The way we treat you as friend in the beginning, is eventually how we still treat you when we become more intimate. People are expecting us to be huge romantics after that. We are the signs of communication and social life. Not charmers like the libras or natural romantics like the Taurus. Yes, he will keep having his off standish and detached moments even when you are official because we like freedom, independence, and space.
If you're the clingy type, aqua man is not for you. He needs a strong woman by his side that can still love him when he's ready to come back after thinking. We move slow.. And he will not jump into love. You won't see a true aqua be that way. We take our time because it's important that the person we're opening up too really cares for us. Hence, we don't reveal our deepest emotions to just anyone. We need time to warm up, test you, see what you're about, how you really are.
We also do test drives with the people were dating lol we will leave for a bit and see how you handle it. It lets us know if you're strong enough for the times we really need space. If we see you flip or become 10x more clingy, we know that your not the one for us. I do that, it tells me a lot about the person I'm considering to bring in my life.

When I try to make plans with my aqua, I either get a yes or I get "I'll get back to you on that". I think if they're not sure whether they'll be free or if they're not sure whether they want to, they'll be a little vague. Mine always follows up on yes or no without me asking. We've been together three years and I'm okay with the occasional vagueness because I see it as honest. I'd rather him say he's not sure than a yes he'll have to cancel.
Nasha makes a good point. That could be what it is. Maybe be open with how you were and where you were with your life then and honest about how you pushed people away and where you are now with your life. Show the comparison. Just make it a conversation about you and don't ask any questions of him or what he's thinking. Just let him know where you are.
Disappearing for three days is not that big deal for aquarians, doesn't mean anything personal against you, especially if you're not in a stated relationship. They're just busy with family, friends, work, life in general. Stay busy doing your own thing, make plans with friends, do interesting stuff so you'll have good conversation when you do talk with him. Worse thing ever for an aqua is to get in touch and the person has nothing to talk about.
As far as disappearance, in my opinion three days is okay (this happens less the more serious the relationship gets). A week is a bit much, but forgiveable. Two weeks is a deal breaker for me.

uh no. it depends on the aqua. Remember even Ronald Reagan married a Cancer sun with leo moon.
very HAPPILY too, a long lasting marriage.
Also, not all of us are the same. I fell in love at first sight with my ex husband. I wanted him right then and there. And so did he.click to expand
Don't be a bug a boo Lis. I'm saying yes we can be in long term relationships but we still need our time to think. True aquas are not so easy to jump into love meaning more air in their charts like me. You are more earth if anything so of course you want stability at that moment, think about it. You even stated it yourself we go back to all the other post you mentioned about yourself. I am mainly air. I was with my Pisces sun Scorp moon and rising baby father for 5 years. He was possessive, dominating and clingy but still with all that I was with him committed. So it's not that's im satin we're not because we can be I

to me it is.

if he has no respect to contact and tell her what's up, like he has to go to a work meeting for a few days or has to visit his great aunt somewhere far away to pick up an inheritance, or fly to boston to get that bostom creme pie over the weekend, he CALLS her and tells her.
it's really disrespectful no matter how you cut it.
it just shows he is NOT into her at all. because he doesn't care about if she is worrying herself to oblivion that he doesn't care when he doesn't contact for those few days. She is already making wild assumptions, crazy ones in her head and making herself hyper ventilate and staring out the window, or checking Facebook, or twitter or any place, or drive by his house, because she is worried sick.
he's a jerk. period.

I have a feeling you skipped on a few details. If you willingly admit you push people away and he's pegged you as a bit of a flake obviously he's going to have limits on just how much time he'll invest into it. I think what truecap said about demonstrably showing you are self aware to him is pretty important. He can only judge you off what you show him.

My advice is, go with the flow. Don't push him too hard to tell you a clear answer. That's a way to force him and make him leave.
And don't show your emotions. It makes us very uncomfortable. He may be having problems expressing himself from what you have described. I took my girlfriend about 2 years to say 'Yes'. I liked her and tbh, I behaved like your guy and I finally told her 'Yes'.
The key in my case was, she never pushed me to tell her either way and that worked.
This is a true aqua man. He moves slow, he needs time.click to expand
Posted by flowingwaterPosted by lisabethur8
you just didn't love him. he didnt even beat you everyday up or cheat on you all the time and you take possessiveness like it's a crime. well i agreee, you definitely need a dominant airy man. You just don't throw away people you were committed with like that unless they are definitely super TOXIC in your life.
even super airy couples don't take long to think like this.
its more or less, one of them is NOT into you.
Don't tell me I never loved him. 5yrs——— We had a child together, grew together, lived together, and made promises to each other. I left him because he couldn't change for his daughter, who should be NUMBER ONE for his ass. My children come first NOT the man. I'm blocking you again Lis I really thought I could read your pointless summaries but I cant.click to expand

I know mine did/does. Takes a lot of patience and self reassurance.
Thank you!!

