I've been doing some research and found that some women find when a Gemini man is in love they act the opposite. Do you find this to be true?

In my experience, that does not hold true. All the Gemini men I know give so much focus and attention to their loved ones. My brother is a Gemini, and he's very, very loyal to the ones he loves and would not be like that. He doesn't have that "two face" thing going on where he acts like he can't stand you. Also, who would want to put up with a person like that?

When I love someone, she knows it. I'm not hiding it or acting like I don't. I did do that when I was a child though lol.

Yeah I've seen Gemini men completely transform when in love. They will actually control (or try) their whims, and they're pretty traditional in relationships. For some reason going dutch makes them feel uncomfortable, and the woman paying for them - emasculated (heard from two separate Gemini guys.)

In my honest opinion - nobody in love would act like they don't like you - regardless of their sign.

This kind of thing happens when the person is 'in lust'... and for whatever reason - either a moral or a more practical reason - they won't go there.. or perhaps they think you wouldn't want to go there, knowing it was just a sexual thing.

The only other situation I could think of - would be if they are married or in a serious relationship and they simply can't get out. Even if they fell in love - if they had some serious, responsible signs in their chart like Capricorn or Scorpio - they might never choose to break off an established relationship.

Hi Odette,

I read the second paragraph of your post and thought... Totally not true. I would hold back my feelings of love.

Then I read the third paragraph and I am in a serious relationship and I am a Sun in Cap with a Scorpio moon. You hit the nail on the head that time had to laugh to myself about it!

I have a very devoted Gemini Sun husband. He is however a Taurus Moon, Aries Rising, Saturn Cancer in 4th, and Venus Leo guy. Committed is not the word. However getting there took him FOREVER! It took him a year to say I love you. And for two years he didn't even know if he wanted to get married ever. Then all of a sudden like overnight he asked me to marry him and is now 100% all for marriage. I'm the wiggly one who get bored easily. He is as happy as a clam with routine, structure, and commitment. He is also the most loyal, dedicated guy.

He is however very aloof with him emotions. He keeps them hidden and rarely showers me with emotion or affection for that matter. And I need to hear the verbal and I need lots of physical and sometime I feel he's not that into me because he doesn't shower me with love. Soooooo, he'd say "how can you say that! Look at my actions. I'm crazy about you. I just don't show it." And I say, "If you keep it hidden, then how am I supposed to know!" It's an on going issue for us. lol. But we are totally inlove.

Yes, usually in the beginning just as the emotion hits 'em.

Phase 1: Gemini in neutral. He's chatty, witty, flirty, helpful & kind. You have the impression he's coming on to you. He's not, just being a Gemini.

Phase 2: It hits him, he kinda likes you. He rejects this emotion. Soon enough there's an argument, fierce debate, or some other drama.

Phase 3: He withdraws. Withholds communication, and vows never, ever to talk to you again - because you made him so angry.

Phase 4: Acceptance. Gemini is in love. He realizes he was wrong and irrational then sets out to woo you. His Venus sign comes out.

And later he told me, he was scared that I was just playing with him so he tried to ignore his feelings.

Well, eventually I got tired of being semi-rejected so I took the hint and stopped contacting him at all! But as soon as he noticed he called me like the next day and was like "Why are you ignoring me?" Ha!

After that it was pretty obvious that he liked me but just needed time to get used to it. He had issues trusting that when I told him I liked him I wasn't just being a typical flirty Gemini! Well, long story short - now he is very much open and affection. Still needs his space but he's always there for me.

He has a Cancer Venus, but I'd say in general Geminis are cautious at first and will try to hold someone at arms length just to watch and see how they act. But at the same time, Geminis will always want to be around the person they are into so they will show up where you show up.


Yes, this all sounds very familiar!

Probably so!

You're still on this whole Gemini thing and now trying to find evidence that Gemini males will act like the opposite if they like someone?! Such a bore and complete old news! Not only that, it's delusional and completely stupid.

Males of any sign who are of adult age will express that they like someone and go for the desired person without hesitation. They don't hide their feelings or beat around the bush unless there's something that's holding him back- which are usually doubts about the chick in question.

Get over it. Stop chasing your Gemini ex. It seems so desperate and as a triple Gemini, I'm embarrassed for you.

i love geminis. they're all sentimental and mushy once u get to know em. but not in a way that's TOO mushy and clingy, like say a water sign (good for me cuz i can feel drowned by that easily).

Gemini is prob the sign that's been more dedicated, loyal, and loving to me, of any of the signs. have two gemini sun leo moon, cancer venus best guy friends, and they shower me with some much love and reassurance and attempts to make me laugh its incredible. Have a close guy friend with gemini sun, moon, mercury, and venus and he is super sweet and playful and expressive. Shrugs. Had a friend who was gemini sun, aqua moon, and he was also way sweet. Had a close friend who was gemini sun and scorpio moon and he was too adorable and lovable. I dunno, i have always felt air signs were very mushy and sweet with me. I always make friends with guys. But i noticed air signs with me will switch to a "sweet girly voice" with me from time to time (even the girls, actually), and handle me with utmost care. haha its so sweet. I guess i seem fragile to them. I just never really understood the whole thing that air signs are unemotional or inexpressive. i dunno, i just never saw it.

