Leo (me) in a 6-month situationship with an Aquarius… I’m exhausted. Advice?
We started out agreeing to keep things casual. Fast forward six months, and somehow we’ve ended up hanging out 2–3 times a week.
She’s quite new to the city, so I introduced her to my friends, brought her into my circles, and we’ve made a lot of fun memories together. I genuinely care about her.
The problem is… I’m a stereotypical Leo when it comes to feelings. 😅 I get attached. I like consistency and warmth. She, on the other hand, feels very Aquarius - super independent, emotionally hard to read, hot one minute and cold the next.
I knew this wasn’t meant to become a relationship, but somewhere along the way my feelings got bigger. Recently I realized I’m just… tired. Like emotionally drained tired. Waiting, wondering, trying not to care as much as I do.
I think I’m ready to end the situationship, but I don’t know how.
Part of me still wants to keep her as a friend (maybe?), but I’m honestly not even sure if that’s realistic while I still have feelings. to make things more complicated, I recently started a recurring group activity and she’s part of it, so I’m worried about how awkward things could get if I end whatever this is.
Has anyone successfully ended a situationship and stayed friends? Or did you need space first?
