept saying that we would meet up during this time but just due to being busy and stuff we just didnt get round to it, we both saw other people during this time, from what i understand i moved on first, im not bothered that he did thats life and we were not together, met again late september this year, he has done the same even though we clicked better than ever, its been what about 2 1/2 months, ive had the odd text as a response, just a smile and kiss during that time, I dont know why but last time even though i moved on and wasnt hearing anything i just knew it wasnt the last time i would be seeing Mr Aqua, because it felt like there was a weird connection and our story wasnt over, i dont know what it is, so! maybe im wrong because i feel it again, this time im waiting it out, i must be mad but im intrigued and i do like him, its no skin off my nose because im quite happy to be taking a break from dating anyway, I kinda think its weird that he cant just be how we was if he feels we click so well, im approachable so he can say what he wants, im not bothered about rejection and just being friends, i wouldnt stop being friends just because he hasnt the attraction, life goes on.

i think its down to how you personally feel and how much you feel he is worth it, the thing is with me i dont like to make assumptions for his disappearing because I dont know what may or may not be going on, I could assume he just isnt into me or hes a player, who really knows? .. goodluck 🙂

Nope not my bf, but it was def heading there, I think he freaked and bailed. Coward. we spent 6 months talking daily, excuse me I should say 5 months, and the last month of him slowly fading fading, gone. I already knew about the disappearing thing so I never ever gave him drama about disappearing for a few days, no biggie to me I often took a few days myself but 2 weeks? which Im sure is gonna turn into many more..fuck you.

hell no i wont respond favorably I will tell him to fuck off like I was planning on doing on the 14th and had my opportunity snatched away by him disappearing first.

Its all about pride at this point for me.. No one gets to disrespect me like that, to walk away without a goodbye? (if thats what this is) I am drama free with this man (literally in 6 months we have never had more than a calm discussion about something we disagreed on), he had no reason to feel he could not just tell me he was no longer interested..I thought these guys were straight up? I had already brought up at the start of this how much I really hate when a guy just disappears instead of saying bye, he said hed never do that

and yet....


Ugh, jerk.

Oh and hes definiiitellly not a player, and he was reallllly into me.. no joke 🙂

hes a big bawk bawk chicken. we had both been on dating breaks for -years- so its reallly not easy jumping back in..I get that i really do but this is just disrespectful. I didnt deserve this as an ending yaknow?


Our paths have crossed many times over the years in strange ways neither of us really knew about until recently..

there's something there..
and yet...

sigh no hes gone.

I know i have thought of this haha but then I smack myself and say THATS DUMB.. more like *I* saw it coming, with the fading, we went from talking too much (bazillions of hours a day)to a few times a week..I was ok with it initially (I like my me time too) and figured no biggie, its just aqua recharging his batteries..

but then few times a week dropped to once a week...I just wanted us to be on the same page, and both clear about whether it was done or not...

this disappearing without a goodbye shit is just SO SHIT cause Im really a cancer you know, so it's like.. part of me realllly needed some better closure than "whered he go?" durr

Oh and naturally, when he stopped coming around so much he was extra cute/sweet when he did..letting me know he was coming around specifically for me, cause he missed me type stuff (which normally he would be too prideful to say) so I really let myself get lulled into this false sense of security about the whole thing when really I shoulda been planning my escape weeks earlier.

I JUST WANT CLOSURE


I may very well go down to his pub and pie him in the face. Thats some good closure.

With me I feel alot more laid back about, im not even bothered if he is off getting laid to be honest, he wasnt my boyfriend, I like him as a friend also, Im not gong to wait around like a door mat if someone else comes along who I like more then so be it, his loss more than he realises, I just dont like anyone more than him at the minute plus my social life is looking pretty busy over the next month so I dont know if i could fit him in anyways unless he wanted to taag along for the fun lol, DONT THINK SO THOUGH!

Create your own closure, just do as you was before he was about, if he turns up then do what you want with it and set boundaries whats ok with you and whats not, you may have moved on by then and its his loss.

I have been keeping myself really busy with friends and stuff but thats not the same to me as closure..It just bugs me in a deep way..the cancer in me is really hurt, the leo in me has had her pride tarnished and the aqua in me is like, you know youre gonna be fine in a few weeks just let it go.

-shrug-

I am serious though, closure..a pie to the face is good closure, no?

"I was planning on doing on the 14th and had my opportunity snatched away by him disappearing first."
I don't understand why you care then. Is it ego maybe?

"a pie to the face is good closure, no?"
Although, it would be satisfying, I don't think this is going to make you feel better. The fantasy of doing it is fun, though!

