How To Know if an Aqua is Committed
This topic was created in the Aquarius forum by truecap on Saturday, May 18, 2013 and has 6 replies.
Again, borrowed from Astrotwins' Love Zodiac
The Aquarius man's path to commitment is a delicate dance. Getting there is hell, but once you're in, it's great. He's petrified about losing his freedom and he may regard relationships as potential threats to his autonomy. You'll need to endure a long, exploratory phase, as he evaluates, like a diligent research scientist, whether a relationship will compromise his independence.
Aquarius is a people please, and he's been known to sacrifice his needs to make others happy, only to later escape through the back door. The more aloof and self-contained you are, the more he's likely to chase you. Prepare to hit "snooze" on your biological clock again and again. Don't corner him with ultimatums. Out of the blue he may make his decision that you're the One.
Here's why:
HE'S FOUND HIS PATH AND YOU FIT SMOOTHLY:
Aquarius is a fixed sign and he's actually really set in his ways. Unlike other signs, he's not able to just orbit around your life. He needs his own solar system, but you can be a shining celestial body rotating happily on your own axis.
HE GETS UNCOMFORTABLY SAPPY AROUND YOU:
Once, he was pushing your buttons and teasing you for being the slightest bit sentimental. Now, he's staring at you with soulful, bassett hound eyes and musing about how you "complete" him.
HE DECLARES HIS LOVE:
Words are important to an aquarius man and when he's finally chosen you as the One, he may announce it with a bit of fan fare.
HE MAKES AN ELABORATE MEAL:
A really good, intense one-on-one evening at his house with significant conversation, chit chat and get to know each other in a completely safe environment.

HE LAUNCHES A SERIES OF CONVERSATIONS ABOUT THE "POTENTIAL RELATIONSHIP"
Although he may be sampling your wares every day, Aquarius likes to try before he buys. He wants to be sure you're not expecting some conventional, picket-fence relationship, so he'll discuss it in theory before he puts it into practice.
HE BECOMES PROTECTIVE:
Even though he favors egalitarian relationships, suddenly he's cooking and opening every door, treating you like a
Goddess. Enjoy it! He likes to play the knight in shining armor - but only if milady can take care of herself. Warning: If you start acting like a full-on damsel in distress, he'll flee. He may be playing the chivalrous gent, but it's more like he's acting out a Dungeons and Dragons, Renaissance Fair role - playing fantasy. He doesn't really want to have to rescue you. He just wants to storm the castle and sweep you off your feet.
HE TESTS YOU BY SUDDENLY "NEEDING SPACE".
Uh-oh, it's another Aquarian romantic science experiment! He's testing you to see how you react. The less you freak out, the more likely he is to respect, admire and desire you. In Men are Mars, Women are from Venus, John Gray asserts that men are like rubber bands- they need to stretch and pull away in order to spring back to their desire for intimacy. Anyone dating an Aquarius man should read up on Gray's theory.
HE TREATS YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY LIKE GOL
The Aquarius man largely defines himself by the groups with which he's affiliated. If he pursues membership in these "clubs," he wants to be part of your life for the long haul.
Okay, guys, accurate or not?

Yeah, I'd say so. I didn't elope with someone just because I knew her mom wouldn't like it.
Yea sounds pretty right to me actually lol.
