Oh my gosh! I am dating this Gem guy who has had a history of acting somewhat indifferent towards me at times. i just figured it was him acting like a typical Gem, b/c then he would turn around and be sweet and want to spend time with me.
He went out of town to for a week to visit his best friend on the 13th, and returned on Monday. He was supposed to call me on Tuesday to tell me how his trip was, and he didnt. That Wednesday he text messaged me and apologized for not calling and said that he fell asleep b/c he was tired from the trip, and work, and that he would call me that night. Did he call me on Wednesday night??? Of course not! So, I sent him an email last night asking what was up with his strange behavior. I told him that I was not trying to smother him or pressure him into anything. i just wanted to know how he felt so we would both be on the same page. I told him that if he would prefer that we be just friends, I was completely ok with that and there would be no hard feelings. Did he respond back??? No! I know that he read the email, but he just didnt respond.
The email was very friendly and nonabrassive. I even had a few jokes in it, so he would not feel like he was being attacked. I made it so easy for him to just reply back and say that he wanted to just be friends if he felt that way. I cant believe that he did not respond. It really hurt my feelings. Even though we have only been dating for 3 months, I thought for sure that he would atleast be honest with me and let me know if his feelings have changed. I thought he would atleast give me that respect. I cant believe that he would be so mean. What should I do!?!?!?!? Help!!!!

Dear Maia,
I think you let your insecurities run away with you....
Gemguys...the ones I have known...don't deal with your negative feelings all that well...they are not "soothers" (try a Cancer for that)...and if you freak out and get emotional on him just because he went away for a week and didn't call you on the very *day* he said he would (sounds like Gem absent-mindedness to me)...then you are cramping his style .
He's probably thinking "Can't I even go away for a week without her freaking out?" He did text you on Wednesday telling you he's tired (probably the reason he didn't call that night)...and you respond by basically questioning the entire relationship...your insecurity is palpable.
I'm not trying to be mean...just reflecting on the fact that being with a Gem means dealing with uncertainty because they are changeable, and somewhat absent-minded...
My advice: stop communicating and go out and have some fun. He'll call you out of curiousity once he has reestablished himself.

Ooohhh no!!!! He will not be getting ANY unless we are in a commited relationship. Thats the beauty of it. I think by me holding it out and making him want something that he cannot have will only work in my favor - either way it goes. I am definitly not going to be physical with him!!! Especially, because I know how I am. I take that kind of stuff very seriously, if I were to do that it would only make just being friends with him harder for me. So...we wont be doing any of that!
