We should all remember to put an 'lol' or 'just kidding' after our not so polite comments... -- That was funny what you said, RAS, about air signs wanting to bring joy to the world and not feeling emotions profoundly enough. I mean, compared to water signs, that's true. I guess the way it was worded made me want to cry and say: "I'm still human. I still have a soul!" Haha, jk. (sag moon humor) IP: Logged |

I don't presume to know what God intended for me. I know others are doing it, but I feel it's not my place to assume anything. I just try to live my life at best that I can.Edit: Not gonna lie, this post coming from an Aquarius is a little disappointing though.  [/B][/QUOTE] If you read what I said at the bottom about God, I said that was my personal belief / philosophy and not to blast me, those are my values, not saying they are anyone else's, and the point I was making with the whole post was that male/ female Platonic friendships are typically not the same as male/male or female/female friendships, because most people feel more comfortable with same gender, and those were just examples of what might be talked about, not to be taken soo literally, and I realize there are people who are exceptions to the rule, but I was just talking in general.

AQUAGUY: You know there are other topics to discuss, right? Not everyone talks about showers, and doing nails,etc... some friends of both sexes talk about music, movies, religion, life, health, babies, pseudosciences, diet,etc. There are so many sane, not uncomfortable topics to list. We can even talk about hamburgers!  Aquaguy, your idea of women being this whole feminine type of force is starting to get kind of old. You shared your opinion, that was mine. I wouldn't ever talk about something so intimate in my entire life. lol. (Unless of course it was a best friend) You should try getting fresh new female friends. Enter the friendship with an clear mind and see where that takes you. Honestly, I'm 100% comfortable with all of my friends who are boys. Your an 11th ruled sign! Embrace your Aquarian! Don't let all of that 3 fixed sign stubborness weigh you down. I think the more you interact with them, easier it becomes. IP: Logged |

again as I already re-established in my reply to psytaurus those were examples of things that might be talked about, I wish people wouldn't put words in others mouths as that is one of my biggest pet peeves.andthe point I was making was that male female friendships are typically not the same as same sex friendships, which typically they aren't,again the keyword is typically I understand there are exceptions to every rule,have I made myself crystal clear? And no I am me, I f anyone doesn't like me being me than that's just fine.IP: Logged |

aquaguy i do get what you mean. Between a guy and a girl there's always a certain awkwardness there unless you both find each other completely repulsive. But unless it's like that, there's always a tiny hint of sexual attraction.IP: Logged |

And again so nobody misunderstands again, on the post where I was giving my view on male female friendships where I put the subjects that women might talk about together, yes I understand not everybody talks about that and only that,it was simply a device to showhat women might feel more comfortable talking about to other women, it was my assertion that guys feel more comfortable being themselves around other guys and girls with other girls typically, I know there are exceptions to every rule.IP: Logged |

Psytaurus - it shouldn't be actually Aquarians have a staple of being liberal when that's just a stereotype. They're similar to Sagittarians in that they hold strong to their beliefs and they truly believe THEIR belief system would work for all of man-kind. Aquaguy is just being true to his fixed sign. I know two Aquarian/Capricorn guys who are both involved in law. One of them is actually studying accounting and finance, something completely boring vs. the "eccentric" Aquarian prototype. I can totally understand both points of view though; the personality behind them anyway.IP: Logged |

Since we're on the topic and I have an honorary Aquarian moon (actually, my moon progressed into Aqua when I was around 7) with my moon trine uranus aspect, I actually believe guys and girls can be just friends. The friendship may be different than those of the same sex, but when you look at it it's no different than saying you adjust differently to Sarah vs. when you're hanging out with Jessica. You're not going to treat either girl the same. I don't really talk about my sex life with my girl friends, nor they with me. We're visual people so that kind of thing can get a bit disturbing. Conversely I have a straight guy friend who I know shares an emotional bond with me that is purely platonic. All depends on different factors I suppose.IP: Logged |

that's cool, yea I do believe there are exceptions, what I said is just my observations, but in my case in particular when I meet a girl she either loves me or hates me, and I guess its my aqua placements that always cause me to fall for the girls I am friends with.IP: Logged |

I actually understand that. I usually hate Aquarius guys when I first meet them and then it develops into a deep friendship. I'm not sure why, but I think I just feel provoked by them, challenged. And I get ****** off because there's no reason to feel that way when you don't even know the person.

