An "I'm not interested" thing...

I met this Aquarius guy about a month ago and we have sporadically been keeping in touch. He doesn't text me everyday, (not even to see how my day is going). And I feel like I'm making all the plans for us and he's just along for the ride.

When I was with him last week though, he said that he did want to be romantic with me, and that he was okay with going at a slower pace. He wanted me to stay at his place a little longer than I was going to. And when I left he said I'll seen you seen, but has not really talked to me since (I've been doing most of the instigating).

What do you think is going on?

It's an Aquarius thing. You might get a lot of communication, but sporadically. Just go with the flow and enjoy your time together. If you find yourself getting repeatedly upset over his lack of attentiveness, you can talk to him about it, but it likely won't change much. My SO has called me at work maybe 10 times in almost 30 years, and it's usually because we have ants in the garage, or we got a scam call from the IRS (which he thought was legit), or he wants me to pick up something from the store on the way home.

I have NEVER gotten a "just to say hi" call. It's just not his thing.

Aquarius is too busy doing/thinking about other things to ne constantly checking in, even if they really like you. If he said he wants to get romantic slowly, then that's a big leap. Think of a highly inttelligent, curius person with ADD. This is at the core of at least my Aqua man. And yes, he was diagnosed woth ADHD as a child and has never been mediated for it.

He will go into hyperfocus on a project for hours and completely forget his other commitments; oned that he himself made. I remember early into our seeing each other...I would call wanting to talk and he would say he was busy and would call me back in "a few minutes" . Often he wouldn't ever call back. It was infuriating and I also assumed it was because he wasn't interested. Nope, he just got so busy and lost in whatever he was doing (even hanging out with other friends) that he completely forgot he was supposed to call.

It never really changed; I just got used to it to the point that it doesn't bother me anymore.

It perplexes us Aquas that one could reach for something as industrial as a telephone when afflicted by a sudden debilitating case of...feelings.

When these sort of symptoms present themselves unexpectedly, we need to be in very close proximity to the cause of the symptoms.
if they are to be treated effectively.

If not, we do what any right-thinking Aqua does, and channel those wistful thoughts into whatever day-to-day task we are doing at that moment; such as abseiling down the front of a tall tokyo building unfurling a banner proclaiming our opposition to dolphin hunting, debating the secretary general of the UN, ringing the nasdaq bell, or synthesising a new strain of malaria vaccine.

And, as these waves of thoughtfulness swirl around our sensory cortex and crash onto the shores of our frontal lobe , these everyday tasks are elevated in meaning, importance, and impact.

Later, as we try to tell you about our day, you'll see the silt, glinting in our eyes.
Thats for you.

Because you were there, with us, the whole time.


Try that on AT&T...lol

You need to STOP instigating, planning and arranging time to see each other. It's okay occasionally, but the man should be doing all the work.

It might be an aquarius thing (some of the men can get lazy) but you've got to make them do the work. You've got to let them miss you and next thing you know they'll be making more plans and initiating time to see each other.

I know stepping back seems like then you won't get to see them at all, However, how is a man supposed to fall for you if he doesn't invest in you?

So, by doing all the planning, you're investing in him and he's not doing anything to invest in you. Men only fall for the girls they have an investment in. Therefore, by making him initiate meetings and plans, he's putting out effort which equates to investment.

And, if he doesn't step up, then he isn't that into you. You can only determine how "into" you a man is by the amount effort he puts out.

Don't make it a game. Just don't mention, make or initiate plans. As long as he has a green light, and knows you're receptive and friendly and fun, he should eventually begin to plan things.

Get an Encyclopedia Britannica get as much information as you can and bombard him with intellectual chit chats then I can guarantee you he 'll be visiting you on his break from work just for a quickie and rejuvenate his mind. Saying from my personal experience. As long as you keep his mind stimulated then eventually he'll be calling you from his work saying he is missing you all the time.

Have to agree with what everyone else is saying here.
In my experience with aqua men, you need to hold back a bit and let them do some chasing. They tend to not respond well with being bombarded with msg's/calls all the time.

I was casually seeing one for over a year and once went about 5-6wks without a word from him. Then he was all about wanting to see me.

Take it slow like he said and get yourself a hobby in the mean time. Otherwise you'll go mad analysing this rather normal aqua behaviour.
