Aquarian Traits
This topic was created in the Aquarius forum by damien on Tuesday, May 6, 2008 and has 44 replies.
You read alot of this-and-that about what it is to be an aquarius, you know? Like how you act or how you look or how you feel etc. Well, I am going to list some traits and I would like to know if you can relate, and you all should do the same. It could be interesting.
- I am tall and thin with sharp facial features
- Somewhat vacant expression. Sort of vague and possibly a bit gloomy
- Very interested in poetry, pyschology, and music (this one I read about often as being typical aquarian interests)
- Prone to being silent / reflective in any situation
- NEED to have alone time to think about things. Myself mostly but not in an incredibly selfish way, I guess
- Very accepting of others
- A bit irascible but always kind unless provoked
- I am not "cold" or "emotionless" but tend to deal with peoples problems intellectually and tell them what I think in a very blunt manner
- Can be one of the most shy or most outgoing people
- Feel often that others are not on my level or on the same page as me
- Not easily influenced
- Can easily influence others
- A bit flighty
- Hard to get ahold of (so I am told)
- I get aggrivated with people who need too much approval (virgo / cancer)
- Self assured but still a bit insecure just like anybody else
- Not concerned about what others think about me / Will say what I feel despite whether it is inappropriate or may offend people. Hey, it's the truth, man.
- Somewhat serious but knows how to enjoy myself
- Not into constantly cracking jokes / Would rather have a real conversation
- Sarcasm which is often over the heads of others
- Usually cannot enjoy sex with someone if I am not feeling a mental connection or not intellectually stimulated
Okay, this is getting too long but you get the idea. I'm interested in knowing if you can relate to this. Add to it too, if you feel so inclined

I feel a bit good and bad about being a prototype but this is all just simple truth. My best friend is also an aquarius and we have so many things in common that it is amazing at times. I really appreciate his mind and thats just super important to me. There are all types of intelligence but when somebody has a certain way of expressing it that is similar to yours it seems like something very special.
The sex thing can go either way. If it's going to be long term than I can't think the person is a fool.

- Sarcasm which is often over the heads of others---OH HELL YES! WE HAVE OUR OWN LANGUAGE WHEN IT COMES TO 'SARCASM"
- Usually cannot enjoy sex with someone if I am not feeling a mental connection or not intellectually stimulated----YEPPERS!
I'D SAY 99% OF THIS WAS TRUE FOR ME!

Id like to remain undefined.
Thank You.
Thank You.
I get aggrivated with people who need too much approval (virgo / cancer)
wow do virgo really need approval or do we just like to be appreciated were givers so a simple thank you goes a long way with us.
Funny this is how aquas always want to ask do i look fat in this does this look right blah blah blah. Every aqua i know insecurities run deep.Aquas try to act all high and might when deep down you fear rejection so thats why you reject first or try to act like you dont care.
I find it funny how you make virgos sound so needed i guarantee you were the most independent sign.

I've never met an Aqua who SAID they were high & mighty. The only people that seem this about Aquas are the OUTSIDERS. And I've def. never met an Aqua who said they were perfect, had no faults & wasn't insecure about certain things. EVER & I would know because I am one. EVERYONE fears rejection. And I quite frankly don't see a darn thing wrong with fearing rejection as an Aqua, considering the rest of the world does. EVERYONE has insecurities at some point in life & more than just Aquas have negative opinions about Virgos. And on top of that, I was not the one to say that Virgos needed approval. The question I read asked if Aquas get aggravated with those who need too much approval all the time & in my response I didn't say NARE word about a Virgo or any other sign. If anything, I think the AVERAGE person gets annoyed with this, not just Aquas. And yes, Aquas have been known to reject first, but we don't just do it for our health. We only reject when we have a reason to & we take pride in this & understand that what we consider strengths might be considered weakness to others but that has no influence on how we see OURSELVES. We see OURSELVES through our own eyes & don't necessarily define ourselves as a whole by what others see because if you haven't noticed, there are flaws & negative things in every sign.