Hi Everyone,
Thanks for the replies and excuse my inexperience. I am still a novice in astrology. His birthday is February 3 1987. The chart I found is as follows.
Zodiac in degrees 0.00 Time unknown
Sun Aquarius 13.50
Moon Aries 15.00
Mercury Aquarius 28.33
Venus Sagittarius 27.53
Mars Aries 17.57

Saturn Sagittarius 18.41
Uranus Sagittarius 25.22
Neptune Capricorn 6.53
Pluto Scorpio 9.57
Lilith Cancer 8.03
Asc node Aries 13.29
I am trying to remain laid back and just go with the flow. I figure what's meant to be will always work itself out. In my gut I know he will be back. I'm just debating really between telling him exactly how I feel or playing it cool. I just get the impression Aquarius does not deal well with emotional conversations.

There is emotional stability with an aquarius male. It just takes them a while to give it to you. It's very subtle, though, and without a lot of big guestures. You have to learn to recognize their kind of romance. They won't send flowers, but they will crank your car for you to warm it up when it's cold outside. That's actually very romantic and quite chivalrous if you recognize it for what it is. Flowers are easy. Going out in 20 degree weather takes effort and self sacrifice.
You just have to give them time to want to give that emotional stability to you. They won't be rushed and it has to be on their time table. Most women don't have the patience. They want to skip the development stage and jump straight into the intimacy.
Meanwhile you live your fabulous life and be the interesting, light hearted fun girlfriend. I will admit it's hard, but it's well worth the wait, I promise!

Omg... I love you described this. I'm not very cuddly affectionate but I'll do small things that show I love you. My ex loves cookies n cream ice cream so every once in a while I would have it waiting for him when he got home or I would give him a pedicure because he liked his feet rubbed etc. look for those things from an aqua. Actions speak louder than words.click to expand

Thanks everyone for your input- SUPER helpful.
Aqua man resurfaced today a little over a week with no contact. He questioned me if I had any dates set up for this weekend. This is the first time in all the months I've known him that he casually asks if I'm dating someone else.
Oh you confusing aquas!

After two weeks my Aqua is back again. I can tell he knows what he did is wrong by the way his message was written. I do want to reach out and respond to him and hopefully get the things I've been wanting to say off my chest. My only question is do I wait to respond? I don't want to be childish- were both in our mid/late twenties but I also don't want to jump at his message after he disappeared on me.
I feel pathetic even asking these things at my age but this guy really did a number on me. I'm not usually like this.

Posted by Colorofmysunaet
He keeps me updated what he's doing, sends me photos of his activities/trips, always offers to help me with different things and seems super concerned when I'm Eick or upset.

I guess so but it's been almost two days with no response after that. I guess I'm just frustrated because it seems like mixed signals to me. _??

I met an aqua man 14 months ago. We met very briefly one night and he took my number. We then communicated for about six months via text on an almost daily basis. He asked me out time and time again but I was busy or would cancel on him. To be 100% honest I was coming out of a bad breakup from a long term relationship and was pushing anyone who tried to get close away. At first, I didn't think the Aqua and I would have much in common but we became good friends over these six months of communicating. Unlike other men I was flaky with, he always seemed to have patience for me without seeming desperate.
Over the summer he was out of the country for two months caring for his mother as she passed away. The loss of his mother affected him deeply and he's been open with me about his emotions since her death- which is rare for an aqua.
He returned back to the U.S. in August, at the same time I was heading overseas for six weeks for work. We kept in contact all throughout this time and when I finally returned in October we began to hang out. The first few times we would hang out were very casual and laid-back. He would often invite me to hang out with his group of friends which were all make. Though we never established a "title" in our relationships I could feel he had feelings for me based on his actions.
Around December I began to develop real feelings for him. However, now I am faced with the issue that I am bothered by his disappearing acts. In the past we both disappeared and I didn't care because I just saw him as a casual friend. Now that I am beginning to fall for him, I cannot stand when he disappears.
He has done this twice in the last few months. Once was a few days. I contacted him and asked him if he was mad at me. He was surprised and said of course not, I was his friend and he liked me. The second time was this past week. I asked him if he wanted to hang out and his response was very enthusiastic. However, when I gave hi. A date and time he didn't confirm.
I have talked to other men and been on other dates over the course of our relationship, however I just cannot seem to shake this one Aqua. The problem is I don't know if him not confirming is just a typical Aqua thing or he's done with me or mad at me. To give him the benefit of the doubt, I also have issues with getting close to people and I pull away as well from time to time. He often tells me that I'm flaky and
