I think sometimes if a guy is a bit distant after a great night together, he can be the type who is afraid of intimacy. They can get a bit anxious, so they do things to deactivate from that feeling of being very close.

What are they anxious of? Many things. Caring about someone and being hurt, being trapped into commitment too quickly, missing out on other women, being engulfed emotionally too quickly, picking the wrong person etc.

Distancing behavior is stuff like pulling away after a good date, flirting with other women, mentally picking on flaws in your girlfriend, pining after a phantom ex etc. All these behaviours are kind of designed to create a distance and leave you feeling the guy is a bit "distant".

The solution is to pull back also, if he is distant, match him.

It might also be because he is an Aqua! I have dated two. One was never distant, always made me feel he liked me and we got closer and closer. The other one made me feel unsure, was distant and up and down and he ended up cheating on me (and now wants me back) - but I think the latter guy was just not of the mind set of wanting commitment.

I think simply if people want to be intimate and get closer and closer then they come closer and closer. when they becomes distant (regardless of sun sign) there are three possibilities.

1. They need a little space after being so close.

2. They don't like you that much or have other options.

3. They are scared of being too intimate with anyone.

If it is (1) you have nothing to worry about, just give him space. If it is (2) you can watch his behavior for other signs of this and they will be kind of obvious and if it is (3) run for the hills because people like that end up hurting you!

I can say as an Aquarius that when I do pull away that I'm just trying to deal with my feelings/emotions without exposing them to others, even loved ones. I don't mean to hurt anyone and I don't usually understand why people get confused/hurt by it, mainly because if I've told you that I like you I'll still mean it until I don't. If I feel my partner pulling away I tend to assume that they don't like me as much anymore and I'll respond accordingly, at least for me.

This is all for me, it can be different for others of course. It's my experiences being a male Aquarius.
