There's this adorable guy at work that I've known for awhile.

I'll be 25 this year and he just turned 29. We me at work a year ago and he was the first person I got to know here. I admit I can be classified as socially inept. I focus on work unless I'm approached but once I am I am very outgoing.

I don't approach as much as one normally would but I can and do 65% of the time it's about work cause I really don't know what to talk about since I'm not approached much.

Despite this me and Aquarius joe as I'll call him developed a great friendship. we all have hung out together before. Though several months ago he just stopped talking to me as much. He only talks to me if he has to usually. There are times 2-3x a week he'll bring me into a conversation he has with others but won't necessarily talk to me he just bring me into it. Sometimes if we are alone he'll randomly bring up something but that hardly happens.

I see him so lively with others and I often wonder is it because I'm so "into work" seeming? Once in spoken to I'm a great conversationalist just not a great initiator.

I adore this man completely and he seemed to be mutually so in the beginning but I don't know now.

I am grateful he brings me into conversations he's in or may join mine at times but never says anything to me just the others in the conversation.

I do approach him at times at least 3x a days which is no where near as often as he approaches others but I find it's mostly work socializing as I don't know what to speak of especially since he stopped talking if a personal nature to me.

Also, I know he doesn't thing I'm weird or thinks ill will of me, cause he's always friendly but I really feel like I'm not good enough for him or something.

Any Aquarius gentleman want to give me any pointers:

1. Why did he stop when we used to gab and chit chat frequently?

2. How do I recreate that old vibe?

He may have sensed that you were liking him more than as a friend. Aquas are very intuitive as to how someone else is feeling, or so I've read.

I think he just wants to keep it as a work friendly relationship and that's it. Otherwise, he would have already asked you out, etc. There's also the aspect that a lot of people don't mix work and romance, so could be he is distancing so you don't get the wrong idea.

Aquas are also very sweet and friendly and will do anything for a friend. This often times gets misinterpretted as romantic interest or flirting when they're just basically treating you the same as anyone else.

I suggest keeping it work friendly.