Everyone always gets their chance to say both the negatives & positives they feel about each sign from their own experiences & from their own beliefs but the minute an Aqua chimes in to give their opinion, people jump on us, & make us out to be the bad guys. Hey, we just do what everybody else. Look around, Aquas were not the FIRST & def. are not the LAST people to have certain negative things to say about Aquas. And it works both ways. Virgos have some pretty bad experiences with Aquas too. But the keyword was EXPERIENCE, meaning everybody's experience differs. The Virgos I know in my life & in my world might be different than the Virgos you know & deal with in YOUR life. The word "ME" and the word "YOUR" have 2 different defintions in the dictionary for a reason
Look around, Aquas were not the FIRST & def. are not the LAST people to have certain negative things to say about *Virgos*
Really, I find it sometimes so irritating that people don't want to LISTEN TO ME. I say something, and I feel like I'm talking to the wall. May I state billion times, rationally, logically what I really feel or think, there will still be a load of people who'll interpret my behaviour as according to their own values. Why am I saying this? 'Cause when I finally get people to understand what I mean, those friends don't even think about me being a superior person or coming across as such. I rarely seek to be the center of attention in itself. If I do it, it's usually done with a purpouse of trying to prove or suggest something.
I think it's that aquarian manner of expression which can look clumsy, insensitive, inconsiderate and gloomy at the same time, a mixture which frightens others away before they even start talking with me seriously, lol.
----------------
Exactly! It would be different if the intention for us expression our true opiniosn & beliefs was to build superiority over others, but I find it amazing that so many people believe so & conjur it up in their OWN heads that we are this way, yet then again this kind of insult is only pointed as us normally by those who don't know us very well. People always find a problem with those who are generaly blunt, expressive & proud of who they are---well only the people who LACK these things are the FIRST ones to point it out in us. But hey, you know what they say...The people that hate something about you may love you for the very SAME reason

Oh I feel this way all the time. When others ask me for advice, sometimes they expect straight forward & direct answers that get straight to the point & it's not that we Aquas haven't learned how to do this because when we need to be short & sweet, we are & do it very well. But it still comes down to the "what people hate about you may be the same thing they love about you" theory...People are always pointing out to me that my responses to questions or threads are always so lengthy & I always shrug my shoulders and say SO WHAT. I'm not talking just to hear myself talk & half of the time we make things so lengthy, it's because expressing ourselves is who we are & it's what we do & when we do it, we do it THOROUGHLY. We still answer the same question everyone else does, only we put more of OURSELVES into what we're writing...that's why Aquas make great journalists & psychologists & counselors. The same people that can't stand this about us are the same people who prescribe weekly to those great magazine articles written by who? Probably an Aqua

As a Cancer (can't speak for Virgos), what some Aquas simply do not understand or "perceive" is the personal touch that the Cancer and other signs, especially water signs, are naturally interested in. Just like an aqua's "aloofness" doesn't necessarily mean they are uninterested, a cancer's (or virgos?) need to connect on a personal level does not necessarily mean they "want approval"? They simply believe in that human touch...it goes both ways...they are not doing it for approval but to connect and try to understand the other person and their feelings.
Does that make sense to y'all?
---------------
Oh I completely understand that. I think the person that posted the question actually had Virgos & Cancers in mind when asking the question, but when I answered it, I agreed that I get aggitated by people IN GENERAL that are always emotionally needy---I wasn't answering the question with Virgos & Cancers on my mind. And I think what happend is, the poster asked that question & wanted in "overall" and "in general" type responses, but when they added in the part about Virgos & Cancers, people automatically assumed that everyone's answers were linked directly to how they feel about both signs & in my case, that wasn't true. And what I meant by emotionally needy people, is not the average person who needs someone to be there for them because I'd be just plain ignorant if I pretended like no one needed anybody now a days, because we all need eachother. But, when I saw the question I immediately started thinking about the people who are constantly asking for advice but rarely take it or rarely get the point or rarely actually LISTEN to the answer they claim they're seeking. We all have a friend like that, the kind that just "NEVER LISTENS, but yet always ASKS"

My scorpio bf mother-virgo, his sister-virgo,and ex-wife-virgo, All of them love DRAMA! Tell them what they want to hear and they're satisfied. I stay my distance for that reason.

