Hey guys!

Leo girl here. I was never really into astrology before meeting this aquarius, who is everything that his sign says he is. I have a big communication problem with him. Our story starts 4 years ago. I was 18 he was 22. We started talking once in a while, then every day, and finally saw each other. I was head over heels for him. Him, on the other hand seemed more detached and distant. Disapearing and reappearing days later. One day, he told me to forget about him, since he was moving in another state to work. He told me he didnt want me to get attached to him, only to get hurt when he leaves. But then a couple days later he comes back around asking me to wait for him and not see anyone else, and that he would do the same. I agreed. We kept contact until he left. But when he was away, No texts, no calls, no contact for more than 2 months.

I started dating this sag guy who was the complete opposite of him. Perfect. He was the one to make our relatinship official by posting pictures of us on social media. Aquarius saw that, and texts me the same day saying "i thought we agreed on not seeing anybody else". I said he has no right to tell me that after ignoring me for two months! He said "You're right. What if i make an effort to talk to you on a daily basis, would you leave him for me?" I said it's too late now. He deleted me off everything, and we stopped all contact with each other.

4 years later, I just broke up with my sag. It was a beautiful relationship with someone i'll respect for the rest of my life. Aquarius adds me on social media again, but still no talking. Then on a random night, he texts me: "Hey. I know you must think it's really wierd of me to come talk to you after all this time, but I was wondering if you wanted to meet up for a coffee." I agreed. And this time, I was the more detached one. I guess I didn't want to do the same mistake and run after him again. He would be the one to text me,he would want to see me nearly every day. Me, on the other hand, didn't want to go theough another heartbreak, so I kept my distances.

One night, we talk and laugh just like we always do, like best friends. He pauses for a minute, looks at me, and leans in for a kiss. I freaked out. I hadnt been with anybody since my ex,and I had never kissed him. So i pushed him away. He asked what was wrong, and I froze. I told him nothing, but it's getting late so I want to go home. He was really taken aback. And I really wanted to tell him something, but I lost control, was blushing like crazy and i went back home i had forgot my shopping bag in his car!

He texts me later telling me : Hey. I think i should take a little distance next time I see you. I don't want to make you feel unconfortable. I answered him that I freaked out because I havent kissed anyone since my last boyfriend. Then I said : maybe it's because we know each other for so long? He's like "I know exactly how you feel..that's why I'm saying this". I asked if he means to tell me he doesnt want to see me anymore. He answered "No! Not at all, in fact I like spending time with you. I just mean I'll back off a little..maybe wére better off friends, don't you think?" My pride got me to answer him "maybe you're right.." But he kept on insisting like "but what do you think about it??" I said maybe it's really because we've been "friends" for so long, and it feels wierd to take that next step"

So i guess that meant that we would stay as friends, and i started regretting. The very next day I asked him to go for a coffee. He agreed but canceled on me the next hour, saying he's really tired and works in the morning. Since then, nothing. Almost a week, and he took his distance right away.

What should i do? I know aquarius like their space so I don't want to keep on texting him and smother him! Do i leave him be or should i move on, like last time and forget about him?

That's what I keep telling myself. I feel like even when he does all those things, I can read what he really means behind it all. You have to understand we're talking about someone so discreet, nobody knows who he's dated in the past. And we grew up together in a small town where everyone knows everyone! I know it's hard for him, but I feel like I want to make him understand that I'm not and I wasnt trying to push him away, I'm just being cautious with him considering all the misunderstandings of the past. 😢 I feel like he really wants to confess something, & when I think he's about to, he backs off and disapears for days! I'm constently walking on eggshels so I don't scare him off, but it's getting harder!

Some of us are like this, some are not. Some of us change this behaviour, some don't.

You've obvious stepped on his pride a little bit. It took me a while to tell my Leo I liked her but she didn't need to hear it, she knew it already. Difference is I don't usually recoil as the aquas described in this forum.
He's stepped on my pride countless times before! I needed to hear him say it four years ago, and he couldnt. Now, it's like things have changed and at the same time, nothing as changed. Why are aquarius men so scared of feelings?! ?

