Do other Aquas notice this?
Aquas are the 1st to say that yep, we're stubborn, unemotional, detached & sometimes commitment phobes. Everyone is all ears when we say that.
BUT the minute we add to the conversation that we're ALSO very loyal, intelligent and/or anything POSITIVE, people are quick to throw the "Oh you're so full of yourself" line! Oh give me a break!
Aquas talk more shxt about themselves than any other sign probably! We are the 1st ones to admit that we're slacking in certain departments. And just b/c we don't spend all day beating up on ourselves over our own flaws doesn't mean that we haven't acknowledged our flaws.
Just as fast/easy as we're quick to call out flaws in other signs, we do the same for ourselves. But people only see/read what they WANT to read/see. They only read the part of your writing where you're talking crap about other signs, but they CONVEINANTLY forget to read the parts where you're talking negatively about your OWN sign! People are nutbags!

While others are so quick to make us feel so bad for uplifting ourselves and/or giving ourselves pats on the back every once in a while, they NEED to be focused on handling that "SELECTIVE HEARING/SIGHT" they have.
For every 1 post I've written about how other signs piss me off/other sign's flaws, there's probably 5 forums I've written about the areas Aquas are lacking in. Smh

consieted is when you openly express your pride all the time...and rubbing it in. being proud isnt being conceited. there are negetives in all of us, and yes...aquas have bad traits (who doesnt) but they are brillaint intelectuals who strive to better the world around them. they were made for that purpose...they dont have time fore some crybaby who wants them to talk more or show more emotion...they have the world to take care of. of course they care about you and love you but they wont waste time telling you this every freakin day. they wont call you every day just to say hi. they expect you to respect them for who they are...very loayl friends who wont treat you like shit. sure some aquas believe they are higher than others but then again they are an air sign so naturally they are full of hot air. but your typical aqua friend wont ever betray you and will stand by you and your cause if it is just to them. stop complaining about these people and show them some respect for thier good qualities. they have plenty of them. to supress a genoius will be to hinder the world at large. you could be shunning the guy or gal who will cure the world of cancer or the common flu or maybe even stop the againg gene in our own bodies. these people are creative and inventive and to stunt this would be to hinder our own futures.
all i have to say is look in a mirror and see who you truely are and see if you have the right to judge another person. i like my aquas i know. some good people.

YESSS! Someone that finally understands Aquarians! Ugh, I wish I could come through the computer & hug you right now!!!

But if you'll notice, the only people who get bothered by other people's confidence are those who are insecure and/or lacking confidence in themselves. And when you call them insecure and/or accuse them of lacking self confidence, they get even more mad & call you "full of yourself" all b/c you called them out on something that is blatenly obvious.
Their perception of what confidence is somehow translates into them assuming that confidence=arrogance, boasting, egostical or conceitedness, & it's all b/c they lack self confidence.
It's no wonder those who lack self confidence don't unerstand it!
I don't get my confidence from others; I get it from myself! I don't need 1 million people to tell me I'm smart, intelligent, beautiful or really anything in order for me to believe so myself. But some people would rather you dumb yourself down all just so you can make them comfortable.
I think I'm a pretty intelligent gal. Do I feel superior to others? Never. BUT do I respect everyone's opinion, position, life style , personality, etc.? Absolutely not.
I think it's quite sad that when a person embraces their own strengths, they're seen as conceited or full of themselves. Almost as if they'd prefer for me to wait to hear THEM say it to me 1st before I'm supposed to believe it. Smh
That's 1 thing I love about Aquas. We embrace our strengths AND our flaws. When it comes to our flaws, we embrace them too, instead of beating ourselves up about it. We know that while we may be stubborn among other things, we're ALSO alot of other good things too. But people translate this to mean that we somehow minimize our flaws. No we don't, we just don't go around crying about them. We're very self-aware & half the time, we'll tell YOU what our flaws our before you tell us. We have no shame in admitting it
(Doesn't laugh)
Have you contacted him since? Just to see if he's still alive and kicking? I know I remember you stating you are not willing to initiate contact. But at least, check if he's all right and if he is, tell him what a motherfucker he is for not even telling it's over (if it is what he wants).
Call him a coward as well. Most of the time, Aquas will tell you it's over when it's over. Though there are some who just disappear for months, hoping to be forgotten, and then reappear in your life when you expect it the least.