If being realistic is harsh, then so be it. What? Because I'm a Gemini, I'm not allow to throw harsh realism at people? Is realism only reserved by Capricorns? Puleeeezzzz! People have to learn to not rely on astrological generalities to justify people's behavior towards them. Astrology goes only so far as to read into a person's psychological foundation, but as far as how a person chooses to treat you, it's really all them.

Maybe the Gemini doesn't want the OP. Maybe your Gemini male friends do think you're fragile and want to protect you. So what? It doesn't mean that all Gemini males will want to protect you and it doesn't mean that all Gemini males will want to run away from the OP. Maybe she'll find a new Gemini who won't run away from her. Maybe you'll encounter a Gemini male who wouldn't be friendly to you. There's too many astrological combos to consider to even fathom such generalizations.

That's true. I get what you mean. But maybe the OP has just noticed a pattern, and she wants to share. I do it all the time on the forum. IMO there's always a pattern there outside of natal aspects. always a pattern to be found in sun signs imo. after all the sun is our identity


I like this description of air, by another fellow cancer by the way

One cancer said:

quote:
Are there any cancerians who are in a relationship with an aquarian on here??
Or love aqua's.. I dont really have much aqua in my sign.. I know its my lilth but what the hell is that?
Anyway Some say its not a good match.

I think its a great match personally, both can be deep, think alot, aquas often enjoy a little bit of solitude, both creative, botha lil bit nutty and quirky. What does everyone else think?? Would love to know...

Also just from experience Geminis and cancerians seem to often be best friends
and libras and cancer make each other laugh
from my experience. Just wondering what other crabbies think of air signs? I forgot to say my x was an aqua and have a few good male aqua friends also.. Seem to gel well, is it only me or do other cancerians gel well with them too?



And another cancer replied:

quote:

I have been with two air signs for long term relationships for the last 14 years. Honestly they are A LOT of work. Air signs operate on a totally different plain that us water signs do. It's pretty simple...

Think of air and it's element. How it flows freely and easily 'goes with the flow', sort of lightly bouncing and lifting about all obstacles.

Then you've got water. We circumvent, surround, and encompass all that it within our reach; almost to a smothering degree.

It may sound dramatic. But on a lighter perspective - it makes perfect sense.

Air signs need space to live freely, to come and go as they please, and to basically live on a whim (such as an impulsive buy, or an unexpected offer too good to be true)

Us water signs have to either control - or at least be a part of - a major inertia. A sort of 'becoming'. So we tend to take on the thoughts, cares, and well being of others. We fuss over our family, our children, our lovers. We love to dote and care for, and in some many words - "surround and love" those that we love.

Air signs are much more self centered in their thinking. They are more independent in the sense that they don't think of anyone but themselves first, all others second.

We tend to thinks the opposite.

Configure this into a relationship and you get some big issues. With Air signs so self centered (mixed with insecurity) they never tend to feel 100% worthy. So these signs (esp. men) are prone to cheat. Air signs have little sense of loyalty, thus they lack sense in morals. This means that they can act out and do what they please both for selfish and insecure reasons.

BUT. Water signs are known for this as well - but in most circumstances - after they've learned that their partner isn't to be trusted.

Water signs come with loyalty, love, and adoration. Air signs express this as well, but being the element of air... it doesn't last for long.

Not to say that either side is any better than the other. Both sides can learn from each other. The hard part is that the Air sign needs freedom and doesn't take the rules so seriously... When the Water sign has loyal love and dedication at the top of their list. Air signs love the "idea" of partnership, but can often grow easily bored with the 'same routine'. (Which, by the way, can be a Water sign's most reliable way of living) Water signs are essentially "made" not for relationships - but specifically "matrimony". So in the art of marriage and life long partners


I know exactly what the person who wrote that means by that. I think that Air signs will love you and be very dedicated and loyal to you even for a long time possibly, but they are very inconstant...they could drift away from you easily. They also can be bullies since they don't take anything seriously. Not bullies, in a mean way, only in a playful way. Playful teasing, I mean. Maybe that's what the OP is experiencing? Maybe the gemini has just drifted away. As in my experience their emotions change a lot.. Or maybe the gemini is being a merciless teaser lol, and the OP mistakes that as them hiding their love/vulnerability in love?

lol damn. that is from a dxpnet thread. the tune on this forum is always the same. dont say this, dont say that, u cant say this u cant say that, ur generalizing. yadda yadda. ASTROLOGY is generalizing dude. I'm just sayin! haha. When someone says, someone with mercury opposition uranus, is blunt and likes to say shocking things. Isn't that generalizing as well? Or that venus in cancer people are clingy and loving. Isn't that also generalizing. Ay ay ay

dxpnet looks like bliss right now. I'm gonna be hangin out a lot more over there, i feel like they've really pinned down some nice sun sign generalizations i can use to my benefit with people in the future :P

You may be misinterpreting a passionate attraction on his side... for caring/affection. Like I was saying above - in my experience, when a guy keeps you at arms length - his feelings would be more so sexual.. not emotional.

