Spinoff-Dealing with an Aries man

The Girl

Well-Known Member
Ok Country Gal got me to thinking about my new friend:grin:. What are you ladies experiences with Aries men?
 
They are seemingly arrogant and will make you believe they have ***-holish tendencies. Usually, this is correct.

However, once you get to know them you discover they are really very private and value discreetness and not having their business all over the place. They are not as wild as they portray. In fact, the Aries that I have dealt with are actually pretty shy despite the whole being a fire sign thing.

They like the chase. It's okay to play a little hard to get. They prefer it. Resist the urge to just give in to them immediately, even if you want them in the worst way. Throw yourself at them and they lose interest.
(I don't have time for this ****. If I want you I tell you and you do what you will with it. That's probably why I've never had a relationship with an Aries work out.)

They appreciate a pretty face, but it won't keep them. Compatibility is important, as well as being able to hold a conversation. As one Aries told me, "There are only so many positions I can put you in. Eventually, I'll want to talk about politics or gun control."

They don't believe in leading you on. They will let you know when the relationship is a lost cause, or when they want to bail out for another reason. They may still sleep with you after it's over, but they make no pretense about the sex being anything other than sex. It won't bring them back.

They despise clingy women that won't let them breathe due to jealousy, or loneliness, lack of her own friends, etc. They like to play the knight in shining armor, don't get me wrong. Innocent and seemingly sweet women turn them on. But don't be completely dependent, either.

Leave them alone when they want to be left alone.

This is all based on my personal experiences. I'm married to a Taurus, but the only men ever in my 23 years that have approached me and not the other way round have been Aries.

It has never worked out because I can't change my emotional nature(I'm a Cancer.). I've become less clingy and more aloof in my old age, but emotionally I'm still the same. Arrogant and aloof men turn me on, but I can't tolerate it on more than a sexual level.

But Lawd...can they lay some pipe...:look: So I hear...I was a nun until I fell in love and left my calling for marriage...:look::yawn:
 
More info...

The Aries male will undoubtedly be a rash and impetuous individual, impulsive in love affairs and marriage...as he is with everything. He is likely to fall in love easily and will give all of himself at the moment, but will never be the "hopeless romantic." He is exciting, dynamic, creative, never dull and usually youthful in looks. Being inherently dominant, he often seeks out someone of a weaker nature...someone he can impress and protect with his so very masculine qualities. Attracted by beauty and apparent helplessness, the Aries man needs a mate who will be content to play second fiddle, remaining in the background where due admiration can be paid to this male's prowess and ability. In short, the Aries man expects adoration from his partner. Unlikely to yield or back down in any fight or contest, this male is both fearless and courageous. While he will not foolishly seek out a quarrel, once in one he will be there to win and should he happen to lose, his disappointment will be great. Although rarely revengeful, the Aries male does not easily forgive a wrong. Adventurous and active, this man possesses strong willpower but can be overly-generous with his time, money and possessions...while, at other times he can be incredibly intolerant, selfish and demanding. He has a natural ability to lead others, but the chief fault here lies in his own inconsistency. In order to be happy with an Aries man, it will be necessary to allow him to believe that he is "lord and master." He must be given plenty of reason to be proud of his partner, who will be expected to do everything both quickly and well...particularly if such adds to his prestige. It will be important not to command or quarrel with this man in order to make him recognize his own shortcomings...it is best to appeal to his sympathetic and better judgment. Another important factor for any potential partner to consider is that, for some unknown reason, the Aries male harbors a tremendous fear of being alone. Because he desires the means by which he can express himself, he will constantly seek the companionship of others. However, those being sought are rarely on this man's own level...almost anyone who helps to inflate the ego will be readily accepted. Thus, in terms of relationships, the demands of the Aries male to insist upon a partner who is simply around all the time can prove to be quite exhausting. If any potential mate finds it impossible to keep up with this man and his endless energy or if he believes the relationship is not working, then he is likely to end the affair rather quickly, anxious to start another without looking back. That having been said, the Aries male is very faithful when he finds his true love. However, he enjoys the chase as much as the catch and in order to achieve romantic success with this man, it will be important for any potential mate to be outgoing, independent, possess a sense of adventure and keep just that little bit ahead of him.