Wow! Well, hopefully he's been missing you, girl. and I hope it's no bad news he's left. Sure he's checking how you're doing... But damn, 2 weeks with no contact?? Ah, those Aqua men... *SMH*
THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKIN' 'BOUT!
@Dancer: I understand your frustration. Aquas may mean well, but sometimes we need to remember that the only way for others to understand us is if we verbally give them some clarity/assurance sometimes. Communication is essential regardless of a person's sign & this guy failed in the communication department big time! I don't know whether to credit that to him being an Aquarius or him just being 1 of those types of guys in general that doesn't communicate well, doesn't participate in the friendship/relationship and/or doesn't mind allowing a "good thing" to slip out of his fingers. This guy may just be emotionally insecure/unstable/unavailable--that might be the problem moreso than him being an Aquarius in general.
I don't blaim you for not jumping over the couch to listen to his vcmail. At this point, this guy has jaded your confidence & comfortability with him. And if his intentions are to be with you or make you envision any kind of future with him, he better explain himself hardcore! No excuses; he just needs to come out & tell it like it is, so that 1. You will know where you 2 stand & 2. So that he won't have to make an unnecessary enemy if he doesn't have to.

You will know where you 2 stand & 2. So that he won't have to make an unnecessary enemy if he doesn't have to.
I'll tell you what though...Just like I told you guys on this board that Aquas can be stubborn among other things, I tell every person I'm dating the same thing(s) so they won't be surprised. My goal is always to always do my part to make sure that others have the tools/keys in understanding me. But then again, I am very self-aware & have been through alot, so I've learned over the years that inconsistency & lack of communication is a big no-no period (regardless of all the astrology crap). I usually give others a heads up & tell them exactly how I tick. Most don't believe me until they can finally see that I was dead serious, but hey they can't say that I didn't tell them; The "what you see is what you get" creed works for me every time. If I tell them how I am and/or what to expect from me in certain situations (like me unexpectedly growing feelings, for example), they'll atleast be able to stay OR walk away from the situation never being able to say that I lead them on or played games with them.
And it'd be up to THEM as to whether or not they feel they can handle dealing with someone who ticks in the way(s) that I do.
But yeah, expecting others to automatically "just know" is a big no-no & friendship/relationship-killer. Smh
And we Aquas oughta know that better than anyone b/c we can't stand it when someone's words don't match up with their actions! We want people to know that we'll contemplate flying the coop in a heartbeat if we're stuck too many times always wondering where things are going, so I agree that Aquas should def. keep that in mind when the tables are turned & when we're the ones giving others that same feeling

Dancer...I just wanted to tell you before I disappear (deleted my account) that I'm glad you finally heard from your Aqua. I hope the vm was a good one. Either way I hope it gives you some clarity. It's been months and still no word from mine so I have to just believe it's over. Thank you so much for the emails...they've really helped me a lot. It helps talking to someone who understand and can relate.
I still love Aquas. They are truly wonderful people full of life and so darn intelligent. Of course they have their flaws, but damn don't we all?
Aww, you're leaving? I wish you all the best in the real world, babe. Keep positive always. I hope you find true love. And you will. At least, now you are more aware of red flags and you'll know exactly how to act during dodgy situation. Take care of yourself.
This is my advice to anyone who is dealing with an Aqua. My family is very rich with Aquas. I have both guys and girls in my family. To an aqua lover, tell them as it is. Don't beat around the bush or try to save their feelings. For example, if they are being rude, tell them they are crossing the line. They are too emotionally stable for their own good to take offense. Aquarians are original people. What you see is what you get. No hidden agendas. Just tell them what you want because they will tell you what they want.
Another important thing to remember with aqua guys/girls is that we love our space. WE like to disappear. I call that "Isolation galore". Nothing personal. Usually the partner thinks that they did something wrong and that's why the Aqua disappeared. Nothing like that and nor are we galavanting or cheating on you when you don't hear from us. We are just being loners at the moment. Literally loners. Over exposure to a person, whether girlfriend, boyfriend or friend, does that to us. Hope this helps. Aquas are such psychos sometimes..lol.
I'm not much of an emotional person. It's so normal to me to be this way that I expect others to be that way too, which explains my troubles with emotional people. I don't know how anyone would want an aqua guy as a lover. They truly are freakin challenging. Not your typical lover, especially not if you're a lady looking for sweet talk and sufficient attention etc. I'm an aqua girl adn I would never look at an aqua guy. In the beginning, they are not just caring but obessive with their object of affection. But, later "isolation galore" begins whcih obviously stems for their initial obsession/over exposure with the love interest.

