I've known a few Aquarians. And yes, while one of them fits the stereotype of being an awesome friend but a rotten boyfriend (he treats women very well, and his last long-term gf was a best friend to him and he cared for her a lot, but he was repeatedly unfaithful)... But the other guy, two long-term relationships, not one bit of unfaithfulness, domestic bliss. So they aren't all the same! Just wanted to voice my support for the Aquarian men who don't fit the stereotype, cos you are awesome.

I love Aquarian men myself
they have a lot of good qualities
right now Saturn is opposing Aquarius so they are being tested
When Saturn enters Virgo
they'll start looking good (to everyone else) again.

Most of the Aqua men I know or have known deserve that rep, IMHO.

My Aqua uncle has had, let me count, 1, 2, 3, 4...no 5 wives. He's still married to his second one, a leo, and is still married to his fifth wife, a gemini, too. This part of him makes me embarrassed that we're related.

I agree that Aquarian men do make good friends, but my best friend, a Scorpio sun and double Cancer was very serious with a double Aquarius(sun and moon) and he cheated on her about a couple hundred times. Well maybe not that many times but honestly around 7 or 8. It wasn't just kissing either. > Then again my grandfather and grandmother are both Aquarians and they've been loyal to each other for all their years of marrage. I'm torn!

Noone..... well I should say "I" am not denying that Aquas are good people. They are very difficult people to deal with on an intimate level. They are humanitarians at heart so of course they make excellent friends. key word FRIENDS. Its just that when romance comes in to play I think it complicates things for them because they seem to be terribly afraid of vulnerability because they suspect people have alterior motives. a lot of times they are suspicious without a cause.
And Usually the people that work well with aquas are other air signs. Which would explain why the Aqua grandparents have made it. They understand each other because its like they are looking in the mirror. They have similiar thought patterns.... and seldom share an aquarian thought pattern; which is odd and a bit to the left (in a good way). They are so ahead of their time, our time. They think things that the average person wouldnt think because of their detachment ability which allows them to scrap the old and make room to explore the new. I love my Aquarius!!!! Which is why I started my post asking for help

A Cancer Woman and her Aquarius Love: God or Somebody please help me.

I am just looking for help so I can understand Aquas. Because mine wont leave me be when I lose patience with his zig zag behavior patterns. So if you have any knowledge & you can help me.... please read my topic and tell me what you think.

What I'm trying to say is the point that keeps coming up here time and time again... a person is more than their sun sign, there are the other placements and aspects to consider. For example the guy who I mentioned in my first post, the one who's been in two stable long-term relationships... he's so loyal to his gf... and he is a.... ta-daahhh! Taurus rising. So they have a very cosy, home-based life and I know he adores her. I WILL say that she complains about his detachment, as in not giving her a hug every day and stuff like that, but that doesn't mean he doesn't love her. And he is faithful.

I'm guessing that if there's a good prominence of earth or maybe a sign like Cancer in the right places and making the right aspects in the Aquarian's natal chart, then it would be unfair to judge them by the negative stereotype.

Another thought is that it could also be affected by the relationship they are in - ie the composite.

AGH. Like I mentioned before my best friend, Scorpio sun, and double cancer, her heart was in smitherines after her double Aqua cheated time and time again. Hopefully her Aquarian lover has some water signs in the mix to be as emotional as a Cancer is!

I love that eccentric handsome look in Aquarius men. Adventurous childish look in their eyes, scientific original ideas on their minds, very friendly attitude in whatever they do. My ex-bf is Aquarius and he was very loyal (Sagittarius Moon, Sagittarius AC), he never cheated on me. God, how can he cheat on a girl like me! Joking. GeminiLover75 has a point there; they dont all look like each other considering relationships. Disdivarocks! Chasten an Aquarian? Well, not very likely to happen, at least not completely. You should never lose patience with Aquarius and just be as much 'zig zag' and unpredictable as he is. And if he is really into you, he surely will go exploring. A girl like him? Worth discovering! Can she ever be discovered? As long as the answer is a big NO! he'll be emotionally faithful. Have fun and do not forget to kiss him for being so exciting, caress his tousled hair for being so eccentric, look at him in the eye to see his admiration towards you along with puzzled feelings, show him a beautiful smile and leave him there, making him wondering what kind of creature you are! lol.

