25 Ways To Make Your Aquarius Man Feel Special

How do you make someone as cool and emotionally detached as an Aquarius man feel truly special? This is a question that I am often asked by my clients who are trying their best to get an emotional reaction out of an Aquarian, yet have continually failed to succeed. The truth is, more often than not the Aquarian in your life feels special already, so topping his own sense of confidence and knowledge of how awesome he is can be hard to do. Notice that I said hard, not impossible.

In the pages that follow I’ll give you the lowdown on how you can cut through the cool exterior of an Aquarius man and really let him know how special he is to you. Armed with these 25 tips you will have a surprise for any occasion or situation that pops up and requires something that will be memorable and show him what he means to you.

The Aquarius man loves surprises and this if you have ever been close to one this is probably pretty common knowledge. For this reason you may want to consider springing things on him when he least expects it. If you cause a ruckus in how you show him how special he is to you, all the better—in most cases, anyway. Aquarian men are all about forward movement and progressive thinking and they absolutely adore things that are weird and outside the realm of normal. This should give you a general idea about the things that make him say, “Aww, you do care.”

1.) Buy Him the Newest Gadget Out There

As I stated previously, the Aquarius man loves new gadgets and like to stay up to date on the latest technology. You may not completely understand the function of what it is that you are buying for him, but you can rest assured that even if it is lacking in usefulness, as long as it is cool and unusual (and also very likely was created by a fellow aquaria mind) he will flip when you offer him this kind of gift. Bonus points if you go out of your way to wait in line when said gadget is released, although, it is also perfectly acceptable to go about making your purchase the more technologically advanced way and use the internet.

2.) Get Him a Book That You Know He Can Learn Something From

Aquarian minds are brilliant and the word genius is thrown around a lot when we talk about this sign. What do brilliant people love? Books, of course. Where do you think all of that information comes from? Well, with Aquarians there are some things that they just seem to naturally know, and this can be a bit weird, yet is very intriguing. Anyway, Aquarians need to continually find sources of knowledge to carry on and be happy in their existence. An Aquarian without a source of knowledge is like a flower without a source of water, so showing him you care by nourishing his brain is never a bad choice.

When it comes down to what type of book to get him you can never go wrong with something science related. Not quite a text book, but something fact based where he will feel like he learned something and is more knowledgeable about how the world works. Astronomy or Astrology are never bad choices when looking for books that you Aquarius man would enjoy reading.

3.) Show Him How Much Your Friendship Means

Aquarians are one of the friendliest signs of the Zodiac. Their whole life kinda revolves around the support structure of people they can call their friends. Sure, your Aquarian man is a highly social creature who can make anyone feel as though they are his best pal, but when you take the time to really show him how much you value not just his friendship, but the idea of friendship in general.

Of course, the whole point here is to let him know that you find him to be a very special person in your life, but you’ll want to avoid emotional displays that indicate this. Friendship can be many things, from being there when he needs you to pick him up if his car should break down to supporting him when the odds seem to be stacked against him. It’s the little things that show him how much you value him as a friend and also showing him how solid your friendship foundation is that will make him feel as special as you think he is.

4.) Plan a Date Night Someplace Unique

Aquarians are different from most people, they like different things and they just are a little weird in general. When planning date night leave plans loose and don’t go for anything too traditional. You could even go so far as to orchestrate a day where you go skydiving or scuba diving, anything that is outside the realm of what normal date nights consist of. Sure, you can go out to the movies and have dinner and have a good time doing so, but if you want to show him how special he is to you offer him the opportunity for a new experience he can add to his memory banks.

5.) Get Him Something He Can Create With

The Aquarius man is an idealist and a visionary. He is constantly coming up with new ideas for how to improve old things or creating brand new things all together. Actually, it comes as no surprise that many inventors and engineers are Aquarians. If he has a medium that you know he likes to work with you can make him feel special by getting him something that he can use to bring his creative ideas into reality. If he likes wood you could get him a nifty tool that he doesn’t have or if he likes to paint you could splurge on colors you haven’t sen in his palette or some canvas to work with. This is great because you know he will use it and the odds are he will think of you when he does. It’s a win-win.