Your welcome dancer23. 🙂 Be patient with this isolation dilemma. I have problems with my lovers and friends when it comes to "isolaton galore". My fellow aquarian friends understand when I disappear for a week or two and vice versa. But, all my non-Aqua friends and even my Libra don't understand. I guess when you are in a relationship, it's not just about you and you have no right to disappear, which Aquas have a very hard time abiding by. My mom tells me not to get married bacause "no guy is going to tolerate these disappearances. He'll just go cheat". It's sad that people don't understand 😢 I guess we are emotionally challenged that way 🙂

Okay so just listened to his message. LMAO. He CLAIMS his phone has been broken for over a week. That the screen was broken and he could not see who was texting or calling, or view his contacts as a result. So he could only call the ppl whose numbers he knew by heart, which was not many. That he was just calling to touch base, and said more than once that he was 'not sure if I tried texting him'. And coincidentally I DID text him LAST MONDAY and he didn't respond. So him saying he wonders if I tried to text him is suspect, like he is offering up an excuse as to why I didnt hear back from him. All very convenient.
Then he said he wanted to see how I was doing. I am a musician and he is helping me w/ some projects so he mentioned that. Nothing about a date or seeing me. But thats not shocking because he always tries to act like he is not missing me or whatever. So, you Aqua experts, how should I proceed? Definitely dont wanna berate him for not calling. Im not in the mood for that. And dont wanna show him how stressed I was. For those who dont know, he told me 2 weeks ago when I questioned the nature of our relationship, that basically I shouldn't be questioning him because ''we are not there yet''. As in, I had no right to be asking all these serious relationship questions and putting him on the spot because we have not established that this is a relationship. At least thats what got from that statement. So I told him the next time I saw him, when he wanted to sleep w/ me, that I dont do casual sex and if this is not a relationship, as he has said, then I dont feel comfortable sleeping with him. He took it well and said he wasnt upset and that all he ever wanted was for me to be comfortable....and we hung out and watched TV and laughed a little. I gave him a bday card on my way out. Thought it was all good. And he never called - til today.
I think he was angry he didnt get any, that I took some control over the situation, and was using this time to decide if he wanted to deal w/ me anymore. AND to make me suffer and regain some sense of control by trying to make me chase him. Which I didnt. What to do, what to do??
LOL I just laughed at the broken phone excuse... seriously!! Damn! Does he have your email? Does he have your work number? For fuck's sake, excu'z me, but come on! This is going to go on and on and on and on and on... it's about t
Oops, post cut up! Good thing I copied! Here is the follow up:
on and on and on... it's about time you say something! Because what makes me laugh right now is the way he's acting as if nothing grave has happened.
Okay, he likes his alone time. All Aqua do, but even sending an email or calling you at work (if he has your number) or stopping by your place in one those past 2 weeks would have been great. 8 months of crap! You need to end it now. You need to tell him you gotta move on.
Don't be scared to show your weakness. Self respect right here! Otherwise, this situation will carry on forever and we'll still be talking about it for the next 3 years. You still care for him, you still got feelings for him, of course, but you've got to put a stop or find a solution. I know he told you 'you two are not there yet', but, girl, after 8 months with someone, you truly need to know where the hell you stand.
If he still still give you an answer, well it's time for you to DO you. You cannot wait forever. When an Aqua wants you truly, he'll chase you, be all over you. Yes, he will have his doubts at some points, he will have his alone time, but he will randomly let you know you're still here in his heart, no matter what.

Oops I meant *if he still can't give you an answer*
I'm going out now. Hopefully I wasn't too brutal, Dancer 🙂 Speak to ya later.
I think your analyzing an aquarius way to much. I can't speak for myself but maybe there's another side of the story your not telling us. I am having the same problem with a capricorn woman. We are just friends, I have told her for 6 months straight. At first we met because she was my new neighbor, to make a story short she actually asked me one day to show her around town. I showed her a couple places the next day she texted me and we just hooked up, I told her im not looking for anything serious because I dont get attached easily but I just go with the flow. So we hooked up and had fell into sex and it was randomly, but recently these past few months she has been horribly texting me, telling me how was my day was and how this and how that, and that she misses me, woah big mistake !!! I told her since the begining I just want to be friends nothing else and told her constantly in a nice matter. ........
I know I know I know is her replies, I gave her the space and she continues on to think she see's it her way.
She comes at me like she's my girlfriend or she is my wife, I like being friends with her, she is a very relaxed caring person, she works real hard but then again the bad side about it is she complains alot, needs someone to be around her at all times, and she is very possesive when she isn't even mine, I took her to the mall once and it was a total disaster she would get mad when i got new outfits when she says I have outfits for everyday of the year.
I dont run away from people i do like, maybe sometimes i need my space for a lil because I like to know new things and just be around myself, but i will tell you the way it is, im not a person that will text you all day, but just keep in mind the more you annoy me the more i ignore you. I am pretty sure most aquarius's think and feel like I do, so maybe you just need to let him go & move on and find some 1 else. Not trying to be mean, but I can admit that once an aquariuan tell you that they are in love with you , they mean it and he's a keeper.

