Aqua M Scorp F, actually getting along?

We met online almost a year ago. Right at the start, we had a couple of very short dates, with almost zero chemistry. We went on with our own lives after the two awkward dates, saw others in between, had brief, occasional late-night chats online, during which he would sometimes flirt in a friendly but detached manner. I never took him seriously, and I never reciprocated, just laughed off his attempts, or played along with him once in awhile.

Months went by, and he started randomly confiding in me about things that were troubling him - like how he was missing a good friend who had left the country, and how it saddened him that he'd fallen out with a colleague. I would listen patiently, comforting him at other times, and telling him sternly to quit being so emotional at other times (lol, this is rich coming from a Scorp to an Aquarius). All till that point, it was very platonic, and we felt more like friends than anything else.

Then awhile back, out of the blue, he asked me out for coffee. This time it felt slightly different. The conversation flowed, we laughed a lot, and it actually felt good. Long story short - he started pursuing me seriously after that date. And a few weeks later, he surprised me with flowers, and asked if I would be his girlfriend - which I agreed to of course 😄

He's been asking to see me daily since then, even if it was just for dinner, or to pick me up from where i happened to be at. He's taken me out for nice dates, and long walks where we'd just talk and walk and laugh. He's even said, (with what seemed like a bit of astonishment in his voice), that this is the first time in many years, since he's felt this urge to want to see someone all the time. He's just been totally sweet, kind and affectionate (at least, as affectionate as an Aqua can be).

It's a rare thing for me to feel genuinely happy and safe when I'm with a bf, which I honestly do with him. I'm in a serene, blissful state right now, and I really hope for it to last. Thing is - especially after reading about how Aquas are notorious for being freedom-loving and emotionally detached - I'm not sure if this is just a thing of the moment for him, or if this is for real. So...I would appreciate if anyone could offer any insight, or if there is anything at all that I should/shouldn't be doing?
