Aphrodite..:>I don't think I agree with the first question, how to seduce an Aqua because I wouldn't. I have too much respect for someone who just wants a friend. Aquas make good friends, you don't seduce a friend. I like the same, so I find the idea of being seduced a little low. Turning someone on is different. A relationship is a friendship to me, you have to hold up your end. Romance really doesn't help, it just creates confusion. I would not try and seduce an Aqua at all, and they are not good at seduction. Just be a friend and see how it goes but make sure both of you hold up your end and don't get confused.

Hi Natasha,I leapt off topic and am referring to Aquarians in general, men and women. Not on how to seduce a friend. Apologies for being spacey and not clueing in more specifically  Hmm, I didn't even have the idea of seduction on my mind. LOL. Cheers, Aphrodite IP: Logged |

Natasha Thanks for the introduction of a new topic, by the way. Speaking for myself, I find it more satisfying that I am friends with the person I am dating, than just someone I turn on.  On the other hand, there have been times when I was attracted to a friend. I didn't have the courage to say anything to them. One of them now, Carlos, lives in Texas  Oh well. Hmm, another speaking for myself, I don't put a value on attraction between anybody: friends, gays and bisexuals, paramours, co-workers, age differences etc. It's how you treat each other, and how that particular person feels about it that counts. Life is too short to generalize anyway. I like to make each moment one of its own. Aquarius on the 8th  Cheers! Aphrodite IP: Logged |

oxy, my point is this. you should do your business how you KNOW it should be done. That includes how you shoudl treat people. W was simply batty over you and you hurt him trust me we've all heard the horror stories. Point being you could have conducted yourself differently. Take it as constructive criticism. and heres a word of warning, if you treat teh people aroudn you hwo you apparently treated W, one day you will wake up very cold and very alone to find that your friends and loved ones gone becasue you pushed them away. And that is afeeling that i wish on no person.IP: Logged |

Your point, scat, comes from a very, very one-sided view.I was never anything but honest and I did everything I could to put honesty on the table. I did everything I could to make him get help for his probelms and to help him the best ways I knew how when it came to his life..so if that makes me a horrible person, then so be it. All I've ever wanted were good things for him. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR NOT FEELING A CERTAIN WAY. And I am certainly not responsible for anyone else's happiness. That is for each of us to make choices on, learn from, and grow from. Staying bitter will only cause the bitter party to be alone, not me.  I was open and honest and never held back. But I was also made to be someone's crutch...tell me an easy way of letting someone down when they depend soley on you?
Trust me, you do not know HALF of the truth of any of this. I lost a good friend and it doesn't feel good. How would you feel if I sat here and made asinine judgements on you, based soley on the stories I've heard of you? Trust me, you wouldn't be happy. And I mean that literally. So maybe you guys need to get over it b/c you do not have any call to judge my life as you don't even know me. Not only that, you don't even know true stories about me. Hey, I'm sure you're a good guy. Proxy is happy with you and she seems to be nothing less than a great gal. And if you want to be a good friend to him, you can do so by not picking a battle for him. Listen to him, talk to him, give him encouragement and a shoulder to lean on. That's what friends do. I am here, like everyone else, to learn about astrology, chat, ask questions, contribute. With RESPECT. NOT to fight. And certainly not to be bullied for every little word I say. If I wanted that, I'd reminisce about junior high. So we can agree to disagree. Otherwise we have nothing to say to each other. I would prefer the first option. IP: Logged |

Aphrodite I agree, I do not value attraction because I think it's just that, being drawn to another person. It happens once and then friendship happens. Friendship and good humour are important values to me. I do not judge anyone for their beliefs and I find there is enough to value in a person without trying to make it romantic, enough quirks and I have a hard time just understanding those. I feel comfortable going to events with a man without any romance going on. I like friends who value that and they are there for a long time in my life. My platonic friends know they last while my lovers don't.There is so much more challenge and growth in a friendship. A marriage or partnership is a friendship first, IMO. I can't believe it when someone questions my friendship with a man and asks how it can be unromantic. It's a choice we make together, friends do that. I have had feelings for male friends of mine in the past but then they take me to an off the wall movie that I can't stand and I get over it. Now I don't need to be that optimistic because I am not worried. Oscar Wilde said: True friends stab you in the front. I like that because it means they tell you to your face what you need to change. I love when my friends criticize me, LOL. Natasha IP: Logged |

