Everyone has their own way of showing affection, and that goes for every zodiac sign.

Here’s a sign-by-sign list, including Cancer, Libra, and Aries in love and how each of the zodiac signs shows affection.

1. How Aries Shows Affection:

To show you that they care, Aries will tease you until it becomes annoying. One surprising way that Aries shows affection is by getting into a fight, not a physical fight, but a playful war of words, especially that of an Aries man’s behavior in love. They love to joke around.

They’re also known as fantastic hugs, so the Aries love language is by far physical contact and another common way of showing affection. Aries likes to be touched above the neck, hair, ears, cheeks, head, and nape. However, Aries will never go out of their way to be clingy because they know what they want and most of the time they are very confident.

2. How Taurus Shows Affection:

Tauruses are all about incredibly thoughtful gifts. They show affection by preparing a delicious meal for you and sharing it with you. Do you know that when someone is really listening to you, you know that they care?

That’s a Taurus, they are fascinated by what you have to say.

3. How Gemini Shows Affection:

If a Gemini is always trying to make you laugh or check to see if you’re laughing so he can laugh too, then that’s his way of showing affection.

They also like to share their cool ideas and are constantly touching your hands, arms and even your hair. They like to have a physical (albeit platonic) connection as well as an emotional one.

4. How Cancer shows affection:

Cancers will give you a random compliment with no prompts that will make you feel amazing. While they talk about what happened at work today, they’ll make you a creative and delicious snack, like a caramel apple brownie to show you care.

Also, they always make sure to have things you like in their house, in case you come to visit.

5. How Leo shows affection:

While Cancers give random compliments, Leos go overboard with them. They like things big and flashy, and that goes with showing that they care. They will tickle you until you can’t take it anymore.

What is an important sign that a Leo has a soft spot for you? They make time for you. Leos are very active and often have a solid reserve, so if their hours are open for lunch or coffee with you, they really care.

6. How Virgo Shows Affection:

You know how you thought it was a little weird that your Virgo friend would alphabetize your spices and order your books by height? Well, this is how Virgos show affection: they organize themselves for you.

They are also incredibly sweet and will hold your hand when you need support at the doctor or when you watch a scary movie.

Virgos are also great sharers and are perfectly happy to share half of their smoothie with you, as long as you both have your own glasses (they can be a bit of a pain in the ass).

7. How Libra Shows Affection:

Libras are pretty nice people, but for people, they care about being extra nice. They will most likely give you a nickname as a way of showing their affection.

Since they like a bit of authority, they can show their affection by wrapping their arms around you in a big hug from behind.

8. How Scorpio Shows Affection:

While a Scorpio won’t look directly at you, they will watch you intently, not in a creepy way, but in a way where you can tell they find you very interesting. If they care about you, they will share things that they won’t tell just anyone.

When it seems like things are getting too intense, a Scorpio will wink at you to break the tension. They are passionate but still have a great sense of humor.

9. How Sagittarius Shows Affection:

If a Sagittarius invites you to travel with them, that amounts to yelling, «I really like you.» Sagittarians express their affection by calling you almost every day and giving you endless back rubs.

They’ll listen to your rants about friends and co-workers who annoy you, and then offer valuable advice. Sagittarians have your back in more ways than one.

10. How Capricorn Shows Affection:

Capricorns will loosen their normal reserve and warm up to people they care about. They will remember what you like at your favorite restaurant and bring it to you when you are home.

They show their affection thoughtfully and thoughtfully. They will also take selfies of you when you least expect it.

11. How Aquarius Shows Affection:

You won’t be in the dark if an Aquarius cares about you. They will show it to you all the time by planting kisses all over your face, sending endless texts and cute notes, warm hugs, and sometimes doing something completely out of the box.

Who knew that building her an entertainment center perfectly sized to fit in the corner by the window was exactly what she needed?

12. How Pisces Shows Affection:

When Pisces cares about you, you will get their bright smile in full force throughout the day. They’ll laugh at your jokes and playfully shove you when you say something extra funny.

Another way to show that you mean something to them? A Pisces will make you art. It could be a painting, a poem, a song, some kind of craft, or a cleverly wrapped gift.