Normally when a person 'cares' in an affectionate way they do things to show they care.. like for example if you were sad, they would give you a hug. If you needed something they'd run and get it for you etc..
Has he ever done things to show *affection* - rather than attraction?

I read the posts, I am married to a gemini man for 15 years. Very best kind of man I think. Yes can be cold but needs understanding. Do not take it personal, they fear losing freedom, beauty, etc.. He's been a lovely father to our child together and mine from before. I agree, the gemini will always show up to be around the ones they like, love. They have more faces than two, at least you will never be bored

Me personally, I have Gemini Sun conjunct Mercury with Venus in Cancer. When I like someone, I do want to be around them. I try to see if its mutual first before (Venus in Cancer really doesn't like rejection, more so than other signs) openly flirting or telling her I'm interested in her.

When I am dating someone I am really into, my Venus in Cancer takes over (with my Moon in Libra adding its influence) and I show my love by action. Your clothes will be ironed. I'll make sure all your shows are DVR'ed. If you need something I'll make sure you have it like yesterday. If you mention you like something in passing in a conversation totally unrelated, I'm listening and I will surprise you with it.

I talk about my Moon in Libra because it wants a reciprocation that's satisfactory. You don't have to reciprocate by doing the exact same things for me that I do for you, I just need to really feel that the way you show your love is not all talk and is genuine. If I sense its all talk and no substance, my Virgo Asc, Gemini mind, and Libra Moon will start analyzing the other person's actions to see if they are just all talk.

If I decide she's all talk and no substance, my airy planets meet with my watery Venus in Cancer and tell it the other person is full of it, my Venus in Cancer will shut down. No more doing things for her. No more taking care of her. My Cancer Venus will then ask for my airy planets to blow on out of that situation.

However, if I see her love has substance and I'm a believer of her love style, I shower her with all the love and affection she wants while doing my best to keep from smothering her lol.

Geminis are too (especially an unafflicted Gem Merc) rational to act the opposite if they like someone. We'd find that to be mentally tiring! Logic will tell us to go after the one we like in the most efficient way possible and that is by not wasting any time in letting a woman know we are interested. This way if she's not, we can move on quickly like the wind!

That also doubles as a protection mechanism as well. By letting her know we are interested asap, we are not giving our feelings a chance to develop to a point where if she rejects us, we would be hurt. If we beat around the bush and let our feelings develop without finding out if they are mutual and she rejects us, then we will feel like its our own fault as we walk away with a wounded heart lol.

Thanks for everyone's input! a_may_gemini -
I really don't see the point in getting down on myself - to feel embarrassed about my posts. I was in love and have been confused with his recent actions; wanting to hang out all the time, flirting and bubbling over with excitement when we see one another. I think my soft Cancer heart saw these as signs of lingering love, but was probably nothing more than Gemini flirt. But, you are absolutely right, it's time to move on.
See, to us Scorpio's, Gemini's are like an anomaly. We seem to be exact opposites with the way we handle emotions & I find this incredibly interesting. With my past posts, I've been trying to figure him out, piece the puzzle together - fore, I have a curious nature and he's a complicated man.
Just to clarify - this post was more an interesting subject to me. It's not really related to my current situation - I know why we're upset with one another. Just found that a lot of women were posting about this kind of Gemini behavior & was curious to see what kind of feedback I'd get on this topic.
Thanks to all opinions!

I don't behave like that... maybe i'm not a Gemini, maybe the doctors got the date wrong... ^^ even tho it's not close to any the others signs (7 June).

Well - that would be understandable if Astrology was still new/fresh, with only few years of existence and still putting things together... but this (Sun sign) it's part of the basics of astrology and we're on a astrology forum - and some of the things of which some signs are accused of are kinda ridiculous - if you take in consideration all the available descriptions released until now... as if Astrology was all about the Sun sign... and no, it's not our identity - if that was true... then the rest wouldn't matter much... there would be only 12 type of characters in this world - the Sun sign is just part of our identity - for some, even weaker than other placements from their chart (there is such thing as a weak Sun) - you can't deny it.. you still show some traits - but not that prominent as with others...

- based on some of the questions asked about Gemini - as if "rediscovered" - since "they claim that many others have noticed this..." Gemini are suppose to be some kinda of violent criminals incapable of empathy who take pleasure in hurting other people... psychopaths... the monster of the zodiac, worst sign... -_- - and this happens with other signs as well, apparently - the ones whom end-up in a similar position...