It's cool, man. Don't freak out about it because it wasn't an attack. Obviously everybody needs some level of approval from others or else we would all become insensitive and misanthropic fools. It wasn't an attack as I have many virgo and cancer friends but what I was trying to say was that I usually tend to notice that these types of people often need approval. Approval also comes in many forms. I haven't specified what I meant by this, and I probably don't need to. In my experience it just becomes annoying at some point but usually when I'm just not into having to reinforce anybodies anything. You know? I am not the most secure person in the universe. I said this already. But I do have a level of self assurance. I understand everybody is their own person and that projecting yourself onto others is more or less a stupid move.
I love my cancer and virgo friends. It's just that sometimes I get aggrivated by having to verbalize things as if it really matters that much anyway.

I hid that post coz I can't ****in read today lol. Must be this stupid cold i've got. Sorry!
We are at least subconsciously aware that every shoe may not go on everybody's foot

Very true but ONLY Aquas understand this concept the most when it comes to ourselves. Other people see our immediate craving to help others, give advice & put our two cents in, & some people immediately take offense & assume we're always putting our hearts into situations because we think we are better OR higher than others. But when we're giving the advice, our motivation & intention on helping others is completely the opposite of that. Aquas KNOW that how we see things is not always how others will see them but that's the reason we're Aquas & their another sign. We're supposed to be different. I Can't stress enough that alot of people seem to hate Aquas for something & end up deep down loving them for the very SAME reason. And the reason I believe Aquas would make good lawyers goes way beyond our need for expressing ourselves & our beliefs. BUT we are good at seeking the TRUTH (the number one intent for a lawyer during a trial), we have good observation & memorization skills, we like to get to the bottom of things before we finally give in or give up, & not to mention, Aquas have an incredible opinion stubborness about them that makes for good lawyers in a courtroom.

Isn't that worth at least refraining yourself from passing a premature judgement against a person, esp. if that person may not think anything bad of you?
-----------------------------
Yep, but it seems like only Aqua minds think this DEEP into the picture. I think the types of people who rarely ask for advice themselves (might be know-it-alls) are the ones who utterly ask an Aqua for advice & then randomly start having almost a chip on their shoulder against us when we tell them right or put things in ways they never thought of---sort of a little intimidation. And I think this kind of thing is more common with these types of people versus the people who don't hestitate asking for advice or for help (because they're not afraid to say "I DON'T KNOW). And plus, it's all about deliverance too. I do believe that some Aquas (especially when we're extremely educated on a particular topic) have a way of delivering our advice in kind of a "Duhh! How could you not know that!?" type of tone & sometimes I do believe we are insensitive to how we word certain things we say or how we speak them. But the truth is, deep down, we don't see it that way. We don't see it as trying to belitte someone or show superiority over them just because they don't know, but Aquas talk the way we think. In OUR minds, the truth is the truth & when we can tell that other people have given this same person advice, we decide to just get it over with & tell it like it is without guilt...And this happens, one because we figure hey, if our friend didn't listen to the other 5 people they got advice from, then maybe we should give our advice in a more direct & blunt way so that they'll FINALLY get the point. Any time you're giving someone the straight truth (for THEIR benefit, not yours) it's always a heartbreaker when they start feeling intimidated & inferior to us. Hell, we're blunt about everything else---if that's the message we really wanted to get across (that we're more higher & mightier than everyone else, we dam sure would say it in a heartbeat)
-----------------------------
Yep, but it seems like only Aqua minds think this DEEP into the picture. I think the types of people who rarely ask for advice themselves (might be know-it-alls) are the ones who utterly ask an Aqua for advice & then randomly start having almost a chip on their shoulder against us when we tell them right or put things in ways they never thought of---sort of a little intimidation. And I think this kind of thing is more common with these types of people versus the people who don't hestitate asking for advice or for help (because they're not afraid to say "I DON'T KNOW). And plus, it's all about deliverance too. I do believe that some Aquas (especially when we're extremely educated on a particular topic) have a way of delivering our advice in kind of a "Duhh! How could you not know that!?" type of tone & sometimes I do believe we are insensitive to how we word certain things we say or how we speak them. But the truth is, deep down, we don't see it that way. We don't see it as trying to belitte someone or show superiority over them just because they don't know, but Aquas talk the way we think. In OUR minds, the truth is the truth & when we can tell that other people have given this same person advice, we decide to just get it over with & tell it like it is without guilt...And this happens, one because we figure hey, if our friend didn't listen to the other 5 people they got advice from, then maybe we should give our advice in a more direct & blunt way so that they'll FINALLY get the point.

