17 Major Mistakes Aquarius Women Make in Their Relationships ...

Zodiac signs can really open up your eyes to your very own flaws, especially when it comes to relationships. If you are an Aquarius, you might not realize exactly what mistakes you are making in relationships. Take a look below and see what you might be able to avoid!

1 You Require a Hell of a Lot of Freedom

Being told what to do in a relationship is not something you'll ever put up with – you also have a problem committing, but we'll get into that.

***

Your spirit thrives on independence and unexpected adventures, much like the free-flowing air that represents your zodiac sign. If your partner fails to understand your need for personal space and spontaneity, friction is inevitable. It's not that you're incapable of love or devotion, but rather that you envision a relationship that compliments your free-spirited lifestyle, not one that hinders it. Your significant other must grasp that your autonomy is non-negotiable, and without that understanding, you'll feel caged, leading to restlessness and, quite possibly, a hasty exit. Spontaneous road trips over Sunday brunch? That's more your style.