Aquas are good for a conversation, but anything more and I'm out the door. Don't talk to me about your problems you aquas I don't need your emotional baggage weighing me down 😛
@Beloved: When I write lengthy threads about other signs, you're right, when I get to the Aqua section I jokingly say, "We're awesome!" and leave it at that. What bothers me is that when I do this, people take this personally; they start engaging in that "selective sight" again where they only see what they want to see. I can't tell you how many threads I've written about Aquarian flaws and/or agreed to what others have said about Aquas in a negative light. But see you conveinantly leave that part out. You only pay attention when I'm joking & when I say "Aquas are awesome" even though none of you like to admit that you saw me write a thread 2 days before on what I think Aquas need to work on.
All I'm saying is that if you're gonna accuse me or anyone of being in denial about Aquarians having flaws, do your research. I've made it very clear that yes, I think we have strengths in some areas & in others, not so much. I have no shame in admitting that I absolutely don't agree with every little negative thing others say about Aquas, BUT I also have no problem/shame in admitting that I can agree with others sometimes too.
Just b/c someone says, "Aquas aren't intellectual" & yet I go back & say "Oh yes they are" doesn't mean that I'm in denial about my sign as a whole!

I don't see any Aquas doing anything that others signs aren't doing.
Other signs defend their signs with certain things & so do I but yet when I do so, "everybody's mad" lol.
Other signs come to this site & talk about how they don't like the false misconceptions/labels placed on their signs. When I do so, people swear I'm in "denial" all b/c I refuse to agree with what all outsiders say.
Other people quickly defend themselves and/or their sign when they feel someone on the outside has it wrong. Welp, I do the same thing. It's not me getting overly defensive or taking it personal. It's me doing what you're doing. Just like you disagreed with certain things I've said, honey I did the same with certain things you've said. It doesn't mean that anyone is in denial or that anyone is trying to rain on anyone's parade.
It's simple. Where I have strong beliefs in certain areas, I stand by those beliefs. Keep in mind, it's kind of hard for a complete stranger whom I've never met and/or who knows the minimum about me, to change certain views that I have. That's why I don't get why people take it so personal when I don't agree with them or when I defend myself on certain things. We're all semi associates on this site but none of us are actually friends and/or know eachother personally.
It's kind of unfair for you or anyone to assume that I'm over-exaggerating when I say that some people have certain issues with Aquas. If I say I know 9 people who feel the same, why argue with that? How would you know? If I say I've been emailed/messages about certain things that I've mentioned I hear others complaining about, it's quite pointless to point the finger & say, "Nuh uh! You're the only 1 with the complaint." The misconceptions about Aquas that I've mentioned on this thread have been misconceptions that I've seen/heard other Aquas mention too. I'm not the only 1. But I speak for myself

I never once accused you of hating me or Aquas. Even had you said you did, I wouldn't have taken it personal b/c 1. You don't know me & 2. I know already that not all Aquas are the same. Trust me, I believe you when you say that you have nothing against Aquas.
I defend my stance for this reason. Although I acknowledge that certain actions illicit certain responses, I can't help but to make sure everyone knows my intentions. It's not fair to say that I shouldn't defend myself. I'm fully aware of "how it looks" when I write 1 sentence about Aquas, BUT if people have it wrong & assume that I'm only doing so b/c I'm in denial or b/c I'm self-centered, that's when I feel obligated to set the record straight. And hey, if after that they still don't believe me, that's fine. If they feel that they still have the right to defend their stance (even if theri opinion is diff. than mine) I won't feel any shame in doing the same.

If we write posts talking about Aquarian flaws, people are all ears.
But if we write posts actually uplifting other fellow Aquas in areas that we feel we're "amazing" in people can't handle it and/or start labeling us "conceited" or full of ourselves!
Aquas are very self-aware. We are fully aware that we have flaws just as much as others, BUT just b/c we don't walk around venting about our own flaws and/or cussing ourselves out 24-7 does NOT mean that we're not aware of our flaws as a a sign!
Sheesh, it's almost like people would feel better if we Aquas continually dumbed ourselves down just to make them feel better.
Kind of like the pretty girl in class who gets called "conceited" all b/c she agrees with her peers that yes, she is pretty. Only those who are insecure are the 1st ones to call her arrogant, vain or conceited all b/c she believes in her OWN beauty and/or doesn't need anyone else to define her beauty. If the pretty girl walks around beating herself up/calling out all her flaws, people will back her into a corner & stress to her to get some confidence & self worth. BUT yet if that very same girl actually admits, "Yep I'm pretty" all of the sudden people have a problem with it & call her conceited---they make her feel bad for actually uplifting herself!
It's ridiculous! I don't think Aquas are conceited or think we're better than anyone! But when we're proud of something, we speak on it with conviction. We don't care whether or not some insecure jerk "can't handle it" or doesn't like it!
