Need help with my Aquarius Man

by Louise
(Manchester UK)

I've been involved with an Aquarius man who's 52 for just over a year now. I'm 33 and a Capricorn. We both had a mutual friend on a social networking site we use that's how we came to know one another. We stay over 4 hours from each other so distance is and can be a problem at times, along with his behavior and probably mine if i'm being honest as we've actually only spent 2 days together in total.

He was the one who made contact with me first he made it very clear from very early on he fancied me and was very interested he was also the first to bring an US into the equation. At first i was totally disinterested i know this may sound bad but looks wise he's not the sort of person i would go for but he very much won me over especially with his thoughts and feelings regarding relationships.

In many ways we seem to be a perfect match as we both have the same thoughts and feelings regarding relationships but the last 4/5 months have been a total nightmare with him. Every time we seem to get closer he runs a mile he becomes very distant and ignores me completely for a few weeks at a time and no i've never really handled it very well when he's done that i'm embarrassed to admit i've acted very much like a child stamping my feet and having the attitude of who are you to ignore me kind of thing which i've learned the hard way doesn't work, thing is he always comes back after a few weeks. He's told me everything that went on with his split from his ex wife(they are still legally married and still stay in the same house. She is now dependent on him as she has became an alcoholic and wont leave the house so basically he's now became her carer of sorts. they also have 3 grown up children together) how he felt and what he went through. He's told me that he cares very much for me he's told me that he likes me very much and would very much like to see how things turn out between us yet he runs away and hides for weeks at a time. His actions tell me one thing that he doesn't want me or an US but his words pull me back in and he very much tells me he's interested and wants to see where it goes between us. I have grown to care very much and am now developing strong feelings for this man. I have a close circle of friends who i speak to about him and this situation i have found myself in, my friends range from 30 - 50 and are completely divided in what they think about it all. Half say he's a player of sorts and just using me the other half says he's just scared of getting into anything serious as his marriage ended very badly 6 years ago (his ex wife cheated on him) I'm now starting to feel extremely insecure about the whole situation. One of my friends suggested looking into his star sign and i've been reading about Aquarius men over the last couple of days and i find i quite strange as it seems to have him down to a tee but i'm still at a totally loss as what to do or to think for that matter and i was wondering if yous could give me your thoughts and opinions and advice i don't want to walk away from this Aquarius man he's totally captured my heart, is this a typical Aquarius man, what do i do and does he really have any feelings for me?
