Hi everyone,

I'm new to this forum hoping to hear what others think about my situation.

I had an amazing first date with a Aquarius guy. It was the best date I've had in years and I felt a connection with him. We started with drinks, walked down the pier and he asked for a second round so we talked for hours. He opened up about his family issues and responsibilities. It just felt easy with him. He asked me out for a second date but we didn’t set a date since he was going on a vacation (out of the country) for 2 plus weeks. He kissed me goodbye and said maybe he will text me while on vacation (which I didn't have high hopes since it was our first date and he was on a vacation). I had sent a text before he left - just said, "have fun on your vacation!" And he texted back right before the plane took off.

It’s been 2 weeks since he’s back but I haven’t heard from him. I know he is very busy with his job (workaholic) and taking care of family matters and etc (maybe I'm making excuses) but I can’t help but wonder if he lost interest in the meantime. I know it was just one date but since we hit it off and he asked me out for a second date I was hoping that we would hang out again. I will continue to do my thing but do you think he lost interest or trying to get back to reality after his vacation? Or did he freak out (he hasn't been in a relationship for years) like my previous Aquarians about feeling something?

I guess I should just move on but I was hoping to at least see him again. I have not contacted him thinking I'll let him do his thing and if he wants to reach out to me he will. Should I reach out to him or just forget about him?

Thanks!!

Email him and remind him who you are (by mentioning the most memorable minute of your date), say something you have done since he has left and ask him how his vacation was.

Call him his tone will give u an indication of where you stand. Phone calls are the best when u not sure.

I am not sure about the calling..... what if he doesnt pick it up? I wouldnt and its not for lack of interest.......... I would say, write him a text first

at the beginning, I would "miss" the call and then write back a text, when I am ready..... but you are right, either he picks it up or write back a text, so maybe calling is not the worst idea🙂

I would totally leave them alone they are liars,manipulators,and will waste your time just to boost there ego. Not strong at all and emotionally weak and insensitive and will string you along until u r 90+

Thank you for all your advice! No, I did not call or text...yet...I go back and forth. I keep thinking if he wants to get a hold of me he has my number and then I change my mind and think what have I got to lose if he doesn't answer my text/call? Ugh. Maybe it's a sign that he isn't a relationship material. I forgot to mention that he hasn't been in a relationship for about 6 years. Perhaps he freaked out even at the idea of starting a relationship.

I gave in and texted him. I regretted the second I hit that 'send' button but I needed to do it for me so I can stop playing the guessing game in my head. If I don't hear from him then I guess it is what it is.

I often say things in the spur of the moment that I mean but forget.

So yeah call him.

You might be waiting a while if you want to wait. I recently just remembered to call someone after a date 3 years ago.

@pandora101 I asked how he's doing and the trip went. He texted back and said he had to go on another work trip after he got back. He said he'll be back the week after next and wants to hang out. We'll see. 🙂
@aquasnoz wow that is a long time ago!

hi I always attract them as well.

what are your placements? I skimmed but didn't see your posting. you may DM me if you don't want it public. I'm just curious. you can see mine in my little description under my photo but I'm
Scorpio Sun/Merc/Venus/Pluto
Virgo Moon/Chiron
Sag Mars/NN
Libra Jupiter/Ascendant
Aquarius Saturn
Capricorn Uranus/Neptune
Leo MC/Aquarius IC

ironically enough I do not have a stellium in Scorpio because my planets are all so far apart.

but I'd say there's no harm in making contact from time to time but if he has gaps you should have them too with no expectations. what I've learned is as soon as you tell yourself "whatever he's not coming back" is when they'll message or call you LOL. happens to me every time... but idk. I choose to live my life while they're on their own level and in their own world. my life of romance is normally quite dissonant anyways. Aquarians sometimes don't even realize how much time has really passed but they still care for you, and they come back like nothing happened because in their mind nothing happened. they were living life, and they expect that you were too. making contact once in awhile isn't a crime, but he should contact you first sometimes too. it's a two way street. good luck 🙂
