Aries in Romance
Your natural liveliness and positive fun-loving outlook make you a wonderful partner.
Falling in love at first sight is not unusual for you, which has the potential to be disastrous if a long commitment is entered into without any real thinking beforehand. A passionate lover, you need an active sex-life to feel fulfilled. You are very aware of your own needs within a relationship, and may need to be reminded about your partner's needs from time to time. You can also feel restless within a permanent relationship, but by making sure that you both participate in the same activities can alleviate this.
Taurus in Romance
Taureans are known for their charm and good looks. You enjoy the good life and don't mind spending a great deal of time and money wooing a loved one. You are a very sexual creature as well as sensual, and make a marvellous lover both in and out of the bedroom. Taurus is one of the most romantic of all the signs. However, once a relationship is established, possessiveness can be a big problem creating a claustrophobic atmosphere. Another problem can be the Taurean spending too much time making money to provide for the lifestyle and the partner, so that the partner may feel neglected.
Gemini in Romance
Once you fall in love, you are quick to declare your love. However, you fear boredom so much that it is not unusual that you have two or more relationships going on at once.
You are an irrepressible flirt. You need a partner who can provide you with plenty of mental stimulation, be your friend and share many interests in common with you. You don't mind if your partner questions what you do, because this promotes the type of verbal sparring which you love. You also quite enjoy arguments, or 'discussions', for the same reason.
For your part, you will always keep your partner on his or her toes with your lively mind and busy lifestyle. Your partner will have to keep up with your sudden changes of direction, and he or she will never know what is coming next as you want to experience anything new. Although there is usually good communication between you and your partner, you find it hard expressing your deepest feelings. Rather than heavy emotional scenes, you prefer sharp verbal battles.
Cancer in Romance
You are a friend for life-loyal, protective and intuitive. On the up-side, you are a true romantic, using your fertile imagination to express your feelings. You are very caring and nurturing. Taken too far, however, this can turn into claustrophobic over-protection and your over-emotionalism can provoke dramatic scenes. The sexual aspect of the relationship is enhanced by the intertwining of sensuality, imagination and intuition.
You work hard to make a relationship permanent, and are able to express a great deal of true meaningful love within marriage. Sometimes you can get so engrossed in running the home, that you forget your own interests and needs. You show your tenacity by the way you hang onto your partner and try to keep the status quo; you don't adapt readily to changes in the relationship. Your partner also needs to remember that you never forget any past action, good or bad. If the relationship comes to an end, you feel devastated, and find it extremely hard to let the other person go.
Leo in Romance
You can be a little gullible and take people at face value, rather than looking behind the façade. However, having said that, you don't tend to make true friends very quickly.
You are a very affectionate person, who, when you fall in love, will fall good and hard. Your heart will be broken many times, and will need time to mend. This, in part, stems from the fact that your full expression of love and passion tends to overwhelm a weaker partner. You do tend to expect an awful lot from your partner. Although you want a strong partner who you can look up to and admire, you also want to dominate him or her, which can prove tricky. Although you can be stubborn and bossy, you take great pride in your partner's success and will help them to reach their full potential.
Virgo in Romance
Where your friends are concerned, you keep them active, although your boundless energy can be quite wearing, and, at times, you can seem a little too critical.
When you fall in love and it is reciprocated, your lack of self-confidence doesn't easily allow you to believe that the other person can see anything in you. You find that you are unable to express yourself as fully or as rewardingly as you would like, which can lead to inhibitions within the relationship, both emotionally and physically. You have a strong romantic nature and your partner needs to be able to help you express it. You are a good communicator, and this is the key to a good relationship, but watch the tendency to over-criticise. Your partner will find that a relationship with you is never boring.
You also need to relax into the relationship and not spend so much time worrying about the mundane aspects, such as what to eat next, where you are living and how clean the house is. You work very hard for your lover, almost too hard, and it can become a cover-up for your inhibitions.
