Aries

(March 21st to April 19th)

He wants an adventurous girlfriend. He wants someone who is up for anything, likes to try new things, and hates feeling like a couch potato. The word he’d use to describe you is “partner in crime”. He’s an alpha male who can come across as if he’s fearless, it’s okay if you aren’t, he just wants you to be open to trying all the things that are important to him. The best way you can complement his personality is to share his core value of viewing life as an exciting adventure with endless possibilities.

Taurus

(April 20th to May 21st)

He wants a laid-back girlfriend. He wants someone who is steady and reliable — you’ll show up when you say you will. More importantly, you won’t cheat on him or betray his trust (the cardinal sin for a Taurus). You can also relate to his calm demeanor and enjoy turning relaxation into an art form along with him: good food, good lighting, a comfortable couch and some quality cuddle time.

Gemini

(May 22nd to June 21st)

He wants a passionate girlfriend. He needs someone who understand how excited he can feel about new ideas and appreciate how fun-loving he is without trying to slow him down or parent him. (Free-spirits are encouraged to apply.) You can complement his silly side by being excited about trivial every day adventures with him. If you can make a routine trip to the grocery store fun, you’re his match.

Cancer

(June 22nd to July 22nd)

He wants the loving girlfriend. He needs someone who is incredibly open and supportive. He can’t be with someone who has a short-temper or is closed-off emotionally — emotional connection is the key to this dude’s heart. If you can love him with your whole heart, embrace his sensitive side, and revel those awesome “being in love” feelings, you might be the one for him.

Leo

(July 23rd to August 22nd)

He wants an admiring girlfriend. Make no mistake — he’s not a sexist and he doesn’t just want arm candy. He just wants someone who is capable of making him feel special, a supportive cheerleader whose compliments are all the more meaningful because she’s so high-quality herself. A smart, put-together, kind girl who also thinks he’s all of those things is a Leo’s ultimate dream.

Virgo

(August 23rd to September 22nd)

He wants an intelligent girlfriend. Virgos don’t suffer fools lightly. They have sky-high standards for themselves, so they are going to hold any potential partner up to a pretty high bar as well. The cardinal sin, here, is to be dumb or lazy. A Virgo wants you to respect their orderly, ambitious life — and hopefully add to it. Complement them by helping them work their “work hard” personality into (at least) a “work hard, play hard” one.

Libra

(September 23rd to October 22nd)

He wants a social butterfly girlfriend. Libras prize their relationships above all else, and so they are attracted to people who are very good at building and maintaining relationships. You should flex how tight you are with your family or how beloved you are among your friend group. He wants to know that you think people are as important as he does and that you can build a tight-knit social group together.

Scorpio

(October 23rd to November 22nd)

He wants a girlfriend who can keep up. You can’t be too sensitive or needy if you’re going to date a Scorpio. They need their freedom and they aren’t afraid to speak their minds. If you can’t keep up, you’re going to be left in the dust. You should have a thick skin and a backbone (and, to be completely honest, a high sex drive). He wants someone who is fiercely an equal.

Sagittarius

(November 23rd to December 21st)

He wants a funny girlfriend. Sagittarians love to laugh and they can light up any room with a smile. An overly serious partner for a Sag would be a no-go — however, if you can make him laugh you can make him do anything. He wants you to be his ride-or-die girl who’s always up for a practical joke or a midnight adventure — as long as there will be a story to tell.

Capricorn

(December 22nd to January 20th)

He wants a classy girlfriend. Capricorns are ambitious and conservative, he likely has a very specific picture of what he wants his life to be like, and he wants to know that you’ll fit into it. He wants an old-fashioned girl who shares his values and will be a tight-knit best friend for him as he pursues his goals.

Aquarius

(January 21st to February 18th)

He wants an open-minded girlfriend. Aquarians are cerebral and eccentric. Your love interest likely has a lot of thoughts and philosophies that are outside of the social norm. He’ll want to know that you can read and think for yourself, and that you’re open to the ideas he’s interested in. If you want to complement him, challenge him — throw out a few of the more outside-of-the-box things you believe in and see what he has to say.

Pisces

(February 19th to March 20th)

He wants an artsy girlfriend. There’s nothing more important to a Pisces than their sweet creative souls. They want to express themselves in whatever medium they choose and it’s important that any potential partner embrace this as well. He’ll admire whatever your creative talent is, so be sure to share it with him early on. If you can be each other’s muses, all the better.
