How He Acts Around You Vs. How He Acts Around His Friends, According To Astrology
Is he a bit two-faced?
Let’s be real – everybody acts a little differently around certain people. But, depending on his astrological zodiac sign – he may act completely differently around you than he acts around his friends.

Depending on the month he was born in and what horoscope sign he has, he may act one way with his pals and a completely different way around you.
It can be frustrating when you’re dealing with a guy that is sweet and romantic as heck when you two are alone, but then is a complete douche bag when his buddies come around to visit.
Maybe it’s time to start thinking of him as “relationship guy” (the guy that you fell in love with) and “dude guy” (that douchey frat guy that comes out occasionally when he’s had a few around his college pals – ugh. Such a turn off).
Some guys really are who they are regardless of who they’re around. But these types of guys are special and quite rare.
More often than not, a guy becomes a bit different around other males (it’s like other males hit the “dumb a**” button).
Maybe you haven’t seen your new guy around his friends yet and you’re worried because you’ve seen this phenomenon before (totally understandable).
Prepare yourself by reading how likely it is, according to astrology, that he’ll be a different person in “bro mode”.
Find his zodiac sign below and see how he is likely to act around you vs. how he acts around his friends.

How he acts around his friends:
With his friends, the Aries guy can be very competitive (bordering on douchey). Occasionally he may even come across as a bit of an a**hole when hanging out with his pals, but his honest nature will make him true to who he is (even if his over-competitive nature with his friends can be a bit of a tun off).