Ambitious, hardworking and successful, there is little that can hold the male ruled by Aries. Probably his most irritating fault is contradiction. This man knows a lot and heaven help anyone who gets the facts wrong. He is able to plan for the future with exciting and progressive ideas. Sometimes, there is no pleasing this male, but he is very romantic at heart once he has made up his mind on a mate, will be constant and true. This man will always want to be the center of his loved one's attention and probably take it for granted that he is. Flattery works with the Aries male and he can consume large amounts, provided he does not expect that it is a line. Once in love, he will leave no doubt regarding his feelings. This is a man who is warm-hearted and virile, but also somewhat bossy. He likes to be waited on hand and foot but in return, is ready and willing to fight for the best for his partner, children and family. For a relationship to last, it will be necessary for any partner to allow the Aries male to believe he is lord and master. It will also be important for a partner to give the Aries man plenty of reasons to be proud of what that partner accomplishes. Things he expects to be done should be done quickly and well, particularly if they add to his prestige. It is useless to try and make the Aries male see his shortcomings by way of commands or quarreling...appeals should always be made to his sympathetic side and his better judgment. In addition, he detests muddle or fuss, so any prospective partner must be organized.

But Lawd...can they lay some pipe...:look: So I hear...I was a nun until I fell in love and left my calling for marriage...:look::yawn:

OMG, I am a Cancer and I swear you just broke down this nut I am talking to. He sends me on a dang emotinal rollercoaster. Whenever, I am starting to go the other way bc I can't stand A-holes, he comes with kind words, gifts , etc....:nono:
 
I am an Aries, and I don't think Aries and Cancer is a good mix. I tried dating one once and it was an atrocious mess...like oil and water. :perplexed
 
Aries/Cancer Compatibility from the same website:

The Aries individual may experience some trouble in trying to break through the protective shell of a Cancer native. Those governed by Cancer tend to hide their feelings inside and may project to the world at large a somewhat false image of being thicker-skinned than they truly are. Eventually, if the Aries individual does manage to penetrate the outer shell, then he or shee will find an extremely sensitive person with feelings that are easily damaged. Initially, Cancer will be attracted to Aries courtesy of this Sign's strong personality, but within a short time, the Cancer native comes to realize just how different the value system is between them. In addition, the fiery love of Aries may well cause Cancer to wonder exactly how long real love can last with such intensity. Being prone to moodiness and easily hurt to the point where the Cancer subject may pout for days does not sit well with the direct and energetic character of Aries, who thrives on activity and new beginnings. The quiet outer facade of a Cancer native was most likely the chief attraction for Aries, since this individual is a go-getter and likes to have a tranquil place to recover in peace. Cancer is essentially a homebody who wants a large family and the Aries individual might not be ready for such a scenario for quite some time. Thus, the Cancer partner will begin to lose interest in the sexual act since secretly, Cancer does believe that sex is for procreation. This is an attitude that will rapidly cause the Aries native to seek elsewhere for a partner. Energetic, sociable and forward-looking, the Aries native will find it difficult to adapt to the desires of home-loving, protective and nurturing Cancer, who likes to be the leader and will spend more time sulking than talking unless he or she is allowed to make most of the decisions. Given the differences and clash in personalities here, this could be a shaky union at best.

An Aries/Cancer love affair is essentially a case of "opposites attract." Aries individuals are rash and brash while Cancer individuals are sensitive and emotional. Aries can certainly be emotional, but in a fiery and impetuous way that can totally overwhelm the Cancer native. Although Cancer prefers to take time with relationships, he or she will probably find the Aries whirlwind approach to be exceedingly stimulating. In turn, Aries will undoubtedly regard the Cancer sensitivity to be appealing...it is a good balance for the typical Aries bluntness. However, trouble may arise if Cancer's mood swings or the aggression of Aries becomes hurtful. Here, each party must take time to listen to the needs of the other and understand that they are coming from different directions to meet a common goal. Cancer is indicative of home while Aries is indicative of self. Still, one magnificent dynamic shared by this pair is that both will be fiercely protective of those they love. Cancer individuals use their shells to draw around themselves, family and mate when trouble threatens. Aries individuals use strength and bravery for the same purpose...rather like a knight in shining armor. Cancer will provide Aries with a happy domestic life and emotional security. However, there is sometimes a tendency for the Cancer partner to build an idealized image of the Aries mate or be overly-possessive and this can grate horribly on the independent Aries. Still, if the Aries native can reassure the Cancer subject that he or she is loved and cherished, this will help tremedously. In short, Aries truly needs to learn to listen to Cancer, who operates on an instinctive level. In return, the advice given by Cancer can aid the Aries partner to avoid silly mistakes caused by the typical lack of planning inherent in this Sign.


