Aquarius is the fixed-air sign. They are progressive, liberal 'thinkers' who also tend to hold onto their thoughts and ideals with tenacity. (The fixed influence) They are generally more comfortable with a friendly love partnership where they feel secure enough to continue pursuing their many varied interests. They are hard to pin down and even harder to get into a solid commitment but once there, that fixed influence makes them loyal and trustworthy companions.
Aquarian doesn't judge people by 'what' they have rather by their principals and actions. Aquarians require someone pretty secure within themselves as they are inherently self motivated and need the freedom to pursue their latest ideal or whim. Yet they can be focused and dedicated to a relationship, especially if they feel accepted and understood.
They delight...in delighting and they regale in having a companion who is eager to explore the world of thought and possibilities with them. Freedom fighters with a shared cause build a bond that the Aquarian will guard with strength and conviction. They are also tolerant, lacking in jealousy or possessiveness and will over-look and understand all kinds of human follies and mistakes from their partner.
Once they are hurt however, their emotions go off with a flip of the switch that does not ever....go back on. Coldness is the opposite of Aquarians enchanting friendship/commitment.
Aquarius Sexuality
When caught in the 'mood' they are explorative, frisky and playful. They take obvious delight in the attention their partner gives them. They can be extremely self conscious about their bodies or their sexuality or completely uninhibited and sometimes both.
The bedroom becomes a playground to further solidify the bond of friendship that the Aquarian needs in their life and they are delightful companions when they feel good about the union and about themselves
The Long Term Story
Lots of open mindedness, freedom to pursue their interests and constant input to the friendship are the building blocks for maintaining a long term relationship with an Aquarian.
Remember that they are the rebels of the zodiac and if they feel they are being controlled or ignored their defense can be to automatically rebel against any incoming input from their partner. They jump wholeheartedly into their latest cause but can do about faces so suddenly it takes ones breath away.
