1) Are Aqua's known to tell the same stories over and over again? It may not be apparent to the Aquas on this board, but if there are any other signs that know a few aquas, please let me know your thoughts. It just seems that they tend to tell the same stories over again, and forget that they already told you 2 or 3 times before. At first, I thought it was kind of annoying...but now I think it's cute and hysterical!

2) I think I already know the answer to this...but I'm curious if Aqua's normally treat the girls they like (i.e., have a romantic attraction to and/or are in a relationship) different from the ones they don't like. I have an Aqua friend who is always hanging out w/ another girl. He claims that he doesn't like her like that...but they seem to get along so well I'm not quite sure why he wouldn't like her. He seems to be closer to this girl than he was w/ his girlfriends. Is this normal? What's the reason behind this?

3) Are Aquas known to contradict themselves? I once read that the 'bad side' of Aquas is their hypocrisy. Kind of like a "do what I say and not as I do" kind of thing. Would you agree?

danke!

"1) Are Aqua's known to tell the same stories over and over again?"

My leo bff does this ALL the time and my Libra bff does it ALL the time.
I sometimes repeat myself just to make the point of the story/drive it home, etc. But generally I don;t repeat myself and if I do I tell as if I know I told you before but the situation was just THAT unbelievable. I have a good memory so no I don't stories like rainn man, but I kinda get annoyed at those that I know that do. I start cutting them off and telling the story after a while and they get the point from there.


"2) I think I already know the answer to this...but I'm curious if Aqua's normally treat the girls they like (i.e., have a romantic attraction to and/or are in a relationship) different from the ones they don't like."

My theory with this is....there are just less expectations, less room for era placed in a simple friendship as oppose to a relationship. The burden of having to live up to expectations and please another human being because of a label (i.e. boy/girl friend) is daunting and confusing to someone like an independent aqua. So our level of comfort in a friendship is THAT much higher as oppose to in the beginning of a relationship. The best thing to combat this is being friends first with an aqua, so our level of comfort and need to pace ourselves is well recepted. You'll have the best of both worlds then. It also makes for a better longer lasting relationship. We are pretty loyal people when we commit so the tactic of friends first is key.



"3) Are Aquas known to contradict themselves? I once read that the 'bad side' of Aquas is their hypocrisy. Kind of like a "do what I say and not as I do" kind of thing. Would you agree?"

Well maybe it is. I tend to sometimes act in a way in which I would hate for someone to do to me. I can be demanding, but hate people to do the same to me. Dont we all?? But give a specific example so I can better assess and explain it.

Hey Lady M,

thanks for your reply!

With regards to #1: I've noticed that my leo friends do it ALL the time too! weird :-/ But I have 3 really good aqua friends, and they do tell the same stories either to me, or when we're in a group. and w/ my one aqua friend...it kind of does remind me of rain man...that's why i think it's hysterical!

#2: I figured that would be the answer, and it does make more sense. I do agree that there should be a base friendship first b/4 entering into a relationship. I want that same comfort w/ someone, as it makes the transition much easier (but the risk is then greater because if all does not go well...u may end up losing a friend). It's interesting that you brought up expectations once a label is assigned to a relationship (gfriend/bfriend etc). I have that same fear...but not because of what would be expected of me. Mainly because of what I would start to expect. I dunno...i guess I really wouldn't expect much, however, if me and my potential were already friends.

but it is interesting still...because Leo and Aquas really are the same when it comes to our expectations. The differences though? I feel like Aquas expect you to know that they're loyal even if they don't necessarily show you...whereas Leos will show you, which really isn't necessary to the Aqua because he/she already knows...does that make sense? hahaha...I think i'm rambling. but this leads me to #3.

you hit the nail square on the head in your comment that you would hate for others to do to you what you, yourself, have been guilty of doing. I guess an example would be: say you and I are really good friends. we hang out regularly. then, all of a sudden you dissappeared (for whatever reason). It's ok...i'm used to it and it happens. But say I was the one who dissappeared (the same way you did)...it would bother you, yes? or...you and I are friends, but you find another friend that offers new interests and stimulation. Off you go! But if I were to do that to you...you may feel some type of way about it...yes? I dunno...but this is what i mean by the whole "do as I say and not as I do"

Anywho...thanks for responding :-)

1. Understand that I'm going to disagree with you, BUT not b/c I'm being stubborn or in denial about how Aquas really are, BUT instead moreso b/c you can't expect everyone to share the exact same personal experience with every Aquarius. Sure, there is some truth to all of your questions, in regards to Aquas, no different than there are ALOT of people (of ALL signs) who: 1. Repeat themselves & 2. Are more worthy/better as "Friends" moreso than they are as companions/commited.

