Question: Aries and Speaking up about Dislikes?

I have a question for all aries....especially April Aries. When someone says something that you don't like or calls you a nickname that you don't like do you immediately tell them to cut it out or do you just ignore it...

Also are any aries too shy to speak up about things like that?

Not sure what having to be an Aries has to do with your question...but as a human, I will most definately share with someone my likes and dislikes - this to me is, effective communication.

"Also are any aries too shy to speak up about things like that?"

Personally, no...I am not shy to speak up.

*remember though, each person is coming from their own emotional knowledge so results will vary.

Most people are aware of other people's reactions, and then if they care they will adjust themselves .... and I find this to be a quality of Aries .. both forward, and an expectation of it coming back to them, though this transmitting and recieving is held in a different, biased regard.

Explanation of above:

Recieving .... an Aries excepts the other person to be able to recognize that if you say something they don't like, or call them a nickname that they don't like .... that you should have the awareness of them to observe from their physical expressionary reaction that they don't like it and adjust yourself automatically. Example: you call him a pet-name and he cringes < that is his reaction which should signal to you that he doesn't like it. So, to him, he feels like he shouldn't HAVE to tell you, he shouldn't HAVE to confront you about it ..... he feels you should be aware of him, and respond to him, accordingly.

So, it's not really a matter of whether he has the conviction to make a stand for himself .. it's a matter of whether you are aware of his presence.

Transmitting ... he is very much aware of you, all Rams are of their people, and he WILL present things to you, purposely, to see how you will react so he can file ... this pisses her off, this makes her smile, this makes her flinch, when I do this she ignores me.

Also, with Aries, because they are people who actually operate according to feelings (see above) .. they will also, unfortunately, purposely push "bad" buttons to get reactions out of you. However, to have a successful relationship with the Ram, you just have to keep in mind that they are usually like a pressure pot, ready to vent off steam because of their excessive energy ... so, you either just let them rip without taking it personally, or you divert this energy into passionate sex.

So true P-Angel....No I am very aware of him and what he likes and doesn't like. But I also test the limits. I ask because I really do try to keep in tune with those I care about....he kind of just takes charge or runs with what it is he thinks is going on...which usually leaves me the last to know. For example I am just finding out that when he and I dated 4 years ago he considered me his girlfriend and told everyone that.....so on the communication front we kinda miss the mark for some reason.

I'm an April Aries and P-Angel is absolutely right. Especially this part:


Transmitting ... he is very much aware of you, all Rams are of their people, and he WILL present things to you, purposely, to see how you will react so he can file ... this pisses her off, this makes her smile, this makes her flinch, when I do this she ignores me.


Absofuckinglutely. I do this with all my partners and they are amazed at the info I retain. I have a near-eidetic memory so it helps, but I think most Aries are observant that way in general.

I feel like a person should be able to read by my actions what will fly and what is pure bullshit with me. If it continues, I sit them down and tell them. If it continues after THAT, I cut it short. I think many April Aries are more contemplative than March Aries - in my experience. My sister is a March Aries and she will read you for looking at her wrong whereas I'll react my normal way and observe to see if the message has been absorbed.

i'm an april aries and my downfall is that i think that if i know what people want then other people know what i want. if i behave a certain way i think that people get it the same way i get it. if i understand a certain behaviour one way it doesn't mean that the other person reads it the same way or behaved that way. sometimes i'm right and sometimes i'm wrong