Aww Aquas are nice.. T.T My dad is Aqua (Aries Moon/Gemini ascendant) and he's very caring and absolutely faithful (in any ways).. My bf has Aqua ascendant, and he's also very devoted (he's Scorpio Sun/Pisces Moon)..
People I've met that has Aqua influences are really intelligent, funny and really great friends.. ^_^ They are also very interesting! But other traits, such as being a crappy bf/gf, it also depends on the rest of the chart.. For example, having a Pisces Sun doesn't mean you're really caring for everyone, just as having an Aries Sun doesn't mean you're necessarily selfish (but I'm Aries Sun and I'm somehow selfish ahah). ^_^

Okay listen to this and then see if u can guide me. Okay? K....

We havent been intimate since new years eve. We talk ,text and he has spent the night with me once after that (only sleeping & watching tv). I just moved down the hall 2 a new bigger 2 bed room apartment and he hasnt been here yet. How do i get him to come here without thinking that im pushing up on him 2 be in a relationship or something really serious? I know how Aquas fear losing there freedom and independence. What could i say 2 get him 2 come inside and kick it with me. He helped me inside with my groceries in the pouring down rain last week but he didnt come into the house; he just made sure i f=got out of the rain. I know he's going through something right now because he just find out like 2 weeks ago that his 11 year old daughter isnt his. He took a DNA test. He told me like 2 days later. Actually thats the day he helped me in the house. He still does his normal functionings, i think he's sad when he's alone. I asked him if he cried he said yes. He promotes parties and i went to the last one. I always observe him watching me from the sideline. He's very popular big time guy. Girls flock 2 him so I dont really speak 2 him 2 much when i see him. Tooo many damn groupies watching him. Plus I get all shy inside like a little girl. I dont know what 2 say. But i play it cool. At the party i left his VIP section and went and bought a drink and when i came back he had a fit. Because he bought expensive bottles of drinks. So he was mad because he was supposed 2 accomodate me he feels. Im rambling right now. But tell me how to lure him in. I know that from trying the subtle approach that thats what cayches his eye. He likes 2 watch me, Im so mysterious looking. I dont dance with other guys. Actually I dance for him because i know he's watching me. I act as if he's not there though. But I know.
Oh and he lives around the corner from me so we pass each other by; we ride past each others house. Like today i rode past his house and he was sitting in his car. I tooted my horn. Then he text me and asked why i wasnt at work. I text back & then he called me. But he didnt ask to see me; maybe because he had something 2 do. But he used 2 stop by for a few seconds before he handled business. But that was when we were heavily involved. I also asked him in a text last night when he was going to come see my new place but he didnt respond. Not last nite or today when we spoke. Should I ask him again? If so how should i word it? what advice and tactics do you suggest?

This is a MAJOR thing for any man. For an Aquarian it also means that his powers of perception have not been good enough to perceive that the girl's mother has tricked him. Boy, would that keep me busy, and the last thing on my mind would be to get involved, no matter how tempting the prospective partner may be.

He probably has some issues with trusting women as a result of this situation,(Depending on how it turned out) you might not want to be involved with him right now because he could take it out on you. I'd wait until he was over this emotional blow.

But he keeps seeking me. Like this morning he called me.He's sick... and he sounds really bad and congested.He rode past my house and saw my car so he called me while he was on his way to run his errands. I told him what to do to get better and we discussed the medicine he made me take long ago when i was sick. I have more and told him to come get mine instead of buying some. He said okay he'll call back after he finishes running around. It's like he wants to be in my company but he has too much pride or something to admit it or ask to be around me. I am usually a breathe of fresh air for him. He calls me when he is stressed, before he does something big like a test. He calls me for comfort and encouragement.
Ultimately, at the end of the day he is my friend. I love him and I care about his well being. So if i cant be a part of his life as his girlfriend >>> wife; then i will just have to be only his friend. But I dont want to see him with another. I want 2 be the woman on his arm. He wants to love but he doesnt know how. Its almost as if he is afraid/ashamed of feelings. He has always had trust issues with women. We discussed this already he has lots of sisters and a mother and he observed their sneaky ways. There just has to be a way for me to get inside his heart. Any ideas you guys?