Aries is ruled by the planet Mars and Cancer is ruled by the Moon. The open and passionate nature of Aries will appeal to Cancer, who often internalizes emotions and feelings. Moreover, those governed by the Moon can possess an intense energy that Aries can help them to release. The Moon controls the tides of the Earth, quietly affecting all life...similarly Cancer works behind the scenes. In addition, Cancer tends to be sentimental and can teach Aries to slow down and appreciate life instead of constantly rushing to the next thing on the agenda. Aries is governed by the element of Fire while Cancer is governed by the element of Water. This can be a magnificent combination if the parties work together...using both action and emotion to get things accomplished. Cancer can help Aries to be more gentle and Aries can teach a Cancer native how to emerge from his or her shell. But, Cancer can be emotionally manipulative and on occasion, there may simply be too much Water which dampens the enthusiasm of Fire. Conversely, too much Fire can cause Water to evaporate, leaving the Cancer partner emotionally raw. Here, it will be necessary for both partners to talk openly and freely in order to ensure that their balance is maintained. Both Aries and Cancer are Cardinal in quality. Hence, both are initiators but will have to learn how to cooperate. Aries is a natural leader, always rushing forth to meet a challenge, but Cancer is also indirectly in charge courtesy of emotional control and the ability to weigh a situation. Cancer tend to compromise somewhat easily while Aries may be unwilling to yield and the Cancer partner may have to accept giving in. Perhaps the best aspect of an Aries/Cancer match comes with the realization that they are on the same team...the combination of Fire and Water does work well together. If Aries is out there getting attention and Cancer is quietly supporting the back end, then each partner's ability to provide what the other lacks will make for an equal relationship.


In essence, this combination may experience difficult times in terms of longevity. By nature, Cancer is moody, sentimental and secretive, with a tendency to live in the past. These natives have a hard time forgetting serious conflicts that may happen in a relationship. Plus, the secretive nature has the potential of clashing with the openess associated with those governed by Aries. Here, the first year will be the hardest. If this pair can make it beyond that point, then there is a good chance the union will endure for quite some time.


I don't know how into this guy you are, but from one Cancer to another, the Aries male is more trouble than he is worth. You'd be better off with a more stable sign. Tauruses have that same aloofness without the butthole. Or at least not the same kind of butthole. :lol:
 
Hmmmm.... yeah, I was dealing with an Aries guy once. It was short-lived, but I can identify with the arrogant and aloof. And I thought I was aloof. :look:

I had sorta kinda heard about the sexual connection between the Aries-Libra and wanted to *cough* try it out *cough* cuz he had gotten a sistah all intrigued. :look:

It never got that far once I found out about his "open relationship" that he neglected to inform me about. This negro told me he thought I would still be cool with him having a girlfriend. :rolleyes:
 
I have heard some interesting things about the Aries man sexual nature.

I was talking to one of my girlfriends about a guy we had went to school with. And she had briefly dated him. I was inquiring about his uber-serious personality. I was like, dude seems kinds stiff, does he ever loosen up? :perplexed She said no, but there was another side to that personality quirk. So I said, um, do tell. :look:

She said she would show up at his place. And he would just have this look of quiet intensity about himself. There was no niceties, no sweet nothings, lol, he would just proceed to "order" her to take off articles of clothing :look: and then proceed to lay what she described as some glorious pipe. :look:

She stopped talking to him because she described him as an arrogant a$$hole, but while reminiscing, she said she just might call him up for more of that glorious pipelaying. :blush:
 
Starian, I'm an Aries and you're description was spot on to some of my traits.

I love the chase and i'm very persistent, but not stalkerish tho :giggle:

I'm very blunt and I never lead people on. One time, i told one boyfriend I simply didn't like having sex with him anymore.

