A Quick Guide to your Romantic Style and Compatibility
ARIES
Your Romantic Style: Extremely passionate, sexual fulfilment is very important to you. Adventurous and energetic in love, your enthusiasm is catching. You can be rather selfish, though, and a partner needs to be able to deal with your quick temper and impulsive tantrums.
Ideal Partners: Leo shares your fiery outlook on life and is big-headed enough to survive your temper too. Sagittarius shares your sense of adventure and has a laid-back attitude towards your impulsive streak.
Not So Good: Libra, whose placid nature is no match for your energetic demands, and Aries – too much of a good thing can only end in fireworks.
TAURUS
Your Romantic Style: You value peace, harmony and stability and look toward the long-term rather than short-lived excitement. You like someone who makes you feel emotionally secure, and you give plenty of affection and generosity in return. Beware of jealousy and possessiveness though.
Ideal Partners: Virgo’s modest nature appeals to you and you enjoy their hidden sensuality. Capricorn values security as highly as you do and is sensible enough to deal with your jealousy.
Not So Good: Aquarius is far too avant-garde for your liking, and also doesn’t pay you enough emotional attention. Scorpio’s inner turmoil and soul-searching disturbs your tranquillity and worries you a great deal.
GEMINI
Your Romantic Style: Flirtatious, flirtatious, flirtatious! Your are lively and fun to be with, and enjoy intellectual rapport just as much as physical attraction. Not entirely at home with your emotions, however, you tend to over-rationalise your romantic feelings, so you need a partner who’s not going to insist on roses and sweet nothings.
Ideal Partners: Aquarius can debate with you until the early hours and is not frightened by your lack of touchy-feely romance, or threatened by your flirts. Gemini – twin souls! The two of you are ideally matched, just make sure that you remember to flirt with each other sometimes too!
Not So Good: Pisces needs more traditional romance than you can offer, and their bubbling emotions can irritate you. Cancer loves home too much to be the life and soul of the party, and your flirting hurts this sensitive soul deeply.
CANCER
Your Romantic Style: You long to look after your partner, and are wonderfully caring and sentimental. However, your own emotional tensions often result in a bit of a sulky attitude, and you partners can find your affections a little bit suffocating.
Ideal Partners: Deep and meaningful Scorpio intrigues you and shares your watery depths, as does Pisces, who’s dreamy nature is the perfect foil for your compassion.
Not So Good: Another Cancer is likely to result in both of you outdoing the other in the sentimentality stakes. Sagittarius likes their freedom too much for your liking and can be rather cutting when brushing aside your help.
LEO
Your Romantic Style: Generous and warm-hearted you like to shower your loved one with affection and are very demonstrative and affectionate. You like to be seduced in luxury and generally enjoy the more refined pleasures of love. You can also be quite domineering, though, so you need a partner who is prepared to stand up to you.
Ideal Partners: Aries can give as good as they get and will enjoy your natural exuberance whilst also inspiring you to greater things. Taurus loves luxury almost as much as you do and won’t take any nonsense either.
Not So Good: Libra, although sharing your refined tastes, will not really provide the balance you need, and Virgo is likely to be very submissive – not at all healthy in an on-going relationship.
VIRGO
Your Romantic Style: Your genuine modesty can be truly charming and you seem to play hard to get, even if not deliberately so. You are kind and devoted to your loved one, but you must watch your tendency to nag. Setting oh-so-high standards for yourself and for others can mean that you are permanently disappointed.
Ideal Partners: Sagittarius enjoys the chase and is attracted to your ethereal demeanour, whilst broadening your horizons in every sense. Capricorn appreciates your intellectual abilities and shares the same values as you, and you each bring out the earthy sensuality in the other.
Not So Good: Gemini and you will probably irritate the socks off each other, or not be able to stop talking long enough to allow romance to develop! Cancer is just on a different wavelength, really, you have very little in common.
LIBRA
Your Romantic Style: Very much a ‘partnership’ person, often you don’t feel complete unless in a relationship. That’s fine, but take care not to fall into trap of any old relationship being better than none! A pure romantic, you are also sociable and generally charming and easy-going.
