Hi Everyone,

I recently met an amazing guy and I just want to know if anyone has any insights in what being in a relationship with an Aquarius may be like. I've met all his friends and they seem to be really important to him. At times he seems like he is the most shyest person in the room and then other times he is the show off. I have no idea what to expect from him and I think thats why I find him so exciting. In the beginning, he told me that he isn't looking for anything serious. But now, I go out and he is asking me questions like so how many guys did you talk to tonight? Then he asked me how many guys I was seeing besides him. I told him I didn't want to talk about that and he said well i'll be honest with you. I had a feeling he would be brutally honest and I wasn't ready to hear his answer. My question is does this sound like a guy that doesn't want to get serious or is he feeling me out for something more? I can't read him and its driving me crazy. He also has a scorpio moon so I don't know if this influence makes him a bit more possessive than the average scorpio. I also have a scorpio moon so I know about that all too well.

I wouldn't say that Aquarius men are 'possessive,' but contrary to popular belief, they are inclined to be jealous, but good luck trying to ever get one to admit it! I would agree that Scorp influences bring about more of a jealous nature. But I would also say that it's not as much so as a Scorp Sun!

Aries and Aquarius get along well. Have you read the chapter in Love Signs?

hi dawn,

i'm an aries sun with a capricorn moon and my co-worker is an aquarius sun with a scorpio moon!

we get along great. we've never argued or got into petty jealous squabbles. we divide the work between us evenly and treat each other fairly.

i think aquarian men are the one sign who can be respectful friends with women. i have never encountered one who used derogratory and sexist language against them.

Dawn -

Do NOT look for a serious "thing" with this guy no matter WHAT it looks like he wants. Don't expect anything more than platonic play or platonic sex.

You were right on about how important his friends are to him. This man has the power to command the respect of EVERYONE he meets, and he BELONGS to the masses.

No matter what labyrinths he leads you down, you will always come back to this basic truth.

In addition, of all the Aqua's, this is the only one with such a negative thread running through his life. Albeit, when it comes to "friends" or "the public" or "co-workers" all is perfectly fine. I speak of serious highly committed, romantic/marriage partner type stuff. THAT's another story.

Whenever you catch yourself having "feelings" for him or "wondering" what his true intentions are, just remind yourself that what he's trying to do to you is WORKING.

If you are clear that all you want is friendship or a working relationship, all will go well for you. If not, expect heartbreak. It takes a special kind of "player" to work through this. Aries tends to be all or nothing. Sooo....

Good luck!

with love & support,

Man on man have I been here.

I'm an Aquarius with a Scorpio moon and am repeatedly drawn into relationships with Aries.

One thing I always questioned with Linda is that she thought that Aquarius MEN were relationship shy but that the WOMEN were not. I haven't found that to be true.

I have just as much intimacy issues as any Aquarius. Ask any of the Aries men I've dated- I keep just out of reach.

I re-worked a bit of Linda

"These two can have a glorious time together if Aries could understand one thing. When Aquarius laughs it's because she feels very sad. When she cries it's because she feels very happy.
Once you catch on to this important game she plays you'll have an easier time with all her other tricks. I'm referring to the tricks the Water Bearer uses to keep someone from guessing she really cares about them. Also the tricks she uses when the've already guessed and she doesn't want them to find out how deeply she cares. And don't leave out the tricks she uses when she knows she's helplessly in love and is still trying to convince herself she can switch it back to friendship again before it's too late.
If your sitting up at night because the Aquarian you want is treating you with (calculated) detatchment, acting as though you totally turn her off (when in reality she's so turned on she's forgotten what year it is) then you should memorize a few lines from a poem that exposes this type of situation:

I must go now
don't hold me with your eyes
and reach your heart across the room like that
or my own will break
love you? Of course I love you.
that's why I have to go...
before you know how much.

Thank you everyone for your replies. I haven't read Love Signs in a really long time and the section on Aries/Aquarius I know I passed up since I've never been involved with one. I tend to always go for the Earth signs. I can be just as detached as him since I love my freedom too I just didn't want him to have any resentment towards me and think I am taking him for granted. I really feel we could make it for the long haul if I just lets things grow naturally. I haven't seen him since Sunday and I know I'm not going to call him, I want him to call me. I hate this power struggle that I feel I always need to play and this goes with all my relationships, past and present. I guess I should just stop over analyzing everything and just let things happen. I know for an Aquarius they put more emphasis on friendship so I guess thats what I need to be a good friend first and foremost. If we have the same Scorpio moon will this make it seem like we are more compatible emotionally? It seems as if he knows exactly what I want when I want it. I think this is what I love about him. oops did i say love..i better stop..friend, friend, friend..must repeat on daily basis

Hi Dawn
Your right, dont call him, let him run the game and feel like your fading away...then he comes. I`m a Aqu sun myself and recently dated a Aqu sun guy. A Buddhist by the way, almost an ascet. I broke up cause we where too intence from day one and ended after just 2 weeks. I did not want to end, END it just breathe and start over. Now he makes me feel very young, stupid, he is pitty petting me in a way, driving me crazy! From treating me as a princess, his nectar in life...to making me feel that our friendship is for my sake only. And it is his game or no game. I feelt the replies you got where right on spot and it helped me too...

Thanks all and good luck Dawn!

Hi Nagali,

It sounds like you still really care for this guy. It seems that when we part prematurely for whatever reason your heart still holds on. I'm sure what he is doing sounds more like a defense mechanism because here he was giving you his all and it was too much for you at the time. By him making you feel like his friendship is more for your sake is just him trying to preserve his male ego. I've seen this many times with men no matter what his sign. Being that he is still around you shows that he still cares. If he is meant to be, he'll come around. Wish you the best..

Personally, and I know I'm probably annoy people for saying this ! But I've vowed to never take any form of relationship with an Aquarius serious ! I'm an Aries and have got burned by every Aquarius I've met, friend, male, female, love interest, workmate, we just don't mesh ! One of my best friends is an Aquarius, but only because I limit the time I spend with her, and ignore a lot of what she says As far as I'm concerned, it's really not worth getting into, I'll be nice, but I always know that I'm doing both of us a favour !

P'haps that's because an Aqua/Aries relationship is one of those heavily karmic ones that Linda talks about (like *shudder* Pisces/Taurus) -
what's that she said?
There's either a good deal of hurt or a good deal of help dealt out and received by both parties, and oftentimes a heavy mixture of the two (or something like that...my books're packed away right now).