I was involved with a cancer once... dear lord was that a clingy man. omg! I couldn't take it. I kept leaving him, then "going back home" because he offered stability and he loved me. I like guys who love me, but he was wayyyyy to touchy feeling, all up in my space.

and i don't don't pretty boys. no way.

I have lots of friends and I love to hangout. but I'm really a loner, if that makes sense.

darn, i should have been born an aried dude. :giggle:
 
I'm an Aries and I dated another Aries twice before. Both were during my younger days but both relationships were pretty interesting. Actually my first love/heartbreak was by an Aries.

I can see alot of those traits being true, both for the male and female.
 
Aries men are extremely interesting....tis all


































and there is one I know, that I would like to beat in the head w/ a bat on occasions..
 
OMG, I am a Cancer and I swear you just broke down this nut I am talking to. He sends me on a dang emotinal rollercoaster. Whenever, I am starting to go the other way bc I can't stand A-holes, he comes with kind words, gifts , etc....:nono:

That is sooooooo on point. drives me bananas, I'm leo.

I dated one once and he loved loved loved me, we were fierce together and the glorious deal is an understatement. :lick:

I swear you are talking about me. Except you need to replace the she with the he parts. :yep:
 
Well Im a Sag and Im in love with an Aries man. I dont find him arrogant but I do find him very showy. Hes also caring, very laid back, and VERY passive. He lets things build up then explodes though hes never exploded with me. We seem to have this energy when were together. I cant even describe it but its different. He drives me crazy with some of the things he does and he has flaws but the good outweigh the bad with him. We never argue and we learn from each other which is another plus. Sometimes I think people take advantage of him bc he can be too generous and I just want to protect him. We are opposites but yet we are just about the same. Overall, I think Aries and Sagittarius are a good match but mine is a heartbreaker.
 
I was in a 5 year relationship with an Aries. I am an Aries. Interesting to say the least. When we had arguments. He would go off, hoop and hollar and than swash it. Once he swashed it, he didn't want to talk about it anymore. He loved his space. I loved my space. He liked a lot of attention. He also loved to be the hero, the savior.

thats funny.

I hate that when they don't want to talk about it, you really can't talk about it no more.
 
They always got something to do and something random going on. I find that cool though; taps into my eccentric side. And they're usually always up for anything....at that moment. If the moment passes by, forget about it. And yes they love that chase...OMG. Sometimes you have to turn it off, then turn it back on to purposely reignite them. And they're usually a sucker for the puppy-dog face.

Gawd drives me ape-doo doo...especially because I can be a bit dense at times and not get it. He gets so defensve when I ask him questions only for my understanding:sad:

I'm the same way. I rarely get really seeing red angry, that's reserved for times when I'm about to go OFF. But if I get regular petty mad about something, I'm mad, I take a moment, and I'm over it. I don't want to talk about it for hours and hours I will never bring it up again in a fight - it's done for me. My SO is a libra and he will dig things out of NOWHERE and want to discuss things forever. I think when I say I'm "over it" it's hard for people to accept -- but it's kind of like a spring thunderstorm....10 minutes later you can't even tell it rained.

Girl, we sound like the same person. My DD's dad and my last SO are both Aries...their birthdays were the same day. :rolleyes: You hit the nail RIGHT on the head with this. :yep:
 
Both my Aries men wanted to be liked. It was their main concern. Everything was about appearances. They were the "buy everyone a round even when I'm flat broke" type. I hated that.
 
That is sooooooo on point. drives me bananas, I'm leo.

I dated one once and he loved loved loved me, we were fierce together and the glorious deal is an understatement. :lick:

So the glorious pipelaying is not a myth?

Hmmmm..... I still want to try this out. Lemme find an Aries man real quick. :lachen:
 
^^Right.
They're super smart and creative and ...just get it.

On a somewhat unrelated topic, Hugh Hefner is an Aries :ohwell::look:. To me that makes me wonder about their loyalty though..eh.

The bolded is SO TRUE. I am an Aries and I am just like that.

The above is me!

I once dated a cancer dude.

I left him for another dude and he had a mental breakdown straight after.
I just cant do clingy people no mater how perfect they may be for me.

I'm with a Leo now and he completes me. His arrogance is something else (i find it sexy) but he can handle my arrogance and i get my personal space when i need it.
