One of the weaknesses of the Leo star sign is the lack of self-awareness. A Leo often needs to be first and sometimes, they can't help but be first - even if it's at the expense of other people.
Believe it or not, Leo's biggest turn-on is feeling desired. Leos are so terrific in bed because they're enchanted by seduction—both giving and receiving. Leos purr at the idea of being wanted, which is why sexy tension is so important to this ferocious fire sign.
Who are Leos most compatible with? Leos tend to gravitate towards fellow fixed signs, Scorpio and Aquarius. Scorpios understand Leo's need for loyalty, and they both crave a lot of intensity when they're dating someone.
Leo (July 23 – August 22)
This sign's worst fears are to under-perform and to let people (including themselves) down. Their personal identity, including their confidence level, tends to be located entirely outside themselves. They take in other people's opinions as their own. But this can be a valuable lesson for Leo.
Leo. "Fiery, passionate Leo's love language is definitely physical touch—these lovers need affection to be showered with affection," says Kavanagh. "They also appreciate quality time with their loved ones and words of affirmation, as Leos love to be loved in all ways."
Leo men are attracted to partners who are well-groomed and put together. Bonus points if you have a unique style. Confidence, charisma, and independence are important character traits to a Leo man—they suggest you can be a match for his own ambition and drive. Enthusiasm and creativity are also important.
Ruled by the Sun, Leos enjoy being the center of attention and it becomes rather easy for them to fall in love with a person who gives them what they want—undivided attention. They often fall in love too quickly, which makes it quite common for a Leo to fall in love with the wrong person.
He wants someone reliable and a partner who will pamper him. A Leo man in love is not small-minded, and he will return the compliments, love, and loyalty tenfold. Loyalty is one of the most important virtues for a Leo man, and he would like the love of his dreams to be a loyal partner to him.
YOUR ZODIAC SIGN: LEO
You can't call them flirts, but yes, they love to take the lead. If they have a crush, the other person will know before anyone else does. They are communicative and they hate to beat around the bush. They don't out their heart out there easily, but definitely go all out fawning over their beau.
Leo's Most Toxic Match: Scorpio
Is there a worse match for a Leo than a Scorpio? Probably not. While Scorpios like to spend their days focusing on life's big questions, Leos want a partner who is going to focus on one thing and one thing only: them.
Leos don't feel threatened by other people's success and are pretty secure and content with their lives. They only get jealous, when their loved ones, particularly their partner, don't pay attention to them and instead devote their energies on someone else.
Being the fieriest of the fire signs, Leos are a more flared version of Aries. They will express their anger in the loudest ways, will throw tantrums, call you names and say things that they know will hit you the worst.
It is important for Leos to feel adored and appreciated by their partner. Thus, they are likely to regret ending a relationship with someone who gave them a lot of attention. But this won't happen often. Also, Leos don't change their mind too frequently.
Leos show their love for other Leos by pointing out issues that are important to their lover and helping them solve it. Even more importantly, they show love by trying to back down from a fight. They will do so by staying open to their partner viewpoint even if they don't like it. They will learn to agree to disagree.
Leo's Favorite Body Part: The Heart And Spine
The back just might be where it's at for this fire sign. Next time you go in for a hug with your loved-up Leo, linger a while, running your fingers up and down their spine or in little circles.
It's all about the back. A Leo loves having hands wrapped around them, back massages, and soft touches up the spine. Any back action will get a Leo's endorphins going, including around the shoulders.
You can get carried away easily because Leo's are the masters of the flirting game. And let us tell you, Leos also make for good partners. They are genuine and won't play with your feelings.
Leo: Someone who laughs at their jokes
They are also incredibly generous and love when someone reciprocates this energy towards them. A Leo wants to feel like they're being seen and appreciated, so showering them with compliments and telling them how funny they are is sure to get their heart racing.
Leos are known to be very ambitious and have a strong desire for power and authority. In relationships, they look for partners who support and encourage their dreams and don't hold them back. When in pursuit of a goal, Leos can be quite relentless and aggressive. So, if you love your Leo, learn to give 'em some space.
