Leo (July 23 - Aug 22) Leos are constantly seeking praise and appreciation, so if you're a person who has no issue affirming others, you may find yourself latched onto a Leo who's clinging on for dear life. Leos are also known to be quite prideful, so they may be hanging on to protect their ego.
For them, if you are not telling them just how special they are, chances are that the lion sign will take off for a hunt. Which is why Leos can come off as demanding and clingy in a relationship.
Leos can be needy and moody, and they generally require an exhausting amount of reassurance. A Leo lover will want to spend lots of time with you, especially in the honeymoon stage when you first begin dating seriously.
Leo's need their space and you have to understand this as a basic characteristic to have if you want them in your life long term. Clingy folks stay away. Leo's like strong and independent people else quickly lose interest and respect for you.
He's physically affectionate with you.
You might notice your Leo will go in for a longer hug or playfully swat you on the arm to make a point. Physical touch is his way of connecting with you and letting you know how he feels. Match your Leo's level of attention and affection.
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.
A Leo man loves being caressed, touched and he expresses his emotions freely and without inhibitions. He will not at all hesitate to shower you with affection when you are together. So, it may be a casual peck on your cheek or hugs and cuddles; you can expect a lot of PDA from your Leo man.
Positive comments and praises are a massive power-up for Leo men since these feed their lion-sized pride. Give this man your attention so that he notices you if you want him to shift his focus to you. Positive reinforcement is what Leo men depend on, so make them enjoy a little pampering.
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.
A Leo man will not shy away from holding hands or kissing.
In fact, Leo loves to touch. He's one of the most outgoing and affectionate signs of the zodiac, so he's into PDA with someone he loves. It's his way of showing that he's totally relaxed and comfortable around you.
Leos love the thrill of the chase so give him space to make a move. He can't chase you if you're always around, so don't be in all of his social circles. Wait for him to contact you instead of texting or calling him.
"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."
04/13Leo. Next in line are the affectionate Leos. They're all into PDA, holding hands, cuddling and mostly every romantic intimate thing. They can snuggle up anywhere if they feel like it and never miss a chance of cuddling their partner.
The lion is another sign of the Zodiac that can become overly obsessive. They are demanding of their partner's whole attention, and if they don't get it, they become worried and restless.
They're extremely loyal in their relationships and may shower the other person with attention. At times, they may even be a bit possessive, and they will expect the same amount of effort from their partner in return.
Loyal to a fault
Leos are basically as loyal as they come. Once committed, they will stick by your side no matter what. They make for extremely encouraging and supportive partners. While dating Leos, make sure to reciprocate the love and enjoy romantic attention they shower you with.
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.
Being clingy is a surefire way to drive a Leo man away.
Try not to bombard your Leo guy with text messages and phone calls, and let him hit you up first from time to time. He'll appreciate that you let him do his own thing, and he might even miss spending time with you.
As a Leo lover man, you are most compatible with women who love to be the center of attention and want to be the center of your life. The most compatible signs are Libras, Sagittarius, and Aquarians. A good match will be drawn in by your magnetic personality and natural leadership skills.
Leo's love compliments, physical touch, and spending time together. Always let him know you care about him. This doesn't mean that you should smother him with affection. Just be loving and he will be drawn to your affectionate nature.
As a fire sign, Leos love spontaneity and variety, even in their sex lives. This is a sign that constantly seeks new horizons—or with sex, new positions. To be completely irresistible to a Leo man, keep him on his toes and be the sexual partner that he can never quite predict.
Cons: Leos aren't known for their sensitivity regarding other people's feelings, and without meaning to, they can be kind of a jerk. When they hurt you, it's hard to get them to take responsibility for it.
Welcome praise and compliments from others in earshot of your lion and engage in very light non-committal social flirting. But don't go nuts—making Leo upset or jealous in front of others will humiliate them and dash your chances of being anything other than social acquaintances.