He loved you 😢

You just have to be patient. My ex was aqua and we had LDR beacuse of his job, we had no contact at all for 6 months, and it was fine. He's loyal and I was commited, and he came back to me as promised. All you need is to wait and to trust.

Usually an aqua would not want to connect with you again after feeling betrayed, or feeling rejected, cuz it hurts a lot. Now that he did, i'm so sure he really loved you. He had hard times dealing with feelings and when he comes to you, it's a big deal for him 😢

If you want him, don't push him away, learn to trust and be patient.

But, well, if you're an impatient leo who needs stability and constant attention, there's no helping it, find someone else. Just move on.
Leo's are the only ones who make me happy then sad☺ ?

Same thing goes for you guys! Why do you keep pushing us away then come running back the moment you feel as if we're moving on?

If he loved you or not, it doesn't matter.

What matters is: do you see yourself with him in another 4 years time? He will often display such cowardly, avoidant behaviour when he doesn't get his way, because that is how he is.
No, I don't.

So you think I should just ignore him, even when he comes back?

I would give him a taste of his own medicine. Did he offer friendship to you? So did mine. In fact, we've been "friends" for the most part of 2015, when I dated someone else. Do you think he treated me like a buddy? To some extent, he did. We had good conversations like two friends who like and help each other. But then...he constantly asked for things that we used to do before, when we were lovers: yes, there were some hints to our former mind blowing sex, but most of all, he was craving cuddles, kisses and walks hand in hand.

Practically, he wanted to use me for emotional support, just like one gets from a girlfriend/ wife, but without the commitment and responsibility of a boyfriend/husband.

So if he offers friendship to you, go on and have a meal and a chat with him, but nothing more. Treat him like a buddy. Tell him off and remind him of what you are, each time he tries to suck you emotionally. See what does bring to you....getting back your power, flattering compliments, whatever.

If you think you can do that (I can), fine. If not, there is always "no contact" and blocking him off.

That's great advice.

He offered me friendship, but in the way he asked, I could see he just really wanted me to decline it and ask for more. I didn't want to let him have his way though, so I agreed to being friends as if it's not bothering me the slightest bit! The thing is, we've never slept together and that kiss was our first "attempt", since he was always so unsure of what he wanted. We were always dancing between friendship and love. We didnt have to be physical to know that, just the way we would look at each other said more than enough. I don't look at my friends that way, and I sure hope he doesn't either.

Idk lol

I have the utmost respect for Leo character but you guys bring out our true nature. We can't help but spazz out.

The only tough part is giving all that attention. We do the opposite of what most people would do. When we withdraw it's because we want life to take its course and if it's meant to be it's meant to be

We're not asking for you to give us all your attention! Leos are really independant and respect their lover's independance too. We just want you to let us know we're not crazy or imagining things, because with you guys its 1 step forward, 3 steps back!

Yes you are right

It's the part where we have to "reassure you are not crazy and imagining things" that gets us

I'll admit I'm terrible at it and have yet to meet an aqua that is good at doing this

I know that. But does it take for you to open up even just just a little bit, about your feelings? Should I give him space and wait for him to come back on his own? I mean I can't force him to talk to me!

Honey, he is just "not that into you."

Aquarius don't act like that when they like you.

he treats you like a toy. Play, leave alone, pick up when bored, discard.

I think the more important question is why are you letting this guy treat you like shit.

He says "forget about me" In other words - you don't mean diddly squat to him

He had a back lash mainly regarding 'attachment' issues when he cut off the association only to leave you without communication.

Then he randomly contacts you out of the blue, you do one thing he doesn't like and he's feelings for you are so nonchalant he cuts you off again.

Girl please. Why are you even asking about him? Leave this jerk alone and go on about your life.

I don't let him do anything. It's not like I chased after him, EVER. In fact I was never the one to iniciate contact.

I'm not asking if he's into me or if he likes me, i KNOW he does. I'm asking how I can make him come out of his shell , express his feelings a bit more & stop running away at the first sight of emotion. I know how it is to hide your feelings for someone you deeply care for, because that's exactly what I've been doing too. He doesn't know I care that much. I was nonchalent when he asked me if I wanted him to back off. None of us ever put our egos down and he rejected me as many times as I did. Don't forget were talking about someone I've known all my life, it's not some random hookup i met at the bar!