Was it you who was talking about an Aquarius security guard that you thought was arrogant? What's funny is people tell me I look arrogant or stuck up but really I'm shy lol. IP: Logged |

Insecure people are more likely to peg someone as stuck-up. Confident people would say something like, "What's wrong? Why are you so quiet?" and then try to be your friend, because they prefer someone who lets them shine rather than competing with them for the limelight.Unless your demeanor interferes with your job, it's not your problem. ~ Virgo Saturn in the 12th, have been deemed stuck-up , mostly by other girls when I was in high school IP: Logged |

quote: Originally posted by aquaguy91: Well guys and girls can be friends, but typically only in a superficial way,I mean think about it, do you feel comfortable talking to most guys as you would girls?maybe you are the exception but for the most part people feel more safe and understood around other people of the same gender, because we have more in common and can identify more with each other. I have had friends who have brought female friends into the circle. when we hung out, and even though it. wasn't explicitly said, none of us were. completely comfortable being our. unabashed selves, there was a feeling o. f. having to walk on eggshells to avoid. offending the lady, we didn't feel free. discussing what guys normally discuss. when hanging out , such as sex,women. etc. And I have a gay friend who. happens. to be one of the girls with his. female friends and he brought me up to. speed on what females discuss behind. closed doors: their sex lives (in great. detail. apparently),periods,clothes,emotions,bod. y image,relationships etc. But you. rarely. hear women discuss these things. around so called Guy bestfriends and. likewise guys censor themselves around. female friends,and you can't truly be. friends of close friends with someone you don't feel completely comfortable around, and in my opinion you find that one person of the opposite sex you do feel comfortable with, feelings almost always are going to developed in atleast one of the 2, bottom line. Now this is just my opinion, so people don't blast me, but I personally think God intended us to have a same sex network of friends and opposite to be our husband/ wife and "bestfriend" honestly if you have a partner why do you need other friends of the opposite sex too?
My Aqua friend would agree with you. He states that "..guys don't talk to girls they are not interested in.." IP: Logged |

I feel like I need to clarify:There were two things that upset me in your initial post, aquaguy91! 1. First that just because people don't share every detail with their friends aren't serious about that particular relationship. What I explained (or tried to do anyway) in my previous post that's not true. That just because I'm not the sharing that doesn't mean I'm not serious about my friends. This is something that I've got from your post. 2. God. Your belief is just that. I don't share it and I most definitively don't agree with it, but I can respect it. Plus this is a moot point since I'm sure we don't have the same religion. If something was lost in translation and I misunderstood then I just want to come out and say that I didn't want to actually offend anyone. quote: Originally posted by hannaramaa: Psytaurus - it shouldn't be actually Aquarians have a staple of being liberal when that's just a stereotype.

Yeah, looking from this point of view it makes sense.

That's very true (what you said about the stereotype.) I've met some uberconservative Aquas and Sagittarians... they all had Mercury in Capricorn, though. I read somewhere that Aquas start off liberal and can become conservative since the opinions and tastes formed in their youth... never change LOL. I will always maintain that 90's music is the greatest  IP: Logged |

Aquaguy91, I sort of know what you're saying, though I don't totally agree. I think guys and girls can be friends. I for one am not interested in talking about all of the "girly" things you mentioned, my chart is very masculine and mostly universal signs; I like to talk about global politics, relationships (sometimes in a crude way like men do), movies, shows like "The Walking Dead," science, metaphysics, etc. etc. I'm not interested in having babies and I don't talk about shoes or shopping (even if I were interested, my feet are too big to buy shoes in-store most of the time, and I'm too cheap to shop, lol). It just depends on the temperament of the two individuals involved. Having said that, there can be that layer of awkwardness there if a girl knows her friend is sexually attracted to her... an unwelcome tension, if you will. And male friends, when you tell them problems you are having with your boyfriend and seek advice from them will almost always tell you to break up with him so you can be single again, lol. But some single girls who want someone to go clubbing with will do this, too.I have cherished friends of both sexes. My most comfortable male/female friendship, though, is with a guy who is gay, not gonna lie. So I guess what I'm saying is I can see both sides. Aquaguy, I think where you encountered resistance is where you said, God intended us to have a same sex network of friends and opposite to be our husband/ wife and "bestfriend." Them's fightin' words, lol. Aquaguy, you said that girls like to talk about body image, well that's actually one of the things I value about having straight guy friends. Girls are constantly talking about how skinny they want to be/how they're on a diet, and hanging with straight guys can boost confidence because many times they'll blatantly say to you how they want a girl with a little bit of ass on her and check out normal-sized girls in front of you and describe their sex appeal... it's refreshing! (Again, not every girl gets offended at crude and frank sex talk). IP: Logged |

Yeah, no. Lol. I stopped talking to my friends about periods after it lost its novelty at 15.