6.) Help Him Spiff Up His Wardrobe

Typically the more uniquely dressed people are ones who are Air signs. Aquarius is not the most fashion conscious of this group, but the Aquarian man does like to show off his own unique style from time to time. You can show him how special he is to you by snagging up something you think he might like when you are out shopping.

Now, the biggest mistake you could make here is to buy him clothes that are obviously not his style. Yes, he likes to try new things, however, he does not want to feel like you want to change him or how he presents himself. If he set that you have gotten him something to wear that reflects his individual, and perhaps even eccentric, style he will know that you respect his outer shell as much as you do what’s on the inside.

7.) Don’t Try to Change Who He is

Aquarians are anything but ordinary, in fact, if you suggest that the Aquarian man is “normal” he will very likely be offended and try to figure out where he went wrong. The Aquarius man needs to know that you can accept him the way he is and not try to change his ways. Actually, if he gets the feeling that you are slowly trying to turn him into something he’s not, he won’t be sticking around for too long.

Being a fixed sign he is also very stubborn and there is no way that you are going to make him change anyhow, and you run the high risk of being cast out of his life if you start making suggestions for how he could become more normal. When it comes to Aquarians, both men and women, you either like them or you hate them and rarely will you get to the point of actually understanding them. The thought of changing who they are to make another person happy seems quite absurd considering how many people there are in the world. As far as an Aquarian is concerned it makes much more sense to just be with someone who likes you the way you are.

8.) Embrace His Crazy

This is a phrase that one of my clients blurted out while we were discussing how she handles living with an Aquarian man and I find this to be the perfect way to deal with some of the strange habits that Aquarian men tend to have. It does have a nice ring to it, doesn’t it? So, this means exactly what it sounds like; you’ve got to embrace his crazy.

Madness is genius, or so they say, and the Aquarius man is definitely a mixture of these two things. You can’t fight it and you can’t change his ways, however firmly based in insanity as they may seem. If you can learn to embrace the madness, however, he will see how much you love him. This is something that can go a long way in making an Aquarian man feel special and like you actually do understand him.

9.) Plan a Surprise Birthday Party on a Day That is Not His Birthday

By now you know that Aquarian men are just full of surprises, but how do you surprise the master of shock and awe? By planning something he would never expect. Of course, once you have given him one surprise birthday party on a day other than his birthday you’ll never be able to pull this trick again because he will be privy to your planning style, but if you can catch him off guard and invite all of his friends over for a good time and make him feel surprised he will also feel pretty darn special that everyone is there AND that everyone went to the trouble to surprise him.

10.) Get Him a Telescope

Aquarius is thought of as being the Zodiac sign that is most closely related to the art of astrology, as well as being ruled by Uranus who was at one time the ruler of the Universe. What better way to show him you care than giving him a tool that can allow him to see out into the depths of the night sky? Aquarian men are naturally curious and have a scientific mind so the chances are great that he will be using your gift on a regular basis. Again, this is awesome because when he uses it he’ll think of you and how thoughtful you are, as well as the fact that you seem to “get” him.

11.) Respect His Personal Space

The Aquarian needs to know that you respect his personal space and his freedom. He can’t stand to have someone try to pin him down or force him into something he isn’t ready for, so getting all up in his business will be a huge turnoff for this guy. By showing him that you lack that nasty jealousy emotion and letting him do his thing without cramping his style you are showing him that you understand his need for space and also that you trust him. Trust is of paramount importance when you are in a relationship with an Aquarius man and failure to trust him will signal that you aren’t the right one for him to be with.

