How does Aquarius take criticism?

Question

I know an Aquarius who is a nice guy but lately he's been so full of himself he's starting to annoy the people around him. I'd always been able to tease him jokingly because he takes it well and he's a fun guy, but I would really like to tell him how his arrogant behavior is irritating everyone.

I think he will take it well on the outside, because he's never been one to hold anything against anyone, but I don't know if Aquarius are the kinds that will let criticism eat them up from the inside. Do they learn and let it go, or do they take it to heart and go crazy thinking about it?

Answer 1

Not very well. Aquarius can be so accepting and open of others, if neglected from rejection they become baffled and bewildered like, "What did I do"? If this happens, they can choose for themselves to disappear and not be seen for a while.

Answer 2

Aquarius people do not take criticism at all. They just ignore it because they think that they are right. They take criticism badly.

Answer 3

I don't take criticism too well and it's NOT because I think I'm perfect or always right. It's because I'm super sensitive and even if someone is saying it out of concern or just trying to be a good friend I gotta admit it stings a little. I always try to see where the person is coming from though, especially if it's coming from a loved one. I will never let it show on the outside that it hurts and I usually try to get over it really quickly by absorbing what I was told and then letting it go. There are two types of Aquarians that I know of and they both lie on either side of the extremes. One type always seem to be super detached and can usually handle any criticism well. Then there are the other really sensitive ones, like me, that will try to accept criticism but will be hurting just a little on the inside when they hear it..lol. I guess it depends on which kind you're dealing with.

he is been put in a position were he has to chose: either he gives orders or he takes them , obviously he chose to give them , but he doesn't likes either of them so you will see it's just temporarily

Answer 5

Don't even try to criticize an Aquarius he always think that u don't like his actions in a badly way while u may be the opposite but u r just telling them that u don't like something in them just to fix it and u can continue they can often use their words like daggers, expressing their frustrations.

As u r a Pisces u will learn to criticize without hurting Aquarius feelings and avoid their madness when u say such things

Aquarius are Hilarious so as u said u can make fun of the things u want to criticize and say it in a funny way they will accept it and love u really and they will learn what u want to say.

Answer 6

Aquarius are often too busy focused on tomorrow to worry about today... though with their high expectations and goals, If you hurt the ego too much they might just get over you and find new friends.

Aquarius has a habit of acting aloof, completely tuning out and not taking time to explain what is going on, which only creates confusion

It can be difficult to know just how sensitive to criticism Lunar Aquarians are, simply because they hide it so well!

Answer 7

They don't even believe anyone that tries to criticize them because they think they are perfect !!! They'll KEEP arguing with you until they make YOU look stupid! I know that because I know some Aquarians  ...

No offense!

Answer 8

they don't. they will just ignore it, they think they are right if it is a male Aquarius he will think you are trying to put him down. if it is the female Aquarius ,she will dismiss it and think you are jealous of her. either way they will make sure everyone know you are wrong to think otherwise.god forbid that they are less than perfect!

Answer 9

badly, but then who does take criticism well, not me