It's like the parent-and-child theory. I was sooo dam mad at my parents for a long time when I was growing up because they weren't like other "cool" parents who let their children go out & stay out at all times of the hour. When I wanted something REALLY bad (that most children with good parents weren't aloud to do),I'd be so hurt & assume that my parents were just trying to "ruin my fun." But as I got older, I realized that they placed certain restrictions on me for MY protection & for MY benefit even though it took me almost 13 years to see it that way---well I really didn't see it that way until I had my own kids. Back then, we all knew our parents loved us in many ways but when they said "NO" when we wanted them to say YES, we as kids instantly assumed that they didn't love us in "that particular area". But NOW, looking back I now know that my own stubborness & lack of control & understanding caused me to feel that way for such a long time. I think the same goes for Aquas. When we give advice, we give it with the intent of being a good friend & telling it like it is----and we figure that hey, if they ask for the truth, who are we to HALF-step it...We're either going to tell it like it is (or like how we see it) or not speak at all & instead of appreciating our humanitarian side they immediately try to find evil in the real intentions behind us caring so much for others
Aquas are very intellectually arrogant a lot of the time its not just that we dont understand you You are not always right ! Why do you have to always feel you have something to explain or prove as if the rest of us are akk little children ? ITS ALWAYS WE DONT UNDERSTAND YOU OR WE DONT "GET" YOU WELL WHY IS IT NEVER YOU MAY BE WRONG OR YOU DONT UNDERSTAND ? Simple your EGO ! sorry but you guys are not some sages get over it you have plently of holes in your thinking and also you fail to relate emotionally or practically . Stop acting like sages and we wont have problems
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oh I'm wrong about alot of things & I don't know everything. And trust me, it wasn't hard for me to admit that at all because the average human is. So there, now you can't say that Aquas never admit that they might be wrong. But, when I feel that I'm right about something, I stand by my beliefs & my opinions & I'm proud of it. And don't get it twisted, I know when I'm talking to a child & when I'm talking to an adult & I know the difference. What we say & how we want what we say to come across is up to us but once we say it, how YOU guys take it is OUT OF OUR CONTROL. And just because we are natural humanitarians & feel as if we need to express ourselves doesn't mean that we're doing it because we have to feel "smarter" or "superior" to others. And the reason Aquas debate this very same subject so hard is because we all know that our natural drive to want to express & share what we know is not deeply rooted in snobbishness & intelligence superiority. I've never met an Aqua who came out & said, " I AM BETTER THAN YOU" or "I KNOW MORE THAN YOU" Or "I WILL TALK DOWN TO YOU BECAUSE YOU ARE LIKE A CHILD WHO DOESN'T KNOW ANYTHING." The only people I hear those words from are OTHERS who feel this way about us deep down & end up blaiming us for believing or saying these words when in fact it was really YOU who said them.

I also find it quite amusing that air signs prance around claiming they are the most intelligent or logical and that nobody is on your "level" and yet some of the greatest scientists have been water signs and earth signs! Thomas edison took aseveral thousand tries to invent his light bulb . Nikola telsa cancer was inventing modern things left and right ! THomas edison never liked him much hehe i wonder why ? Tesla coil is the famous byproduct of his genius .
-------------------------------------------------------
Sweety, look around. It's no different than hearing about earth signs & how they tend to be more calm & earthy. They didn't learn that information out of their a*s. You want to talk about scientists so much, well do your research. It wasn't ME or any other Aqua who came up with the theory that air signs are the most logical & intelligent, but indeed this judgment came from the very same astromers & scientists who looked at the FACTS (rather they liked them or not---and without any judgement). And hey, we can sit here & name scientist all day. I can sit here & name scientists from EVERY sign but what point is that proving? Show me a book or website that says "Only AIR signs are intelligent & logical" ........(I'm waiting). No one said earth & water signs were just complete idiots that didn't know anything, YOU basically said that & to cover up how YOU really feel, you try to blaim it on Aquas or other Air signs who in reality think the complete opposite of how you do on the same exact subject.

