The early stages of flirting, courtship, and relationships with an Aquarius man can be a little confusing and hard to read. Aquarius men are known to be highly social, friendly, and warm-hearted people. They are kind and affectionate to everyone they meet, so it can be difficult to determine whether they like you as a friend, or they are trying to pursue something more.
Below we will discuss the telltale signs an Aquarius man likes you. By learning about these signs and actions, you can better pinpoint whether you should make your move, or that he’s just not that into you.
The Typical Signs
An Aquarius man is someone who demonstrates great levels of friendship, trust, pride, balance, intellect, and independence. In some instances, these traits are enhanced when he develops feelings for another individual. In other ways, you might see some slight changes in these traits.
Keep an eye out for these enhanced or differentiated character traits in the Aquarius man that you have your heart set on.
A Deep Fascination
Aquarius men are deeply eccentric characters. They are intelligent, brilliant, and interested in things that not many people delve into. You probably have already noticed his passion for a few main topics or ideas, because he discusses them frequently and knows everything about them.
Just like he knows every detail about these topics and hobbies when an Aquarius man becomes romantically interested in you, he will strive to learn every detail. You may find him suddenly asking you all sorts of questions about your interests, your job, your hobbies, and your family. He will want to know what you like and what you dislike. He’ll make an extra effort to learn more about your passions so that he can better discuss them with you.
If you go out to bars or restaurants frequently, he will likely learn your favorite drinks and foods quickly, and he’ll let you know that he remembered. While you were spending time together before, you may find he has increased interest in carving out time for you. This is especially important given how social he is. Some of this might look like more one-on-one time, while it could also mean making sure you’re joining the group who’s going out that evening.
He will also become more enthralled by your physical appearance. You may notice him looking at you more often, and he might even be as bold as to send more compliments your way. Your mind and your body will become his top priority, and he will focus entirely on getting to know you.
The Desire to Share
If you have spent any amount of time around an Aquarius, you have probably already heard some of his deep musings, his wild dreams, and his eccentric ideas. While his brilliant mind comes up with many interesting and odd things, and he loves to share them with others, he will go out of his way to share them with you.
It’s one thing to mention his ideas to a group of friends, but it’s an entirely different thing to talk with you one-on-one to share the intimate details of his thoughts and concepts. Rather than talking to hear himself talk or to impress everyone, he will be talking to you because he truly wants you to understand his unique mind. He wants to make you a part of the ideas that he has.
This may lead from simply discussing ideas to bringing you along with him on adventures and journeys. He might ask you to explore a wooded area, venture to an art museum, or even go on a road trip. He will start to share his experiences with you, making sure you can be there and be a part of them.
He Will Flirt
Flirting is a typical sign for most people that there’s some form of attraction going on. However, being an intellectual and a winning conversationalist, there will be a distinction between an Aquarius’ flirting and his normal communication.
His brilliant mind makes it easy to talk to anyone, but this same strength proves to be a weakness in areas of flirting. In order to flirt with someone, an Aquarius has to build up the courage to do so. Meaning, if he decided to try to flirt with you, he probably really likes you.
You might notice this flirting at first because while he was once smooth and confident, he now seems a little timid and awkward. But don’t worry – he’ll get the hang of it. If you start flirting back, he will regain his confidence and will be able to wrap his intellectual brain around the concept a little more.
Just know that it took a lot for him to flirt with you, so be sure to cut him a little slack if he’s not that great at it.
He Takes You to Movies
This may seem like an odd thing to mention, but the Aquarius sign is known for their love of a good movie. It may be one of their favorite hobbies; perhaps they have a membership at their local movie theater or an extensive DVD collection. They also probably subscribe to various streaming services.
Whatever floats their boat, if they likely you, they are sure to want to share that with you. An Aquarius man’s passion for film plays a big role in his life, so it will be important to him that you experience it alongside him.
If an Aquarius man has invited you to see a movie, it could be a sign that he’s really into you. Of course, not every single Aquarius man will be a big movie buff, but there’s a chance he has a strong passion or interesting hobby that he will want to share with the one he admires most.
Compatibility
Compatibility between certain signs can play a significant role in whether or not someone will express interest in you. Some signs have the upper hand because they are naturally more compatible with an Aquarius than others. Here are the most compatible signs for an Aquarius.
