True point Este. I guess I am using a generalization for Gems.

What about a situation where Gem says that he thinks I need someone more together than him and that he needs to figure things out. Says he still really likes me and interested in dating me. (Kind of contradictory)

I told him that I liked him too, but that he needs to do whatever he thinks will be best for him. Told him I wasn't in a rush, and maybe we could just be friends. He said he didn't want to be just friends.

He asked to hang out, I told him I couldn't, but offered up another day to hang out. He never responded. Not really a big deal, just wondering if that is "typical Gem" behavior.

Not "typical Gem" behaviour (my bf is a Gem too), but typical dating behaviour. We like many people, but we decide to seriously date one.

He was testing the waters to see if you are interested in him. May have got distracted by someone else, who was "in a rush" to date him. If that doesn't work, he'll come back to you. You kind of hinted that you'll wait for him.

OP, he was just figuring out if it's worth it to add you to the list of possibilities. Your relationship may eventually go somewhere or it may not, but you have to start by getting added to the list of women who are in the running to possibly become "The One". Personally, I would be offended and walk away; this isn't an episode of "The Bachelor".

I say what I mean to a certain extent. If there's a touchy situation in which I can't say what I really feel, I'll just go silent...or deflect...rather than misrepresent my ideals. So, if you're paying attention, you will know I disagree with you if you find that I've led you away from your original topic.

I would like to meet a fixed Gemini..I haven't yet. Your special..

I had a Gemini tell me marry me. Then i said what..he said never mind.. damn just that fast you spit words and then the fickle shit starts. They say one thing which is the truth 95 percent. The other 5 percent is indecisive..and..Gemini have two sides always.

The one twin is sweet, sensitive, loving, and wants a loyal honest person. The other twin is the don't hold me down til I say so. Don't like to hear sweet nothing. And want a spontaneous free spirited person, with mental energy, intelligence, and experiment of any kind...

So are they honest yeah for the majority of the time..they will tell you if you should be just friends or something else but you got to wait. They're always busy and they can forget you. Then the rebound as if nothing happened.

i laughed at your response to his proposal, 'what!'...I had the image of the commercial Cadbury Easter Bunny auditions when the lion roar "what"...lol..but seriously I feel you didn't relax in his company..trust me if I'm indecisive!..it's because I don't feel comfortable in that space with you to be open whether it be a subject were talking about or something you want me to do..Whimsy was spot on with that..

How does that work? How do you like many people but seriously date one? Or feelings stronger for the one that you seriously date?

I have a gemini friend that is in a serious relationship(living with her bf), but is messing around with other men. I also have a scorp friend who is married and is messing around with other men. I just don't get it.

Or are they the type to say one thing and really mean another?

can't speak for all gems, but as for me, i say what i mean and mean what i say.

This 100% . I will tread lightly at first when entering the conversation but then I will spell it out in black and white and sometimes it isn't what the person wants to hear.