I love aquas and the advice they give dont get me wrong krysreen.
The comment i made was referring to the fact that damien said that virgos and cancers seem to always need approval. It really ticked me off because i hear this rubbish all the time. People mistake appreciation for approval, like i said a simple thank you goes a long way. No virgo expect another human to do what we do. We are true givers and dont expect nothing but love,respect and aprreciation.
As for aquas the only think i hateeeeeeeeeeeeeeee is the fact that you can never admitt when your wrong . I despice the fact you aquas try to justify even aspect of a certian behavior. Why the fcuk cant you just be wrong, and even then you say some thing like i was wrong because blah blah blah you said this blah and it cause me to react in this certain matter blah .
Virgos are hard head but i promise you we can admitt to wrongful doing.

This thread got way off topic but I suppose that is to be expected.
I'm not sure where you guys get this thing where you think aquarians cant admit when they're wrong. That confuses me a little bit just because I know when I am wrong and I know when I am right and I know when to agree to disagree. Also, I can easily admit when I am wrong without feeling an pangs of weirdness about it. It's really no problem, man.
Keep in mind the aquarius motto is "I know." Usually we do due to simple observation. It's not being "high and mighty" or whatever this nonsense is. I don't talk to people as if they were children and I am righting their wrong. I talk the way that I think. I put it out there in a somewhat matter-of-fact way because that is how I feel about it, and if anyone takes it the wrong way than that has little to do with me and more to do with that person.

Not for nothing but if you hear this rubbish all of the time than what does that mean? Stereotypes exist for a reason, right? It's not all fiction, my friend. You also mentioned the thank you thing before but it's mostly irrelevant when it comes to what I am talking about. I love and respect and even appreciate all of my virgo and cancer friends. They aren't asking me to thank them.

No offense taken
. but don't you think that we Aquas feel the same way about certain things. Alot of people take our confidence in our own opinions & decisions as being arrogant & know-it-alls who can NEVER admit when we're wrong & that's not the case at all. And you know what, when it all comes down to it, some people will ALWAYS see what you consider just appreciation as always needing approval & it's no different with us. No matter what I say or how hard I defend Aquas on the "admit we're wrong" thing, you're opinion of us is fixed & as long as you see it that way, you'll always speak about us in that way. But when it's the other way around, people expect for us to be the nice guys & the people that don't speak things the way WE see them. You said Virgos are true givers & don't expect anything in return BUT love, respect & appreciation and you know what I say to that? Aquas are natural humanitarians, we are always trying to be there for others or spread the knowledge. We're like authors. There's never just ONE book in the whole world on just ONE subject. We might write 7 books about sex because we want the knowledge WE know to be spread around the world...but that doesn't mean that we're insulting the other authors who wrote about the same topic & it doesn't mean that because we wrote our OWN book that we're trying to insult the intelligence of the author who wrote the first book about sex. We don't understand how people get so offensive when we spread our opinions & advice to other (especially since we have good intentions for doing so). Yes, I do agree that our DELIVERY can be quite blunt & crude sometimes but that doesn't change the core intention (what REALLY matters) of WHY we gave the advice in the first place

Very well said. Stereo types do exist for a reason and it is NOT Aquas who started the rumor that Cancers & Virgos tend to be too demanding on their friends. But when one Aqua agrees with that theory, the Virgos tend to categorize ALL Aquas as feeling that way. It seems like we are all in the same boat. We're all trying to defend certain traits in our sign that we feel are NOT true. The same way you'll always believe that Aquas can't admit we're wrong is the same way some Aquas will always feel that Cancers & Virgos are cry babies...So in the end, what is all the debating worth? The answer: It's not. What I may see as your weakness might be something you interpret as your own strength & hey that's okay but I take pride in what my eyes see & what my mind tells me & until I see otherwise, I have every right to stand by what my own eyes & my own experiences see. And you probably feel the same way when it comes to your own interpretation of Aquas. It works the same way both sides. The next time you get so offended at OUR interpretation of you is the time when you should remember how you directly made a bold statement about us that WE all disagreed with. And hey, Virgos were not the first ones to say this "we can't admit when we're wrong" stuff just like Aquas and air signs weren't the first ones to say that Virgos & Cancers constantly need reassurance from others. It works both ways

