Are Aries typically sensitive? I feel like I have to filter what I say sometimes to this man I like because I am noticing he can take things the wrong way when nothing hurtful was meant. His rising sign is Cancer if that might also have something to do with it. I just hate having to filter or watch what I say because I feel like we should be able to say anything to each other. Thanks. IP: Logged |

Hi Castalia,I wouldn't say Aries people are typically sensitive, but there are exceptions to every rule. I think Aries people are more so emotional than sensitive and we express our emotions a lot. One thing I wanna say to u though, is that the worst thing u could with an Aries is filter everything you say and not really say whats on your mind. When people try to be all nice or agree with me just for the sake of agreeing or don't really tell me what they think about a certain situation, I sense that and it makes me really uncomfortable. I would feel as though they're not being honest with me and i'd eventually lose my trust in them. If you feel like this situation is restricting your relationship and u can't say everything to each other anymore, then i think you should talk to him about it and tell him how he makes u feel. Normally Aries people are very honest and they tell you everything that's on their mind, so if something's bothering him he would tell you. My advice is: Don't filter the conversation, just be yourself and be honest and if he takes things the wrong way just tell him u meant nothing by it and that the fact that he always takes things u say too seriously really bothers u. Chanses are he'll understand that once u've explained it to him. IP: Logged |

aww, he's a cancer rising with aries sun like me.speaking from my experience, i know i am very sensitive. (you heard it here folks, i've never written that before in my entire life, until now!) i don't do too well around "free for all" behavior and make a point to stay away from negativity the best i can. cancer is a water sign and absorbs everything. if you're not the type that uses tact and sensitivity, cancer rising is definitely not the sign for you. this is because cancer puts a value on everything. i had a libra sun, libra rising and aries moon friend who wanted just what you had asked, to say any and all regardless of whether it is abusive or not---and still be friends! cancer rising says, nooooo. may sound not so great and limited :-/ i do not need unrestrained energy expressed with a lack of forethought at me.

Interesting how big bad Aries can get that ego harnessed right in by a water sign. I'm Aries/f with Pisces in mars, venus and mercury. Rising/Sag and Moon/Leo. Thank God for the backup or I'd be the number one customer for kleenex tissues!IP: Logged |

Thank you all for the responses. Interesting that two of you also have Cancer rising. I definitely have not and don't want to filter what I say...maybe I am just not tactful enough...though I thought I was. Anyway, he seems to be over whatever it was he took the wrong way, so I'm just hoping he is truly over it deep down and isn't just sitting there adding up in his head every little thing I have said that he took wrong. *smile*IP: Logged |

Remember that you square each other, meaning you square off alot. Miscommunication and non-mutual intentions are commonplace with the square. What you think are honerable intentions can be anathema to everything he stands for, or just a waste of time in his mind You may have the same level of intensity in your opinions, but about different things. His main focus in life may not seem worth it to you, and vise versa. And it's further complicated by the fact that in order to pursue what you value (i.e. family bonds, security, synergy), it would definately be counterproductive to what he values (adventure, competition, self actualization).Although his rising sign is Cancer, I think this guy would break your heart. But, signs that are square to one another pair up all the time. It's odd, really. That's not what I really wanted to say. I wanted to say, Aries is a volatile sign. They're quick to respond, physically, emotionally, mentally. They are not afraid of confrontation, and they will not pull the "passive aggressive" act on you. No, it's full out "What he11 are you implying by that?! I take offense to that" mode. Rather than thinking to themselves "Why did she say that? What does she take me for? I think she's kind of a bi*tch if she meant it that way. I'm not going to ask, though. I'll just assume she's a b*tch" IP: Logged |

I hope that you are right about him just confronting me or saying it outright if something really bothered him...that sort of relieves me some. I think that I have stepped back enough from things right now that it isn't possible to break my heart. However, if he pursued me and I fell back into really liking him, I guess the chance of him breaking my heart would be there all over again. Ah well, we'll see...maybe I'm breaking his heart and just don't know it. HaHa!IP: Logged |

"I wouldn't say Aries people are typically sensitive, but there are exceptions to every rule. I think Aries people are more so emotional than sensitive and we express our emotions a lot. When we're angry we scream and shout. When we're sad we cry and when we're happy we laugh."So right about us Aries, Aries-Chick. We are all emotional people, who express our thoughts and feelings in every situation. We are never WEAK, we don't back down, but tend to take everything emotionaly rather Mentaly, atleast that's how I am....LOL IP: Logged |

Aries men can be very sweet, my first husband was an Aries with Venus in Pisces and Mars in Cancer and he was very sensitive to me, a Taurus. Basically he let women walk all over him except financially.He did a lot for me at the time, setting me up in a new job and helped my self esteem right after I had a big surgery. he was a doll. There was no other man waiting for me but him. My libra would have run at that time. Too bad I was over sensitive when he would stay out late with the guys. Now I would be more assertive, I think. Natasha Taurus Cancer Moon/8th house Singleton Yes I can be sensitive at times, I cried a lot when we were together, because I just do! Whenever I am nervous or excited I cry (or pee). IP: Logged |

I think we Aries are sensitive when it comes to what we might perceive as criticismRemember, like someone else in this thread said, we're selfish. It's all about me me me me me. LOL We like to be first, and if we're not, we feel slighted and then might sulk. But like Linda said, Aries fire (anger) doesn't last long. It's the Aries ice that can last forever. IP: Logged |

I just wanted to say, as a Libra who has two restrictive slow planets in Capricorn...Sometimes you won't get an immediate reaction to how someone feels about something because they want to wait until they get more information. It's just so we can make an informed decision based on something we feel is accurate. Therefore, we feel more comfortable. Part of it is getting used to a person's inflections and manner of speaking. Learning when they are being sarcastic as opposed to dead serious, or vise versa. Sometimes people say things to egg you on, or to make you give up information about which one should be more discreet. Things like that. So for Aries, if you don't get an immediate reaction or opinion based on what you say or how you act, it might actually be a good sign. There are people who care enough to take their time to know you better... .gloria ------------------ it's better to light a candle than curse the darkness... IP: Logged | |
