Those men were detached emotionally. Not all Aquas are. I’m certainly not.

It can. It depends on the synastry involved.

Depends on how you choose to define “bizarre.” Today’s “bizarre” ideas can turn into tomorrow’s technological conveniences used by the masses. Impatient with “stupid people”? lol… it’s simply appreciated when both parties can keep up with one another.

Girly fits—no. Tears—yes. I have a lot of empathy, and so do many fellow Aquas.

I do just fine in one-on-one dates. lol

lol, I’m hardly oblivious.

What else are they supposed to go off on if they're not Aqua men themselves.

^ I agree with this. Definitely depends on the synastry involved. I got close right away with my aqua friends just like i do with all the people i have been close to. (ive discovered its bc of my venus-mars conjunction square pluto). I dont find aquas any more detached or "Cold" than any other sign, just more willing to try to separate themselves from emotions and try to control emotions. I dont find aquas cold at all. Heck, they seem a lot more affectionate to me than any feminine sign i've met...And so many aqua girls i know are so sweet and friendly.

he is really really random though. Sometimes he is on endless funny mode, then blurts out something sentimental. Or he disappears for a few weeks, and pops out unannounced at the oddest moments. Very quirky but fascinating.

The Aquarius I dated, had told me the big "I love you" and called me nearly every night. We spent a lot of time together, and he knew I loved him back.

I don't understand or get along with Leos.... they're perplexing to me.

I've known Leos who crave the spotlight. To complement that, I'd say at the minimum, I like recognition for my work. Leos are said to be famous for drama, Aquarians reinvent the drama without the "drama." I've gotten along with Leo sun signs that I've met in person so far.

---

Reinvent the drama without the drama. I like it.

Leo likes to showboat and to be better than others.... being the center of attention b/c they are the best/hottest/smartest... aquas just like to stand out for being different, they don't want to be the BEST, rather they just want to be individuals & eccentric.
I think aquas like to stand out without it being obvious, not too contrived. They don't necessarily want someone to say "omg, that's the NICEST dress i've ever seen" they'd rather hear "wow, how strange, i've never seen anything like that dress!"