I put it out there in a somewhat matter-of-fact way because that is how I feel about it, and if anyone takes it the wrong way than that has little to do with me and more to do with that person.
-----------------------------------
Some people are more concerned with HOW we say things & with the strong confidence we have in our responses to things that they lose focus on the true INTENTION of why we gave our opinions in the first place. I don't think Aquas debate that our delivery of advice can seem a little insensible, but I think we all agree that other's beliefs for our INTENTIONS on why we are this way is all wrong. We want people to understand that even when we "give it to you straight" we are doing so because we'd prefer to be given advice straight from others. When we are quick to put our 2 cents into something, it's because it's a natural urge that we have to express ourselves because we too experience those same types of people. Once again, I've NEVER heard an Aqua say that they are NEVER wrong. The ONLY people I hear say that are others when referring to us. And people seem to forget that when 2 people are disagreeing on something, in order for 1 person to assume that the other person won't admit their wrong means the other person in the arguement is having the SAME problem admitting that we might be right & they might be wrong. So either way it goes, with both parties, the struggle is about which person feels right (in which most people feel THEY are right).
An Aqua who doesn't feel guilt in offending others by how we approach or word things is different than not being able to admit a fault. Half of the time we form our opinion about something, we've already taken into consideration both sides & all the other factors that help us to make up our mind. So yes, when we are challenged, & when others try to force us to have the same beliefs WE have, it is almost as if they are doing the same thing they are accusing US of doing & when we don't budge or give in to them, THEN that's when they try to use that "you can't ever admit when you're wrong" junk

When we know we're wrong, we know it & when we FEEL (and not necessarily KNOW) we're wrong, we still stick by our own decisions and opinions. And even then, when we Aquas know we're wrong we don't always admit it publically & in front of everybody. All you need to know is that deep down inside Aquas know right from wrong just like everybody else. Don't make us out to be inhuman people who don't have the same common sense like everybody else. It's no different than when I hear about how Aquas are so cold & unemotional. To YOU, we may appear that way just because we don't go out of our way to let others see our hurt & our tears. But in the end, all you need to know is that, YES the tears & emotions ARE there, but just aren't for you to see. That's how we chose to do things but just because you don't get front row seats to the show doesn't mean the feelings, emotions & tears don't exist. OH THEY EXIST.
.......I MEANT TO SAY "& when we FEEL (and not necessarily KNOW) we're right, we still stick by our own decisions and opinions.
My Aquarius man and I di an experiment because I told him I noticed that he cannot go to a social gathering without having women literally hanging off him. He would stand there and compliment and flatter women and laugh a lot. He could not seem to enjoy a social gathering unless he was the center of the women's attention while I (the Virgo woman) moved about the room talking with both men and women.
We agreed that the next three events he would actually find a half dozen different men and engage them in real conversation on topics of some substance and spend time by my side sort of being my "window dressing".
He did this and we talked about it after the third event. He admitted he has a need for attention and that it flatters his EGO when women hang off him and gather around him at a social event. He said he has a hard time admitting that aloud but that he realizes it is true. He said it was hard work concentrating on the actual conversations he had with the men, who did not hang on his every word and who debated his opinions with him! He also said he found it hard to stand y me and see others so focused on ME and my intellect. LOL, we laughed together as he admitted he was JEALOUS.
So there...lol, an Aquarius man jealous of the attention a Virgo woman gets at a social event.
He's a sweetie though and we will grow together. He is back to his typical social event behavior, though not as much. He gets into his "space" thing, though too...which gets him into trouble, as you may find in another post.

