Leo women love to be admired. Win her by loving what's unique about her style, her story, how she lives. Show up on time or face a reckoning. Respect is big with her, and being overlooked or underestimated isn't soon forgotten.
Be romantic.
Once a Leo falls for you, they can be quite passionate about how they show their feelings. As you two get closer, do the same for him. Give him dazzling and thoughtful gifts, profess your feelings in bold declarations, and plan lavish dinners and dates to woo him.
"The way to a Leo's heart is through their ego. Flatter them, make bold advances towards them, show them off proudly and let them show you off," says Comet. Be sure to give a few compliments and let them be dominant, taking the lead in situations (especially in bed).
A Leo loves a good compliment when it comes from the heart. “They want employees who can acknowledge the hard work that they put in regularly, as well as their expertise and leadership,” says Lettman. “A little flattery when it feels right can go a long way.”
"Leo is a proud sign," she says. "If their partner does something to make them look dumb, especially publicly, this is unforgivable for them." As a fixed sign, Leo also values loyalty. So cheating or any other sort of betrayal will wound both their heart and their ego.
A Leo in love is very bold and will leave no doubt in the mind of their loved one about their feelings. Extremely forward and self-assured in nature, they can come across as aggressive in personal relationships. However, the positive in this is that there are no games played by Leos.
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.
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. Scorpio is very black and white about who they want to get to know and let into their life, and Leo usually feels the same.
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."
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.
To turn Leo right off, always be around. Respond to every message on the dot, always be on time, and never have other plans. This is the fastest way for Leo to quickly devalue you. After all, you're providing no excitement to appease their sense of adventure.

YOUR ZODIAC SIGN: LEO
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. They love to be wooed after they take the first few steps.
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.
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.
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.
Leos can be pretty self-absorbed, but they'll focus on someone they like. He'll spend time getting to know you because he wants to be the best partner and make you happy. When a Leo likes you, he'll listen intently when you talk and ask you a ton of open-ended questions.
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.
Leos are known for being possessive and territorial.
Even small stuff, like you smiling at another guy or innocently chatting up someone he doesn't know at the bar, can make a Leo feel jealous. Leos can be aggressive if they feel threatened, so tread lightly. They aren't afraid to cause a scene!
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: Monophobia or fear of being left alone
You love it when the whole world revolves around you and the spotlight is all over you. Being ignored or left alone makes you anxious and uncomfortable.
Generally, the most compatible signs for Leo friendships and romantic relationships are fellow fire signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) as they'll match their passion and heat. Air signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) also have dynamic, fast-paced energy and could work well for a Leo.
Leo turn ons
The sound of applause. I say this literally, because to be applauded is the ultimate in terms of positive attention, but, really, any compliments, flattery, or positive attention makes Leo happy. You're a big proud lion at heart, and you love to be loved.
