Can you please do us a favor? Please avoid some of the shorthand / slang. It gets in the way of what you are trying to say and makes it harder for us to read.

I am 33. Which for a Sag doesn't mean much except I have had more time to be goofy as heck. LOL.. but seriously, we are kind of immature in our younger years.

Here is the information about Sag dudes:

The Sagittarius man
This elusive and fascinating creature can often be spotted by his tendency to gesticulate wildly and tell very funny stories. One of the nicest things about the Sagittarius man is his sense of dramatic irony. He'll often do his travelling and his wandering on a mental rather than a physical level. This is the philosopher of the zodiac, absorbing all forms of knowledge like tasty meals. But the Sagittarius man isn't really an intellectual in the academic sense. He's far too intuitive, and more interested in spotting connections than in dissecting information. And his thinking is speculative rather than pedantic, whether it's focused on philosophy, literature, the arts or the stock market. The life of the mind is much more important to him than what he eats for dinner. In fact, he'll often forget to eat.

The Sagittarius man often attracts a partner who sees this endearing absent-mindedness and sets about trying to take care of him. What he doesn't need, repeat, doesn't need, is to be taken care of. Of course he'll tell you he does. He'd live in a pigsty without you, and his clothes would be rumpled and his bills not paid on time. But if you do these things for him, he'll grow to resent it. If you've been lured into the caretaker role, stop playing it at once.

You can't parent him until he grows up. His definition of growing up is different from yours. Most people believe maturity is about taking responsibility in the tangible world. For Sagittarians, maturity is seeing, realising, understanding.

Not that you're to blame for trying. The Centaur is an exciting and dynamic man, whether intellectually or in action, and his fleetness of foot and untamed vision make him terribly appealing, especially to partners who long for a little excitement and inspiration in their lives.

There's no doubt that Sagittarius' adventurous soul is guaranteed not to bore you (unless he's going on about his current philosophical, spiritual or political hobby-horse). But if you can create some adventure and excitement in your own life, you'll enjoy him and his vision much more. Also, you're demonstrating that you're a travelling companion who can have adventures yourself, and not someone who's joined to him at the hip. One of Sagittarius' basic approaches to life is to laugh at it. The world is, after all, a rather silly place. But you have to have a sense of humour yourself, or otherwise you won't understand what he's laughing at, especially when he laughs at you. The Sagittarius man can be a terrible tease, and he's not averse to taking a sly poke at anyone who's too serious or pompous. He doesn't like hypocrisy, and he can be hair-raisingly blunt when it comes to telling you what he thinks of you. He's big-hearted and kind, but not blessed with an overabundance of tact.

Fortunately, this sometimes hurtful side of his nature is balanced by the fact that he can laugh at himself too. His biggest problem in relationship is crossing that dreadful bridge between romantic fantasy and earth-plane reality. For many Centaurs, it's just too big a chasm, and they never succeed in getting to the other side. They often leave a trail of broken love affairs behind them and are still pursuing the dream even when they're clearly long past being able to fully live it. Most Sagittarian men, however, do make peace with earth-plane reality sooner or later, albeit reluctantly.

Beneath the apparently ironic or skittish approach some Sagittarian men display toward commitment, you'll often find a frightened child who's afraid his romantic ideals will be smashed. Don't mistake that "See you some time" approach for a cold heart. The Sagittarian man has a heart of gold, when he's really in love. It's just that his dreams bruise easily. Eventually he learns to humanise his expectations of life and love, and trust and friendship are the guideposts that can help him on his way. He can offer those in abundance himself, and he deserves them in exchange.

Overall Sag Info:

Sun in Sagittarius: You're friendly, outgoing, optimistic, energetic, extroverted, honest, straightforward, just and generous. You love sports and gambling and are willing to take a chance on just about anything. Independence and freedom are a must or you feel claustrophobic both physically and emotionally. If your partner in any relationship is jealous or over-possessive, it'll drive you away. You're apt to be quite superficial, careless, unconventional and over-pleased with the sense of excitement in your youth. In the middle of your life, you begin to look for your spiritual self and philosophies you can agree with. You want to live "in the future" and don't care about tradition or the past. You love to travel to new horizons mentally, physically, spiritually and emotionally. You explore subjects unknown to you, especially languages, and store the knowledge for later use. You have formidable intellectual potential once your mind is trained and disciplined. You're best at dealing with old problems along new lines. The challenge grips you more than the problem or the solution. You achieve your goals through positive thinking. Even if you're uneducated, you are at home with abstract ideas, principles and beliefs. You're a serious thinker, but often jump to conclusions before all the facts are known. You understand civilization is a manifestation of man's thinking and motivation. You're innate understanding of people makes you a good counselor, minister, etc., but tact is a needed virtue since you have unerring ability to hit the other's weak spot with verbal arrows. You're concerned with your own and society's well-being, but usually follow society's standards-- if they're narrow-minded, you will be too. You're idealistic, but may be a religious fanatic or blind adherent to dogmatic creeds if you're unevolved. Spiritual laws and ethics supersede personality likes and wants. You tell the unedited, unfiltered truth, for good or for bad. Since you understand current trends, you can almost predict the future. Your glib tongue and easy-going manner make you a good salesman (or con man), but it's deceptive. Your lack of organization and discipline as well as a tendency to procrastinate tend to take a toll on your nerves. You get tired when you become bored and need more than average physical exercise. Under anxiety, you tend to get depressed. Women tend to be too aggressive in relationships with men, want to run the show, admire very masculine men, are not fond of domestic tasks, are highly independent, yet are charming and agreeable mates. You're very versatile and like to be doing several things at once, often holding down two jobs. You continually raise your goals even before you reach your original goals, and you always learn from your mistakes-- eventually. You may overlook details but have good planning ability overall. Details-- or anything else for that matter don't worry you. You may be blindly optimistic, although help always seems to arrive when needed. You expand your ego through creativity and may have moralistic tendencies, particularly in your old age. You need a lively and inventive sex life and your partner's mind is as important as the body-- you can't settle into an emotional relationship in which you must make allowances for intellectual differences. As a parent, your natural optimism bolsters your faith in your children. Parenthood becomes a challenge. You may expect too much from your children intellectually, but you'll have great fun with your kids and they'll learn as much at home as in school. As a child, you may be a little wild (girls will be tomboyish) and good at athletics, naturally intelligent and you don't like restrictive discipline (like being grounded.)

Hmmm, so you are an Aquarian. Cool, a Sag dude will get along great with an Aquarian.

As a (wounded)veteran of relationships with 2 different Archers, I can tell you that everything Pidua wrote is right on target!

ESPECIALLY, the part about getting sucked into being his caretaker. Bad news for my Cancer Asc! *sigh*

IMHO, the number one thing a Saggi guy has to have is his freedom! He will fight for it, at all costs.
A girl that doesn't stress out when he takes a week to call her, who is ready to go anywhere and do anything at a moments notice, and NEVER, EVER demands to know where he has been for the last few days (or weeks or months) is his perfect partner.

As an Aqua, you should be able to appreciate his sudden changes and off the wall ideas. Not to mention, showing him a few of your own!

Have fun!
