The Pros And Cons Of Dating Each Zodiac Sign

Each sign has its own set of personality traits and quirks, giving people from each sign certain attitudes and behaviors they display when dating.

Just like each sign has good traits, they all have some negative ones too. These are the biggest pros and cons of dating each zodiac sign.

Pros Of Dating An Aries

An Aries won't waste your time when it comes to relationships: if they aren't interested, they won't lead you on, and if they're annoyed with you, they'll communicate it to you directly.

Aries can be impulsive and aggressive, meaning that they're quick to jump to conclusions rather than thinking the whole situation through. They also tend to be hard on themselves and might shut you out for periods of time.

Cancers are notorious for having intense mood swings that can be hard to keep up with: one second they're happy and bubbly only for them to be angry moments later, and they get defensive when you try to figure out what's wrong.

Leos aren't exactly sensitive when it comes to other people's feelings, and they can often be jerks to their romantic partners. They'll often dismiss their partner's problems rather than take accountability for what they did.

While Virgos' sensitivity can be nice when it's directed toward you, they can also be really sensitive themselves, and often interpret things as personal attacks. They'll also often doubt your sincerity when you try to compliment them.

Libras hate having to get into conflicts, so they're more likely to ghost you when they lose interest or let little things slide until they explode at you. They're also unlikely to agree to a compromise unless they perceive everything to be equal.

Intensity is a double-edged sword: while it can be fun, it also means that Scorpios are prone to melodrama and can be overwhelming to date. Additionally, Scorpios tend to be vengeful and refuse to forgive others when they feel like they've been wronged.