Ideal Partners: Leo likes your style, especially if their career requires a diplomatic, charming spouse! Aquarius is a good match too, as you complement one another – together you can be very progressive, and a great team, and you are self-sufficient enough to provide your own romance without waiting for Aquarius to do it for you!
Not So Good: Cancer is a bad influence on you, and vice versa – you would live on the edge of a fantasy world, which, whilst fun for a while, would soon take it’s toll on both of you. Aries has too much energy for your taste, and they would be irritated with your laid back approach to life.
SCORPIO
Your Romantic Style: Powerful and passionate, you are a real emotional force. People often find something magnetic about you which they can’t quite explain, and a Scorpio’s sex drive is legendary! You can be very jealous and resentful, however, and you need a partner who can respond to you at a deep level – superficial matches are not for you.
Ideal Partners: Aries matches your power, and you spark their protective instincts. Virgo is also a surprisingly good match for you – you can stir their depths of passion and their deep-thinking brand of common sense can bring order to your chaotic emotions.
Not So Good: With Pisces both of your risk emotional suffocation, and Leo is far too wrapped up in themselves to be bothered with your dramas. Another Scorpio is also probably far too much emotional intensity for one relationship to handle.
SAGITTARIUS
Your Romantic Style: Personal freedom is of paramount importance to you, and you will not tolerate a partner who tries to restrict you in any way. Sexually exuberant, physical attraction is important to you, but you also have an intellectual streak and love a partner who can keep up with you mentally. Sometimes irresponsible, however, you need to take care with joint responsibilities.
Ideal Partners: Sagittarius – you are the perfect foil for one another, inspiring one another to ever greater heights of achievement and adventure – but watch the purse strings. Aquarius respects your freedom and demands freedoms of their own, whilst also enjoying physical and sexual experimentation.
Not So Good: Cancer would try to keep you tied to the home hearth, and Gemini, whilst superficially a good match, will bore you with their ‘jack-of-all-trades-master-of-none’ attitude.
CAPRICORN
Your Romantic Style: Quite careful and cautious in romance, as in everything else, it takes a long time for you to give away your heart. When you do, you are faithful, loyal and responsible, and you value these qualities in your partner too. One of your most appealing qualities is your delightfully wry sense of humour, but you need to be wary of being too rigid in your expectations.
Ideal Partners: Cancer shares your sense of responsibility and can also help you to express your emotions more openly. Virgo will be as fiercely loyal to you as you are to them, and together you can explore new territory in adventure and romance.
Not So Good: Aries rather frightens you with their impulsive and reckless behaviour, whilst Pisces is a mystery to you with their deep depth emotional charges.
AQUARIUS
Your Romantic Style: Independence is so important to you that you may find it difficult to settle into a long-term relationship – your partner therefore needs to be very aware of this and careful not to restrict you. There is a strong romantic streak within you once you have found your partner, but whilst you are still looking you often come across as rather aloof. Very loyal once committed, value intellect more than looks.
Ideal Partners: Gemini enjoys your avant-garde views and brings out the romantic in you, and you are immune to their flirting. Another Aquarius can be an ideal match as you understand one another perfectly and give each other plenty of space.
Not So Good: Cancer and Virgo would both find it hard to cope with your aloofness, whilst Aries would quickly bore you once the superficial attraction had passed.
PISCES
Your Romantic Style: Romantic, dreamy, compassionate and sensitive, you tend to put your loved ones on a pedestal. Very emotional, even little things can trigger tears in your love affairs, and your partners may feel that you need to get a grip on reality. Not overly passionate, you view sex as an extension of romance and therefore are incredibly hurt by infidelities.
Ideal Partners: Libra shares your love of romance and is kind and thoughtful enough not to hurt you. Virgo loves your dreamy nature and, whilst you inspire them, they can help you to cope with the harsher realities of life too.
Not So Good: Aries is too thoughtless in word and deed, whilst Scorpio has enough problems of their own, thank you very much, without bothering with yours! Taurus too does not really have much time for your emotions, whilst you find them over-materialistic and stubborn.
