And so you managed to catch the Aries of your dreams, but now you are probably wondering how to keep his interest alive over time. Since men of this zodiac sign tend to desire adventures and have a rather limited attention span, the task is likely to prove difficult; but if you can, it will certainly be worth it!
Steps
Part 1 of 4: Keep the relationship alive
Step 1. Avoid the routine
To put it simply, an Aries loses interest the moment the relationship becomes monotonous or too overwhelming. If your relationship with him seems to be falling into the vicious circle of routine, shuffle the tables to keep him from getting bored.
We must be realistic: there is no way to ensure that each day spent together can be completely different from the others. However, if you see each other every day, you should propose something new at least a couple of times a week to break the routine
Step 2. Keep up with him
If you haven't figured it out yet, your Aries man loves dating full of variety and adventure. If you want to keep his interest in you alive, you need to keep up. On the off chance that he asks you what you feel like doing, opt for an evening out and about partying rather than staying indoors.
If you really have to spend the evening at home, at least try to make it as interesting as possible. Maybe you can cook something exotic, using different ingredients than usual, or rent a DVD about Latin American dance
Step 3. Move quickly
If your relationship is still in its infancy, you need to seize the moment. Aries don't like to take things slow. Be prepared to drop it at your feet quickly or never.
Obviously, try to be honest with yourself about how ready you are to move the relationship forward. He may already be on the verge of taking you to bed, but if you still don't feel like it, don't let his enthusiasm lead you to do something you're not sure about. Instead, if you too feel ready to take the next step, proceed with confidence and without hesitation
Step 4. Surprise him
Even if the Aries man is used to taking the reins of situations in hand, he will appreciate a woman who manages to keep him at bay in turn. When he least expects it, surprise him with something new and exciting. If you are able to give him energy and positivity, he will want to be with you for as long as possible.
On a weekend, for example, you might suggest that they try something like bungee jumping or rock climbing, especially if they have expressed an interest in this kind of activity. You don't need to drag him there blindfolded: the mere fact of proposing the idea will already be a surprise in itself
Step 5. Give him exciting experiences
When you want to give your Aries man a gift, take him out on adventures rather than buying him something concrete. He will be much more likely to appreciate the excitement of a new experience rather than the usual old pendant.
Usually, two seats in the front row for his favorite team's game or a weekend camping are better gifts than something as small as a new CD
Part 2 of 4: Give him his Spaces
Step 1. Let him do his thing
An Aries man needs to feel free and independent, so it doesn't mean that he always invites you to share his latest adventure with him. Despite everything, try not to hold him back. A clingy woman almost always risks turning off Aries' interest.
Don't be too downcast if he seems to prefer a night out with friends over you. An Aries is not the type to take it for a long time, they will not send out ambiguous signals to let you know that your story is over. If he loses interest in you, he'll be honest about it. Therefore you do not need to make a thousand paranoia, wondering if going out with friends means that between you is over
Step 2. Try to be accommodating
Aries men tend to be very bossy and don't appreciate being told what to do. In other words, you will have to let him take control of the situation more often than not.
If you want to do things your way, you need to propose them in a way that your significant other can then claim credit
Step 3. Resist the urge to keep him on a leash
Unfortunately, Aries generally have a tendency to look around and may flirt with others regardless of whether you are an official couple or not. This may lead you to want to keep your man locked up in the house or to hang on to him when you go out, but then you risk only pushing him away.
If you notice that her gaze actually begins to wander towards other women, avoid direct confrontation and instead focus her attention back on you. Try to get caught while making sweet eyes to another: you will see that the competitive nature of the Aries will take over and he will return to focus his energies to woo you
Step 4. Challenge him to earn your attention
If an Aries feels suffocated, it is easy for them to lose interest. Conversely, if you challenge him to get your attention, instead of worrying about keeping his, he will almost certainly accept the challenge.
It is important to let him win in the end. You may be indifferent at first, but when you see him starting to make an effort to draw your attention to himself, let him know that his efforts are working
Part 3 of 4: Maintain Physical Contact
Step 1. Stay active
Most Aries love relationships where the partner is as active in the bedroom as they are outside. Athletic activities are a good way to bond with him, especially if they involve some kind of challenge.
- Engage in a one-on-one match, basketball or other competitive game.
- Keep in mind that the Aries man hates routine, so your physical activities should not adhere to a predefined program. In other words, going for a run every day after work may not be the best thing to keep her interested. The activities and schedules vary a little from time to time.
Step 2. Keep his pace
In terms of physical intimacy, the Aries man generally does not need to be persuaded. Whether you are already intimate or not, you can still expect him to speed up his moves and the atmosphere to warm up in the blink of an eye. You'll have to keep up with him if you want to keep him from getting bored.
For your own sake, you better keep fit. Otherwise, you will find yourself exhausted even before he begins to tire
Step 3. Provoke it to win you over
Unfortunately, Aries tends to be a little selfish in physical intimacy. If you want to have a say, from time to time pretend you're not particularly impressed. That way you will leverage his love of challenges and, as a result, he will end up paying more attention to you.
Occasionally, let him know that his moves have no effect on you. So he will be eager to find out what works for you and probably won't stop looking for new approaches until he has achieved his goal
Step 4. Don't be afraid to try something new
As with all other aspects of life, an Aries needs to vary. If he wants to try something new in bed, let him. If you always feed him "the same old story", he'll get tired quickly.
If you're not comfortable with something, though, you need to be direct and clearly tell him to stop. Once an Aries gets an idea in their head, they will go on to pursue it, even without explicit permission. Only a clear and round no will be able to stop it
Part 4 of 4: Cheer for him
Step 1. Support him in his experiences
Since Aries are prone to love emotions and novelty, they tend to have more experiences than others. Whether or not he invites you to share his latest adventure, let him know you'll be cheering on him anyway.
- This means being present in all aspects of his life, be it new pastimes or new business ventures.
- If he welcomes you on his adventure, join him with enthusiasm. If he doesn't, show as much interest as you can without pressuring him to invite you.
Step 2. Involve him in occasional discussions
Precisely because the Aries man always wants to be right, he also needs to be given the opportunity to prove he has it, in order to feel completely satisfied. You can and should challenge him from time to time, but remember that most of the time you have to let him win.
Of course, if you are convinced that you are right about a certain issue, you must not allow them to put their feet in your head. Showing yourself hesitant is not a good solution, and neither is letting him win when it is obvious that you are right
Step 3. Never belittle it
The ego of an Aries often needs to be flattered. If you are used to embarrassing or correcting him in public, know that you are probably causing serious damage to his self-love and, as a result, this will cause his feelings to vanish for you.
Teasing him about middle school photos is absolutely out of the question, and laughing at his mistake in front of his friends or family will almost certainly start a bad fight, seriously hurting his feelings. As authoritarian as Aries typically are, they are actually quite sensitive as well
Step 4. Persuade him with sweet words and loving gestures
It's true that an Aries is mostly impatient and independent, but if you want the relationship to last long, you'll need to encourage them to grow emotionally. The best way to do this is with obvious and tangible expressions of affection. Deep down, the Aries man is afraid of rejection, so constant reassurance will work in the long run.
Don't be afraid to overdo the reassurances of affection. Frequent text messages like "I love you" or "I can't wait to see you" are fine, unless he tells you to slow down or stop. Likewise, letting him know you've been thinking about it all day will be a great compliment to him and will generally be highly appreciated
Step 5. Be direct
If you want to keep an Aries interested, you need to be honest with them. Throwing him a few challenges from time to time is very important, but remember that he is not a fan of riddles, so if he asks you what you want, you will have to be firm and give him an honest answer.