Maybe my cap perspective won't help, but here goes. Just consider it an experience/adventure and let it go. Figure out the lesson learned, if any, and enjoy finding the next guy. You're going to be fine! Odds are you'll find someone who won't treat you that way and you'll be better off for it!

I agree.. you see if you go in with an aggressive approach that kinda justifies him not hanging around, at the end of the day its also an experience which is a test of your character also, its a learning experience for both of you, if thats his way then you will never change him unless he wants to change himself, we all have different values he may just not be courteous for you, doesnt fit, he could be handling issues at the moment, you and I have different values to these guys and we consider it rude based on our own personal values, but think of it this way, at what point were we made girlfriend? never so unless anything has been defined what right is there to demand attention? if we dont hear from one of our every day other friends for a couple of weeks would we go bash a pie in their face for it? no we would probably be worried and concerned and maybe annoyed but probably wouldnt be aggressive about it unless that was our character, do you see what im saying, its not a diss, im just saying dont lower yourself no matter how angry and as frustrating as it is, no one else is responsible for our happiness, he chooses who he wants to be karma will catch up, you have the power to choose how you want to be 🙂

I did not -want- to walk away on the 14th I was only doing so to keep my dignity. (and the chance that it would spurr him into forward momentum - though I promise I was entirely prepared for it to be the end as well) and he took that away from me!

It's bullshit 😢

yes this is a LOT about pride (leo in me: RAWWRR!) but I also really liked this guy. 😢

This sucks for me.

I do not allow myself to "like guys" and haven't for 5 years so this isn't as simple for me as just shrugging and moving on to the next guy as healthy and wonderful as that advice sounds. I am no cappy, I am true cancer when it comes to my love emotions being stomped on.

Stupidly, I convinced myself it was safe to like this guy because he was going through the same five years single, and I'm -Not- gonna be one of those chicks who fills 5 pages convincing you we were meant to be but I'm telling you I could easily fill five pages with reasons we were perfect.

Not even because I believe it to be true, I don't.. any more.

Not after this disappearance,
but I allowed myself to believe in this because there were so so so many strange coincidences, and similarities between us.
Our paths have crossed in weird and wonderful ways our entire lives.

it was -one of those-

and while I agree that yes I will be just fine,(and yes this -was a learning experience) and I have a -very- clear understanding of that
(thank god, cause i sure didn't during my divorce)

it's gonna take some time to heal with this one.

😢

I hear what ur saying i really do (and super appreciate the time you guys r putting into writing in my thread)I even said to my BFF "you and me dont talk for weeks and weeks all the time and we never get mad at each other for it, or feel like we hafta explain where we were"...
but somehow this -is- different and come on you know that too! This guy is sending a very mean signal that hes done with me, and its not ok

me, and its not ok to do it like this..he knows that.

For me.. My inner Leo is trying to take over to protect my Inner Cancer (does this make sense?)

My heart is hurting, my pride is hurting..

if I go there half cocked to throw pie in his face that for me is -my- classic bridge burning move (I am a bridge burner, when its over for me I go out with a bang)

..it sure isnt to convince him of anything or get him back or any of that..if he feels justified, well by all means he can feel free to feel justified..
by the time im throwing pie in your face u can guarantee ive lost interest in how you feel about things.
. it is 100% for me and my peace of mind..
MY closure..

he wont give me closure I will TAKE IT..

He's single, doesn't want to be tied down and has other broads to screw. Aqua men only do this when they're still in that zone. Trust me although a relationship is not what you seek...he sure as hell doesn't want one but will treat you nice as hell everytime he returns because he loves sex, sex from all the women he call his friends whose hearts he's ripped out and don't let the smile fool you he knows he's hurt them but his freedom means more. He's self centered, a child at heart and free as a bird. Don't throw pie...throw shade and forget that bastard ever existed. Wayyy.......to much experience with those damn water bearing men. Oh yea and being the female version aka heartbreaker I'm all too familiar.



Oh we never had sex, neither of us have had sex in several years.. We also spent -disgusting- amounts of time together, believe me there was no time for other broads.. Im not the jealous type though so even if that were the case it would not send me into a frenzy (unless we were together).. he talked constantly of the family he wants and of the way he would be with me "when we are together".. (even how wed treat our future kids)

while I agree he eventually did get scared off by the fear of commitment, , it is also something he very much desires..this is not your typical aqua in this way (i dunno his rising or anything else but theres gotta be other stuff in there) he has been in VERY LONG TERM relationships, 9 years, 6 years, and 5 years...his last one was the 9 year one and hes not over it.
I was ok with this because Im not entirely over things in my marriage of 5 years ago..i was happy to take things as slowly as we were taking them..and then i wasnt any more. :/

keep in mind this guys 37 which does change things a little bit.. They do eventually mature (some)
ah well none of it matters now anyway

If he has gone then look at it this way, he is the one with the issues thats why he cant man up to be straight, no news is sometimes good news, maybe he does really like you and needs some space to get his head around it, maybe he likes you as a friend only and needs to work it out, this is what i mean by you dont know and if the disappearing is because he is being a coward then youve no loss it indicates who he is...