12.) Connect With Him Over Good Conversation

The Aquarius man places a high level of importance on the ability to connect with you on an intellectual level. Being an Air sign communication is just a part of who he is and you’ll soon notice that he can talk to just about anyone about anything. If you can keep the conversation going and keep him engaged and interested this will speak volumes of your compatibility and the chances that you will be someone he can be with long term. He’ll love that you have a good head on your shoulders and you’ll get the opportunity to get to know him much better than if you didn’t approach him on a cerebral level.

13.) Surprise Him With a New Smartphone or Tablet

As we’ve already said, the Aquarius man is all about communication and he likes to be able to stay in touch. When you surprise him with the latest technology built for communicating he will be elated. This serves kind of a double purpose, in that you are not only offering him a means of keeping in touch but also the cool gadgetry will be something that goes over well and that shows him you have an understanding of what he likes and what is important to him. Also, this gives him one more way to keep in touch with you.

14.) Avoid Extravagant Displays of Affection

The Aquarius man isn’t much for emotional displays of affection, in fat, it is something that he very likely hates. It isn’t because he doesn’t care for you, but PDA can be embarrassing and he doesn’t know how to handle it. This can be an issue for some who feel that mushy emotional exchanges are the only way to express your feelings for one another. By not putting him in the uncomfortable position of not knowing how to reciprocate these things you are showing him that you respect his underlying needs. Don’t worry, there are other ways that you can fulfill the emotional needs of the relationship that will satisfy you both.

15.) Get Him a Go-Pro Camera

The Aquarius man is high energy and loves adventure so getting him one of these action cameras is something that he will really love and get a lot of use out of. It is true that Aquarians live in the moment, or more accurately they live in the future, however, giving him the option to save memories of fun and excitement is definitely something that would go over well.

There is just something about the idea of wearable technology that is ready to record those moments like skydiving or surfing (if you go for the waterproof model) that your Aquarian guy will get excited over. Plus, this gives him a reason to go out in search of adventures to catch on tape and he can then share these adventurous moments with his friends through more than just stories.

16.) Pick Him Up Random Novelty Items From Your Travels

If you travel a lot, you can make your Aquarius man feel special and show him that you were thinking about him while you were away by grabbling up cool novelty items you find along the way. It doesn’t have to be anything expensive or extravagant, just a little something that he wouldn’t normally find at home and something that is unique. If you find something that has a story attached to it that you can tell him and he can then share with others, even better.

You don’t actually have to bring back something from a far off land for your Aquarius man to appreciate a novelty gift that made you think of him. It can be something you saw while you were out at lunch with friends or even something cool and unique from the gas station down the road. The point here is that you saw this cool, weird item or gadget and thought he might appreciate its novelty.

17.) Have a Star Named After Him

This one is a little out there, I know, and you don’t have to spend a whole lot on it or put yourself in the poorhouse to accomplish this task. If the opportunity does present itself, however, your Aquarius man would really dig the idea that there is a star out there with his name it, literally. Aquarians are very scientifically minded and they love to explore the night sky. Star gazing is very likely a favorite pastime for your guy and what could be cooler than looking up there to find your very own star?

18.) Get Him a New Pair of Running Shoes

While it isn’t just a given that all Aquarian men will be runners, it is true that, for the most part, Aquarians are pretty healthy and like to stay in shape. Every Zodiac sign has a specific body part that they are most closely related to. For Aquarius this is the legs, calves and lymphatic system. That being said, the odds are good that your Aquarius man has some pretty well defined legs and would appreciate a new pair of kicks to go running or jogging in.

Of course, if you know that he isn’t into running or joking you won’t want to go with this option, so feel the situation out. If you are to the point of buying him shoes then you should have a good idea by now if it’s something he would like. If running is his it’ll go over quite well that you care about his health and he’ll know that you pay attention to his hobbies and what he likes.

19.) Get Him a Really Nifty Watch

Getting the Aquarius man in your life a watch as a gift is somethings that he will really enjoy and get a lot of use out of. Not that he is the most punctual person in the world, but getting a watch for him will add a bit of organizational help to his life and if you can manage to find one that has some super-cool gadgetry or extra features he will really love his wearable technology. This could go back to he days when Saturn was ruler of Aquarius and punctuality was a bit more important, coming from father time and all. To make this gift all the more special you can have it engraved with an inside joke or something that will make him smile and think of you when he is wearing it.

