Stand tall and make eye contact when you talk to him. He’ll recognize the confidence in your posture. When it comes to approaching him, don’t be shy! Stride right over and engage him in conversation—he’ll appreciate your boldness.
You might tell him about your 5- or 10-year plans to advance in your chosen field. If you’ve spearheaded any projects recently, you might brag about those as well. If you’re still in school, you might tell him about your plans after graduation.
Aries guys love to learn and experience new things, so he’ll be thrilled if you drop a little-known fact about the history of the local coffee shop or talk about the science behind brewing coffee.
Maybe you have a thing for that odd experimental band or go wild for sand painting. You’ll surprise your Ram and give him something new to experience, which he always enjoys.
Feel free to tease him and talk a little smack throughout the game. Aries guys love a little playful banter. Just make sure you can take it from him as well!
Compliment him on things he does rather than just on his looks—he’ll appreciate it a lot more. He’ll also see that you’re really focusing on him, which he loves.
Be forewarned that an Aries always plays to win. Whatever sport you choose, he’s not going to go easy on you—not that you’d have it any other way.
Stay in your comfort zone by not bringing up any topics that are really controversial or that you feel passionate about. That way it won’t bother you too much if he disagrees with you.
For example, if you’re shopping for groceries together, you might put him in charge of meat while you get the produce. If you’re deciding which restaurant to go to for dinner, you might give him a list of 3 places that you like. That way, even though he gets to choose, you can guarantee his choice will be one of your favorites.
Essentially, you set the parameters for him and then give him the freedom to act within those parameters. For example, if you’re planning a date, you might choose the date and time and then let him decide what you’re going to do. You also give him more freedom by making backup plans. Did his spur-of-the-moment romantic picnic gets rained out? That’s okay—you made backup reservations at his favorite restaurant.
You’re too independent to let him have complete control over your life, but that’s fine with him—he doesn’t want it. He has an independent streak as well and doesn’t want a partner who relies on him to make every decision.