Famous Quotes about Friendship:"When I find myself fading, I close my eyes and realize my friends are my energy."
-Anon. "The road to a friend's house is never long."
-Danish proverb "Friendship is the hardest thing in the world to explain. It's not something you learn in school. But if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven't learned anything."
-Muhammad Ali "A friendship can weather most things and thrive in thin soil; but it needs a little mulch of letters and phone calls and small, silly presents every so often - just to save it from drying out completely."
-Pam Brown "Friends are treasures."
-Horace Bruns "An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind."
-Buddha "The only way to have a friend is to be one."
-Ralph Waldo Emerson "He who has a thousand friends
Has not a friend to spare,
While he who has one enemy
Shall meet him everywhere."
-Ralph Waldo Emerson "A friend is one who knows you and loves you just the same."
-Elbert Hubbard "The real test of friendship is: can you literally do nothing with the other person? Can you enjoy those moments of life that are utterly simple?"
-Eugene Kennedy "We call that person who has lost his father, an orphan; and a widower that man who has lost his wife. But that man who has known the immense unhappiness of losing a friend, by what name do we call him? Here every language is silent and holds its peace in impotence."
-Joseph Roux "Be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence. True friendship is a plant of slow grow, and must undergo and withstand the shocks of adversity before it is entitled to the appellation."
-George Washington "True friends stab you in the front."
-Oscar Wilde Natasha

This is not the place for rumors, gossip, or character assassination. Please, be so kind as to keep private matters just that--private. Such matters should be restricted to e-mail, not a public bulletin board, and definitely not a metaphysical community dedicated to Linda. I do not want to read about it, and I gather from the e-mail responses I am receiving that neither do most of the other Knowflakes.  ------------------

Hi Natasha,Thanks for these friendship quotes. I liked them all. Particularly the one where letters, phone calls, and small little presents are given to maintain the friendship during distant times. These I do, also because I find them fun Take care  Aphrodite IP: Logged |

My love is an aquarius, and he definitely bears a resemblance (frontal view) to Dopey from Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, lol, but his profile is the most beautiful work of art I've ever seen. (And trust me, I'm not the only one who's noticed.) He is the best lover, listener, friend, teacher, student, partner (and the list could go on and on) that I've ever known. He has his moments of aloofness, but I don't take it personally. He always comes back, usually with an amazing insight about life, himself, me, us, politics, science, religion, etc ... We totally respect each other's space, but we love to hang out with each other, even if there's nothing to do but be silent in each other's presence. He is protective without being possesive, and just a teeny tiny bit jealous, which is just enough to be flattering. He is the smartest person I've ever met, and he's also the most affectionate. He can be serious or silly, ecstatic or morose, but we're very tolerant and patient of each other's moods. When he gets angry, he usually tries to talk things out but if I'm too upset, he'll go for a walk and wait until I cool off and vice versa. And when we make love, it's as mental, emotional, and spiritual as it is physical. He's generous and giving, and very creative, but expects the same in return, which makes me very happy! And, in fact, he told me he loved me the first time he felt it. He's open-minded and firm in his beliefs (which some might think is stubborn, but which I tend to think is admirable), and he definitely loves to be right, but he's the first to admit when he's wrong and he definitely believes that to live we must let others live. I couldn't be happier, and neither could he. He told me so himself.
We were acquaintances for about 6 years before we became friends, and then it was just a few weeks before we became romantically involved. Although I must admit that at first I thought he didn't like me because he was very teasing (like a kindergardener), he pursued me (as a friend) until I began to suspect that he liked me, and then I just blurted out that I really liked him. He was shocked for a moment, and remained very still and quiet, before he said he liked me too. And then he kissed me. The rest is the future, and rings on our fingers.

im an aquarian,with aquarian rising, virgo moon.. im in love with this guy who has saggi sun and aqua moon...
i am so in love with him, im an aqua so i'll tell you what turns me on.
aquarians bascially like cute things...
they love to talk talk talk... so lots intelligence required, and lots of flirting..
basically, they like subtle hints here and there to know if you're still 'theirs'. other wise they dont cling you or nag you...
and my aries venus kind of balances it...

