At the moment I am showering her in thoughtful gifts.
Getting her to come out on fun little adventures is proving tricky (I'm an Aqua)
Any bright ideas?

Be a great friend.
When you have a conversation, show how mature you are and project a serious but not boring personality.
Invite her quite frequently to have *coffee etc. (her fave drink that u know)
Be a good conversationalist.
MAKE HER LAUGH!

those are few of the things that my Aqua did and still doing. My aqua told me that I'm elusive lol!
Oh and please ground yourself a lil bit... 🙂

@LostinmyMind11 - I tell her I have one to give to her over SMS and she's all excited. The reactions when I then give her the gift are interesting.
The first one she kind of ignored. She didn't know how to react to it. She left it outside when we came in the house. I got a thank you, the second time as I was leaving. I'm trying to arrange http://www.redletterdays.co.uk/Experience/Ref/SPIHT/Secret-Agent-Training-For-Two for us. She told me it's too generous but slowly I'm wearing her down.

@unlimitedinfiniti - They're hard work, you have to keep at it or they'll disappear of you 🙂

@virgosagscorpio - Thank you I'll try. She likes cocktails. A good cocktail bar will make an interesting trip. I am grounded (practical) in my own special way. But I am a typical Aqua, loads of ideas and love flittering from one thing to another

The status is - "it's complicated" 😉
Ok, we dated for about two years from 17-19, this ended when we both went travelling for 3 months in Thailand. (This was my dream and I dragged her along). I then decided I needed to keep travelling. I broke up with her and put her on a plane home. I ended up coming home a year and a half later.

Skip forward 10 years. We had contact, see each other once a year. She actually rang me when she broke up with her last boy friend. A month ago I just placed myself in her life sms, calls, inviting her out, gifts, etc.

I haven't managed to get a kiss out of her yet, tried twice. Bloody Virgins on the outside, bloody teases 😉

Thanks for the ideas I'll see what I can do with them. Trying to pin her down to a date for activities is proving very tricky, it's always maybe, or only if I manage to get this little job done.

She said something to me last night. She said, she was playing the character that her last boyfriend gave her. Is this a Virgo trait, is this something you can identify with?

@yellowsweater - She's closed off anyway. Yes I caused her pain and abandon her, I know this and need to make that right, although I don't regret the decision. I got the words and communication, we click very easy, both intelligent ppl, both have a very similar view of the world, but come at it from two totally opposite angles. Can you expanded a little on the "mercury rules virgo" comment please.

@unlimitedinfiniti - I think she's the same, but she's gonna get them anyway.

@Gemi2licious - I think I understand the last bf thing. On an intellectual level at least, but I want a beautiful Virgo female to explain it to me. (Beautiful bike by the way)

@unlimitedinfiniti - It's a fair enough plan. It comes down to self acceptance. If you are with a similar sign then understanding the other person is a lot easier. If I'm with another Aqua then the amount of chaos we cause is incredible.
Personally I prefer to date someone who is the opposite of me. Why I like my Virgo, I'm a complex soul and she is so beautifully simple. A lot of truth in opposites attract.

@yellowsweater - "Virgos are "beautifully simple"" - I was tailoring the comment to my audience, the comment wasn't aimed at you. I do stand by it, it is true, in an odd sort of way. But what you say is correct, you do find beauty in simplicity, it what I love about Virgos.

I find beauty in complexity, do you know anything about Chaos Theory or the Mandelbrot Set. This is a very simple mathematical equation, that when repeated produces beautiful (I use the word too much) patterns. The interesting thing about these patterns, is that if you zoom "in or out" the same pattern is repeated. This can be seen all over nature e.g. leafs or coast lines.

Anyway my point was opposites attract and I love the way she can find beauty in simplicity. Thank you for your story, I will work on my story telling skills. I'm OK at it in one to one situations, but I will work on it. Problem is that, I think of things in what others consider complex ways, so I struggle to find the words sometimes.

In a previous post I said:
"She said something to me last night. She said, she was playing the character that her last boyfriend gave her. Is this a Virgo trait, is this something you can identify with?"

Any views? Can you relate?

"I am playing the characters that my last boyfriend gave me", You have to tell us what you were talking about right before she said that. What was the context and what else did she say? Almost sounds like she is not over what the ex did to her and sucks for you that you have to pay the price. After all, you left her and you weren't around to protect her from the other heartbreakers that came along. Do you know the hell she's been through since you left? Do you care? Do you care about all the times her heart hurt or broke since you "put her" on a plane? You also sound a little egotistical, as if you've got this in the bag.
No offense and maybe it's the way you're coming off, but you can't buy a Virgo. You need substance. I dated an aqua and he would close up and act silly when I wanted him to open up and be serious. He acted like he was supreme and I just needed to realize that. Stick it where the fish don't swim... This is not all about you.
Also, you dumped her. If you don't get her to vent out all of her feelings about what you put her through and how much hurt she felt, you don't have a chance in hell. She deserves to be heard. Not to be bought. Stop buying gifts and planning trips and get serious about finding out what you really did to her back then. I had two exes who came back years later after they broke my heart. I secretly despised them for what they did, but one of them I actually allowed to suck me back in. I hated myself for it. The other one acted so groveling and desperate that I was repulsed by him. This may go beyond what you can even see. If she is still angry with you, your gifts will get her more aggravated deep down, because bottom line is you left her when she loved you. And you really don't deserve her back.

Sorry, call me what you will but I AM a Virgo and you shouldn't discount that this is what she could be thinking.

@VirgAnne - I don't wish to give you the context of the comment. I will pollute your answer with my interpretation of events. It appears to me, that this is not a Virgo trait or someone would have chimed in by now.

Wow, I appreciate your honesty, but as you implied in your last line, I think this is you putting your bad experiences onto my relationship. Aquas are complex and we can go completely bat crazy, there is a larger proportion of Aquas in mental asylums than any other signs. I'm sorry you got burned, I know we can be very convincing.

The gifts have been silly things, I'm not trying to buy her (you misread that). I brought her some bubble wrap, as an example. She's asked me to stop with the gifts, which I've agreed to. The amusing thing is, I can see she still wants them. It's her birthday at the end of the month, I've been told I'm allowed to get her a present for that.

I think your right on some level, deep down there is still that pain I caused her. She's still cautious round me, but Virgo's are cautious creatures anyway. I told her I was sorry for what I had done. She didn't want to discuss it further, I'll bring it up later, when I've built more trust.

It's still going really well, texting constantly, we see each other once a week. She's agreed to go on the Spy Training Day with me in September.

@VirgoHero - Thanks for that, I hadn't thought of that one.
