How To Make An Aquarius Man Feel Guilty

Aquarius men can be emotionally detached and a bit insensitive at times. They don’t go out of their way to criticize or hurt people but may feel justified if they do.

Being upset won’t get you anywhere with an Aquarius man. He might think you’re being too sensitive or that you’re acting unreasonably.

Instead, pull away from him. Make it clear that what he did was not okay, and then detach. He’ll know he messed up if you’re no longer acting like your typical self or if you suddenly start avoiding him.

Don’t Be Overly Emotional

When an Aquarius man hurts you, do not become overly emotional about it in front of him. That won’t make him feel guilty most of the time!

Aquarius men tend to be emotionally detached. They don’t like big emotional displays and typically convince themselves that everyone else is too sensitive when they have dramatic emotional reactions to things.

If you get too emotional, your Aquarius man might insist that you’re too emotional or behaving irrationally. He won’t feel guilty if you cry or get explosively angry with him.

If you remain calm after he’s hurt you and then proceed to ignore him, do things without him, or calmly call him out for his actions, your Aquarius man might feel guilty.

If an Aquarius man can’t convince himself that you’re just overreacting, he might recognize that he’s done something wrong.

Ignore Him

Leaving an Aquarius man alone is the best action in many scenarios. If you want your Aquarius man to feel guilty after he’s done something wrong, ignoring him is sometimes the best thing to do.

You have to make it evident that you’re ignoring your Aquarius man on purpose, though. He won’t assume you’re ignoring him because you missed a single text message.

Avoid him at parties. If you two live together, refuse to speak with him or interact with him in any way. Walk out of the room when he’s in the middle of talking to you or sit at the table on your phone while you two have dinner.

Your Aquarius man will start to feel guilty once it’s apparent that you’re avoiding him. He’ll know he messed up when you won’t talk to him or acknowledge his presence.

Cancel Plans

Having no contact with an Aquarius man after he’s hurt you is sometimes best. If you two have plans, cancel them. Don’t let him think things will just go back to normal!

Many Aquarius men don’t feel guilty when they hurt someone because there are no consequences. It’s common for people just to move on and forgive them without any apology or change in behavior.

Make it clear that you do not want to see your Aquarius man. If you two have an important event coming up, don’t go with him. You don’t need to keep up appearances to save his pride.

Be sure to tell your Aquarius man why you’re canceling your plans. He’ll feel guilty if he knows he’s the reason, but he might not assume you’re canceling because of him if you don’t explicitly say that.

Cancel all plans with your Aquarius man until you’re ready to forgive him or until he’s done something to make amends.

Act Cold & Aloof

It’s common for an Aquarius man to be emotionally distant. If you are usually emotionally open, close yourself off. It’ll be obvious something is wrong if you’re suddenly cold and aloof toward him.

Give him a taste of his own medicine and pay him back for every time your Aquarius man was cold and aloof toward you. He will immediately know he’s messed up if you’re not your usual warm and bubbly self!

Do not open back up until it’s clear that your Aquarius man feels guilty. You may even want to act distant until he addresses the issue or offers you an apology.

Your Aquarius man might expect you to start acting normal after a couple of days but only do that if he’s made it clear that he feels bad about whatever he did.

Remind Him Of What He Did

Will an Aquarius man feel bad for hurting you? If he cares about you, he will. He won’t want to acknowledge that he did anything wrong, though.

Sometimes, ignoring your Aquarius man is the best thing to do. Other times, getting in his face and reminding him of his actions is the best thing to do.

Aquarius men don’t like to deal with confrontation when they are the ones who did something wrong. They will avoid the person they hurt until it seems like they’ve gotten over whatever Aquarius did.

Do not let your Aquarius man forget that he hurt you. Don’t let him avoid confrontation or the consequences of his actions. If he hasn’t apologized or made things right, remind him of what he did whenever you see him.

If your Aquarius man asks why you’re still upset, be honest with him. He’ll feel guilty when it’s apparent that you aren’t letting go of whatever he did.

Do Things Without Him

Your Aquarius man won’t necessarily mind if you do things without him sometimes. That’s normal. If you do things without him that you two usually do together, he’ll notice something is wrong.

You need to make it obvious that you’re excluding him on purpose. Your Aquarius man won’t feel guilty if you go to a bar without him once. Constantly go to his favorite bar or restaurant without him instead.

Go to a movie you two have been talking about by yourself, or take a friend with you. If your Aquarius man asks why you went without him, make it clear that you didn’t want to go with him.

Your Aquarius man may feel guilty for hurting you when he sees that you no longer want to hang out with him. He’ll feel bad if he knows that you’re explicitly avoiding him and going places without him.

Call Him Out

You might need to call your Aquarius man out to make him feel guilty if nothing else is working.

Your Aquarius man might not always notice your efforts to make him feel guilty. He might also purposely ignore his wrongdoings or pretend everything is fine. He won’t be able to if you publicly call him out or address him directly.

Make it very clear that your Aquarius man messed up. Tell him what he did wrong. Remind him what the consequences of his actions are. You don’t need to be nice about it either!

If your Aquarius man is acting selfishly, call him selfish. If he’s being rude, inconsiderate, or self-absorbed, tell him that! You don’t need to spare his feelings.

Call him out in front of others if he still doesn’t feel bad for what he did. Tell your friends what he did or talk about his poor actions in public. That might get your point across.

Hurt His Pride

Do Aquarius men feel guilty when they’ve hurt someone they love? Many of them do, but they tend to hide it well. You can make an Aquarius man feel terrible for hurting you by injuring his pride.

Aquarius men pride themselves on many things, including their intellect and humanitarian natures. You can hurt his pride by insulting his intelligence or implying that he doesn’t care about people or the world around him.

You can also hurt his pride by telling others what he did to hurt you. Talk to mutual friends or air your grievances publicly. That will injure his pride and make him feel guilty!

Will an Aquarius man apologize to you after he’s hurt you? He might if you force the issue. If you’ve already hurt his pride, it will be difficult for him to maintain that pride by continuing to avoid apologizing.

Don’t Forgive Him

Will an Aquarius man say sorry after he’s done something wrong? Many will not. They are far too prideful to apologize! Most of the time, they expect others to move on the same way they would.

If you want your Aquarius man to feel guilty, do not forgive him, especially not without an apology!

Your relationship with an Aquarius man might suffer if you refuse to forgive him, but it will also suffer if he always expects forgiveness without doing anything to earn it.

Tell your Aquarius man that he needs to actually apologize and make amends for what he’s done. Make it clear that you will not forgive him until he does so. If he didn’t feel terrible before, that will definitely make him feel bad.

Your Aquarius man might need a wake-up call. He needs to understand that he can’t just hurt people and expect things to go away magically.
