Okay the Gemini has popped up again in my life to say he misses me. And I made the mistake of being in a hotel room alone and I called him. I know, I know, He was there but didn't pick up. Don't ask how I know.

Anyway, now he is trying to contact me. Probably because I was in a hotel room calling him! How stupid is that! But I can't be alone in a hotel room for long, I start to go crazy.

I was on the road and there was a snowstorm, near where he lives. So I had to spend the night there. I didn't really expect him to be around. Now he has let me know he is angry that I didn't try harder to contact him. Meaning that he misses me. Which is good, but shouldn't he miss me more? Am I having feelings for him again, or he is he still just a friend?

Can Gemini Men be just friends with a woman?

Thanks,
Natasha

No more so than any man can be friends with a woman. In other words, yes men and women can be friends, but does this guy just want to be friends? No, obviously not.

Seeing i've been just friends with all Gem men in my life so far except one (who also came crawling back a few times), I'd say yes.

But bear in mind that Gems are often attracted to old, familiar situations and people when their lives get too chaotic, especially if the person has been a sympathetic, caretaker figure for them in the past. So I would seriously question his sincereity if there's other stuff going on in his life - he may just want someoen to mother him and sort out his mess. Don't do that, if that is the case.

Yes, they can be. They are the flirty kind of male friend to women though.

Can you live knowing that and be attracted at the same time?

Thanks Randall, you are pretty straightforward, no he does not want to be just friends so that is where the trouble comes in. I just can't seem to accept that, but I need to. Oh well, I probably won't see him again, since the chances of me being in his part of town are slim, and I won't go out of my way. He is also pretty lazy.

Flirty friend, no I don't handle that too well, with my Aries placements. I usually feel something, it's still hard to see my ex with someone else.

I will chalk this up to temporary insanity.
Obviously I am being creative here, and Gemini men are pretty rational.

I just hope I can handle being in his town again, without calling, I feel touchy about it. It's like I want to make sure he can't see anyone but me, but rationally I know that is bad and impossible. Still I get this weird feeling about him when he acts like he's interested, I get interested back and want to resolve that feeling. But then he reminds me that he has to flirt, and I feel it's impossible again.

Even when he flirts with me, I don't know whether I am interested in or not, but when he flirts with someone else, I remember that I am. By that time he is irritated with me. It's not that I don't know what to do, it's that I go hot and cold. I take flirting as a sign of distance, and it's not interesting to me after a few minutes. Still he insists that he wants a relationship and a monogamous one, that he needs a woman in his life to keep him steady, and give him someone to look forward to at night, and so then I start to think that could be me again.

Then I remember I'm not like that, and he's better off with a Cancer. He thinks I don't like him, but who can be that rational?

My mercury in gemini is pretty much useless at dealing with Gemini men. I like them, but is that enough to be friends with one? When I tell him how I feel, he doesn't understand it, but when I tell someone else, he gets mad and wonders why I don't talk to him.

I feel hemmed in with him instead of free, but he wants to be free? He doesn't act free around me, but I don't ask him for that. He's afraid of being rejected, but he won't say what he wants, instead he expects me to tell him what I want and then he can decide.

See why he makes me feel hemmed in? After a while I just want to chain him to a wall and leave, and say there! You're now committed.

Thanks,
Natasha

Aww, Natasha

Sounds like he's got something in your heart. But his ways are probably not in your best interests and you seem to already know that.

Since he's being a bugga, why not tease him? A little pain never hurt anybody and it could mediate the erm, tensions

You'll briefly feel more powerful and have an edge. You have something he wants. It's just that he's can't have it.

Ah well. He deserves the mental torture. A pinch here, a pinch there. You don't always have to be a grown up

Thanks Aphrodite, that is why you are the Goddess of Love. Of course, tease him:>

Maybe he is feeling teased? Good, hope so.
Let the teasing never end.

Yeah, he probably is feeling teased

Be Bad. If you want to call him, go right ahead. Geminis love to talk about anything. Make up something, shock him. Like:

Natasha: "Hi Honey . . . Eeek, I've found a dead mouse in my hotel room!"

Gemini: "Oh really?!? [Manhood games come out]. Want me to come over?"

Natasha: [In a calm, sensual voice]. "No, it's okay." [Flush the toilet]. "Problem solved."

my fiance is a gemini and he is friends with one of his ex's because he is the godfather of her daughter. He actually complained that when he was younger thats all girls ever wanted to was just be friends with him. He's not the flirtacious type either.

However I think with a lot of guys in general, if an ex calls them, and they are single and think they might get a little somethin somethin from someone theyve gotten a little somethin from before...then yeah theyre gonna act like theyve been missing you.

So I teased him well,
We had lunch, that is I ate while he talked, and I told him as much as I could in between about my life and how it's going. I managed to look really good, with a new jacket I made, and I had my hair done and makeup on, I know I looked good. I told him I was dating someone casually, and described him. There were a few touchy moments when I thought he would cry, but mostly he was detached, distant, numb.

He talked about a watch, food, anything but people. He has dated but he says he cant' commit to anyone right now, and looked depressed.

He looks like that all the time though, so I didn't offer any cheer, I just left him looking depressed and brooding. I didnt hold hands, and hugged once, which was good for me. Watching him try and hug me, was like being roasted alive. I don't need the act, just real hope.

He asked me about moving, and I told him I didn't know it was up to my finances, and I don't have a silver spoon in my mouth,

He said he may move, and I said that would never happen, he loved where he was. I told him to be honest, get as much out of life as possible, because you don't get it back.

I saw him crying in his car, but I still drove away. He wants different things, than I do, and doesn't know how to express himself without his penis being involved.

That's too much for me to handle, when he wants to support me emotionally, I'll be there.
What was weird is he kept asking me what I meant by what I was saying? What I really meant? He asked me if I wanted him to call me, and I said it depends on what you want when you call, if you want to visit great, but you have to spend the night in a motel. He just kept looking at me like I was really saying something else.

I am sure he is a deep emotional man, but he doesn't love me, or anyone, so I don't why he is teasing me that way. I hope that I teased him a bit too, but mainly I just want to be happy.

I know that he can't be happy right now, but I told him, I hope we can meet our significant others someday and look towards the future.

I am looking forward to seeing him again, and if that means it hurts him a little, I don't think it's teasing, I think it's him recognizing who I am.

Well rember how i posted "I don't get this aquarious girl".

Same thing she's such a tease, i will admit i had some intrest in her.

I did want more then a freindship and i'm assuming she knew this to.

In a since i'm am kinda wounded, but not
a lot since i'm quitng and moving on to a better job.

so he is probible hurt, but i mean it depends on how well he is able to change and move on as well as facing reality.

And about the move will maybe its this way of moving forward.

On to the friend thing, i think it can be difficult sometimes trying to figure out does she just want friendship or does she want more.

And i will agree with Gemini Nymph, it does seam like he wants someone to cheer him up and smother him.

Sorry, luv

It means 'for f@ck sake'...

I've gotten into my own personal experience with a Gemini man here before, so I just figured I'd be to the point on this one.

Love and light,
Ghani
