Being an Aries impulsiveness and emotion are the strongest motivational factors for everyday life. When everything is fine with my s/o - life is beautiful and I feel empowered to do anything. When we fight however, I don't feel like doing anything but crawl into bed and be by myself all day. This can lead me to sabotaging my own life sometimes, which leads me to feeling unhappy and consequently mad and annoyed. This again annoys my partner and a vicious circle is created..
Can anyone relate? Any recommendations on literature, tips&tricks how to stay centered?

Same thing always happens to me if I'm truly disappointed for any reason.
Only thing to really shake that drain is to find a new challenge.
Not a new relationship just a new goal or cause and get after it. It doesn't completely help but at least you can focus on something positive which will stimulate our attention and use all that energy that otherwise would be used analyzing everything you've ever done while you whine to everyone else who will listen.
Whining and laying on the couch all day feeling sorry for your self is fun too because even then we focus on ourselves and and what makes us special. Just can't stay like that too long. Too much still to claim and accomplish. Stay Up! Aries Zodiak Don

Yup, but there are 2 problems in this: first, I tend to get disappointed more often than any "regular" person, because I tend do expect too much from people or situations and second, the distraction part is easier said than done to me.. You describe an internal motivation for finding a new challenge and I don't seem to be able to overcome my sadness in an effective manner. By talking to others I can get externally motivated to get my mind off of the matter for a short while, but that's about it.
It gets really bad when I have to work or do college related stuff - I don't get anything done it's crazy and frustrating. I always admired men in the way how they can put personal bs aside and completely focus on work. I don't want to be the person, who can only function when she's happy, because romantic life won't be peaches and cream all the time.click to expand

.I used to go through this also but and still do to some degree. With my venus and mars in Aries I love to like someone and when things don't go the way I want it, it sucks the energy out of me. I have learned to minimize it at least long enough to be productive and then when I have some down time, my gem sun and Virgo rising analyzes it. Lol! The reality is, you have to find your own inner happiness....everything else is only a bandaide.

You know I've never had that problem with fighting the child-like behavior in me. I've always embraced that part of me! Nothing wrong with holding on to that child within! I feel that is what keeps the spark in my relationships alive because I'm always that curious child trying to explore with my men... because you know how child-like they can be too! And instead of being that mature woman thats always their mother if you let that child side out at least once in a while you become their spicy lover again!

@ EmotionalAries:
I hate that it has to be black or white though.. I'm the same way too, once I moved on I can never go back. So either I'm madly in love and suffering when things go bad or I start to not care at all after a (what other might consider short) while.. I wished my feelings were not either all the way on or completely off, I would like to reach stability and balance within how I feel about life. It's either all grey or it's super bright ugh![]()
I'm way past blaming others for my well-being, but our notorious "childlike behavior" comes to attack me every now and then. It's like two people are battling inside me - the young and the grown me. It takes soooo much energy to control myself, it's crazy.

Lol that's definitely true with the RIGHT men though. I've had experience with a Taurus and a Capricorn men being completely thrown off by this behavior, which made me feel stupid. You're so right however, it's best to accept, embrace and work with it, as it's a true part of us. Long as we learn to turn this behavior into spiciness instead of malicious tantrums we're goodclick to expand

.
still trying to figure it out and my 33rd birthday is this Friday! You??d think I would have a clue by now
Can only speak for myself but you might be similar, I've come to the conclusion I can??t do casual. Attachment happens quickly and I can??t date or relate to insensitive men. At all. There is no point and it would be a waste of time. So it??s important to control sex drive and emotions to weather the wait until you meet a good partner. That??s my weakness, I get a bit overheated and passionate and meet someone and then get attached hahaha. It??s all that Aries fire I guess! I'm now just working on improving my emotions, soul, and body. I play sports, started lifting weights and am pampering myself (nice hair style , get manicures and pedicures, revamp wardrobe, going on exotic holiday next week). Aries is a bit of a vain sign and rejection and heartbreak can hit the self-esteem hard.
JustBlaze said it well??_ a new challenge helps a lot. It??s the same with troubles at work, with difficult friends and family. Aries can get very overwhelmed and :??( thrash about and make a drama.
I don??t know maybe other signs particularly the guys have good dating advice for headstrong aries girls?
Hey we have the same Sun/Moon!
We Aries we like challenges and being winners. We are very competitive. Use that to your advantage. Look at dating as a game. The winner gets a lot in the end. What is the game you say? Well at least in dating it is he who cares the least gets to drive the train... and the more of a roller coaster you put them through the more fun they will have
I'm not saying to play mind games or to lead people on. No.
I'm saying be yourself but unpredictable.
How do you play unpredictable and still be yourself you might ask? It goes back to being not readily available because you got your own damn life to live. You love yourself too much to settle for less so that is why you have to make sure that the man you are dating will fight for you. If he doesn't... move on. Simple as that.
You let him fight for you by not always being there. Let him wonder of how you feel for him. Let him guess. Becauseclick to expand

Yeah. He seems pretty consistent with how he acts with his friends, but with me, one hour he'll be ignoring me, the next clinging to me, then griping to me about something, then ignoring me, then all over me...he is all over the place most days.click to expand
