The Good and Bad of Loving An Aquarius (7 Brutal Truths)

Loving an Aquarius is one of the most fulfilling experiences you can have. Their intriguing nature makes them some of the best partners out there.

The good, the bad, the AQUARIUS.

Looking for a woman who is truly “out of this world”? Congratulations, you’ve found her in the Aquarius woman!

The most unconventional member of the Zodiac family, Aquarius is known for being unique, unapologetically quirky, incredibly charming, highly intelligent, and a bit of a revolutionary. A deep thinker who is constantly re-inventing herself, the Aquarius woman broadens the lives of those around her with an endless stream of new ideas to explore and experiences to try.

She is truly interesting, and if you’ve managed to win her closely-guarded heart, she’ll keep you happily captivated and forever on your toes.

Generous, bravely honest, and witty as hell, she’s a woman you’ll both adore and deeply admire. But as alluring and fascinating as she is, the Aquarius woman is the most paradoxical female of the entire zodiac. Learning to navigate her eccentric ways is not for the faint of heart. But for a warm-hearted, confident man who loves a challenge, the Aquarius woman is the ultimate dream girl.

Here’s what you need to know about wooing the water-bearer:

1. She’s wicked smart.

Hands-down the biggest “smarty at the [zodiac] party”, the Aquarius female is known for her superior intellect. But what distinguishes an Aquarius mind is its unparalleled depth. She not only “thinks” about things, but she also researches them … thoroughly, from every conceivable angle (and she’s as giddy as a happy school girl while doing so).

It’s not enough for her to know about a topic on a surface level (Jeopardy facts alone do not impress her), the Aquarius woman is hungry to understand the deeper, interconnecting ‘how’ and ‘why’ of every subject that piques her interest.

As such, making love to her mind isn’t an option, it’s a requisite! An Aquarius woman NEEDS a man who can keep up with her intellectually. The back-and-forth exchange of well-thought-out ideas is incredibly arousing to her.

She will light up beautifully and sparkle with excitement if you touch her mind the right way. But if the conversation fails to genuinely stimulate her, she’ll get bored and move on to someone else quickly.

2. She gets stuck in her head (a lot).

The downside of that keen mind of hers is that the Aquarius woman is often disconnected from herself physically. Being told that she “over-thinks” things or “thinks too much” hurts her feelings deeply — she can’t help it — so she’ll refuse you access to her body until you put her mind at ease.

Because transitioning from her brain to her body is not easy for an Aquarius woman, sensuality is something often missing from her life. Help her in that pursuit by pointing out physical experiences her brain might overshadow — like that amazing breeze touching her skin or the nuances of the delicious meal you just served her.

As a fixed air sign, the Aquarius woman is often perceived as being cold, disconnected, or emotionally closed-off. She’s not. She’s just trapped in her mind much of the time (where she feels most comfortable and powerful) and she’ll almost always need some coaxing out. The man who finds this side of her worth the effort will be supremely rewarded because …

3. She’s sexually adventurous.

The Aquarius woman is incredibly curious, open-minded, and known to embrace the unconventional. This makes her particularly fun and adventurous in the bedroom (or the backseat, or outside somewhere, or … well, you get the point). She’s usually game for trying just about anything (as long as she always feels like it’s her choice).

Connecting her thoughts to the sex act is vitally important however (otherwise her mind quickly wanders off). Keep her brain and body turned on at the same time by telling her exactly what you want to do to her next as you make love. Also, a strong, firm touch captures her attention far more than a soft, lulling one.

But the real perk of sex with an Aquarius woman? Since she inhabits her physical self so rarely, there is an intensity and erotic innocence to her sexuality. Watching her discover herself (as you discover her, too) is downright hot.
