Wondering how much space to give an Aquarius man? How long should you give an Aquarius man before calling him?
If you fret over how, and when, to make the next move, you’re not alone. Aquarius men are the most elusive, surprising, and unpredictable in the zodiac. Their charming and intelligent personalities make them attractive, but their penchant for disappearing acts can frustrate the most patient women.
I’m Anna Kovach, a Relationship Astrologer with decades of experience. I’ve helped women around the world just like you to solidify their commitment with unique, independent Aquarius men. My experience has shown me a few tricks to flipping the script with an Aquarius.
Mostly, it comes down to knowing how and when to follow a No Contact Rule when things become strained.
But if you’re not convinced, here are a few things you can expect to happen when you follow a No Contact Rule with an Aquarius man after a breakup, or when he becomes distant.
1. No Contact Resets Your Perspective
One of the best benefits of going no-contact with an Aquarius man is the boost to your wellbeing. When you step back from the drama of an intense Aquarius man, you can give yourself a reset that makes all the difference between burning out and refocusing on your goals.
You may get a much needed break from anxiety and obsession if you resolve to avoid contacting your Aquarius man for a week, or even more. Aquarius men need longer breaks than any other sign. It may even take a few weeks to a month before he is really ready to chase you.
2. He Becomes Intrigued
Will an Aquarius man come back after ghosting? The answer may surprise you. The benefit of a no-contact period isn’t just for you. Your Aquarius guy can also get the kickstart he needed to chase you again. He may have just needed time away to realize how much he missed you.
When you step back and stop contacting an Aquarius man, he begins wondering what you are up to. He misses you and goes out of his way to track you down because he assumes something interesting is going on in your life that has taken your attention from him.
3. He Feels Reassured
An Aquarius man is surprisingly reassured when you stop reaching out. This isn’t because he doesn’t like you. The opposite is true. He may be madly in love with you but still fears losing his independence. But when you stop contacting him, his sense of balance and control are restored.
This is initially soothing to an Aquarius man and is a necessary step that allows him to step up his romance game and pursue you again. Will an Aquarius man regret losing you? Going quiet will make a man born under this sign feel more comfortable and in control. When you step away, your Aquarius man will become more interested in you. He assumes you are independent and won’t crowd him.
4. He Goes into “Chase Mode”
Following a No Contact Rule with an Aquarius man over text sends him into chase mode. You may be pleasantly surprised at how quickly he goes from ignoring you to sending you numerous messages when you resist the urge to contact him.
Making an Aquarius man work for your attention is not as easy as it sounds. Men born under this sign are perfectly capable of keeping themselves occupied with numerous hobbies and interests. They withdraw from relationships when their feelings become too intense and need more time than usual to decide they miss you.
If you can outlast an Aquarius man, though, it will be worth it. He will start chasing you when you avoid texting him.
5. He Wants to Commit
Nothing makes an Aquarius man suddenly want you like pulling away and waiting for him to make the next move. If you go silent, he will take you more seriously. This contradictory tactic may go against all your instincts, but it works.
A little reverse psychology with an Aquarius man goes a long way. Men born under this sign fear commitment and can be unpredictable. You can motivate him to commit to you when you are less available.
6. He Trusts You More
This may seem counterintuitive, but an Aquarius man will start to trust you more when you leave him alone. His biggest fear in relationships is that the woman he loves will want more than he can give. He panics and shuts down to avoid having any obligation or expectations.
But if you limit how much and how often you contact him, an Aquarius relaxes and feels more comfortable with you. He’ll realize you’re not out to infringe on his independence when you restrain yourself from communicating with him. He’ll lower his defenses and trust you more if you ignore him periodically.
7. He Takes a Needed Break, Then Becomes More Obsessed
Aquarius men often scare women when they shut down. But this is a normal part of the cycle Aquarius men go through when they care about someone. He needs to take a break, but his silence won’t last forever. Avoid chasing him and initiate a No Contact Rule if you want to make your Aquarius man more determined to chase you.
When your Aquarius man wants to be with you, he’ll still periodically shut down. He needs space and can become more aloof when the relationship becomes serious. If you want to make him obsessed, go quiet occasionally. He’ll enjoy the break initially because of his intense independent streak. But he will eventually miss you.
