Damn girl, what the hell do you have in your chart?
Aquas aren't open. I feel that I can be a social butterfly on a light level and trust my intuition, but as far as the deep hearty stuff? That takes oceans to get to.
Most Aquas are quite reserved in their personal emotions. NOT cold...reserved. The love that I've noticed that we have, at least that is expressed openly is one of a humanitarian nature.
Anyone else?

if you ask I will tell you my personal junk. But I dont volunteer it.

I'm with Shayde and the others. Definitely not an open book or heart on my sleeve kinda person. I trust my intuition, can be seen as a social butterfly, and seem to share a lot, but I'm not known for being an open book. I'm an observer and lover of humanity, but on a one on one level it's a little awkward and weird....and if it means that they expect to get into the depth of me right away...well...hahahahahahahahaha Petra, I love that there are people out there like you (an aqua even), but I'm afraid that I just can't relate.

I tend to be completely trusting, and what I say is honest... but more so with people I don't know very well. As soon as there is risk I close up a little more, but with people I don't know very well I tend to lay it all out there. It's more a reaction to Hating the feeling of being embarrassed about something, so I try to just own everything and not hide stuff.......

I feel you, Petra. We grew up in the era of the Internet, where sharing the truth of our lives through Tribe etc. is a normal thing. I too have run into problems coz I'm an honest person that I just tell people like it is, and allow people to get too close. My older business partner smacks me on this regularly. I found an article recently that helped me, it should you also:

Beware the overshare in everyday conversations
Blurting out too much information, or TMI, is something we're becoming more and more comfortable with, some psychologists say. We obsess over the mundane details of celebrities' lives and are eager to tell our own stories on blogs and Flickr accounts. And often, all that online openness seeps into everyday conversations.

My book is SO open...it has no cover!
Most Aquarians I meet are the same way!
I like it like that!

When I was in 5th grade there was this girl I was talking to...she was one of the rich kids in our town. She was tall and beautiul and had long brown hair. We were just chatting about whatever 5th graders chat about and someone told her that the book bag on the chair next to her belonged to some girl named Jackie. The tall, rich good looking young girl took the bookbag and pushed it away from her onto another chair and said: "Ew I hate her!" This person she hated was the shyest most unassuming gentle person in the class. I could not believe it!!!!!!!!!!! This was the first time I saw that people just disliked each other for no reason. I thought it was really kind of ignoble of this girl who had it all including hatred of another person.

My mom used tell me I could not take it if people rejected me. But I don't know if I agree w/my mom. True she is able to blow people off like nothing and she is well liked by lots of poeple. She is smart and funny.

It's funny we communicate on line and ask if we are open books. When I communicate w/my physical friends online I see things in them that I might not see when we are all together and the group dynamics take hold. One time I had to inform someone "I don't speak my whole mind." A book should make you think a bit differently than when you first read it. A book is a person in crystalized form. I am not completely straight forward all the time and don't expect you to be either. We do have feelings to consider...and everyone deserves the benefit of the doubt.

But if I am with a person and feel that I am always holding back and not saying what I want to and thinking about what I shoulda, woulda, coulda said in that time. I realize the person is not really good for me. Something is up the repression is on and so I usually will not continue that type of relationship. Yes I am a book easy to read. I will allow you to read me if you allow me to read you. And if you try to sabatoge me my Scorpio Moon will remember it forever. And my Libra Moon will forgive you and try again. Until