20.) Take Him to See a Comedy Show

Aquarians have a wicked sense of humor and they love to be in an atmosphere with happy, laughing people. If he has a favorite comedian, or if you know there is someone who he would really like, it could be a really fun and entertaining night for the both of you to go and see a good comedy show. If the comedian is on the raunchy side, all the better. There is a darker side to Aquarius, and we will get to that in a bit, but the well put dirty jokes that make you spew drink out if your nose is exactly the kind of thing that will loosen him up and let him have a little fun.

21.) Spend the Day Together Test Driving Cars

Having Uranus as their ruler, Aquarians like things in life that are shocking and not what is considered the status-quo. Not everyone has a fast, shiny sports car, and your Aquarian may not be able to go out and buy one, but the odds are very good that he would love to spend the day with you car-hopping and test driving the newest, latest and greatest sport cars on the market. I once knew an Aquarian with Mars conjunct his Uranus and speed was just a way of life for him. This is an adventure the two of you can embark on that doesn’t really cost you anything and is a guaranteed good time.

22.) Plan a Vacation That is Out of The Ordinary

If you are close enough that you do things like take vacations together or if you are just getting to this point, you can surprise your Aquarius man with a trip that is out of this world. I’m not talking about the typical beach vacation or going on a cruise. I’m talking about something that would be both fun and educational and it will give the two of you a chance to have some alone time, which is often times difficult to get with these supremely social creatures. Maybe an excursion to some ancient ruins or a trip to the Galapagos Islands—anything that will produce great stories and a truly unique and rewarding experience for the both of you that you can share.

23.) Offer to Have Both of Your Astrological Charts Read

Aquarius is known as the sign most closely associate with the art of astrology itself, so it comes as no huge surprise that the Aquarius man would really appreciate a trip to your local astrologer to have a reading. If you are already in a relationship a synastry or composite chart can be a great idea that will actually show on paper where you can relate to one another the best. You’ll definitely also want to have his own personal chart done, however, as to not make the outing all about the relationship. This is something that he can keep forever and that will help him in decoding the elements of his personality that not even the most self-aware Aquarian understands.

24.) Invite Him to a Charity Event

Aquarians are the humanitarians of the Zodiac and they have an innate need to help the underdog. Honestly, your Aquarius man has probably spent a good portion of his life contemplating how to save the world, or at least coming up with ways to improve the human condition to see degree. Inviting him to help you with, or even just to attend, a charity event will make him feel good about the contribution he is making while showing him that you are also concerned with humanitarian efforts. If you want to really make him get into it you can plan your own event for a cause you care deeply about and ask him to help you with it. He will love getting to make a change and you’ll get to spend some quality time together brainstorming ideas.

25.) Don’t be Afraid to Experiment in the Bedroom

This last tip may be the most fun and exciting, but it won’t be the most important to your Aquarius man. Sex is not the pinnacle of a relationship with an Aquarius man, he actually values your mental connection far more than your physical one. That being said, once you do get to the point where you are intimate and get down to doing the deed you’ll be shocked at his abilities and the things ha can do between the sheets.

Erotic experimentation is something that most Aquarians are very much into and this extends into the taboo. Sex with him will always be fresh and exciting and you’ll never have to worry about falling into the pit of hum-drum missionary position every time, no sir, not with this guy! Keep an open mind and don’t be afraid to try new things, as long as you are comfortable with them, of course.

These ideas are great, but you know your Aquarius man better than I, so take some time to tweak these things to fit your specific situation. Think of this list as a jumping off point for you to find even more things that make your Aquarius man feel special and happy in your relationship. The more you get to know him, the more you’ll come to realize just how special he is to you and you’ll keep finding better and better ways to let him know it. Now, what are you waiting for? Get out there and go have some fun with your Aquarius guy!
