I have been on this site many times looking for answers through other's situations but I wanted to post my own question. I have an aquarius male that I have fallen in love with. When we first met we seemed to be on the same page. He actively pursued me and made it clear that he wanted to be with me. The problem is we had a misunderstanding and he began thinking that I didn't feel the same way. I tried to explain to him that he was wrong and that he is who I wanted to be with but it's like he wasn't hearing me. Well we stopped talking for a while but since I couldnt get him off my mind, I started contacting him again. Since then I have been the main one initiating things. We've started a FWB relationship and seem to be stuck in this. He tells me he cares about which I believe he does. If I ever need anything he's there and I really appreciate it but I want things the way they were when we first met. Like I said I do most of the initiating but one day out of the blue he sends me a text saying he thinks we should do more things together, something other than sex and that he really likes me but he's never acted on it. Could it be that he really meant that? It was so random that he sent the text. And if he meant it, how do I coax him to put his idea into action?
eh, maybe he's waiting for you to act on it. why not just ask him out for some non-fwb activities sometime and see how he responds?
why would you get into a fwb relationship with someone you believe you're in love with anyway? not judging, but i doubt being his organic sex doll is all that fulfilling.
It just sort of happend, I didn't plan on a fwb relationship. I've never done the casual sex thing before and i'm learning it's not a good situation for me. But anyway, I have initiated things for us to do but they never happen. He's a work a holic and it seems that is what he would prefer to do. Maybe I should let this relationship die.

If he's opened up and said he wants to do more than just the sex deal... he means it.
It's a brave thing for an Aquarian to say things like that for fear of rejection so he put himself out on a vulnerable limb. Many times I read about Aquas being aloof and distant etc. yes, we are... it's called "self preservation" to guard from being hurt. If he's said he wants more, then he wants more and he'll open up to you when he feels it's safe. To disregard his feelings or comments will make him disappear into "aloofdom"again.
Go for it! Good luck.
wow, I also have been searching this site for answers to a Aqua man, as well, I can not belive how similar my story is to yours. After I started to date mine over a year ago, he confessed he loved me early on and I don't beleive it was said just to get me into bed. Instead of answering however, that is exacting what I did. (I guess my way of showing I was fond of him too) Anyway, it's been over a year of FWB, not something I normally do either, and somehow he does it in a way where I don't feel like a booty call even though that is what it looks like. Recently things have progrossed I think, a little. I've met a few important familiy members and most of the people who are closest to him in his life. He has told me he's in love with me and doesn't want to be with out me. The work aholic and dating thing has still not ironed itself out yet, however, as he doesn't think he can do both well. I don't know, but I'm glad I stuck around for him, as I'd rather have him in my life than not. It's just not probaly ever going to be a conventional relationship and you know, I've had enough of those that didn't work so I just may have found true happiness. Let me know how yours progreses.
