Make Leo Love Last

Secrets to ensuring you’re with the right person, and vice versa…

Frank, forceful Leo will move heaven and earth for a partner and defend kith and kin through thick and thin. This fixed sign has firm beliefs, so don’t try to change them. Arguing just won’t work! But if you refuse to knuckle under or put up with any nonsense, you can tame your big cat into a domesticated one.

Shower Leo with (sincere) praise and admiration, make your mate understand that he or she is the center of your world and that you’ll always be loyal, and the Lion will commit to you forever—and mean it.

Leo Communication 101

How Leos can bring out their romantic side…

Leo can be one of the most supportive partners around. If the Lion is smitten, he or she will enthusiastically heap applause, accolades, appreciation, and approval on a partner. Leo will lift your spirits when you’re down, fill you with self-confidence when you waver, and brighten your day when clouds gather. You’ll be told how utterly fantastic you are, and you’ll believe it.

But here’s the catch. To make Leo purr with contentment you need to reciprocate the adulation. Stroke the big cat’s ego or the love will disappear like a black panther slipping into the jungle at night.

Want to Date a Virgo?

You better be on this list…

Why You’re Still Single, Virgo

You’re almost perfect Virgo, but…

Try a little introspection if you’re still looking for love.

Are you too nitpicky? Some people are fine with a few imperfections.

Are you a martyr? It’s okay to work hard, but don’t whine about it.

Are you too demanding? Just because you have an endless to-do list doesn’t mean everyone wants every moment filled.

Are you too self-critical? Be careful or others will start to agree with you!

Are you too analytical? Relationships need to be lived, not have their inner workings picked apart.

Are you a worrywart? Just because your date is late doesn’t mean something bad happened!

Are you never satisfied? Sometimes okay is just fine.

Looking for Love, Virgo?

You will find that special someone…

You’re the efficiency expert, remember? If you’re searching for a partner, don’t waste time looking in situations you already know you dislike, such as gigantic gatherings of strangers. Accept invitations to smaller parties, ideally with a good pal or two. When you can talk with an interesting stranger one on one you have a much better chance of finding common interests.  You might not be an avid sports fan but watching a baseball game or tennis match in a stadium or sports bar is leisurely enough to allow plenty of time to get to know one another!

Show the Virgo Man You Care

Be smart but also caring…

Virgo gets a bad rap. Far from prudish, the Virgo guy is sexy and smart (hello Hugh Grant, Sean Connery, Ryan Phillippe, Keanu Reeves, Richard Gere), big-hearted, charming—what’s not to like? Well, perhaps he’s too smart for his own good, the way he overthinks everything to the point of immobility. He can be insecure. And it will take work to get him to open up. Show him you love him and his (real or imagined) flaws. Prove how much you appreciate him with words as well as tokens. Even the smallest loving gesture means the world!

Fun Gifts for Analytical Virgo

Gifts any Virgo would would love…

Looking for gifts that a Virgo would love? Appeal to one of his or her interests with board games, word games like Scrabble, strategy games, or a sport that requires more skill than brawn, like billiards or golf. Virgo is smart and articulate, so you can’t go wrong with books (old school or the e-variety) or a subscription to a specialty periodical. A beautiful leather desk organizer or an exquisite handmade journal would be perfect for all of those deep thoughts and to-do lists. Cooking classes or tickets to an eclectic concert would also rock Virgo’s world!

You’re the Best Partner, Virgo

Your qualities are unmatched…

A Virgo man or woman in the right relationship is a gift from heaven. Your loyalty and devotion know no bounds. There is no task too small or obstacle too high if it means making your partner happy. You just love looking after all the details that less meticulous people let fall between the cracks—from the balanced bank accounts, to the alphabetized spice rack, to the clean and mended clothes. The happily paired Virgo learns to live with the inevitable imperfections in oneself and others, and basks in the glow of love and appreciation.

Get on Sexy Mode, Virgo!

A workout made for you two…

Want to engage in an activity that’s sure to enhance your relationship? (No, not that one!) Take a yoga class with your partner. Touching, with your breaths and heartbeats in sync, you’ll connect like never before! Some instructors offer classes just for couples, which is ideal if one of you is a beginner. Just be careful not to try too hard or attempt positions that are too advanced. Focus on each other (not the mirror!) and stay in the moment. Your sign rules the lower legs, so pair shorts to show off your shapely calves with a long-sleeved tee. Afterward, indulge in a relaxing couple’s massage to ease muscles and sustain the sexy vibe.

‘Too Busy’ for Love, Virgo?

You need to get busy somewhere else…

You say that you want a relationship, but do your actions match your words? You may be so focused on your job or a favorite pastime that you aren’t really devoting all that much time to looking for a mate. Perhaps it has something to do with your love of control. At work, you’re in command. On the dating scene, who knows what could happen! Or you’re so involved in rewriting your latest report that you don’t even come up for air until midnight. Redirect some of that passion, determination, and effort to looking for love!
