Morning all! Just wanted to see what you gems are all about. Went on a date with one. Had fun. He seems responsible, but child-like at the same time.

Anyone care to share a very general perspective of this sign?

Expect the unexpected 🙂?

Seriously, mine's got a child-like curiosity about lots of things. He also thinks himself as younger-looking and super-fit. I thought this was due to his Aries moon and mars, since Aries is the child of the zodiac. I agree with being fit, not sure about younger-looking. Someone asked him if I were his daughter, oops!

He seems to be a good, responsible father to both his pre-teenage sons from a previous marriage to a Leo. He is probably the most intelligent man I ever dated. He appears serious and bossy (cap rising), but this makes his fun-loving core even more of a surprise!

I am very child-like (when I'm with someone that I'm happy with, makes me feel secure, and that I feel comfortable with). I feed off my partner. they can bring out my good, but also bring out my bad when things go wrong. Honesty always with him because a Gemini will over-analyze and overthink everything. don't play games just be honest with your feelings. it takes a lot to catch a gem interest and even harder to pin one down. so if you have one that is interested, do all you can to ensure him that your serious and playful all at the same time. Gemini have to hear certain words, "actions speak louder" than words is a no-no. I have to hear it. some love with their heart, gem love with their mind. communicate communicate communicate. you can bring him to life and make him so happy, but it has to be something you really want. not just a good time.

Maybe I should also mention he's got five different hobbies and pursues all of them on a weekly basis 🙂!

Recently he put his name on a waiting list for yet another hobby! Hopefully he gives up some of his old ones.

It truly depends on his other placements that could affect how he acts, but I have to say the "child-like persona" and the seriousness all at the same time is pretty dead on. Also, from my experience, they can change their view on things rather quickly. Not that it's all bad, but it usually comes unexpected bc they tend to be very adamant about their first opinion (damn mutables 😛)

Well, I don't know a ton about him because we are still getting to know each other. one area of concern could be, what I view, as needing a lot of attention. Maybe I am used to being by myself or dealing with Virgos, but he mentioned that he likes a little more attention. A lot of girls for friends.

I'm not a Gem guy, but I nearly married one. We had some things in common:
-I want what I want WHEN I want it, and I don't want what I don't want WHEN I don't want it. If I want affection, I want if NOW, and if you don't give it you're "cold" or "don't care about me." If I don't want affection and you do, then you're "clingy."

-I jump on bandwagons and expect you to jump on, too. I also expect you to change when I jump off of that bandwagon and onto another one.

-I go off on hairbrained adventures and need you to be up for joining me instead of being parental and reminding me that something won't work, is out of our budget, or what-have-you.

-I need trust and freedom and will give you the same if you show me that our relationship is secure.

Thanks Lust. I am just taking it all in for now...seeing if there is follow through. Too early to tell if anything will even happen. In regards to actions, he texts me practically non stop. Asks a lot of questions and tells me what he is up to...not used to that. He keeps bringing up when we will hang out next t. We have opposite work schedules.

Do you male Gems trend to be more feminine?

Really, water signs are more feminine?

I am not sure which, I will have to figure that out. At first I thought he could be bisexual/ gay. Maybe he is just more "metro". I don't normally date that type of man. Lol I can appreciate taking care of themselves and their appearance, but not if they take longer to look better than me.

Can only speak for myself. Love excitement, laughing and joking around, learning, meeting people, solving puzzles, riddles, anything that's a challenge. A little bit of a fragile ego. Always into bettering myself. But I'm restless and have a hard time figuring out what to do next, and when I'm doing something, I wonder if something else would be more fun or more worth my time. I love being around people who are strong in areas where I struggle so I can learn from them. I value loyalty and honesty more than almost anything. If you prove yourself to me and I can trust you, I am a loyal friend. If someone lies, betrays me, treats me poorly, I'll never trust them. But I'll be civil because they're not gonna drag me down to their level. I like a woman who's mysterious and challenging. And if I start falling for her, I need attention here and there so I know she's feeling what I'm feeling or I get moody and withdrawn.

Expect lots and lots of talking! Expect them to have many friends, including female friends. Expect him to have more than one project/hobby going on at once. Expect him to flake out on occasion. If a gemini man really digs you, he'll be blowing up your phone and wanting to spend a lot of time with you. Geminis are very social and lots of fun.

Oh my! My ex was like that. Very fun, very thoughtful, very demanding on I want whatever NOW, very humourous, changed his mind on what he wanted to do constantly, very informative.

Those can be positive OR negative traits, depending on the other person and their preferences. I can see why he felt deflated with a capricorn wife (the planner, the consistent one, the cold one, the parental one).

Wear a padded jacket to shield you from the knife he will eventually stick in your back.

And watch how he handles his money. I know a lot of Gems who are financially irresponsible. Hopefully you found one who is good in this area.

Ah well, I'm a cap, what can I say? lol!
