Been getting close to an Aquarius over the past two years. He is incredibly shy and scared and admits to being unable to trust or relax because of a hijacking trauma in his family and an intense fear of loss. We have tried to not be friends but we both get too upset. Relationship out of the question at this stage as he has so much to work through. He had a huge crush on me last year for the entire year but of course he was too afraid to do anything about it. Anyway, we chat for hours over text and he confides in me a lot. But the other night he said because he is also my sports coach (yeah, he's really young, but brilliant at sports and coaching) he feels it is likely we will never be close friends. Yet it seems to me we are already close? Seems like a cruel thing to say as on the many occasions I wanted to walk away from our friendship I did not and told him I want to try to understand him - he always said thank you, he appreciates it, he is trying to work through the trauma of the hijacking and his mom's and brother's attempted suicide. But now he says this - we won't be close? 😢
Do Aquarians usually say cruel things?

He sounds like a little broken bitch.
You can do better, find a real man your own age

I know where this is coming from... whether if it's cruel? I don't think so.
Are you able to tell me his birth date? I'm rather curious.

When we lose it, yes.

Posted by ChoXtsySorry, I'm not sure what you mean by 'markers'? LOL
Yeah, they are assholes once they get comfy. Sometimes I think it's just how they show affection.

*venus in Cap
Oh, what does Venus in Cap mean in this context?
Anyway, we have subsequently had an amazing conversation (a three-hour one) - he said I'm on his path for a reason and he accepts that without question, now we just need to overcome our fear to achieve our mutual purpose. We're still both in the 'fear' stage. He admitted his greatest issue is abandonment and even his nightmares are about that. Huge progress. Not that I'm taking it for granted. Giving him lots of space while being supportive in a non-smothering way. 🙂
Said he was an unplanned child and his elder brother got everything. Parents!

I can be cruel to be kind, Cap mercury....
but no one is more crueler and can you cut you DEEP in the gut....scorpio mercury.
aries mercury, arrogantly cruel, as if you are beneath them.
sag mercury, quick to be cruel but easily dies down (PHEW!!!!)
my sister is pisces mercury and I've never known her to be cruel directly.
I don't have much experience with other mercuries...
edit oh yeah aqua mercury, it's airy and it's tyrannical. it hurts a lot too. like a whipping wind.
I just notice if you can't HACK the cruelty, it's best you don't deal with these types. lol
I can't deal with air mercury cruelty, I do easily with fire mercury the best. and water mercury is good, earth mercury works a lot. lol

I have the same placements as your guy Aqua- Sun, Aqua-merc, venus-cap, mars- Cap. I was born a day before he was born. In my personal experience, when I really like a girl, I will do whatever is possible to be with her. See people will always say give an aquarius time and he will realize that he will want to be with you, that is not the case in my life. I will know from the moment I interact with a woman that I see a future with her or not. If I do see a future with you, then i will put in a lot of effort to keep you (taurus side) even if it means that i will have to sacrifice my freedom for it. But if I do not see a future with you, I will come up with a believable sob story about how I am not ready to be in a relationship with you. There will be an excuse as to why I dont think we can work out.
I hope i am not discouraging you by saying this as we are all different. I just want you to understand the reality of things. You may never have the relationship you want and the emotional support of a relationship from your Aquarius man, but you will always have a friend willing to talk to you and go on many adventures with you.
