Update. Well that aqua man friend zoned and dumped me today! Tearing my heart apart after 3 months of giving him space, zero drama and zero demands as he tended to his sick mother. I’m probably the most laid back Leo on the planet yeah you heard that right, a Leo who’s not needy!

Love bombed for 2 months, back burner for 3. Literally done with men full stop

Thank you. In true Leo style my pride has been truly dented, my loyalty bruised, and my big heart pierced with a burning iron. Just wish I’d never met him but another harsh lesson learned. My third and final aqua. STEER CLEAR OF AQUARIUS MEN!

I'm sorry AndreaLouise but you'll rise and be okay. Air signs and Leo's don't go well together IMHO outside of friendship. Hopefully you'll get a good looking Aries who will treat you right next time.

How rude! I’m in no way a ‘stupid little Leo’ but appreciate you found the energy to have your say.

No reams of detail required

Aquas are only compatible with Leo when they have Pisces and other fire signs in their personal planets which is enough to render them an immature fantasist and juvenile. I know this Peter Pan Aqua man who is very immature and possibly having a mid life crisis. I’m not surprised one bit that this 58 yr old man just ’married a 24 yr old Leo woman and had a kid with her.🤮

Although for me, I have never gotten along with Leos romantically. They’re in my no-go zone. Friendship wise, it’s great with women! I’ve had a lot of female Leo acquaintances and attract these ladies easily. However, I just don’t see the Aqua/Leo axis working.

Idk. If his mom is sick and as you stated, he was tending to his sick mom. His mom was and is priority.

When you're in that kind of situation, you have to attend to a family member that's sick, you're almost torn between what you want to do and what you have to do amongst other responsibilities that come with that.

Agree. But when the aqua man spends 2 months ‘building our relationship’ (his words) and opens up about an uncaring childhood, and comes to you telling you his mother refuses to acknowledge his help (she had a stroke) and belittles what he’s doing for her (she’s always belittled him) it makes me question why I was so easily dumped when all I heard him say was how controlled he felt by his mother! Work that out x

Means jack to a Leo - a Leo always has to be the centre of the universe.

It’s easy to work out

He feels overwhelmed

He has a complex relationship with his mother who is now ill

He can’t manage any more at the moment

Try and be more empathic....

Sorry you don’t see this but a child and a parents relationship is unconditional. Until you have your own child, you might not be open to seeing this.

And yeah, you are being self centred.

My Leo sister was extremely selfish

She used to pass by our Mum’s bedroom when she was sick on her way to work and not even check to see if she was okay....

Next time don't let someone put you on the back burner for 3months. A break, sure. But being held in limbo is not cool.

He doesn't owe you the pleasure of his company or a relationship. He does owe you transparency and the barest level of human decency to not leave you hanging.

If someone can't give you this most basic of basics, don't wait around.

There’s something to be said about Aqua kids and their mom. They try to do right by their parents no matter what the relationship dynamic is.

My father, Aqua with Pisces moon. He was highly devoted to his mother even though I wouldn’t necessarily consider them to be close (affection wise). He used to routinely send her money and call her as we lived abroad.

Me, Aqua sun and moon. I’m very close to my mom. She means the world to me. I have been by her side since childhood. I haven’t left her side even as an adult. Got her to move in with me.

My bro, Aqua sun with Pisces moon. No matter how physically distanced he is from my mom, he always runs to her at any sight of trouble or worry,

My bestie, Aqua sun with Sag moon. She’s not very close to her mom and is usually annoyed with her, but if her mom is ever in need of help, it’s always bestie who is there for her out of all the kids.

Cousin, Aqua sun with Libra moon. He loves his mom but is annoyed with her half the time. Always there for her when in trouble.
