Posted by HappyCapperNvm. I agree with the others that it would be a good idea to talk to him in person. The frequency of contact should, imo, be up to what suits each and every couple.Posted by nsm625Sorry, you said you had written about the aqua before, so I was trying to find out of you're the person I thought you were.

If you are the person I suspected you were at first, because the question is pretty much the same and the way the posts are written are pretty much the same, I suggest you start making your own decisions. You are allowed to make mistakes - it's okay. And communicate your fears with your partner if it feels right.click to expand

It's better to talk to them face to face then on text. For anyone in general, but Aquas in general want to see the person they met online in the real. It is more connecting to sit by someone you're interested in and chat about this and that. Texting, social media can only go so far.

Stop over thinking. If you really want to communicate with him then call, leave a voice mail or a text telling him how much you miss him (because you clearly do). Be clear about your feelings, but you don't have to be overbearing to get a point across.
Don't be what you think you should be. Be who you are. If you fuss over texting/calling then maybe you should contact him first. To ease yourself.
Do you have hobbies? Friends/family?

U got me I'm always over thinking & analyzing shi*t lol..Im getting a little better then I have been. I don't have a problem contacting but I don't want to kill the attraction by texting him & being mushy because I heard Aquarius guys don't like that. Yes I have hobbies & a very busy business I run but have limited circle of friends & family. After all day being busy now this is my down time & I tend to think about many things lol.
Don't worry about what others think of Aquarius. Worry about what you KNOW about YOUR Aquarius. He doesn't seem like the kind of person who'll dislike all the lovey-dovey talk. In fact he sounds like the opposite of that. But at the end of the day only you know what your guy likes/dislikes and that's what you have to go on.click to expand
Posted by cheekyfaerieAgreed.
Agree with the others that nothing beats physical contact. Being able to look one another in the eye is huge. It's also not always practical when you live almost an hour away.
The texting thing? If you have something to say, say it. If you wanna send a short good night next, do it. What you're currently asking may seem innocent, but (imo) it's a bit of a game really. How often should I this or that is a power thing. If you're trying to build something serious, it's best not to start down that road.
As for FB, unless you're using it to message one another, it's best to pretend it's not there. Social media can be a relationship killer when you start letting it feed your insecurities.

Just ask him & always be yourself

Posted by HappyCapper
May I ask, if you could dictate how often the two of you would text and he would be fine with it, how often would that be? What are your limits? How often would be too often and how seldom would be too seldom? When you have figured that out, you'll know what you can accept or not and how flexible you can be and then listen in to his actions. That was your first question in OP.
He may have lost interest - he may not have. Maybe he has had a lot to do at work. No one knows but him. I would probably contact him like tomorrow afternoon or so, just to ask if he's okay. And when/if you are in contact again, I would strongly suggest meeting him in person.

Posted by Aquistorm
As much as you wish, but don't spam him up. If he is not on. Message one or two on facebook. Don't post anymore until he responds back.

Posted by ramengirlPosted by nsm625No problem, love. Making plans is a great idea. Don't bother with how you may look. Be confident in your actions and remember that your intentions are out of love and sincerity. ‰ Let him know how much being together means to you.Posted by ramengirlPosted by nsm625Glad to hear that! € You're going to be just fine.Posted by ramengirl

Thank you :-). I'am learning some things about him & right now its hit & miss & trial & error until I get to know him much more :-). So its ok If I suggest dates to get together & let him figure out a work around without looking like a low value girl or killing attraction?click to expand

Great to hear! 🙂
Just don't OVER-analyse it. Just figure out what you want - you are 50% in this relationship.
Good luck! 🙂

@nsm625
Your questions aren't lame nor stupid. They're very relatable. Š And you have a good head on your shoulders. You don't portray yourself as a victim and you're self-aware.

Posted by nsm625I'm just that way. I have an old school mentality about gender roles. My daddy always said "girls don't call boys" and he had his list of reasons that made complete sense. If you stop doing the majority of the planning, then he'll have to. Plus, you'll have a better sense of how much time he really wants to spend with you. You can get a better measurement of how into you he is. And you'll feel like he really wants to spend time with you and that's a much better feeling than wondering if you're doing too much.Posted by truecap

That's about how much I been doing also. What do you recommend on this?..He is a full time dad & his job is very demanding also so I asked why don't he plan for us to get together at times & he told me because of how he job is up & down right now & with his son it makes it harder for him to plan ahead but he said when I plan a day or time that he can work around that to make that date happen versus him doing it & he has always kept the plans when I have planned a time for us to get together. But question do you think this is bs & that maybe I should step back & make him start making the plans for us to get together? I like your fierceness lolclick to expand

I don't think his reasoning is BS necessarily, but I do think it's lazy on his part. If he has no problems making it happen when you plan a date, then he should have no problem making it happen when he plans a date. Just lazy.
However, if he wants you to do the planning, then there isn't really a problem with it. He has expressed that he wants you to, so it's not like he feels like you're chasing him.click to expand

Posted by nsm625Well, you are in a relationship. That gives you more leeway in the fact that it shouldn't matter who contacts first, who makes the plan, etc As long as you both seem comfortable with it, it's not a problem. he has said he likes it that you do it. So, really don't worry. Keep doing what you're doing. If you change, don't do it abruptly.Posted by truecapPosted by nsm625I'm just that way. I have an old school mentality about gender roles.

Yes that was my point I guess I was trying to get across & I totally agree with if he really wants to see me he will make it happen like he tried before & it is a way of being lazy. I will start falling back just a bit and making him step up to the plate :-). Thank you againclick to expand

Also I texted him yesterday some cute upbeat text & he responded quickly but then I got called away for a bit & didn't respond back to him until 15 mins later & then he didn't respond back to me until 1 hour later but explained he was very busy at work with trying to get things done in a certain time frame so I texted back I understand & told him don't work to hard but he didn't reply back & that was yesterday around 4:30pm & here it is today & he has not texted me back anything but yet he has time to like post on facebook. Do you think he is upset with me about something or backing off? Should I just leave him alone & let him text me first or do I still send him a happy text & say hope all if well or what? Im so confused on this texting & contact /new dating stuff. I don't want to text to much or text to little. Please help what should I do?
