I will weigh in on how aquas show interest.
Basically, he will stare at you. A lot. Besides that, aquas tend to start behaving awkwardly when around people who they like or are interested in.
Posted by sultrykittyIf an aqua puts up with Leo's want for attention and illogical fieryness, then he likes you.

Posted by aquarius_beautyI think Leo males and Aqua females are very different from their opposite sex counterparts. I have seen a lot more Leo f / Aqua m work out more often. In both cases, it seems to work forever or not at all.Posted by sultrykittyWould this apply to an Aqua female/Leo male?
Since you've gotten a few answers from the guys, I'll just offer you a little insight into Aqua guys' behavior from a female Leo's perspective (having gone through this and made it past this phase).
For us, our man is EVERYTHING. Especially in the beginning when feelings are new and intense. We think that's the way it SHOULD be all the time and if we get that feeling with someone, it's a sign that this guy could be The One. And we'll do anything to keep that going. It works pretty well with other signs but not so much with Aqua.
They see those intense feelings as deceptions; distractions. It makes things complicated, and they don't like that. So when our enthusiasm for the relationship starts to seep into their psyche, it kind of freaks them out. They HATE losing control.
So you have to follow his lead, even if that means some level of detachment. For Aqua, love and passion are only two aspects of a fulfilled life, and they'll approach a person of interest with the same logic as they do making a decision about what career to choose or what financial investments to make.
It's a much more sober approach vs how we go about love.
I would say that as long as he is making contact, taking time to spend with you, and as long as you're feeling a connection--he is feeling it too. You have to learn to intellectualize his feelings for you. I.e., *know* how he feels for you vwhen you're apart by remembering how you feel when you're together. That obviously takes time to build that confidence, but if he wasn't interested or he loses interest, he will tell you.

Posted by aquarius_beautyYep, that's how it was with us at the beginning too. But I think Leo women are more "malleable" (for lack of a better word) than Leo men. Still stubborn yes, but willing to give in more for our men. I think Leo men are much more dominant and won't bother with a woman who doesn't respond to his tactics. We women tend to stick it out longer and compromise more. Not doormats, but we can accomodate more easily. If we do that with the wrong one, it spells trouble and we can be taken advantage of.Posted by sultrykittySucks. Because it is true. I am detached and closed off emotionally. It's hard for me to open up and I always doubt his intentions. I'm always second guessing what he meant and I feel like he pulls back when he doesn't get the response he seeks. I do care. But I'm not one to kiss anyone's ass. I think there lies in the problem. Since he uses his usual tactics on other women that work but with me, he gets the opposite result.Posted by aquarius_beautyI think Leo males and Aqua females are very different from their opposite sex counterparts.

My first real love was an Aqua (didn't work out and ended very badly), and Mr Aqua's first real love was a Leo (same ending).
I'm not sure what your Leo man is doing that is making it difficult for you. I think the Aqua detachment is more pronounced in men than in women, and that's probably the main issue for us Leo women, who also like freedom (which Aqua is great for) but want to be ADORED. Aqua guys just can't outwardly give us that.
I don't know if that dynamic exists in your guys' relationship.