Gemini
A Gemini would be an excellent match for an Aquarius man. As generally independent people, Geminis need a partner who won’t hold them back. The Aquarius man is the perfect person for this due to their belief in freedom and privacy within a relationship.
At the same time, the Gemini will be able to understand an Aquarius’ mind and out-there ideas better than anyone else. Geminis tend to be unique in their own sense, which will be captivating and fascinating to an Aquarius man. A Gemini can truly surprise an Aquarius, while a Gemini will be willing and happy to follow the Aquarius man wherever his free spirit takes him.
The Aquarius man is also someone who admires anyone who has a strong set of values. While a Gemini can’t exactly relate to holding onto strong values, they can understand that an Aquarius feels the need to. On top of that, they share the same passion for intellect and can have lengthy, in-depth conversations with one another on a wide range of topics.
Gemini and Aquarius pairings have very healthy sex lives. They both can easily be stimulated by intellect and simple conversation, but they both enjoy a good physical interaction. Both signs have a bit of a wild side, but an Aquarius man will take the lead and show a Gemini what it’s like to truly express themselves physically.
Leo
The physical and emotional connection between an Aquarius and a Leo is simply undeniable. The sexual relationship between these two signs represents a struggle of sorts, but one that leads to the best of both worlds. This relationship combines warmth and passion with insecurities and power struggles.
The Leo and the Aquarius are the definitions of opposites attracting. While the Aquarius man desires to be independent and free, Leo is viewed as the king of the Zodiac with an authoritative aura. In some ways, this could make a relationship seem impossible. However, these two signs use their opposites to pull them together like magnets.
Communication comes easy between these two signs. Not only do they both possess high levels of intellect, but they are both looked to at various times in their lives as some kind of hero. Together, these two are an unstoppable force for anything they put their combined minds and efforts towards.
Emotionally, a Leo can provide everything an Aquarius man needs in his life. Because they are seen as opposites, they are perfectly fine with giving the other their space to shine. There’s no fight for the spotlight due to this understanding, which makes for a mutually beneficial relationship.
Plus, Leos tend to have such warmth when they are in love that they are able to help an Aquarius better share and understand his feelings. While an Aquarius might hide his a little longer, the warmth of a Leo pulls them out in the gentlest of ways.
Sagittarius
A relationship between an Aquarius and a Sagittarius can work out very nicely because it often appears at first as a friendship. In fact, from the outside looking in, many people might mistake a couple in a romantic relationship for two old friends.
Sexually, an Aquarius and a Sagittarius are similar in that they both enjoy having fun in the bedroom and trying new things. This can make for an exciting sex life that will not soon become boring and will ultimately be an asset in their relationship.
However, while the sexual aspect will be great, this couple might have some struggles with intimacy. A Sagittarius changes its mind a lot, while an Aquarius man tends to stay the course, holding true to his values and core beliefs. The good news is that their emotional bond and intimacy are never stagnant, and the constant on and off cycle can often have each of these individuals viewing the other as their perfect match.
These two individuals will also have excellent communication skills, which is helpful across all areas of life and relationships. They often have so many different interests and activities in common, allowing them to constantly find joy and excitement in their relationship. They never run out of things to talk about and will always have a connection in this way. Just be careful; these two strong-willed, intelligent, and deeply thoughtful individuals can quickly turn a dinner table discussion into a heated debate.
Though an Aquarius man is likely to respect any kind of values that another individual has without judgment, he is likely to have values and morals similar to the Sagittarius. Both of these sign value freedom, and they also value the ability to stretch their minds. The Aquarius man is also great at being honest, while a Sagittarius significantly values honesty in a relationship.
While neither of these signs is particularly emotional, a Sagittarius can fall in and out of love quickly and often. This ability to move fast and understand deep emotions will benefit them when trying to keep pace with an Aquarius partner.
He’s All Yours
All of the signs above are excellent ways to recognize when an Aquarius man is interested in you as more than just a friend. While it’s true that some signs might have an easier time hooking an Aquarius man, it helps all of us to know exactly what he values and what he feels is important in a relationship.
The hardest part of starting a new relationship is trying to figure out whether the other person is as interested in you as you are in them. Learning the telltale signs via the Zodiac will prove to be just the tool you need to get a solid grip on the situation.
Do a little research on the sign you’re interested in and see if you can come up with some framework to guide your romance. Along with signs of interest, you may also see some good insight on attraction, loyalty, and future development.
