#AstroSpeak Does Your Zodiac Sign Affect The Way You Love?

by Neha Baid · July 17, 2015

You inherit the traits of the Zodiac sign that you belong to, which in turn dictate how you go about your life – including how you love. While sometimes such characteristics are not very prominent, they are never absent.

Different traits of each sign manifest themselves in different situations. It could be the way you handle situations, the way you handle stress, the way you react to people and obstructions, and most of all in the way you love. Why most of all? Because love is an animal instinct. There is barely any holding back and people do what their inner-self and subconscious tells them to.

Here is how each of the signs loves when they do. While some can be romantic as ever, there are others who are submissive, and there are also signs that are rather authoritative and bossy. Read on to find out what kind of lover you want, or why your lover is the way they are.

Aries: The ones with specific needs

An Aries is always young at heart – it doesn’t matter if they have fallen in love at the age of 50, they are going to love you like it is their first love and will be crazy about you. They are impulsive, enthusiastic, playful, physically intimate, and free! But they can also be dominating, selfish, and argumentative. They are the ones who are so involved in everything that they have no time for relationships really.

But when you do get an Aries to date you, be really sure of what they want and be able to give it to them. Else, the bigger probability is that they will break your heart.

Taurus: The ones who love perfection

This naturally talented sign leaves nothing unturned in the relationship. Often gifted with more than talent, these are the people who fill up the relationship with music, good food, colors, and many other things. But when it comes to romance, they are the ones who will want everything to be stereotypically perfect. Their notion of love is aligned with what you see in popular media.

When you love a Taurus, romantic dates, candle-lit dinners, warm bubble baths, flowery romantic scents, and staring at the night sky are rather regular activities. That is what they love to do, and will encourage you to do the same. Be sure to be well groomed and try to bring perfection to yourself.

Gemini: The ones who won’t commit easily

Free-willed, versatile, and looking for variety is what Gemini is like. They like spice and the variations of love. They are friendly, positive, and also really good with people. Take them to a party, and they would have connected with many more people than the others in the room. All of this gives them the bad reputation of being a cheater and fearing commitment. They like to jump from one thing to another, and therefore can never settle with one person.

If you are with a Gemini, you will have to keep running to catch up with them and be your interesting best all the time. To put it simply, you need to be interested in the stuff they like, and you will also have to be really interesting generally if you want your Gemini for yourself.

Cancer: The one who suffers in love

This is an emotional sign – they love unconditionally and need unconditional love in return. They are the emotional fools who will do everything their partner asks out of them; they trust, support, handle, take care, understand, and even sometimes tolerate without even realizing it. Cancer will generally choose a partner who needs so that they can give. It makes them happy to give all the time.

If involved with them, the way you love and want to be loved is going to be the way the relationship works. You won’t need to care if they are happy, because they will be if you are. This is why most Cancers end up suffering in love.

Leo: The ones who are lucky

These are the ones who are not going to change for their partner. They like it the way they like it, and are really warm as well. They are the masters of their own minds and you cannot control them. You can make suggestions to them, but the minute you start to debate and argue, they are going to walk right into the sunset without you. Also, they love luxury, so you are going to be going everything king-size!

If you are dating a Leo, be sure to not compete and anger them. While they can be bold and crazy, they are also very easily hurt, which they will never show in front of you, while they curl up and cry to their pillow.

Virgo: The ones who love perfectly

This is a perfectionist sign. They are the ones who pay attention to every little detail and strive to attain perfection in everything they do. This applies to their love life also. They are very picky about their partners, and look for the perfectionist who will get them and their deal with doing everything right. Their idea of a good time is probably to clean out their closet. This is the sign that is going to ensure that you get all your stuff done, and soon.

If you are in love with a Virgo, well, you need to be prepared for helping out with the cleaning and also the perfect relationship that is coming your way.

Libra: The ones who are literally in “love”

This sign is ruled by Venus, the planet of sex and romance. These are the people who love the idea of love. They not only love their partner, but indulge them. They adore every little detail and characteristic of their partner. Being emotionally expressive and approachable, they are also really social people. They are the kinds to have tons of friends and people to meet with.

If you are with one of them, you are going to be able to talk to them very openly and easily. They are the ones who will listen and also understand. But you will have to know that there are going to be other people in their life that you cannot get rid of.

Scorpio: The ones who can be everything at once

This is the sign that you can fear when you are dating them. They are the people who can be moody, stubborn, impatient, insensitive, emotional, or even all of these things. They are often considered to be jerks and have a bad reputation as a person. But when they fall in love, they need someone that they respect so that they can head in the right direction.

If you happen to fall for one of them, you need to ensure that you are powerful enough to hold them back when they are being unreasonably aggressive.

Sagittarius: The ones with split personalities

People under this Zodiac are calm, composed, morally inclined, ethical, honest, and idealistic but also impatient and rather crazy when in love. They can cross oceans for the ones they love, and will also sacrifice anything that is asked of them. They will also need a lot more space than others when in a commitment. They crave that thrill in life, and need to be in an elevated state of mind at all times.

If you are in a relationship with a Sagittarius, you need to understand that they need a lot of space for themselves and with the people they love. They will also ask you for your time, because you are very important to them.

Capricorn: The ones who are misunderstood

This is another sign after Scorpio that is full of contradictions. These are the people who are actually sensitive, receptive, and humble, but are known only for the mistakes that they make and the little human things everyone does. But that doesn’t mean you should ignore this sign completely. You will only have to see past the layers of the Capricorn and you will see a person who is the best in their work and also probably loves you to kingdom come.

If you are with one, a sound piece of advice is to not compare them to anyone else negatively, and to ensure that they are satisfied with the life that they are leading.

Aquarius: The ones who are all over the place

Enthusiastic, crazy, versatile, eccentric, dreamy, individualistic, and loyal to everything they lay their hands on. Because there is so much going on there, they sometimes do not even realize that they are in love, but whatever they think it is, they keep that relationship on top of everything else. They are also really social and will have a lot of friends that you might have to put up with – to the point where you start to feel like one of them and less of a partner.

If you are involved with an Aquarius, you will have to give them a lot of space as they are interested in everything, but also know when you need to pull the strings back to ensure that you get what you need as well.

Pisces: The ones who lose themselves

This is the last sign, and the ones who are capable of losing themselves in love. They are overtly accommodating, overtly giving, and are overtly satisfied with the little that they get. They are highly emotional and have problems dealing with those emotions. Pisces kids take their time to settle into a relationship and even get into one, but when they are in it, they are good to go. They are also rather attention-seeking and need to be reassured from time to time.

If you are in a relationship with one, ensure that you give them their regular dose of attention and reassurance, which will mean the world to them.

Well, now that you know the way you love, you can either tweak it or come to terms with it. Good luck loving!