- Very accepting of others---WE ACCEPT OTHERS THAT ARE ATLEAST IN THE SAME CHAPTER OF US, IF NOT THE SAME PAGE...BUT IT'S HARD FOR US TO ADAPT TO PEOPLE WHO AREN'T EVEN IN THE BOOK
THAT was funny...forget who posted that, but good one.
I decided to get on Aqua posts as my moon is in Aqua.
I couldnt figure out some things about why I did what I did until this lady asked me what my moon sign was (I didnt know)
she then told me about my Aqua moon.
I am sorta tall, thin, clear blue eyes (so they tell me) but another trait of Aqua's are the eyes...
All the other stuff is pretty true & I suppose that is why I am a Cancer but attract Lib's like flies....mmmmm, Libra....

Exactly. The question comes down to whether people are more concerned with the fact that emotions in Aquas exist (even though they don't get to see them often) Or if people are more concerned & focused on the fact that THEY themselves normally don't get the front row seats to the show. We never doubted that we like to be right & that we like to validate our own arguements, BUT what we do debate is the theory that Aquas can NEVER admit when we're wrong & that's simply not true. YES, we do admit when we're wrong, & even if we don't have it written on our foreheads, it simply becomes not good enough for others to believe this JUST because we don't always hold up signs saying "OK PEOPLE! I'M WRONG!" And you know what, that annoyance with us is valid & fine. BUT don't tell us that we sub-consciously can't admit when we're wrong because we have the same common sense & ability to know right from wrong in many situations just like the average adult.

I think what's pissing so many people off is that we respond to the negative energy with positivity, confidence & humor. When they call us investigative, we smile & say SO WHAT! When they call us unemotional, we say NO, we just didn't pick YOU to show our emotions to (there's a difference). When they call us rebellious, we say SOMEBODY'S GOTTA BE THE DIFFERENT ONE. When they call us snobs, we say HEY, IF I DON'T BELIEVE IN & GIVE CREDIT TO MY OWN INTELLIGENCE WHO WILL?
Seems like we're pissing people off because we respond in the way people least expect. Every time we call Pisces cry babies, the responses become flooded with mad & sad smiley faces & bitter words & not to mention lashing out. When we point out flaws in Virgos, we get responses filled with everything BUT "SO WHAT" and I think alot of people hate that. AWWW WELP!

"seems like majority of Aquas aren't into sex per se"
SAY WHAAAAAT!?!?!
SAY WHAAAAAT!?!?!
Luckly, there will always be dudes here, to crush our dreams, for we've learnt that dude is always a dude...

When we get our hearts broken by some "guy" it only leads us one step closer to what we deserve: a MAN. Once we see something as uneccessary or a threat to our well-being, anything remotely close to or anything that shows similar characteristics to taht "bull" we previously experienced all becomes the same.

Are we likely to settle down, or do we prefer to stay single and "play" forever?

That is a pretty general question. How can the fact that we are Aqua (moon for me) determine our likelihood for marriage? It cant. The signs are a vague guideline and upbringing and individuality along with day to day experiences can only determine your ability to find someone right for you and marry.

But we are a bit of perfectionists, which is fine with me. We do have a capacity for learning from our mistakes, and won't let things such as sexual lust, jealousy and intense desires have power over us. In a similar way, I think we have a capacity for healing, and won't let bitterness and bigotry against the other sex stand in our way of pursuing happiness the way we envision it

Exactly. We only distance ourselves or block out those things that we already KNOW (mostly for a fact) that can only harm or hurt us. If we get lied to by someone we've only known for 1 week, we're likely to distance ourselves from that person...but not because we have unrealistic goals or because we're MAN or WOMEN-HATERS but instead because we use our logic+ past experience & TRY our bests to no ever go down the same path twice. If an Aqua finds love or has love standing right in front of them, we won't run, we'll go for it. But we make sure that we ONLY go for the things we know deep down will be an advantage to us in the LONG RUN (not just that mushy short-term stuff)& some people just have a natural instinct for being able to decipher out these "He's worthy" or "he's not worthy" encounters...Others may take that as "judging a book by it's cover, and therefore missing out on alot of things" but oh no, we put enough energy into everything until they give us a reason to stop the flow of our energy. We never just STOP giving out that energy without having a valid reason. Aquas let everyone start out at 0. And it's up to THEM to make it up to 100. And then there's others who let everyone start out at 100 & the only option they have is to stay at 100 or work their way down until they're down to zero

