the guy i've been talking to long distance has never been great with expressing emotions but he does reach out every day. recently we've gotten into a few tiffs via texting and he told me that he hates having any sort of serious convo via text, that we should talk on the phone more, etc. anyways, he kept texting but started pulling away gradually.. wouldn't text me as much, short responses when we did talk.

finally i asked him what's going on, he agreed communication has tapered off but he said it's because he's busy with work. he assured me nothing is wrong, that he'd tell me if that were the case, that he just doesn't wanna keep having the same convos that stir the pot over and over.. so he said we're on the same page, we agree more phone calls are necessary and that he isn't angry and things are fine. but i haven't heard from him today.

what's going on? any input on how i react to this situation or what's happening? i'm not very familiar with astrology haha

Lol but you didn't offer any advice on what she should do. You just told her she's boring and he's busy without telling her anything insightful or helpful to resolve her situation. So what do you think she needs to do click to expand
click to expand

You haven't learned anything from me have you.

She feel that he's started to pull away. So she should be more proactive by calling him first and make perhaps the conversations less boring.

Or he's just busy like he said and the OP was just paranoid. Give him a break.

have you met in person? how frequently you meet up? what does it mean "long distance" in your case? what is the plan (realistic) to make this long distance a no distance?

its impossible to say anything if you dont give details.... maybe you had a thread about your backstory, can you sum it up briefly?

Edit: so many new people on the aqua board who registered yesterday... is it a trend? is there anything in the air? 🙂

Lol. Yes, i guess you can see it like that. But it is implying she doesn't send jokes and sexy pics, but is rather confronting issues within the relationship by texting what's bothering her about him, instead of talking about it rationally. He's shut down whatever line of questioning or complaining by avoiding the topic and telling her to talk to about it, not texts it. click to expand
click to expand

Again not shutting down

She haven't heard of him for just today ffs

She's acting like a boss who loss his secretary

update - he did reach out yesterday, messaged me something funny and asked me my opinion on it. i kept things light; he engaged in a way i am used to. light hearted and a bit cool but not absent. i also want to note it was while he was at work. the convo tapered off as it has in the paat because he asked me a question and i answered it; and he said “nice” ..doesn’t warrant a reply imo.

the thing that’s bothering me is that there was no phone call or text after that all night. i keep thinking ofer the months and that’s happened before.. but now i’m over analyzing.

i’m a gemini. we talk about mostly lightly hearted things but whenever i ask something he perceives to be serious (like something to affirm he likes me) he gets annoyed and says that he doesn’t like having convos over texting. just days ago he told me he feels no matter whatever he says i don’t believe him when he says he likes me.

he also said i make him happy most of the time. its only with the baiting things in text that put him off and as long as we don’t do that it’s fine.

i want to note in our convo a few days ago he started it by saying very pleasantly “nothings wrong, i told you that.. if there was something i’d just tell the u. i’m focusing on work right now and just busy and i want more phone calls. that’s all.”

do you guys think continuing to give him space is a good option ? i was light and easygoing and engaging in our convo yday and made no mention of if he’s mad or

how he’s feeling. that seems to set him off.: asking if he’s losing interest. i’ve stopped that entirely (i wasn’t doing it often anyway; only when he became aloof)

he asked about my day, i haven't replied yet. i will reply once i get a chance to.. i really am treading lightly though. he pulled back so much over the last week, is there a chance he's warming up again since i've stepped back too? should i continue mirroring his actions? i'm confused because he said he doesn't like texting much and he's busy and wants more phone calls but then he messages me..

wittygem, i really appreciate your insight. well, i appreciate everyone's insight. even arielviews 🙂

i just tend to overanalyze things and create these wild scenarios in my head if someone isn't acting in a way i'm used to. i'm not sure if that's a gemini thing?

actually, i am so naive when it comes to signs. could someone break down what a gemini's personality is like vs. an aqua? and if we're even compatible?