Libra in Romance
You are the true romantic of the zodiac. Because you long to share your life with someone else, you fall easily in love without thinking, and often into marriage as well. When an emotional relationship breaks up, you feel very hurt and disillusioned. You may find yourself in a dilemma over which prospective partner would be the most suitable. However, once you are committed in a happy relationship, you flourish.
You need constant reassurances of love from your partner and may pick quarrels simply to elicit the declarations of love in the patching up afterwards. The issue itself is immaterial. Needless to say, this can have disastrous results if you or your partner are not aware of it and cannot keep it within bounds.
Scorpio in Romance
When you fall in love, you fall deeply and intensely. You pursue the object of your love with great passion and determination until you have them. Although romance can be a rocky road for you, you enter marriage with the strong determination to make it last. You need fulfilling interests outside the home but may not feel comfortable allowing your partner to do the same. Jealousy can get in the way, whether of an actual person or simply of the time that the partner spends away from you. The answer to this is to have joint interests and ambitions where you aim your energy towards a positive goal and inspire your partner to excel as well.
You can be a very demanding lover, but a very understanding and intuitive one as well. Sexual compatibility is of above average importance for the success of any romantic relationship. If love goes sour, you may have trouble accepting this and letting go of the relationship. However, once the relationship has been severed, there is no going back. It has to be all or nothing for you.
Sagittarius in Romance
As a friend you can always be relied upon to be lots of fun and never boring. Your less energetic friends can calm you down and help you think seriously and deeply about all types of issues.
As a partner, you are passionate, able to express warm feelings and keep the flame of love alive, and hardly jealous at all. However, you don't always seem to take the relationship seriously and can be a little offhand at times with your bright and breezy style. You absolutely need an equally enthusiastic partner who will remain interesting, because if your relationship becomes too regulated and routine, you will feel restless and want to break out or away, probably in a sudden manner. Your partner also needs to share your intellectual interests. It usually works out best if your partner is of equal intellectual ability.
Capricorn in Romance
Since you fear rejection and hate putting yourself into a vulnerable position, declarations of undying love may take a while coming. But once you have decided, you are deeply committed to that person, although you may have problems relaxing enough to fully reveal your very deep and sincere love. There is always a certain amount of caution present through all the stages of courtship, which can be misinterpreted as being cold and uncaring. A strict upbringing might also contribute to this inability to relax and let the emotions flow freely, but once you notice your sense of humour emerging, you know you're on the right track.
The boss's daughter (or son) is never safe around the very ambitious Capricorn. Many Capricorns are quite happy to marry for money or status. Ambition can also be a problem later in the marriage as you tend to bring work home or alternatively spend many late nights working in the office. Although all this hard work is aimed at providing the very best for your family, you need to make sure that you do relax and spend a lot of quality fun time with your family, so that they are still around and happy when you do bring home the big prizes after all those long years of hard work.
Aquarius in Romance
Your partner can expect an exciting and fulfilling relationship with you, never quite knowing what to expect next. When you fall in love, you fall hard. And although you can be extremely romantic at times, you do tend to believe that one declaration of love is enough. After all, your feelings haven't changed, why do you need to keep repeating them? For the assured success of a long-term relationship, you may need to open up more and be more forthcoming about your emotions and be prepared to discuss them.
You are wonderfully kind and considerate, but you do find it difficult giving up complete independence and freedom. This can surface in your unpredictability and stubbornness, which you may need to temper. Your partner will have to respect your need for a certain amount of independence within the marriage, and realise that he or she may not always be able to get as close to you emotionally as they may wish.
Your choice of a partner may be quite unconventional, perhaps outside your ethnic group.
Pisces in Romance
You make a sensual, generous, affectionate and understanding partner, as long as you let your defences down and throw your protective disguises away. You work hard to make the marriage work, but if you feel that it is getting too difficult, your natural reaction is evasiveness, vagueness and deception. You prefer to take the easy way out of a tricky situation. You do have a tendency to pass the buck when it comes to who is at fault, and not be too concerned about the consequences of your actions. Your partner needs to encourage you to be more practical and decisive.
You are a very passionate person, but not in an overly overt or forceful way. Good communication and shared interests are very important in all your relationships.
