How to date an Aquarius
By Patty Olmschenk
"The sign of Aquarius is symbolized by the water bearer. In much the same way that the water bearer brings that precious liquid as a gift, Aquarians shower the world with their thoughts and new ideas. Luckily for Aquarians (and the rest of us), they are at a near-genius level, so their minds churn out some amazing things. Their thought process is also inventive and original.." -Unknown
So you met this great person who takes life by the horns. You overheard them talking to their friends about their impending birthday. You're in luck! You've found yourself a real-live Aquarian to ask out. Got the guts? Go for it. My only advice is...
Be Prepared
- Aquarians are highly verbal and mentally active, so any activities that engage your date are best.
- Keep in mind that the water sign tends to be a bit unattached and airy, so don't worry, they really are listening.
Take the plunge
- If you've taken enough initiative to know that your date is an Aquarius, then it's certain that you know your sign as well. Start by looking at the compatibility between the two.
- Consider what you've just learned about your potential date, and apply it to a brilliant evening.
- Take your Aquarian friend to that dinner date for work that you've been dreading. They love meeting new people and are bound to reflect positively on you with their charm and grace.
- Remember to keep them engaged in the conversation but don't spring anything too heavy on them too soon. They are freedom-loving creatures that take flight when the word "commitment" is thrown out too quickly.
Everything go well on the first date?
Consider sending a card or letter to your new friend, they will be impressed by a little creativity on your part. Don't have enough "Romeo" in you? See the side bar for some inspiration.
But remember
Everyone is different. Just because someone is a certain sign, doesn't mean they are anything like the text book reads. Don't let someone's sign discourage you.
"I don't believe in astrology. But then I'm an Aquarius, and Aquarians don't believe in astrology."
-James R. F. Quirk