I don't see any problem or argument. click to expand



Here:

"recently we've gotten into a few tiffs via texting and he told me that he hates having any sort of serious convo via text," click to expand



He's inderectly saying that she better send me jokes or sexy pics through texts.

Why so serious? click to expand



Lol. Yes, i guess you can see it like that. But it is implying she doesn't send jokes and sexy pics, but is rather confronting issues within the relationship by texting what's bothering her about him, instead of talking about it rationally. He's shut down whatever line of questioning or complaining by avoiding the topic and telling her to talk to about it, not texts it. click to expand



Again not shutting down

She haven't heard of him for just today ffs

She's acting like a boss who loss his secretary click to expand



I agree but, i think there's more to it than that and it's been going longer than one day because she said:
"he kept texting but started pulling away gradually.. wouldn't text me as much, short responses when we did talk"



click to expand

Yeah cause the conversations were boring. Back to my first post. click to expand

You have me cracking up over here with your responses!!! 😆

He's busy and bored talking to you.


🤔 is this supposed to be advice?

I remind you again that I positioned myself as the aqua men counsellor here in Aqua board. click to expand



Lol but you didn't offer any advice on what she should do. You just told her she's boring and he's busy without telling her anything insightful or helpful to resolve her situation. So what do you think she needs to do click to expand



You haven't learned anything from me have you.

She feel that he's started to pull away. So she should be more proactive by calling him first and make perhaps the conversations less boring.

he asked about my day, i haven't replied yet. i will reply once i get a chance to.. i really am treading lightly though. he pulled back so much over the last week, is there a chance he's warming up again since i've stepped back too? should i continue mirroring his actions? i'm confused because he said he doesn't like texting much and he's busy and wants more phone calls but then he messages me..

wittygem, i really appreciate your insight. well, i appreciate everyone's insight. even arielviews

i just tend to overanalyze things and create these wild scenarios in my head if someone isn't acting in a way i'm used to. i'm not sure if that's a gemini thing?

actually, i am so naive when it comes to signs. could someone break down what a gemini's personality is like vs. an aqua? and if we're even compatible?
Stop mirroring. Aqua (or should I say I) hate it.

If he's pulling away then you need to step up your game. Be proactive and aggressive.

Stop doing mirroring crap.

Sorry hun that Aqua-Gemini compatibility is just a myth. Unless you have Sag moon hehe

the guy i've been talking to long distance has never been great with expressing emotions but he does reach out every day. recently we've gotten into a few tiffs via texting and he told me that he hates having any sort of serious convo via text, that we should talk on the phone more, etc. anyways, he kept texting but started pulling away gradually.. wouldn't text me as much, short responses when we did talk.

finally i asked him what's going on, he agreed communication has tapered off but he said it's because he's busy with work. he assured me nothing is wrong, that he'd tell me if that were the case, that he just doesn't wanna keep having the same convos that stir the pot over and over.. so he said we're on the same page, we agree more phone calls are necessary and that he isn't angry and things are fine. but i haven't heard from him today.

what's going on? any input on how i react to this situation or what's happening? i'm not very familiar with astrology haha
if he's working he doesn't wnt to be disturbed.

i would just let him come to u..

i know it's hard...but u gotta do this.

Traditionally Mercury is domicile in Gemini and exalted in Virgo (or is it the other way around I forgot).

But I've seen some tables with Mercury is domicile in Gemini and Virgo, exalted in Aquarius)

wittygem, i really appreciate your insight. well, i appreciate everyone's insight. even arielviews

i just tend to overanalyze things and create these wild scenarios in my head if someone isn't acting in a way i'm used to. i'm not sure if that's a gemini thing?

actually, i am so naive when it comes to signs. could someone break down what a gemini's personality is like vs. an aqua? and if we're even compatible?
can you please answer my previous questions? have you ever met in person? how frequently you meet up? what does it mean "long distance" in your case? what is the plan (realistic) to make this long distance a no distance? when is the next time planned to meet him in person?