i think aqua men do get a really bad rep... my brother is an aqua, and he is seriously the most amazing father/husband ever. seriously, everyone that meets him & his family are just in absolute awe of him and his wife's relationship. you can definitely see that they are in fact, best friends before anything. it took him 7-8 years to propose to her, even though they both knew that they were meant to be. i think the fear of "commitment" is actually, a fear of a "divorce"...ya know? for me (aqua sun), i get really scared the possibility of there being a breakup... cause that would just shatter me. i don't do "real" relationships because i can't put myself out there to get hurt, so i go for compatible, but casual guys... that have some distance about them. but usually i'm happy just being surrounded by my guy "friends". and, being an aqua, if i find that i'm hanging out with someone (anyone - guy or girl) a lot, or "too much", i will instantly just disappear. my best friends know this about me... i go through period phases where we'll be joined at the hip, and then something clicks in my brain and i'll be like "oh my gosh, i'm getting so close to this person... they are the best... i love them so much, what would i do without them?" - that one thought ("what would i do without them?") scares the crap out of me. so then instantly i will consciously and intentionally remove them from my life, and PROVE to myself that i am ok on my own. i dunno, maybe its because some aquas feel so lonely, that becomes their comfort zone: alone. this makes no sense, i'm sure... but i hope you trust whatever your aqua tells you. if he says he cares for you, then he does, and he probably always will (unless you cross him, and then you probably won't exist to him!) care for you.... he may not show it, and he may be distant, but these are clues that he does in fact care for you... so much so that he is getting scared of his own emotions and feelings, and probably retreating because of that.

My dad is an AQUA, he has cheated on my mom since they got married, she left now he is with one of the ladies he cheated with and HAHA now he is cheating on her, but also I had a serious relationship with an aqua once and he was the sweetest boyfriend ever! Even though I found out after we broke up that he did cheat on me....

Than again anybody can be a cheater.

That appears to b exactly what he does. One time he stayed the night over my house like 5 times within 2 weeks. So unlike him. Then one night he got up in the middle of the night after we were intimate & went home. Next day I ask why he said just because. Then later he said he was in my space 2 much. Talked about how many nights he were there. I was making him dinner, we were being intimate, having intimacy, bugging out like friends do and then he fell back (disappeared). I was clueless. Thought I did something wrong. Then after much talking to others and reading horoscopes I gathered that he was calculating how close he let his self get to me and then he slipped up and got all caught up in me. He started loving watching tv til late night, being cuddled up with me having pillow talking and then making love and more pillow talk and having me fall asleep on his chest listening 2 the beat of his heart. I guess that scared him. Because his calls became few. It was like he was avoiding me. I was so hurt couldn’t understand it. But I couldn’t stay mad at him because he didn’t do it in a mean manner. Always respectful and considerate. And still something very sincere and loving about him. And I still loved him & still do. I always wanna know if he’s okay. He’s my friend but I just want more. So basically I will wait for him. I tried dating other people but I cant stop comparing them to him. I always wanted a guy like him. Then he came along and I was like great!!! Someone who meets my criteria. At times he can be so attentive, fun,warm and loving & then cold. And that cold is what gets me. But nevertheless I cant help who my heart loves. So I decided to stop dating other guys and wait him out. I figure he’ll come around. But do u think theres anything I can do? Or should I just pretend that im so busy and be subtle about wanting him. I don’t want him 2 thinkim not interested in him. We were texting one day and I told him I still love him and all types of sweet stuff. He was surprised that I still cared for him after he had shut me out and broke my heart. I can’t stop loving him. I tried and I try. But my every thought is him. And more recently we were talking in the car about the DNA test he took for his “not” daughter and he hugged me really tight. More than once. Then he zipped down my little hoody jacket and said let me see what my friends are doing in there. He knows that my breast are a special place 4 me as well as his favorite. I shyed away jokingly and asked about my friend. I think he was teasing me but I’m not sure if he’s trying 2 restart something intimate with me. He gave me like 6 consecutive kisses: cheek, cheek, neck, down neck, cheek , and forehead. Those forehead kisses always make my heart melt. So now I’m confused. And maybe he is too. Maybe he wants me but is afraid I will hurt him too. Is there a way I could prove that I wouldn’t. He actually wants his own child now. I want another child because my son is 6 years old. But how do we get 2 that goal if we have this issue (his fear) preventing that?
Help guys… what should I do. I don’t have to have a smothering relationship with him because sometimes I am weird and I want to be alone. I’m moody at times which is why I like 2 live alone… sometimes I want 2 just be. That will work fine for us because he is this way too sometimes. But how do we get reconnected like we were before?
