I've been seeing this really cute Aries guy recently and I'm wondering what Aries men are like in relationships. Are they good boyfriends? How do I make him fall for me?

Aries men emulate the phrase “I am.” So if you're talking to them and start any sentence with, “You are…”—like, “You are so strong,” “You are so great,” “You're so amazing”—then you'll be heading in the right direction. Aries men love attention and hate being alone with no one telling them how great they are.

On the flip side, if you lightly or flirtatiously tease an Aries man and make him a little mad, it might drive him wild. But tread lightly, an Aries' anger is not something to toy with. But if you do make an Aries man's blood boil a little, he will think about you a lot. If he finds you attractive, it may make him go wild with wanting to see you again so that he can tell you how he feels about what you said. But Aries men also forgive and forget really quickly and easily, so it may turn into him asking you out on a date a few days later.

Aries men are into themselves. Whatever he likes about himself (or his adopted persona at the time) is what he's into. Aries is ruled by the planet Mars, the god of war, so any space to release his aggression is where you will find Aries. He may be playing video games, practicing MMA, or watching or participating in sports. Other ways to channel this energy might be creative or competitive pursuits like acting, singing, theater, public speaking, social media, etc. I wouldn't advise becoming a competitor to an Aries man and trying to do everything that he does, but rather be a spectator or do something to complement him. If you become his favorite fan or collaborator and cheer him on, he will love and adore you.

My last ex was an aries man and let's just say..never again! He was always so hot and cold and inconsistent, like one day giving me so much attention and the next day acting so mean and indifferent. I think I stayed bc I thought it was kind of thrilling (oops) but then I realized he was just playing games with me and it wasn't a good situation after all. I want a man who I can depend on and who doesn't mess with my feelings. here's hoping he's out there xx

Aries men are so mean. Very unemotional.

I started dating an Aries man about 6 months ago and our connection is so electric! We both want each other so bad all the time and it feels like he went all in real quick. I'm a little nervous that things are going to drop off at some point because I keep hearing about Aries' reputation of coming in hot and heavy and then ending up being way too much. At the moment, I'm happy that he wants to see me every day (or if we can't see each other, we'll do a phone call) and even though it's been months of him showering me with compliments and romantic gestures, I still love all of it and do my best to match his energy. Hopefully things keep going strong!

Aries men need space to think and be in their head, so give them lots of space. They also usually want people that can keep up with them mentally---make sure you're paying attention when an Aries man is explaining something. You don't want to have to ask tons of clarifying questions or ask the same question over and over. An Aries man also wants to feel like you're moving forward together. He might not be as interested in long-term planning, but you can win him over by taking on the long-term planning yourself.

I don't think it's fair to let Aries men get away with not thinking about the future by saying that they are the way they are because of their Zodiac sign. My last boyfriend was an Aries and he would never plan ANY of our dates. I'd try to strike up a conversation about what we wanted to do for our next hangout and he'd say, "Whatever you wanna do." and then put no effort into moving our plans forward. It was exhausting doing everything. And when I tried to talk to him about where he saw our relationship going and what he had planned for the future, he was never interested in getting into it. I didn't feel like I could plan a future with him, so I cut things off. If an Aries man wants to build a life with you, being an Aries will not stop him from having serious conversations about the future with you.

Feed that man some Sertraline. He sounds depressed without being aware. It's possible. If I'm right, he'll be a whole new person.

I loved my rough and tough Aries man. I let him lead and guided him on the side without letting him know. As a Cap his impulsivity drove me absolutely crazy but he knew that I adored him. He lit a fire in my heart until the very end. It doesn’t matter what sign you are it’s all based on what you both bring to the relationship and if you are willing to compromise. The first year was the hardest for me as I couldn’t handle his craziness but so glad I stuck it out. He was and will always be remembered as a loving, kind and gentle soul.

So here's the cool part: that is a myth. He will be just like any other guy.

I think it depends on the guy! I've had some Aries men be really intense and attracted to me. Our chemistry was off the charts and things were hot and steamy. But then I've also had some Aries men just play games with me? I'm not about that energy. Good luck with them they can be some of the best and worst relationships you've had

Something that took me some getting used to when dating my Aries boyfriend is how honest and direct hie is. There are pros and cons to this. I appreciate that the tells me things I need to hear, even if they don't feel great to hear, but sometimes I wish her were better at delivering the message in a way that was more...idk empathetic? Soft? Like I understand that he wants whats best for me and is just trying to look out for me but at first I'd shut down when he offered me constructive criticism. Now I'm able to put his advice into action better but it was hard at first!

The relationships I've had with Aries men have been whirlwinds! They are so bold, exciting, energetic, playful...I could go on and on, but basically I think they're a great time. One of my favorite simple pleasures of my relationship with an Aries man was how he was always teasing and competitive. We'd have great banter and back-and-forth bits with each other. I could always trust him to put me in a good mood!

Aries guys respect daring decisions. If you have even a little bit of a feeling like he likes you back, don't hesitate to just go for it and ask him out. He'll appreciate the audacity of the move, and even if he says no, he'll respect the attempt and it shouldn't impact your friendship.

Aries men tend to be a little impulsive and spontaneous. Lean into that by surprising him with a unique activity that can turn into a "date" organically. Go-kart racing, mini-golf, paintball, and escape rooms are all great options.

Aries signs tend to be a little headstrong and impatient. If the two of you end up dating for long, you'll eventually run into your partner's stubborn side. Try to exercise patience and wait them out. The passionate Aries will eventually find something else to focus on.

Every once in a while, pick a really weird or unique date activity and just commit to it. Your partner will really appreciate the offbeat stuff. Aries signs need a little spontaneity to stay engaged, so mix it up whenever you can.
