How You Really Say «I Love You» Based On Your Zodiac Sign

You may not even know it, but the way you say «be careful» when someone leaves or the way you make some extra pasta for your significant other is a nonverbal form of «I love you.»

We don’t always have to verbalize our feelings, especially since we have to protect them. It’s good not to go through life handing out intense words because others may take them too seriously or others may use those feelings to use you.

Because we all have different experiences and stories, our ways of saying «I love you» vary. Even in us, throughout life, our way of expressing affection changes, but our zodiac sign has a lot to do with the way we express love.

AQUARIUS (January 20 – February 18): The eccentric

It can be hard to tell if Aquarius loves you at first because they can seem so detached and unapproachable, but when they’re in love all their attention goes to their partner. All they want is to find the right person, which can make you feel like you’re being questioned or being too serious.

«When you know, you know» is really the only way to describe how you can know that an Aquarius is in love with you.

They take love very seriously and want someone who can be as intellectual and eccentric as they are. But when they love you, they will show it by laughing at all your terrible jokes and sharing all their favorite books and places with you (a very intimate gesture for them).

ARIES (March 21-April 19): The Single

Aries is straightforward in almost everything they do, and love is no exception. They approach every situation with logic, so if they openly tell you that they love you, it comes from a very deep place.

If they’re not saying «I love you,» they’re joking with you. They love having a partner who can keep up with their playful banter. When they’re not making fun of you, Aries texts you good morning; his favorite way of showing that he cares SO much about you.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): The serious

When a Cancer is looking for love, what they are REALLY looking for is an equal. Cancer is extremely attracted to someone who can stand up for themselves and have their own ambitions outside of the relationship. When a Cancer is in love, he becomes more protective of his partner. This means making sure you have a good day, cooking dinner for yourself, or making sure they’re comfortable watching Netflix on the couch (gross, but very cute).

Cancer is also great for not having to say «I love you» and still make sure you know it (as if their actions weren’t obvious enough). When a Cancer feels like you two are getting serious, he’ll want you to meet his family; he just feels like the natural next step for them.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 20-Jan. 19): The intelligent

When Capricorn is looking for love, what they really want is a best friend.

They are not worried about finding a passionate lover or a free spirit; they prefer to have someone who wants the same things they do. Capricorn loves family and is always planning for the future.

When a Capricorn is in love with you, he will try to impress you with his intelligence.

They pride themselves on being logical, so while first dates may seem a bit stiff, they’ll soon start to loosen up.

Look for signs that he wants your relationship to go further, like taking him to meet your family or remembering little things about you.

GEMINI (May 21 – June 20): The Intimate

Geminis show love in their words without having to say «I love you.»

Geminis can be a bit of a flirt, which means you might not be the only one they text at first (harsh, but true!).

Being social creatures and hopeless romantics can be a dangerous combination, but somehow Geminis pull it off very well.

They can jump from lover to lover pretty quickly, but if you really want to know if they love you, listen to how their conversation changes when the two of you talk.

Instead of perfunctory questions, Geminis will start to get more personal and ask more intimate questions. If a Gemini is really in love with you, they will let you rant without interrupting. Geminis love to hear you talk, honestly.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): The Confident

Leo’s confidence and energy play an important role in their relationships. Leos love to have a lot of freedom in (virtually) everything they do, but when they fall in love they stop thinking about themselves so much and start spending more time with you.

A Leo hates being tied down in relationships, but you can definitely tell they’re in love with you when they’re satisfied with cuddling at home instead of wanting to go out.

They highly value love, which means always making time for the two of you to spend time together.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): The Honest

Libra has goals for itself; They don’t have time to wonder if you’re the one. They love being friends with everyone, so it can be hard to tell if they love you or if you’re just another one of their friends. One of his greatest gifts is being more intimate with you; If you respect Libra as much as they respect you, your relationship will go far.

When a Libra is in love with you, they will make more of an effort to be honest with you instead of treating you like everyone else. They will be more open to sharing their personal data because they know how special you are.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): The Emotional

Pisces is a shy and emotional individual, so they tend to treat their heart like glass.

The worst thing that can happen to them is that they get their heart broken (even though they love being in love), so it can seem like they’re being very secretive about how they feel about you.

When a Pisces is in love with you, he will show it through the tenderness with which he cares for you.

This means sending cute text messages throughout the day, giving each other little kisses, or greeting you when you arrive with a warm, comforting tea.

The little things always count the most in a relationship with Pisces.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 19): The Adventurer

Sagittarius is an adventurous sign and falling in love is just another career path for them.

They tend to lose their inhibitions when it comes to falling in love, which can make it seem like it’s never serious for them.

They are more attracted to those who allow them to keep their freedom instead of tying them down in a relationship.

When a Sagittarius loves you, they always want to make you laugh, no matter how corny their jokes sound. The next time he wants to travel or try something new with you, you’ll know he’s wrapped around your finger.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): The Seducer

Scorpio men are very passionate and seductive. They love love as long as it comes with sex and drama.

They can be very intense with people, which can scare loved ones away pretty quickly.

Scorpio can be very stubborn at times, which makes couples who are quiet be perfect for them.

Instead of saying «I love you», she will treat you like a goddess: infatuated glances, intense kissing sessions and everything you want in bed.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): The passionate

If there’s one thing Taurus loves more than food, it’s passionate love. Taurus is a fan of love and they are known to fall in love quickly. If you are ever confused whether he loves you or not, pay attention to his actions.

Taurus enjoys the traditional side of love, which means be the one who pays for everything (and refusing to listen to you every time you try to) or just open the door for you. They’ll even (reluctantly) share their food with you, which they normally don’t, but to your boo there’s always an extra bite they’re saving for you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): The Shy

A Virgo can be hard to pin down when it comes to love. They hate feeling vulnerable and letting someone love them unconditionally can be a bit scary.

Patience is a quality that will get you far with a Virgo, so be prepared for a bit of shyness at the start of your relationship.

Because Virgo is not good at expressing love, being patient makes a world of difference to them.

When a Virgo falls in love with you, they will go to greater lengths to put your needs before theirs. They love subtle actions above all.
