Hello all, I’m back about the Aquarius and seeking confirmation?

Me and this aqua are people who have mutual friends, we started to chat online and over the last month we’ve gone from sometimes saying hello to talking everyday, morning and night.

My friends seem to think he likes me (I like him) but I’m a little worried that he’s just friendly? With us both being air signs it’s not uncommon for us to get along and chat a lot? At first he’d not really talk to much, but over the last week he’s started to become really chatty and he’s joining me more and more in group calls with friends etc. we also join calls just us two. And I know it sounds like we both dig each other, but I’m really not sure because the last time I thought this about an aqua he went and dated my friend..

and If it is mutual how do i go about telling him?

You’re right, as air signs you never know.

Is he single?

Maybe throw out how you’re waiting on him to ask you out. Something playful


I feel like that’s a little to forward lol? Ive been hinting at wanting to meet up by making little jokes and he went along with them but nothing to serious.

As a Gemini I am quite forward, and I have been with him more than I would normally (I’m usually in and out of like with people very quickly) but I don’t want to be the only one chasing you know?

If he’s not willing to meet up in person with you ‘as a friend’ he most certainly isn’t trying to get romantically involved.

Don’t be aggressive and cringe with pick up lines.

Invite him to meet up with you in person for a coffee or activity during the day, aka friend vibes. See how that goes first.

I’m betting once you meet in person that crush you’ve been building up in your head will peter out. Reality has that effect.

That’s true, I’m super awkward in person and he’s also anti social so that should be interesting? Either we’ll chat for days or we’ll never speak again lol. I guess with us always talking to each other it feels more because I don’t do this with just friends.

Just ask him out. I once asked a Gem girl out (cap moon) and she was so weird. She left halfway through the date although it wasn't a date more like a friendly date. Then she kept in touch when all I wanted was to meet. Then one day out of nowhere she asked me out but I had a gf by that time. So idk. I'd say best is to be direct to avoid confusion, even if he isn't direct, you can be.


I don’t want to ruin the friendship, I’m blunt with my actions somewhat, I point out the things I like about him, I flirt with him and I half jokingly mention meeting up (which he responds in a similar manner).

I’m just worried that for him it is just friendship, you Aqua are a lil….hard to read. He seems to enjoy my company somewhat so I know that’s a good sign.



Also she didn’t deserve you that’s so mean

Well therein lies the dangerous fantasy of only having an online relationship. You can portray yourself as somewhat other than who you are. For you that means outgoing and social when in real life you tend to be a bit awkward. Who knows what version of himself he is showing you.

You see what he shows you and your brain fills in the rest. Thats why I call it a fantasy until you meet irl.

I don't hold grudges. Idk if it's an Aqua thing but being friendly is good for us in many ways. I don't think you'll ruin the friendship, but I know Geminis and air signs like to keep friends and people close cause we are communicative. But what if some other girl comes along, how will that affect your friendship?

funny you should say that, there lies my issue with aquas, I always seem to think theres more then bam outa no where you start dating someone but still try to talk to me and out of respect for the girl friend i take myself out of the equation.

There is another girl tbh, he spends alot of time with me and her. She talks to me but i know she sizes me up alot which makes me suspect she likes him. Hes actually told me clearly though hes not interested in her which makes me feel like he may like me because why else tell me? i never asked.

I think for now I'm going to try and arrange a meetup, see if the vibes are still there and go from there?

I think it’s pretty common for aqua men to prefer friendship first before getting serious. I’m dating one and he’s pretty much like that when we are just texting. In the beginning he wasn’t really open about his thoughts/feelings which made things confusing right? Sounds familiar I bet lol. However if I asked a relationship question he would answer honestly. It’s now been 4 months and I see progress with him opening up and communicating in a way that makes me feel a little more secure. So I think it just takes time with some aquas.

Although I gotta say… in person he’s a different guy. He’s overly affectionate and clingy. Thinking that’s because he’s a Scorpio moon tho… like me

It sounds very similar lol, although he is kind of open, he talks about when he’s having a tough day and stuff but nothing that reveals anything about him if that makes sense? I think I’ll try the relationship questions, that’s not to obvious right? 😂

What gave HIM away? What showed you he as interested?

I actually think the direct approach gave me the most clarity. Not just asking questions but stating how I feel or what I’m thinking sometimes in a passive way has worked too. I noticed he listens to me and then does what he thinks makes me happy even if it’s not an immediate action. I now try not to put pressure on him too so it’s more of a calm non serious approach if that makes sense.

I still kind of wonder if it’s going to turn serious because it is moving so slow. But I felt the turning point when he started to open up to me about stressful things in his life. He also told me last week he liked me. Again this is 4 months of knowing him…

You’re not chasing.

You’re suggesting.

But if he didn’t pick up on your previous suggestions, he’s probably not interested

Could be he's playing with you. He probably wants control. Depends if you're up for those type of games tho.

Or he isn't interested. Either way he knows what he's doing.

I don’t think he’s playing with me, he seems sweet but I’m starting to lean more towards he’s interested just not alot yknow? Like a curious thing, I practically begged to know him more only to get nothing in return so I’m gonna just give him the same energy from now on. He’s just a guy on the internet at the end of the day, he seemed cool. I liked but I’m not a fool lol.

Aquarius man here, age and life experience plays a factor in the Aquarius mind set. Early teen and twenties I played by the rules. This kept me from being me and people pickup on this. In my 30s I new I needed to blend in to meet my goals. Well it's to much work and I like being me. I found a friend that held me refine my direct approach to life. I hope this helps....welcome to the independent variable...I live my life with only one rule that most will agree but find hard to live by. No mater how you feel about a situation one question can solve any problem. HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF IT WAS DONE TO YOU? if you would like to break down wall for an Aquarius be straight up no BS. Aquarius is trying to navigate the social norm so the other individual doesn't run for the hills. In the S&M community understanding and compliance are achieved with one main question. WHAT ARE YOUR HARD NOs. You need to be very clear in this answer because you just unlocked the Aquarius mind and body. Somethings will be far out there and some disturbing. Keep it 100 share your true feelings on any subject. He can tell if your uncomfortable and could be testing you. He's not trying to be weird he is testing your boundaries. This will lay the foundation for future conversation. On a personal not if your not ready to face your own demons do NOT ask an Aquarius for there thoughts on the subject. He is never out to bring anyone down but if your asking he will answer with his OPINION. Don't get mad he is only trying to help and he is only treating you the way he would won't to be treated. That is no BS straight up no sugar added. My mom calls it uncouth and socially unfit. My circle is very small and I hope to remedy this with like minded people. Nice to be here what are your HARD NOs—
