Well, you guys can argue all you want about what his intentions are but I honestly do not think I am a doormat to him. That's ridiculous. I don't think people are that black and white. I also don't think he would ever use me after the multiple intense conversations we have had regarding how he hurt me in the past. He sends me hearts, cuddles me, etc. etc. Also, I did gain some courage and ended up texting him and invited him to a show tomorrow night. He said he can't go because he is going to Europe for work tomorrow at 6 for a few weeks. I knew he was going, he had told me before, I just forgot it was this week. Anyway, so I got brave again and I said well what about tonight? And he said he is having dinner with his parents "for a bit". I took the "for a bit" as an implication that he could hang out after, so I told him to let me know if he wants to meet up later and he said okay! I feel pretty good about that and I'm proud of myself for doing it finally. Thanks for everyone's input. IP: Logged |

That's a booty call. Who wouldn't come? And after that, he is probably going on vacation with someone else, or free to be with someone else. How old are you, BTW? You know what? Whatever. I am wasting my time here, like everyone who tried to tell you did. Sorry for intruding. Best wishes to you!IP: Logged |

jerks come in all shapes, sizes and signs. And the airy ones can do lots of nice things too because they are social.As an aqua stellium who has known several aquas, I can tell that you never have to question where you stand with us. If you do, we are not that into you. And as busy as we are, we make time to make that person feel special. Uranus is exalted in scorpio and we are similar to scorps in that. An aqua who loves you will make it known that you are one in a million. I'll leave it at that.

Lol that's a booty call? We were literally making plans this morning at like 10am.. but okay. I'm sorry you're cynical. And he's not going on vacation... it is for his work, which I know for a fact.. Anyway, thanks for trying to give me advice. But I realize now that writing down the situation to strangers on the internet doesn't really work because it doesn't really convey the reality. I have been friends with him for over 10 years now, I think I know he's not a jerk at this point.

You are not going to lose anyone who sincerely likes you, if you are yourself, rather than trying to figure out the right moves to keep them interested. IP: Logged |

There is plenty of people who did not respond to the thread in the fashion she has but you talk back to her and not to those other people and focused on her, next time ignore that person who is projecting their own wounds onto your situation and don't feed him or her.. At the end of the day *I feel is always better to take that chance bc you will be able to say you did your part and tried and you would have that satisfaction, the satisfaction of knowing you were not a coward and did not let pride get in the way of truly knowing or getting what you want out of fear. Courage is knowing when to ignore fear. I am glad you guys are making plans and got to see each other before he left. IP: Logged |

Something to keep in mind. Any thoughts about him here are only based on what you've told us. There's a whole lot of tone of voice, facial expressions, and body language that we have missing. I'd say just take a shot. Draw your boundaries (so that you don't end up played) but go after what you want.

Thanks. Yeah, I only responded to her because I felt like she was really irrationally angry for some reason about the situation and she seemed to be attacking people who didn't agree with her. But anyways, I agree with you. I am happy I took the chance. Even if he had flat out said no, I'd still be glad I did it because if I did not do it, I'd be sitting here wondering what he would say. Thanks for the input  IP: Logged |

Are you telling someone to ignore another user because you don't like their opinion? I can see you have a moderator badge there. How dare you? Stick to your own opinions and promote those with your own arguments, and don't try to shine by bashing other users and theirs. And do your mod job! It's not this! And read those damn rules! Gossiping and talking about a third person and instigating to contempt or whatever you're doing is a NO here! IP: Logged |

This is my last post too. You answered your own questions and doubts right there. You have been friends. That's it. No one has tried to paint him a jerk, but you came for advice and based on what you told us, people just tried to open your eyes. It is ultimately your choice. I just hope you aren't going to be stuck to a friend another 10 more years while there are plenty of other men out there who could actually love you and have a loving relationship with you. My sincerely best wishes.

Exactly! I was trying to say that in one of my last few responses but you articulated it much better than I could have. Thanks for the input.

Well yeah, we have been friends but only started dating 4 years ago. Although he said he was in love with me when we first became friends but I rejected him and he didn't actually even speak to me for 3 years because of the rejection. But then we became friends again and his feelings came back and I decided to give him a chance. IP: Logged |

Since you've been friends for so long, take it easy. I fell for a friend once. I told her how I felt and she politely rejected me. But I took it like a big boy and we continued to be friends no problem without awkwardness or anything. Just stay relaxed.

The moon will be full in Aqua tomorrow, so that will help you get more clarity about this Aqua guy. If you really want to find out how he feels about you, it's now or never. Good luck! IP: Logged |

The astrologers sites say it falls in the first house for Aquas but on Astro.com,, it shows it falls in the person's 10th house. It's just the transiting moon, right?IP: Logged |

Tomorrow at 3:43am PCT the moon will be full at 7 degrees of Aquarius. 7 degrees can be considered the first decanate of Aquarius. Is that what you call "house"? House has a different meaning. But here is a website that gives information about decans/decanates: http://www.horoscopeswithin.com/decans.php
When it comes to houses, we're talking about different areas of an astrological chart. Each chart has 12 houses, though some of them may be intercepted. Look at your chart to see where is 7 degrees of Aquarius and you will know in which house of your chart the full moon is falling. Hope that answers your question. IP: Logged |

No, I know it's falling on my natal moon and my partner's 10th house and that's our conjunction but I don't know why the youtube astrologers say it's falling in Aqua's 1st when it's in my partner's 10th. That's what I don't get. The astro.com transit chart for this aqua has transiting moon in the 10th.IP: Logged |

^^^ This is a type of astrology that uses the sun sign as the first house. It is a way to make prediction using the sun as the starting point, as though it was the rising sign. There is a name for it but it escapes me right now. Most astrological advices you find in newspapers or magazines astro columns use this type of astrology, the sun as the first house, that's why if I am reading them, I always check out the advice given for my rising sign also. ETA: I personally don't care for that type of astrology because I don't find it very accurate, but I did know a British astrologer who had a column in a NY daily some 20 some years ago and he was amazing at it, everything he used to say about my sun sign was eerily DEAD ON. He was using a special type of system. Sorry I forgot his name, he died many years ago. IP: Logged |

OK. Fine. So do you think you have the answer to the questions you asked regarding the house or not? I just wanted to know if I wasted my time explaining...