In MY experience as not only being an Aqua, but also being around many different Aquas, it is true that some of us do tend to have the habit of repeating ourselves. BUT it just depends on the topic we're discussing. If we're ranting & raving about something we're extremely proud of for example, I wouldn't consider that an "Aqua" thing; After all, alot of people tend to tell as many people as possible when they're proud of OR really disgusted by something. Also, some Aquas may appear to keep retelling the same old story 1 million times, but if you pay attention, you'll notice that there is always a new detail added into the story each time. This could be b/c an Aqua might not've been as comfortable sharing "everything" with you before they trusted you, thus once they actually trust you, they don't see the big problem in finally "completing" the story, even if that means repeating it 2 or 3 more times. Plus, some Aquas are known to repeat stories to the same person if their particular story's purpose is to prove/stress a point to someone else. For example, I always use/share my "1st love" experience as a means to help others to see my point or understand me more, persay I'm listening to a friend vent about her 1st love horror stories. To me, I'm using my own experiences & outcomes to prove a point, BUT to others, they may simply just see this as me repeating myself continually. It's all about perspective. Trust me, Aquas have good memory. We're very aware of what we have/haven't told others. If an Aqua is repeating the same story, there's a reason behind it, whether others care to find out/understand why or not

And on the relationship/friendship tip..It has been told that Aquas are better off as "friends" with others moreso than they are in relationships or as boyfriend/girlfriends. Aquas value friendship so much more b/c of the sincerity it brings. And I say that b/c most of us can be our natural & true selves the most when we are just friends with someone. When we are just friends with someone, we are much more forgiving & understanding of others. When we're just friends with someone, we won't necessarily hold them to the same standards that we would with someone we were actually in a relationship with. Thus, this is why it's very common for alot of Aquas to be extremely close to the very people that others probably would've walked past/overlooked. Just being friends makes is to that all the fear of commitment, being hurt/betrayed is not as present, the way it would be persay we were actually commited. And b/c of this, an Aqua's "friend" has a better chance of seeing/knowing the REAL Aqua moreso than an Aqua's companion might. It may not make sense to the other person, BUT to an Aqua..the less fear/challenges they face/have to overcome, the more comfortable & easy-going they are.

Alot of people see Aquas & the way they pick their friends, & scrunch their faces up in confusion & amazement. It's like others don't understand "why" we'd be friends (and so close) with certain people, but yet not have nearly the same amount of love/respect for the very same person persay they were actually in a relationship with them. And once again, I see this as being a "people" thing moreso than an Aqua things. It's no diff. than how women will relate more to other women & vice versa with men. It's not that men & women can't get along. But it's moreso that women can be more their natural/true selves to other women, the same way that men can be more of themselves (without having to hide their true colors or constantly be trying to impress other men) when around other men. The way that an Aqua can be more comfortable, accepting & open with someone who is just their "friend" is no different than a man not hiding that he's a douchebag around his male friends like he otherwise would around any women he's actually trying to talk to. The standards that Aquas hold to others friendship-wise are completely DIFFERENT than the ones we'd hold to those we actually see as relationship-potential. That's why Aquas can be just "friends" with all the drama-queens, yet so cutthroat with others

My Aqua BFF used to do that whole dissapearing act all the time! Im a scorp. It used to really piss me off because she would call me out the blue and be so excited and invite me out tell m eto get dressed and to call her at aspecific time... and then I would just get voicemail and no texts for about 5 days. At first I used to bitch to my boyfriend about it... hes was an aquarius too. But after a while.. it just hurt my feelings... so I started to do the same thing to her. It made me laugh ...and I felt better staring at my phone as I got 10 texts.

I wish she would bring that up to me.... cause I only mirror bad things that ppl do to me first.

LOL this funny.

1. Im an aqua girl and yes I seem to tell stories over and over to DIFFERENT people. If I tell you more than once it's because im passionate about it and I KNOW I already told you this before. I don't ever forget... unless maybe it's years later. I've met other aquas like that but they don't forget they just want to re tell the story or they tell it to other people.

2. I dk im a girl and when I like someone I do when I don't I don't.

3.I wouldn't say I contradict myself its more I change my mind. Sometimes right off the bat i'll be sure about something and than a few days after thought I change my mind. I would say its a bad trait only cause its gotten me in trouble in the past lol. It confuses people especially men. But for me it's not something that happens daily. Most the time I do my research before I speak.