I'll try to illustrate the difference as in, other women will first fall in love with you, then later nag, we'll fall in love with you, keep our emotions in check, try to listen to your side and therefore prevent unnecessary hurts and emotional scenes, and later we won't nag. For we'll only blame ourselves for letting some horrible traits go unnoticed. But for this we need partners who don't want us as girlfriends/friends/lovers/fiancees/wives for selfish, opportunistic reasons.
When all is said and done, I still believe a developed aqua has a lot to give in love, however we may be labeled. Maybe it's just me as an individual...

Well said. That is very true. Nuff' said

I am an Aquawoman who wants peaceful coexistence with the world around me, happy to take the role of an observer, spectator, listener and facilitator. I want the simplest explanation of the issue, analyze problem by recognizing what is the bottomline of this argument and decide to move away from the problem if it is too small and solvable by people around it or I like to find quick solution to problem.
I am married to a Saggi Journalist guy. After 15 years of meeting different guys, thank goodness God heard me and this guy only took 3 months of courting before I accept his proposal for steady relationship. We have long distance relationship during this period, he worked in another country and I stayed behind where we originally met and just exchange letters between us. I felt this is not good I should have easy access of him, or I would rather end the relationship and move on. I did not want to develop an obsessive and clingy attitude and worsen my jealousy so I planned to find a job in the country where he is working.
In short, I found what I'm looking for and we decided to take it to the next level which is marriage. Well after seven months of long distance relationship, I married the guy who is a good friend to me, a sexual partner who is sensitive to my needs and an intelligent person who keeps our relationship long lasting and fulfilling. He is the person who gives a lot and I am a taker most of the time. Inspite of all his good qualities, I still find myself looking for "me" or "alone" time once in a while. I like eating by myself in a restaurant once in while. I love to enjoy the food and at the same time make a call to him to say hi. I always bring home with me some of the food I ordered. It is just my way of sharing that moment to him.
After 17 years of marriage, our relationship is like what it was during our first year of marriage, because we communicate all the time and he always try to give his best arguments all the time.

Wow, I guess Im not the "average" Aquarian except when I'm being extremely stubborn, tactless, and detached. My Aquarian friends say Im way to sensitive and my Pisces friends tell me that everything they say to me hurts my feelings........
I can agree with everything you've listed! I thought I was reading about myself when I read this post. And like others have said, even though this description kind of puts Aquas into a category of being "this" or "that" way, I also cannot deny that the description DOES describe my personality to a tee.
1. My facial expressions often reflect whatever I'm thinking. I always have sort of a blank or void (gloomy) look on my face that often confuses others.
2.I am VERY blunt in how I'm dealing with other's problems. I feel the need to be the head-strong friend who will give you the real & RAW deal. The structure behind all of my help is all intellectual but HOW I give my opinions is always in a direct & straight-forward manner. I can't help it.
3. I am NOT easily influenced, but yet CAN easily influence others. And I've noticed that some of my friends have caught on to that & let this bother them about me.
4. And yes! I am very hard to get ahold of. Sure, I'm just as busy as everyone else, but I am very selective in who I call back or whose conversation I chose to entertain for the day. Alot of people often complain that they can never get ahold of me. I have my spurts. One minute, I'm always calling you back in 4 minutes instead of 5. And the next month you'll keep getting my voicemail even when I'm NOT busy. It's weird.
5. And the sarcasm one was very true. I use sarcasm sooo much & most people don't even realize it. I have my own way of insulting someone without them even really noticing it. But that comes from me having mastered the art of verbal manipulation.

- I am tall and thin with sharp facial features -- True dat.

- I get aggrivated with people who need too much approval (virgo / cancer) -- ugh. yeah.
- Self assured but still a bit insecure just like anybody else -- Yep!
- Not concerned about what others think about me / Will say what I feel despite whether it is inappropriate or may offend people. Hey, it's the truth, man. -- It gets me in trouble some times. ahah.