I sent a message earlier to aqua because we have a battle of wills going on, he isnt going to make me snap, he isnt going to make me feel insecure or unworthy, I stick by everything im about, Im a kind hearted woman who doesnt judge and who can stand her ground and by her convictions, just as strong willed as him if he`s playing games, im trying to work out why and what its about but i see he plays games or is testing, i sent a message saying " are you no longer my friend?" he doesnt like the finality, he responded with a real stupid "lol x" it actually made me laugh, i can see he is trying to frustrate me but he wont just let it go either, I want to see how psychologically and spiritually evolved he is lol, its cat and mouse, he hasnt been able to remain friends with women after involvement, Im different, I can, he doesnt really get to me... ive seen a real gorgeous side to him that i dont think he shows too much, i think people give up on him because of this aloofness i also think he gets bored, what, should i turn into a monster because i may feel rejected? nope thats what i cant stand about guys, its superficial.

hah

yeh we play those games too, hes always trying to get a rise out of me, some reaction (he very rarely gets one). That is our dynamic for sure 🙂 Yes his aloofness turns off many, he was VERY aloof to me when we first met and I saw right through it and used my own aqua powers to get my way in really quick 🙂 he shows me a whole different side that no one else would even believe exists.
Yes I imagine he gets bored very easily as well

. As do I and quite frankly I was bored with the status quo, perhaps he felt the same but wasnt ready to move forward either.. no where else to go but away :/

Byebye Aqua you gave up a real good thing

"Oh we never had sex, neither of us have had sex in several years.."


Never take someone's word when it comes to the life they led before they met you. Age does not equal maturity so him being 37 is no excuse. Exspecially since he's past 30 and still can't committ or atleast own up to the fact he can't committ. My in and out aqua is 36 and is not slowing down anytime soon because he's a wild one and is only truly happy with his dog and his privacy. They're usually happier and more content than any other sign being bachelors til death...even more than sags. Not marriage or boyfriend material but defintely na experience that never goes away. Anyways hope things go your way and that if he does want you he man's up either way regardless of his sign no man should leave you wondering....you deserve more than that.



he's actually been in 3 very long term committed relationships, the last one was 9 years and -really- fucked him up when it ended evidently..To be honest I find it sweet and I envy the love they shared. I have never experienced anything worth lasting 9 years or even close to it, and certainly never had a love worth giving a crap about 5 years later.

Im sorry it didnt work out for us because I wanted it too, and also because I know he really does want a family. it is sad to me that he's too hurt from his past to take what he wants but I guess if I had already had it and lost it, I might not wanna risk it either. Then again I'm no coward and he clearly is.
Shame.

I do deserve a better, more respectful ending than this..
I feel sorry for him that he was incapable of giving me even that.
He's no where near as great as I thought, clearly.

I haven't heard from this guy for 17 days (we have never gone more than a week without speaking for 6 months)
if he was -anything- other than an aqua id tell my ass to move on..

is this the cowards goodbye, or some kinda aqua shit?

Whats the longest you or ur aqua have ever done the disappearance thing, whats the longest youd let them go before saying fuck it I don't even care? anymore?



Wow, this one hits close to home. I had a male aqua friend. He was a coworker. We became great supportive friends, dating other people so just platonic but we had the BEST friendship, we went to happy hours, lunch every day and laughing and emailing all day. We had that awesome friendship for 2 years solid...then...he transferred departments and moved to the building across the street and POOF! gone. Overnight. It was incredible. I emailed and called. Nothing. He stopped talking and being my friend for not ONE damn reason...its like I was DEAD.
Finally I saw him one day on lunch coming in a door as I was going out...he looked at me and away as if I was a ghost...I looked back over my shoulder and he was gone, never stopped.
This aqua emailed one day several months kater (like maybe 6 months or so?) kinda like nothing happened.
Our friendship was never quite the same though we still got close again, but the trust was gone.
I never was able to forgive and he never gave ANY explanation even when I asked.
i dont know what to say, but I understand. Sorry 😢(

Ouch hun -hug-

ive had friendships go in strange directions like that too. It always stings, every time no matter how many times you go through and you never understand wtf happened.

I'd like to think that every time this has happened has made me a stronger and more compassionate person. It helps 🙂
