How He Leads You On, Based On His Zodiac Sign

One of the most aggravating things is when you just don’t know where you stand with your partner. You think that you have a future together but you’re just not sure. You want to learn how to know if he's leading you on. You’ve tried asking him directly but he always seems to dodge the question or, even worse, he placates you by giving you vague answers and then changes the subject.

How can you know if he’s the one or not when he seems to be doing everything in his power to confuse and annoy you on this issue? 

It can be extremely frustrating not knowing what the future holds for your relationship. You can make any plans and you’re stuck in a kind of limbo. How is he able to keep you hanging on when he gives no indication whatsoever if he or your relationship will ultimately be worth it? He’s getting all the benefits of being with you without having to worry about committing.

Commitment can be frightening for some people but when they allow their fear to get in the way of your happiness, that’s when you have to do something so that you can at least get some idea of where your relationship (if indeed it is a relationship) is going anyway.

You need to be able to read between the lines. Does his behavior match his words? Is he saying one thing but meaning another? What does his body language tell you? The clues of his intentions are there, you just need to be able to decipher them.

Are you being conned into being a fantastic girlfriend when he doesn't see ever committing to you long-term? Your relationship may be wasting your time when you could be with someone who has the same goals and values as you do.

Astrology can help. Here’s how guys keep a girl interested and how he’s keeping you hanging on, based on his zodiac sign.

ARIES (March 21 - April 19)

istock

Every time you try to bring up where he sees your relationship going he's always on his way out the door or he has a plan (for something that you can do together) that he just has to share. He distracts you from pursuing that serious conversation that you need to have. Just when you resolve that tonight you'll have the talk that you've been putting off, he'll divert your attention elsewhere.

TAURUS (April 20 - May 20)

istock

He keeps putting you off by telling you he's just not ready or he's not sure you're the one he can commit to long-term. While it's true that it does take Taurean a long time to finally commit, you're within your rights to ask him to please speed up the process. If in the end he decides you're not the one, you need to be out there finding someone else. It's like he doesn't want to make a commitment, but on the other hand, he gets jealous if you see other people. He can't have it both ways.

GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)

istock

In many ways, he's the perfect boyfriend — always texting you, messaging you, and loves to hang out with you and your friends. That's the problem: it seems as if he needs people to be the buffer between you and him as it's never just the two of you. If he'd rather stay in the friend-zone permanently, you need to find out. Tell him you need to have a one on one convo with him, and tell him how you feel and find out how he really feels. If the two of you are a better match as friends, find out before you get hurt.

CANCER (June 21 - July 22)

istock

You love how open and vulnerable he is with you. You assume he'd only be sharing his deepest emotions with you if he saw you as something more than a friend but you'd be wrong. He has no problem telling anyone who asks his deepest emotions. You need to get a clear reading on if he's just keeping you hanging so he has someone to confide in or if he really sees a future with you.

LEO (July 23 - August 22)

istock

When he gives you any attention, you feel as if the sun is smiling on you and everything seems bright. He may not see you as wife material. He needs to be around people and to have a lot of friends. Do you only go on group dates, and does getting a minute alone with him seem practically impossible? You may not be on the same page as far as where you see your relationship going.

VIRGO (August 23 - September 22)

istock

He's always there ready to fix any problem you have but seems sketchy when you try to talk about more serious matters. He wouldn't fix your computer if he didn't love you, right? You need to find out why he gives you so many mixed messages because that's how guys keep a girl interested. But do his many good deeds have more to do with him being a nice guy than him wanting to move in together with you?

LIBRA (September 23 - October 22)

istock

You're always invited when he has any kind of social engagement. You've met all his friends and family and they seem to really like you. It seems obvious to you that you passed whatever test you needed to prove to him that you're an asset to his life, but he never seems to want to get serious. When you try to talk about making a commitment, he just says he's not in the right space to talk about something so important so you're left hanging.

SCORPIO (October 23 - November 21)

istock

He's always flirty with you and very complimentary, so you think that he might be envisioning a future with you. Unfortunately, that's just how Scorpios are — very flirtatious, very mysterious, and very sexy. It's hard to tell if he's into you or just teasing you. The thing is if he was in love with you, you'd probably know as Scorpios are extremely passionate and he wouldn't be able to hide his feelings. If you ask him directly where he sees your relationship going, expect an honest answer because he doesn't lie nor will he sugarcoat his response, so brace yourself.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21)

istock

You have a lot of fun with him but when the conversation turns more serious, he takes off. He probably makes it as clear as he can that he doesn't want a relationship with commitment or strings. This guy only wants to have fun and if you want more, you'll probably have to find it with someone else.

CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 19)

istock

This guy actually remembers all the important and not-so-important dates. He's the first one to wish you a happy birthday or offer you a hug if it's the anniversary of a sad occasion. He makes you feel as if your feelings matter to him. Marriage and family are important to him, so if he sees a future with you, he's probably already making plans. If you haven't discussed 401Ks and if you want children by now, he most likely doesn't want to be with you long-term.

AQUARIUS (January 20 - February 18)

istock

You never know what to expect from this guy. One moment he's doing something remarkable for you like reading a story he wrote based on you, and the next, he's shutting down because you're getting emotional. It's very difficult to know where you stand with an Aquarius. You can try pinning him down and demand to know if he's serious about you, but that will probably scare him off. You just need to have patience and decide if he's worth the gamble.

PISCES (February 19 - March 20)

istock

He's so kind and always does the nicest things for you, but it's hard to know if he's doing it because he loves you madly or he just doesn't want to hurt you. It's not unlikely that he would stay with you, even if he was over it, because he doesn't think he could handle a big display of emotion. If confronted, he might react badly. If he doesn't see a future with you, he may start introducing you to his single friends to hope that you leave him without him having to break your heart.
