So I never believed in star sign stuff honestly. Like really? Planets tell me who to love? But after my last bad breakup, Sarah dared me to try anything new. That Aquarius girl’s always experimenting, man. Anyway, point is, here’s what actually happened when I tried this Virgo guy + Aquarius girl love guide thing.
First Step: Facing My Cringe
I bought that overpriced ebook ’bout Virgo-Aquarius secrets. Felt dumb clicking checkout, let’s be real. Started reading on my beat-up couch Sunday night. Immediately rolled my eyes hard. “Aquarius needs freedom, Virgo needs structure”? Groundbreaking.
Putting Nonsense Into Practice
Okay fine, Tuesday I tried the first tip. Didn’t bug Sarah when she vanished for 3 days writing her weird sci-fi podcast scripts – total Aquarius stuff. Normally I’d text “u alive??” six times. Let her breathe. And guess what? She actually called ME first Thursday, super excited about her alien plot twist. Huh.
- Experiment: Reserved Virgo planning vs her spontaneous thirst for adventure.
- Action: Planned Tuesday taco night BUT kept Saturday wide open for whatever random junk she’d drag me into.
- Result: She loved the “surprise space” and still got her taco fix. Balance? Weirdly worked.
The Real Awkward Part
Biggest challenge? Emotions. Virgos wanna fix things. Aquarians live in clouds. When Sarah cried over that dying plant? I launched into soil PH levels lecture. She zoned out painting its pot purple mid-convo. Finally learned: give solutions ONLY if she asks. Otherwise just sit there feeling useless. Took practice. Lots.
Surprise Win: Embracing The Chaos
Started using her randomness against her – Virgo style. Made spreadsheet tracking sudden hobby switches (astrology, underwater basket weaving… lasted 2 weeks). Showed her stats. She cracked up. Now we joke about “Month 7 hobby prediction: llama farming?” Actually connect over weirdness.
Is It Magic? Nah.
Still work. Still annoy each other sometimes. That whole “unspoken understanding” crap? Took me cooking her favorite ramen WHILE she ranted about Mars colonization at 1AM. But now? Yeah okay, maybe stars hint at something. Mostly it’s showing up messy and trying this stuff.
Anyway. Would I buy that ebook again? No. But cleaning up spilled kombucha together last night laughing? Worth the nonsense.