Alrighty... questions, questions I'm not going into great detail about my personal life Those who have seen previous posts will wonder what the?! Anyway... Here's an example of a question I have. Aqua: I like you
Me: You do? With a bashful expression
Aqua: Yeah, I do.
Me: Silence
Aqua: Don't you like me?
Me: Well... yeah
Aqua: Do you like me or not?
Me: I said yeah
Aqua: I don't think you do
Me: I told you I did. Quit asking me all these questions.
Aqua: Why? I'm just asking you a simple question... either yes or no.
Me: Look... I told you yeah... you are embarrassing me.
Aqua: Embarrassing you? Why's that?
Me: Change the subject
Aqua: Why are you being so mean?
Me: I'm not being mean! I told you I liked you. What else do you want me to say?
Aqua: Smiling... nothing. I like you, I can't help it. So... my question... what the heck was he wanting me to say?! Also... Aqua sun/Aries moon... loves eye contact... is way more of a touchy feeler than I am. So, Aquas aren't all physically aloof.

Duh! He wanted you to say "I like you" flat out. See? He calmed down when you finally mentioned it at the end of the conversation.Gosh, that conversation sounds eerily familiar. IP: Logged |

Yeah, I would say that he wanted to actually hear you say straight out, "I like you, too." Or something similar. The pause, "Well ... yeah" probably is what got him to keep pushing the issue. Doesn't sound like you're too sure when you put it that way, even if you are, you know?[Aquarians can be pretty candid, almost as bad (or good) as Sagittarians, and tend to prefer the same from others.] But they usually do it to test your limits, and for reassurance. I mean, he did come out and tell you he liked you, which is kind of putting himself out on an emotional limb (not something too comfortable for any air sign), so he probably wanted an equal reply. See how he didn't really get how you were embarassed about saying it? They (not all, but some) don't always understand the girlish reactions to those types of things (blushing, fidgeting, coyness, and what not) because they can be interpreted too many ways. They want it flat out on the table, in all honesty. LOL. Pretty nitpicky, huh? But then again, it isn't something you'll hear these guys say often or without meaning it (usually), so be glad to get it anyway you can. At least you know he cared about how you felt and that your reply was important to him, because if he didn't, he wouldn't have kept bothering you about it. IP: Logged |

Ahhh... so it was my saying it, without actually saying it that did it? This is where an Aqua and a Scorpio differ. I "was" telling him I liked him from the start. Just in "my" own way. Those direct questions like that get me a little nervous The blushing is from being asked such a direct, out of the blue question like that Thanks for the help IP: Logged |

Lol, no problem. My ex is a scorpio, so believe me I understand the "saying it without saying it" technique. I had to learn to pay attention to verbal nuances and to read between the lines with him about everything (he had multiple scorp influences). He wasn't particularly thrilled about my blunt and very direct speech, either. A real learning experience for me, to be sure, lol. It was a pleasant shock when my aquarius beau first approached me with complete candidness, and I found it easy to adjust to his manner of speech (me being a Sag with Aquarius rising is why, I guess).IP: Logged |

Wow - everything you're all writing about is painfully true! I've recently cut it off with an Aquarian male (27) who after 4-1/2 months of an extremely close relationship, decided that his goals would be too difficult for us to face a future together.I'm a 30-yr. old Aquarian myself and don't like being tied down, however he sucked me right in and all that talk of "you're good for now" ended up getting me down. He never said he loved me but his actions indicated a deeper emotion than he's ever felt. I'm heart-broken but don't want to have to "train" someone how to be. Anyway, let's just say, you need to play their game and they will ultimately be hooked. Good luck! They're worth it in the end (so I'm told)

OOoooh!!! This is a good thread I just WISH i'd read it earlier!EVERYTHING you guys say about your aquarian relations sounds like my current situation - I'm 'involved' with an Aquarian man (I say 'involved' coz that's what if feels like!!)... It drives me to absolute distraction because we break up, then make up (usually he comes round about a week after he dumps me to tell me he 'misses' me) - he says i 'smother' him, that i'm TOO affectionate, that IM a control freak... then after all that he says he loves me and i'm his 'best friend'!! Bloody hell!! I'm sure only people who have been in this aquarian situation know what i'm talking about!! The thing that makes it worse is I'm a Taurus Moon, Sun and Rising - directly opposite his Scorpio Moon and Rising - we find each other so incredibly attractive and sexy (Yes, he told me this after he finished telling me i need to give him 'space'!) that is it like what i read earlier - we are like magnets - when we are apart we only want to be together, then when we are together we only want to be apart! I guess me having an Aquarius MC and Uranus opposite my Sun, Moon, Asc, Mer, Ven, Mar, and Chiron makes it obvious why i find myself in this relationship... Great thread and thanx for your help
LOL
